No Sweat: Leader in High Tech Auto Sealing Now Makes Life More Comfortable in Chicken Coops, Too

Ann Arbor, MI (PRWEB) June 14, 2012

The company that keeps tens of millions of automobile interiors quiet and dry is also making life more comfortable in a much different environment: chicken coops. Jyco Sealing Technologies, a world leader in the sealing systems for car doors, moveable windows and engine compartments, announced today that it is supplying exhaust fan seals for poultry and egg production facilities.

The Jyco seal, which is made from an extruded rubber-plastic compound called TPV, replaces rubber seals that fatigue, discolor and cannot be recycled. According to Jyco, the new seals answer industry demands for reliable performance, increased durability, and improved aesthetics.

Airflow is extremely important to livestock production, says John McGovern, manager of Jycos Industrial Products Division. Comfortable birds eat better and produce more eggs, and the exhaust system is critical to the comfort of that environment. Excessive airflow can increase the mortality rate among young birds. Too little airflow will make it too hot and reduce the birds weight and egg productivity.

The new TPV exhaust fan seals last longer, conserve energy, cost less, and wont discolor. The old seals were rubber, which would fatigue and look nasty. In any application to do with food, you want everything to be as clean, tidy and consistent as possible.

Jyco TPV seals are better for the environment before, during and after their installation. The company processes its TPV without particulate or VOC emissions, and production scrap is directly recyclable. The new fan seals are made in part using http://www.jycosealingtechnologies.com/en/jygreen.php, technology that Jyco pioneered in 2007 to reclaim rubber from used tires and reprocess it into high performance extruded TPV sealing systems. And if the exhaust fan is ever replaced, Jycos seal can be recycled.

Jyco is headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and has manufacturing plants in Canada, Mexico and China. Jyco is the only supplier to have earned a Corporate TS/ISO/16949/9000 certification for Design, Testing, and Manufacturing of TPV seals.

Marinus Restaurant Makes Waves with New Design/Culinary Experience

Carmel, CA (PRWEB) June 17, 2012

The stars are aligned for Bernardus Lodge’s signature restaurant – Marinus – to jump start a gravitational pull toward Carmel, Calif., and the kitchens of Chef Cal Stamenov. May 26 marked the debut of the award-winning restaurant fresh off a massive retool of both the interior design and culinary direction. Using the natural surroundings and artisans for inspiration, the newly minted restaurant has transformed its Old World charm into a vibrant, stylish and decidedly relaxed setting more suited to Stamenov’s style of cuisine.

Set on 26 acres of lush vineyards and swaying English lavender, Bernardus Lodge is a luxury hotel that is a study in gracious wine country estate living. The new interior design curated by Charlie Akwa of New York’s The Silver Peacock takes an outside-in approach, playing off the view through a wine glass: slender olive trees, sumptuous lavender, sweeping grapevines – all set against a classic Carmel sky. The look evokes an elegant yet relaxed feel.

Set against a warm backdrop, natural fabrics from Italy and Austria adorn the hand-crafted chairs, windows and dining tables in shades of sage and lavender, offset with burgundy and olive overtones. Table lighting has been reconfigured to spotlight Stamenov’s cuisine paired with the warm glow of the chandeliers. In the kitchen, the coveted four-seat Chef’s Table and nearby 12-seat Magnum Room will also debut a fresh interior design.

Few chefs can claim the toolbox Stamenov draws from: six organic acres stocked with produce and exotic spices; 250 varieties of fruit-bearing trees, bushes and vines; a local cache of foragers and fishermen; and veritable “A” list of top-shelf mentors – Alain Ducasse, Pierre Gagnaire, Masa Koboiashi, Jean-Louis Palladin and Michel Richard. Blending classical techniques with an eye to sustainability, Stamenov’s new menu reflects the essence of this enviable larder, rendered to a slow and methodical reduction.

Today’s fixation on foraging is old news at Marinus. The vegetable-forward “Farm & Foraged” a la carte menu delivers a delicate wild watercress and avocado salad with shaved branch celery, Meyer lemon confit and Australian finger lime for gluten-free diets, as well as entrees, including black chanterelle risotto, and caramelized onion and Swiss chard tortellini with green garlic, blond morels and grilled spring onions. The “Spring” menu puts a new spin on farm-to-fork with a 100-pace walk to one of three expanded organic gardens. From Buddaha’s hand citron to bronze fennel and frais du bois – not to mention Stamenov’s own stash of chickens – the menu spotlights this summer’s top rock stars, including Monterey Bay wild king salmon with English peas and celery root pur

Aberdeen Releases its New Web-based GUI that Makes it Easy to Identify and Locate Specific Hard Drives in an Array

Santa Fe Springs, CA (PRWEB) June 09, 2012

Adding, removing, or replacing a hard drive typically rearranges the list, says Yuval Bymel, R&D engineer at Aberdeen. These hard drive changes make it impossible to have a label on the system showing the correct order of the drives at any given time. Under ideal conditions, this may be an adequate solution. But when a drive fails, or if it completely disappears from that list, there is no easy way to identify the slot in which that drive resides.

To help data center and IT managers overcome this hard drive hassle, Aberdeen built its Z-Series line of scalable storage products with its proprietary Web-based GUI that makes it easy to not only identify the hard drive, but also pinpoint its exact location in the array. This GUI goes above and beyond the traditional ZFS system to make hard drive swaps or fixes quicker and easier.

Scalable Storage Products

Aberdeens Z-Series is a line of scalable storage products designed to be customized to an enterprises needs. Whether an enterprise needs to store a few terabytes of data or as much as a petabyte or more, the Z-Series platform can handle it. Aberdeen also made sure these solutions would be ready for future use and offers 10Gb Ethernet or 8Gb Fibre connectivity to the storage solutions as an optional add-on.

The GUI built into Aberdeens Z-Series line of solutions creates an accurate graphical representation of the entire array, letting administrators see the physical location of a servers hard drives without manually searching through the array. When an admin clicks an individual drive, the GUI shows its location on the server itself as well as its physical location within the array. And the GUI will also take any changes an admin has made into account. You can rest assured the GUI matches the servers hard drive slot label and retains that order no matter which drives you use, how many you have, or even if you have to replace a failed drive, Bymel says.

The Z-Series GUI also lets administrators select which drive they want to replace while keeping all of the hard drives in the correct order. An admin can even rearrange the order at any given time or move the drives to another enclosure. Regardless of how the admin chooses to arrange or manage the drives, the Z-Series GUI will keep up and provide the same identification and location information based on the new configuration.

Easier To Use

Aberdeens addition of the Web-based GUI serves to make the Z-Series even easier to use in the data center. The platform is scalable enough to support a wide range of storage needs and can scale to as much as a petabyte of storage or more because the GUI makes it easier to locate, swap out, or move hard drives. Regardless of how large or small an enterprises storage needs, Aberdeen can help with a solution that will relieve hard drive headaches.







San Francisco Custom Home Builder Makes it Personal

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 15, 2012

A popular home remodeling trend currently being seen across the US is home customization. Home customizing moves beyond home remodeling and replacing outdated fixtures. Customizing requires working with an architect or designer to design unique changes to fit a homeowners personality reflected in the home.

Owner of Bischoff Design Build, Zac Bischoff is taking notice, Designers come out with new trends every year, what they consider to be in style. It is best for homeowners to select what fulfills their individual needs and desires, and outlives current design trends, making their home personal.

Bischoff Design recently completed a custom home remodel for a couple in Berkeley Hills. We were contacted by some homeowners after we completed remodeling their sons house. They had recently purchased a home in Berkeley Hills and wanted renovation work done along with room additions, said Zac.

Bischoff worked with the couple to design and draft tailor-made remodeling plans. He then gutted the entire house and built a second story addition for two offices and a half bath. Pine was used throughout the entire house to deliver a natural feel. Bischoffs team then created and applied a stain that brought the wood to life. The same pine was used to build bookcases that were installed throughout the home as well as custom closets built for the master bedroom. Bischoff helped the homeowners achieve a personal style for their remodel, which is now reflected in every room of the house including the modern stairways and uniquely designed entrances.

Additional distinct features added to the home could be found in the kitchen. Bischoff designed new custom kitchen cabinets and installed a modern, bright red backsplash. The master bathroom was remodeled and updated using modern tile and block glass to bring in light, along with red and white tiles for the flooring. The clients incorporated hand made tiles from their grandchildren in some areas of the bathrooms for a unique and personal touch, said Zac.

The living room was also remodeled and panoramic windows were added to enhance the view and let in natural light. The basement was retrofitted, for a studio apartment with a full bath and plenty of living space. We are very proud of our work on this project and the clients are very happy with their newly updated and uniquely personal designs, said Zac.

Zac Bischoff has worked for 18 years in the building industry and studied architecture at UC Berkeley, giving him the ability to design and draft plans for his projects. Bischoff Design Build specializes in foundation work, retrofitting, seismic remodeling, building additions and new construction. He utilizes sustainable building practices and does no outsourcing.
