Save money purchasing used textbooks online

August 28th, 2009

San Diego, CA ( QualityPressReleaser) August 28, 2009  – Recent government and industry studies indicate that college textbook prices over the past 20 years have increased more than 200%, or twice the rate of inflation.  This is the retail price offered by the textbook publishers.  “The same textbooks can actually be purchased online for up to 90% less,” said Bobby Brannigan, CEO, ValoreBooks.com , a major used online textbook website.

The Internet has revolutionized the used college textbook market by allowing the development of efficient online marketplaces to connect buyers and sellers from around the world.

At ValoreBooks.com, for example, a leading student online marketplace for used textbooks , a used copy of “Chemistry: The Central Science” eleventh edition by Brown and Lemay, which lists for $194.40, was recently available for $62.97.  The same book was offered on Amazon.com for $119.95.

Often, a book that is no longer used at one school is still used at another.  With an online marketplace, a student can easily list their book online and sell it within days to a student at the other end of the world.  So, instead of a textbook sitting in the back of a college student’s closet, it can be sold and reused.

The average college textbook has a life of three to four years before a new edition is produced.  With each year that a textbook is in use, more used copies become available.  Considering the fact that college and university enrollments are increasing rapidly, especially in the recession, along with the fact that at least 25% of students decide to keep their textbooks after their classes end, the supply of used textbooks may not meet national demand until year three or so.

So, what does this mean for college students looking to save money by purchasing used textbooks?  Figure out which books you need and buy them early.  For the first three years of a textbook’s life there will not be enough used copies available to meet the needs of students worldwide.  So, if you want to save big bucks this semester on used textbooks be sure to buy them as quickly as possible. To make the most of your purchases remember to sell your textbooks back as soon as the semester ends rather than waiting.

GVK Biosciences to Present at the 238th ACS National Meeting

August 28th, 2009

GVK Biosciences Private Limited (GVK BIO), Asia’s leading Contract Research Organization, will make a presentation ACS National Meeting. The talk will be given by GVK BIO’s Head of Informatics and Senior Vice at the 238th President, Dr. Jagarlapudi Sarma.

Titled, GOSTAR: GVK BIO online structure activity relationship database: Data and its utility, the presentation focuses on the GVK BIO Knowledge Databases and the creation of a web-based User Interface.

GVK BIO is well known for the development of Knowledge databases of chemical entities (~4 million compounds) with structure activity relationships. Information relating chemical structure, biological target, in vitro and in vivo assay for efficacy/pharmacodynamics, clinical as well as Pharmacokinetics and toxicity is well integrated in different databases wherein the source information has been covered from a variety of Journals articles and patents for a variety of target families. Many pharmaceutical companies have been using these databases for different applications and/or modeling studies.

GVK BIO has integrated all its individual databases into one single database, GOSTAR which has a very good web-based UI for different types of online queries. In the process of integration of all individual databases into one data model, all the data has been standardized and necessary taxonomy and ontology were used to handle the integrated data. Any query will extract the data from all databases whether they feature in discovery, development or marketed drug space. Further, one can analyze the retrieved molecules for any off-target activity as well as other indications. A number of descriptors can be generated using the online available tools and the data can be analyzed for various models. Tools have been developed to study and to visualize the chemical, biological and Therapeutic indication space as well as company related information. Further tools were developed to filter the data based on chemical, pharmacological or toxicity filters and help the research process for better drug discovery. We will be discussing some case studies on the usefulness of the database in the drug discovery.

New Software May Make Small Investors Millionaires

August 13th, 2009

Highland Heights, OH ( Qualitypressreleaser ) August 13, 2009 – Protraderforex—announces Destiny 3.33, a home PC version of forex trading software that doubles investor money every year.  The concept is if you start with just $200 then doubled it you would have $400.  Do that 14 times and you would have $3,276,800

Rich Henry, President of Protraderforex says,  “Now that 73 percent of homes in the USA have computers we need to put them to work.  Not playing video games, but making people money.  For the first time, anyone that knows how to use a home computer can profit directly from it.”

Everyday more than 2 trillion dollars are traded in the forex market as compared to just 50 billion for the stock market.  The problem is that 95% of people lose 100% of their initial investment money trying. The 5% that do make money are staggeringly rich.   Now it is possible to be one of the lucky 5 percent.

A typical small investor has limited funds available for trading.  So they look to leverage their money in high-risk instruments like penny stocks. Buy for 1 penny and hope it goes to a dollar.  This rarely ever happens.  However, trading on the forex market gives the small investor just as much if not more leverage, which he can use to his advantage.

The forex market gives the investor the chance to double his money continuously. This is possible by the amount of leverage available.  A typical forex account has 1:100 leverage.  Some have 1:200 and higher.  This means that for every dollar invested you are controlling 100 dollars.  A small move in the price will result in a large profit.

Software that could help anyone profit in this market has been highly sought after for years. It is now possible.  The new software also known as an expert advisor, will start opening and closing trades all day and night as the forex market operates 24 hours a day. The winning formula in trading this market is just a set of equations, which a computer can easily solve. Using mathematical principles, a high probability set of trades can be opened and then closed for a profit daily.  When a trade closes the money is added to the account balance.

As the account balance grows the software compounds the profit.  Compounding of profits is one of the more difficult problems to solve for the average investor.  The software does this automatically.  Not losing your money is just as important as making money to a successful investor.  Account protection is always enabled which protects an investor account from an unexpected shift.

All of this is done using a typical home computer, with a broadband connection preferably.  To get started, the investor needs only to open a forex trading account with a minimum of $2000 deposit and start the Destiny 3.33 software, which is totally free.

Complete details including, performance, trading strategy and data for months of trading can be viewed at the Protraderforex.com website.  To get started visit http://www.protraderforex.com You can open up a live trading account and get the free software from there.

Protraderforex is a cutting edge technology software development and manufacturing company located in Highland Heights, OH.  Protraderforex is a leader in automated trading expert advisor software.

Discountmugs.com Sees Signs of Recovery from Recession

August 13th, 2009

Miami, FL ( QualityPressReleaser ) August 13, 2009 – Discountmugs.com announced today that it is seeing signs of recovery from the recession.  The promotional products company has seen a big change in sales since July 2009, where customers are now placing large orders whereas, in the beginning of the year, would only place small orders when they did place an order.  This change, according to Discountmugs.com, shows a marked decrease in the recession as far as the promotional products industry is concerned.

The company has also noticed a difference in the frequency of sales.  Customers, in the beginning of 2009, were very reluctant to place any orders at all.  Now, they are eager to place their advertising dollars in promotional products.  The company credits this to their customers’ awareness that promotional products work better than any other form of advertising, including television, radio, and print advertisements.  On the whole, Discountmugs.com sees that business is getting better for everyone.

Discountmugs.com has also seen a trend in what customers are purchasing.  Promotional BPA free water bottles seems to be the item of preference among customers.  The reason for this is two-fold: Customers want to provide health-conscientious products to their own customers and they want to give away products that are eco-friendly.  This is because in today’s society just about everyone is health conscientious and they will only use products that will benefit their health.  BPA free water bottles is the answer to that desire.  Everyone is drinking more water, they are exercising and need to stay hydrated, and they don’t want BPA leaching into their water like it does with plastic bottles.  For the environmentally-conscientious, BPA free stainless steel and aluminum water bottles are the answer.  These eco-friendly water bottles are replacing plastic bottles because of the concern over the billions of plastic bottles that are filling up landfills.

Discountmugs.com, in addition to seeing the trend with BPA free water bottles, is seeing that their customers have become very selective about what they order.  They want promotional products that their customers will use and like, things that will help their customers remember them.  Many of Discountmugs.com’s customers ask customer service for advice and tips.  They want to know the trends of promotional products and they want to be one step ahead of everyone else.

Seeing a difference in the way customers are ordering promotional products is a great indicator that a lull in the recession is beginning.  In the past month, Discountmugs.com as a company has been able to take a deep breath and finally let it go.  It is clear, to Discountmugs.com, that businesses are overcoming the effects of the recession one promotional product at a time.
