New Report on OLED Encapsulation Materials, Sees OLED Lighting a Key Driver

NanoMarkets estimates that OLED encapsulation technologies generate revenues nearing one billion ($US) before the end of the decade.

Glen Allen, VA, October 19, 2011 - Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets announces the release of its latest market report on OLED materials titled, “Markets for OLED Encapsulation – 2011.” In the report NanoMarkets sees big opportunities for makers of OLED encapsulation products as OLED lighting achieves market volumes starting in 2015. As a result NanoMarkets estimates that OLED encapsulation technologies generate revenues nearing one billion ($US) before the end of the decade.

Details about the report are available at:

http://www.nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/markets_for_oled_encapsulation_materials_2011

Growth in encapsulation is consistent with NanoMarkets other OLED materials forecasts, which predict substantial overall growth in several important OLED sub-sectors. First, small, rigid OLED displays are now widely commercially available and expected to continue to expand, principally in smartphone and other mobile computing displays. Second, the OLED TV market is finally poised to take off within the next few years, as display manufacturers launch newer, bigger models with better value propositions for customers. And most importantly, the emerging OLED lighting industry is on an upward trajectory that will significantly increase the size of the addressable market for OLED materials suppliers.

What does all this mean for encapsulation? Glass encapsulation technologies heavily dominate the market today, and glass will continue to dominate in the near- to mid-term. However, the consensus is that glass will not be sufficient for all of the OLEDs expected to emerge over the next decade. OLED panels are getting larger, and the emerging lighting and TV markets expect OLED panels to last much longer than the mobile phone and mp3 sub-displays of the past. Furthermore, the cost pressures are getting more serious. The days in which manufacturers were willing to pay high premiums for good encapsulation strategies are long gone, and low-cost options for encapsulation are now demanded.

For these reasons, OLED firms are beginning to recognize that high quality encapsulation is an area of strategic importance. NanoMarkets believes that we are now seeing some real opportunities for the firms that have been working on the encapsulation issue, many of whom have poured resources into this area for several years. In fact, encapsulation is the key enabling technology for the larger-format/longer lifetime OLEDs that will be entering the market in the near- to mid-term, and thus can unlock entire market segments.

What about flexible encapsulation? The opportunity space for encapsulation technology suppliers will improve when conformable and flexible OLEDs finally start to emerge. Flexibility has been a huge challenge for the encapsulation business, but could potentially generate a lot of revenue for those firms that can bring suitable encapsulation solutions to market. And NanoMarkets believes that conformable OLEDs, which are closer to market than truly flexible ones, present an even bigger opportunity for encapsulation firms.

About the report:

In this new report, NanoMarkets, analyzes and quantifies the opportunities for encapsulation suppliers in the fast-growing OLED market. We examine the product development and marketing strategies of the major players in the OLED encapsulation materials sector, from large multinationals like 3M, DuPont and Corning to specialty firms like Tera Barrier Films, and we also attempt to indicate which are the “companies to watch” and which will be the likely winners and losers in the encapsulation materials space. Finally, this report contains detailed, eight-year forecasts of the OLED encapsulation market broken out by product type and by OLED application.

About NanoMarkets:

NanoMarkets tracks and analyzes emerging market opportunities in energy, electronics and other markets created by developments in advanced materials. The firm is a recognized leader in industry analysis and forecasts for the OLED materials business and has been covering these markets for more than four years.

US Mortgage Lending Helping Boost Real Estate Investment Says AAA

Real estate investment in the US is benefiting from the efforts of the government to boost mortgage lending, which in turn is boosting the economy, according to Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA).

Boston, MA, October 18, 2011 - Real estate investment in the US is benefiting from the efforts of the government to boost mortgage lending, which in turn is boosting the economy, according to Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA).

AAA’s comments follow the publication of new figures showing that real estate investment in New York has overtaken London as the biggest market. As the demand for alternative investments increases as a result of the unstable stock markets, the number of people looking to put their money in the safer asset of real estate has risen and the US market is extremely popular.

As more and more investors understand the importance of the biggest and best real estate, they are opting to put their cash in the big cities, such as New York, Boston, Chicago and Atlanta. New York has taken the number-one spot for real estate investment, which was formerly held by London, which has suffered as a result of less lending from banks in the UK, claims AAA.

The alternative investment advocacy group’s analysis partner, Anthony Johnson, said, “It’s not too surprising that New York and the US market in general is feeling the benefits of the US government’s efforts to boost the property market through helping banks to continue to offer mortgages.”

He added, “Real estate is still seen as an attractive option for those looking to diversify their portfolios to risk.” The stock markets have been particularly volatile in recent months and investors are losing large sums of cash overnight as a result. Providing the US economy continues to slowly recover, the real estate markets looks promising. Other options for keen alternative investors include forestry, through firms like Greenwood Management, and private equity investment.

Total investment in the New York area real estate sector in the 12 months to August this year increased by an impressive 166 per cent to $29.7 billion. The figures were compiled by real estate experts, Cushman & Wakefield.

The Enemy of Innovation? Expertise, Says "Best Practices Are Stupid" Author Stephen Shapiro

People tend to think an expert is the be-all and end-all - the A-to-Z on an important subject. But that's not true when it comes to innovation, says writer and innovation leader Stephen Shapiro, author of "Best Practices Are Stupid". Expertise can actually keep business leaders from that one great idea that will push them to the top.

Boston, MA, October 16, 2011 (Straight Line PR) -- The idea of expertise brings to mind a tub filled with everything one needs to know about a subject. The expert on dish washing soap seemingly knows everything there is to know about dish washing soap. But what Stephen Shapiro shows in his latest book, Best Practices Are Stupid, is that expertise is the enemy of innovation. Why? Because expertise assumes it knows everything there is to know about a subject, when in fact it's one good "idea-merge" away from true brilliance.

"The more you know about a particular topic, the more difficult it is for you to think about it in a different way," says Shapiro. "If you want breakthroughs, you need to bring together people from a wide range of disciplines, backgrounds, and experiences."

This isn't just a theory. In his new book, Best Practices Are Stupid ( http://amzn.to/BestPracticesAreStupid ), Shapiro points to research by Lee Fleming, a Harvard Business School professor who discovered that multidisciplinary work is "frequently superior to the best innovations achieved by conventional approaches". Interestingly, Fleming's research showed that:

* Similar background teams equaled great successes, yet few breakthroughs.

* Cross-disciplinary teams equaled higher failure rate, yet radical innovations with potential to create incredible value.

The question Shapiro poses is whether there's a way to get the benefits associated with diversity without any of the undesirable effects. He answers, "Yes" - and says the key is "open innovation".

"Open innovation is all about engaging people outside of your organization to help solve challenges," says Shapiro (sign up for his monthly Free Innovation Tips at http://www.steveshapiro.com/contact/ ). "It's like when Netflix went outside itself to find a way to improve video recommendation by 10 percent. Or when a solution was found to help in the cleanup of the [oil spilled by the] Exxon Valdez tanker. We must choose open innovation over expertise. It's simply the way to go."

Stephen Shapiro's most recent book, Best Practices Are Stupid discusses the phenomenon of Open Innovation and other paradigm-breaking ideas, and can be found on Amazon.com at http://amzn.to/BestPracticesAreStupid

About Stephen Shapiro:
Stephen Shapiro is one of the foremost authorities on innovation and collaboration, and has personally touched hundreds of thousands of lives in over 40 countries. While Stephen's insights apply to virtually any organization, big or small, he has contributed to shifting the innovation culture for such Fortune 500 organization as Staples, GE, BP, Johnson & Johnson, Fidelity Investments, Pearson Education, Nestle, and Bristol-Myers Squibb. As the founder and creator of a 20,000 person internal innovation practice within Accenture, and advisor to hundreds of organizations worldwide, Stephen possesses a rare and extensive arsenal of tools, allowing him to arm any organization with the knowledge they need to shift their most threatening challenges.

Stephen Shapiro Says Stop Thinking Outside the Box - Find a Better Box

Many think "outside-the-box" is the bedrock of innovation. But innovation expert Stephen Shapiro, author of Best Practices Are Stupid, shows that outside-the-box isn't king. Instead it's a misconception that, if corrected, could lead to big organizational advancements.

Boston, MA, October 17, 2011 (Straight Line PR) -- While reading through the Table of Contents for Stephen Shapiro's latest book, Best Practices Are Stupid, readers inevitably reach this heading and do a double-take: "Don't Think Outside the Box; Find a Better Box". Really, who's ever heard the box analogy challenged? Turns out that Shapiro has.

In fact, he teaches just that.

"Finding a better box is the way to go," says Shapiro, innovation leader and author of Best Practices Are Stupid ( http://amzn.to/BestPracticesAreStupid )

Shapiro defines a "better box" by way of quoting the writer who penned the phrase, "creativity within constraints". Well-defined challenges are an excellent way to guide innovative efforts, because they allow employees, customers and the community to focus their energies on finding solutions that are relevant, says Shapiro ( http://SteveShapiro.com ).

Challenge-driven approaches allow companies to assign certain things before actually investing the valuable time of employees, such as:

* Owners
* Resources
* Funding
* Evaluators
* And evaluation criteria

In his latest book, Best Practices Are Stupid, Shapiro really emphasizes this point by citing the example of two fishermen. The first casts a huge net over a huge body of water. He catches some fish, but also a shoe, gunk, and fish he never wanted to catch. But the second fisherman prepares the right rod, reel, line, leader and bait and knows exactly which fish he's after, so he goes to the exact spot he things they are.

"This is the challenge-driven approach," says Shapiro (sign up for his monthly Free Innovation Tips at http://www.steveshapiro.com/contact/ ). "And if done correctly, establishing boundaries does not have to put constraints on innovative efforts. Jump on board with that."

About Stephen Shapiro:

Karen Lundquist Announces Launch of Legal English Discussion Book for Learners of English for the Law

Accomplished Minneapolis attorney and English legal language consultant Karen Lundquist announces the release of her newest book, English for the Law: Legal English Discussion for ESL and EFL Students.

Minneapolis, MN, October 17, 2011 - Accomplished Minneapolis attorney and English legal language consultant Karen Lundquist announces the release of her newest book, English for the Law: Legal English Discussion for ESL and EFL Students. Published October 12, 2011, the work is directed at ESL (English as a Second Language) or EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students who are studying English for their jobs as lawyers, judges, notaries or other legal professionals. It also serves as an indespensible learning tool for those students who need to know technical legal English for their work, and those who want to be comfortable discussing complex legal issues in English.

Karen states, "The objective of the book is to encourage discussion. It is based on the belief that the most effective way of learning a foreign language and its vocabulary, especially technical terminology, is by using it in directed exercises that focus on the specific subject matter such as law. This book provides exercises that allow students to do precisely that." This professional learning guide is available through Smashwords here and costs just $4.99 to download in electronic format. Readers are also able to download a sample of the book for free.

This book is best suited to students who have at least an intermediate level of English, as there are no discussions or lessons aimed specifically at grammar. Instead, it is assumed that the students are comfortable talking and reading in English but are not necessarily familiar with the specific vocabulary of English for the law. Specifically, the book addresses legal English topics including:

* The Practice of Law

* Attorney Ethics

* Attorney Fees

* Women in the Legal Profession

* Employment Law

* Civil Procedure

* The Courts

* Judicial Reforms

* And many more...

Each section of English for the Law: Legal English Discussion for ESL and EFL Students is divided into chapters, each of which represents a discussion topic. Each chapter includes materials that introduce the topic, such as a statute or court decision. Discussion questions follow. The exercises are based on American law, although they are not lessons in American law. Instead, U.S. statutes, rules and constitutional articles are used as departure points and vehicles for the discussion.

About Karen Lundquist: Karen Lundquist is a multilingual business attorney who owns the Attenza Law Firm in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She is also a veteran professor of English, serving for two decades as a cultured, caring instructor. She specializes in training professionals from various legal realms in developing specific legal-based vocabulary sets that are integral for their abilities to perform an array of spoken career duties. Catering to a global market of legal professionals that need to develop legal English vocabularies, Miss Lundquist can be reached at http://www.karenlundquist.com.

Occupy Wall Street Supported by the A3 Society

Occupy Wall Street has a big job to do - fix broken governments around the world. The A3 Society, founded on breakthrough discoveries that provide solutions for EXACTLY this task, is providing support to the project.

Jacksonville, FL, October 17, 2011 - Breakthrough discoveries in human brain structure, language, the psychology of human behavior, evolution, morality and democracy made by A3 Society founder Bruce Nappi are being made available to the Occupy Wall Street effort to provide a new foundation upon which to organize world governments.

The basic structures that characterize current western democracies emerged from beliefs that tried to explain an environment very different from what we now have. That environment was characterized by: low population, a primitive agricultural economy, mostly isolated communities, and a wealth of natural resources. Society had models for science, nature and humanity based on religious beliefs. The purpose and conduct of life were largely defined in religious terms. The principles: Life, Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness, Freedom of Religion, Speech, Assembly, Right to Bear Arms, Family, and Marriage were also defined by the beliefs of those times. Economies were local, and mostly confined to personal subsistence.

The Renaissance brought an explosion of challenges to the religious interpretations of all of these principles. This splintered the Christian world and produced an upheaval in governance, pulling control away from the Pope and establishing independent countries and religions across Europe under the control of kings. Philosophy went into turmoil. Academics scrambled to re-explain the world, the behavior of humans, and the meaning of morality.

In the middle of this turmoil, a handful of English colonies in a "new world" launched a bold experiment to free themselves from Authoritarianism, Aristocracy and Religious Doctrine: a government, OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE.

Time, however, was rapidly accelerating. Population grew around the globe. The industrial revolution brought power tools, automation, chemistry, electronics, high speed world wide transportation, and instantaneous world wide communications. In just ONE CENTURY, these new technologies so drastically boosted humanity's ability to affect the planet, that we are now facing limits for most of our natural resources. World population is now greater than the planet can sustain, and impending climate changes are expected to disrupt world wide food supplies. YET, these awesome new capabilities are still being directed by government structures designed to govern a much more simple world.

In two new books, scientist, engineer and philosopher Bruce Nappi presents breakthrough concepts that expand the discoveries of the world's greatest thinkers to include modern knowledge and combine them into an integrated system. The new system leads directly to new governing structures that Occupy Wall Street can implement to repair the breakdown in current democracy.

About Bruce Nappi

Explorer, philosopher and Jacksonville, Florida author, Bruce Nappi, has just released two volumes of his new book series LIARS! The books present over 40 major discoveries that answer many of the most critical unanswered questions of the ages, including why we have so much chaos and strife in modern society. Difficult psychological and philosophical discoveries are explained using common language in a readable, exciting novel format. The discoveries affect every part of our culture, making the books valuable reading for everyone who seeks understanding and improvement for today's society.

The books -- LIARS! Vol. 1: Scout to the Pole; and Vol. 2: Escape to Insanity -- are based on Nappi's experience as one of the Eagle Scouts on the 1965 North Pole Expedition. They present an "Atlas Shrugged" philosophical romp through a 3 Stooges run government research world, challenging the most fundamental beliefs of human culture. The coming of age saga is filled with true-life adventures expanded by the insights of 40 years in the rough and tumble world of high tech business intrigue. A life threatening climax in volume 2 finally creates a setting to pull together the wisdom and lay out a broad and comprehensive explanation for many of the problems modern society is searching to understand.

About the A3 Society

The A3 Society was formed to gather a community of like-minded people to implement the 40+ scientific, philosophical and social breakthroughs presented in the books LIARS! Vol. 1: Scout to the Pole and LIARS! Vol. 2: Escape to Insanity.

Stephen Shapiro Shows How to Avoid One-Hit Wonder Syndrome: Best Practices Are Stupid

One-hit wonders might be memorable. But really - they're not respected or considered mega successful. That's why it's so vital to continuously innovate in big ways. Innovation expert Stephen Shapiro details this syndrome in his new book, "Best Practices Are Stupid".

Boston, MA, October 15, 2011 (Straight Line PR) -- We've all heard about Lipps Inc, The Sugar Hill Gang, and Haddaway - for precisely one song each. That's right, they were bands. And they sang Funky Town, Rapper's Delight, and What is Love (respectively). These bands and songs all have one thing in common: they were one-hit wonders.

"This one-hit syndrome must be avoided in the world of innovation," says innovation leader Stephen Shapiro, author of Best Practices Are Stupid ( http://amzn.to/BestPracticesAreStupid ). "We must be very mindful of the five components required for successful avoidance of one-hit wonders."

Those five components - detailed in his book - are:

* Strategy

* Measures

* Process

* People

* Technology

"The 'one hit wonder' syndrome is not dissimilar to what happens with many businesses," Shapiro says (sign up for his monthly Free Innovation Tips at http://www.steveshapiro.com/contact/ ). "One good idea pops up that reaps stellar returns... and then the organization falls from grace."

How can business leaders dodge this syndrome? By making sure that innovation energies are predictable and sustainable, treating them like any other capability in the company.

In his new book, Best Practices Are Stupid, Shapiro ( http://SteveShapiro.com ) offers as an example how finance departments operate (CPAs, CFOs, etc.) and suggests using this structure for innovation. This is vital to avoiding the 'one hit wonder' syndrome.

Innovation must be brought out of the recesses of research and development departments, and placed directly in the limelight of organizations along with other highly esteemed areas.

"It's time to bring it to the forefront of business - putting it on the same level as finance, sales and marketing," Shapiro explains. "To restrain innovation limits its effectiveness to near nothingness. Treat innovation like you would other departments, and chances are it's going to treat your organization better than you could have ever imagined."

FRA Claims Increased Exports to China to Boost Timber Prices

Forestry Research Associates (FRA) have commented on new figures from Wood Resources Quarterly that show 2011 exports of softwood lumber from the US and Canada to China will reach record levels.

Bainbridge Island, WA, October 14, 2011 - Forestry Research Associates (FRA) have commented on new figures from Wood Resources Quarterly that show 2011 exports of softwood lumber from the US and Canada to China will reach record levels.

FRA, a research and analysis consultancy, has welcomed the new predictions of record experts, claiming that the demand could drive wood prices up.

Some $1.3 billion worth of softwood products were shipped from the two countries to China last year. Wood Resource Quarterly predicts that if the export rate continues at the level seen in the first seven months of 2011, total exports will double from 2010 values.

Much of the growth in exports has come from the British Columbia region of Canada, where millions of tons of timber killed by the local Pine Beetle infestations have accounted for much of the timber exported. Controversially many of Canada‘s sawmills are seeing a huge amount of their processing work being moved to China, which many claim is threatening jobs.

Despite this, FRA claims that the demand from China is a positive thing for the forestry industry, and particularly for those who are investing in forestry as prices are being driven up. FRA’s analysis partner, Peter Collins explained, “Canada and US forest managers are enjoying impressive increases in the value of their exports thanks to huge demand from East Asia.”

He added that in years to come, demand from the Far East and Europe will exceed supply and more sustainable plantations need to be established to meet this demand. He said, “Firms that are establishing new plantations in developing countries, like Greenwood Management, which has planted forests of teak and eucalyptus in Brazil, will help the forestry industry to meet demand by filling the gaps.”

Wood Resource Quarterly also agrees that the Chinese market will continue to grow, presenting opportunities for expansion for the US and Canadian forestry industries.
