A recent national survey on menopause reveals
that two thirds of American women do not visit
their doctors to discuss menopause symptoms. For
the millions of American women who enter menopause
annually, a simple self-diagnostic urine test
device can now allow them to accurately check
for the onset of menopause in the privacy of their
own home. MenocheckTM, the first over-the-counter,
at-home menopause indicator test, is now available
nationwide at Rite-Aid, Walgreens, Longs Drugs,
and many other grocery and drug stores.

Email and chat
are quickly becoming the primary means of
communications between children today. Until now,
parents did not have the means to know with whom
their children were having on-line conversations
with or, what they are talking about. It is clear
now that this lack of information has proven to be
very dangerous to our children. choozmail is the
only and definitive solution giving parents the
opportunity of full control over their children's
email and chat use.

Technology
Makes Powered Gates Safer
|
Powered gates not only help
keep us secure, they’ve become a lot safer to
use. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission, more than two thousand people each
year are treated in hospital emergency rooms for
injuries due to gates that reversed only after
they hit an automobile or person. Now, a company
in Florida called Invisa has developed a technology
that builds an invisible, non-contact safety and
security field precisely where it is needed. The
sensor, called InvisaShield, moves with the gate
and detects a person or car before actually making
contact.

Updating
America's Water Grid |
The Blackout of 2003 and the
failure of our “3rd world country” power grid
may have shed some light on another challenge
facing this country. According to the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), our nation's water grid
and waste water infrastructure is deteriorating
due to gross under investment over the past few
decades. One of the few companies with proven
technology designed to address both the economic
and environmental aspects of rebuilding the water
grid is called HydroFlo.

We
have smoke on board! We can't see anything!

At least once every day, a
pilot somewhere must make an unscheduled landing
because of smoke in the cockpit. Smoke from a
fire, short-circuit, or smoldering mechanical
failure can cause pilots to lose control of their
aircraft, turning a manageable emergency into
a deadly crash. The solution for this problem
exists and regulators are now considering requiring
it on airlines.
