Rochester Tree Service Company Launches New Tree Services to Aid in a Better Environment

KISS PR Brand Story

Today, Tree Service Rochester NY, a new provider of tree care services is excited to bring to the city of Rochester its latest techniques in the field of tree maintenance and arboriculture. With a commitment to preserving the environment, Tree Service Rochester NY has developed a series of cutting-edge services designed to enhance the urban landscape of New York while making the city more environmentally sound. As urbanization is spreading at a rapid pace, the need for professional tree services have been more important than ever. Trees play a vital role in improving air quality, reducing energy costs and enhancing the overall environment that it surrounds. However, improper tree care, tree disease, along with poor knowledge around the subject, can inadvertently lead to a decline in the trees’ health bringing down the environmental benefits that come with a healthy tree. Poor tree maintenance may also lead to potential hazards, such as falling trees and badly prepared areas in case of a storm, leading to property damage and even human injury. Tree Service Rochester NY has recognized several of these challenges and presents an array of advanced tree services which are aimed at protecting not just the trees, but also the citizens, resulting in an environment that is harmonious to both. Here are a few of the new line of services that have been introduced: Tree Health Assessments: One of Tree Service Rochester NY’s services include a specialized list of health assessments to detect a tree’s wellbeing. This includes being able to pre-emptively assess any diseases a tree may be forming, in addition to analyzing any pest problems a tree may have. Precise Pruning and Trimming: With their precise tree trimming and pruning techniques, the tree cutting team is able to navigate around even the hardest obstacles to cut down any intruding branches or trees. With a clean-cut trim, the tree is able to maintain its health while maintaining structural integrity, minimizing the risk of falling branches. Advanced Tree Crown Reduction Techniques: Some other techniques Tree Service Rochester NY employs are crown cleaning, crown thinning, crown reduction, and crown raising. Depending on the property owner's objectives, crown reduction techniques can not only enhance the functionality of the tree on the property, but can also raise the property value. Basic crowncleaning services involve removing dead or diseased branches as well as trimming any crossing branches over the central stem of the tree, creating a walkable space underneath without the hazard of any loose branches from falling. Emergency Tree Care: During storms and blizzards, the emergency team implements a special strategy for removing any dangerous branches or trees from falling on property. With the use of proper cranes, equipment, and techniques, the team is able to quickly address all kinds of fallen trees, damaged limbs and other hazardous situations. Samuel from the Rochester team says "We believe that trees and people can live in harmony and it is our responsibility to treat, care and create a space where both nature and people can benefit.

Global Aerospace Provides Valuable Information on the The FAA’s UAS Remote Identification Rule

KISS PR Brand Story

This month, we are delighted to have Christian Ramsey from uAvionix share insights on an important change in drone regulations and how operators can remain compliant. Christian Ramsey, Managing Director uAvionix Corporation As the use of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) continues to increase, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has introduced the UAS Remote Identification (RID) Rule to ensure airspace safety and security. The second and final part of this rule goes into effect in September 2023, requiring that UAS operators comply to facilitate their identification and tracking. The first part went into effect in December 2022, and it required UAS manufacturers to include the technology in its products. This one-two punch is intended to ensure that all UAS equipment broadcasts its information, and that all UAS operators are using compliant equipment. Let’s review what RID is and the ways to be compliant. The FAA's Rule mandates that nearly all UAS operating in the U.S. comply using one of the following: Standard remote identification Broadcast modules FAA-recognized identification areas (FRIA). Both standard RID and broadcast modules are technology-based transmitters that transmit the UAS location as well as the location of the operator (for standard RID) or takeoff location (for broadcast modules). FRIA compliance is location-based and allows for relief of the need to equip with the technology if flying in an FAA pre-approved location. Here’s a deeper dive into each: Standard Remote ID The FAA was very clever with its naming convention here, ensuring that the world knows that this option is intended to be the norm. Standard RID systems are what was required of manufacturers as of December 2022, and these solutions are built into the drones themselves. If you were to open your drone, you may not even be able to identify it. One of the key differentiators of standard systems is that they are intended to be tamper-proof and cannot be turned off. They are so integrated into the drone that they will broadcast the operator’s GPS location, not just the aircraft’s location. As an aircraft manufacturer, you must submit a Declaration of Conformity (DoC) proving to the FAA that the system is installed and characterizing its performance. Only approved DoC’d aircraft are legal. Broadcast Modules A broadcast module is your retrofit solution. It is an entirely self-contained system that has no integration into the aircraft. Broadcast modules are often literally stuck-on to the aircraft with Velcro or some other kind of adhesive. Sometimes they contain a battery, but it is not required that they do so. Instead of broadcasting the operator’s GPS location, broadcast modules can detect a takeoff and broadcast that location. From a security perspective, this is less reliable, and as such, there is a critical operational limitation with the use of broadcast modules—Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) is not allowed. For that, you’ll need to upgrade to standard RID. Broadcast modules also need a filed and accepted DoC from the FAA. Buyer beware: Internet shopping sources reveal a significant amount of hardware on the market that does not have legal DoCs. uAvionix produces a broadcast module called pingRID. uAvionix pingRID broadcast module FAA-Recognized Identification Areas (FRIA) A FRIA is a defined geographic area where drones can be flown without either standard RID or a broadcast module. Both the drone and the operator must be within the zone, and the aircraft must be within visual line of sight of the operator. “Drone” here is used loosely because one of the primary reasons for a FRIA is to allow remote control (RC) aircraft enthusiasts to fly without RID technology, and generally, those aircraft are not referred to as “drones.” But if the aircraft does have standard RID onboard, you cannot turn it off legally while in a FRIA. There is an application process for being approved as a FRIA on the FAADroneZone website, but at the time of this writing, there have not been any sites approved yet. Are There Exceptions? Yes, there are a few exceptions, including: If your drone is less than 0.55 pounds and used only recreationally, you don’t need RID. Homebuilt UAS—defined as aircraft built by individuals solely for education or recreation—don’t need RID. If your drone is being flown in controlled airspace under Part 91 and under air traffic control services and equipped with ADS-B OUT, you don’t need RID. If you know what that means, you know. If you don’t know, you need RID. RID isn’t required for UAS of the U.S. Government. The rule does not say whether this means “owned by” or simply “operated by.” UAS designed or produced exclusively for the purpose of aeronautical research or to show compliance with regulations don’t need RID. You need RID “Unless otherwise authorized by the FAA Administrator.” The FAA usually has this language somewhere, giving them an out for special circumstances. Currently, the uptake on UAS manufacturers implementing standard RID and approved broadcast modules is slow but climbing. As the FAA and industry ramp up education and communications leading to the September deadline, the use of RID is expected to rise dramatically. Within a few years, its use will be nearly universal. One benefit of this technology may be for insurance providers to use the data generated by RID devices to manage risk and even tailor insurance products and pricing. Ultimately, having greater accountability within the drone community should improve overall risk characteristics.

School Air Filtration in Sacramento The Rising Importance of HEPA Filtration

KISS PR Brand Story

"Air pollution is a major global issue with serious health consequences. With rising levels of air pollution, a lingering pandemic, and increased awareness of indoor air quality, the function of High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtration is becoming increasingly important," Camfil Sacramento School Air Filter Experts wrote in a recently published resource. According to American Lung Association data from 2023, numerous U.S. cities, the majority of which are in California, have poor air quality based on ozone and particle pollution measurements. In the future, urbanization, climate change, and technological advances will impact air quality and demand for HEPA filtration systems. Addressing air pollution at its source by supporting sustainable practices and lowering greenhouse gas emissions is still essential to this debate. HEPA filters are precisely designed to trap at least 99.97% of particles with a diameter of 0.3 microns, making them efficient against a wide range of pollutants such as dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, and even certain bacteria and viruses. Our understanding of air pollution is evolving, and we now realize that these chemicals are more than simply annoyances but also possible health hazards. Long-term particle pollution exposure, for example, has been associated with respiratory and cardiovascular problems. The COVID-19 epidemic has highlighted the significance of indoor air quality. Because respiratory droplets and aerosols mostly spread the virus, HEPA filtration has been highlighted as essential for minimizing airborne transmission in indoor settings. Indeed, some research suggests that HEPA-filtered air purifiers can reduce the concentration of the virus that causes COVID-19 in the air. Because HEPA filters cannot capture gaseous pollutants like ozone, it is also necessary to use activated carbon or other activated filter media to effectively target all types of pollution. The American Lung Association's most recent statistics emphasize this critical concern. As of 2023, the cities in the United States with the worse air quality are primarily in California, but numerous places in other states are also afflicted. These rankings are based on three pollution measures: ozone, short-term particle pollution, and all-year particle pollution. In some cases, cities in California, such as Fresno, Kern, Kings, Los Angeles, Madera, Riverside, San Bernardino, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tulare, and Pinal in Arizona, obtained failing marks on all three pollution categories. Looking ahead, here are the three critical elements that are likely to influence the future of air: 1. Increased urbanization and industrialization: Air pollution levels are predicted to rise as more people migrate to cities and industrial activities expand. This will likely increase demand for effective air filtration systems, such as those with HEPA filters. 2. Climate change is projected to exacerbate air pollution problems, with rising temperatures likely increasing the development of ground-level ozone, a dangerous air pollutant. This implies that the demand for efficient air filtration will only increase. 3. Technological advancements: Future air purification technology may be more advanced and efficient. For example, we could witness the development of smart air purifiers that can monitor air quality in real-time and alter their operation as needed. To summarize, the future of air is a significant matter that requires our immediate attention. HEPA filtration will likely remain critical in producing cleaner and healthier indoor environments. However, we must also address air pollution at its source by supporting sustainable behaviors and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The severity of air pollution in many U.S. cities emphasizes the urgent need for effective air filtration devices and better pollution-reduction efforts.

Amesite Inc.

By David Willey, Benzinga Follow the latest news from Amesite, Inc. Dr. Ann Marie Sastry, CEO of Amesite, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMST), recently appeared on Benzinga’s All Access Live, a live show where Benzinga highlights companies and leaders who are transforming their industry. Amesite is an eLearning platform and content provider powered by artificial intelligence (AI). The company is looking to revolutionize the traditional educational experience and harness the power of AI for the next generation of learners. Amesite has had an AI-first approach from its inception, and Dr. Sastry spoke about how this “build-to-integrate” approach has given the company both philosophical and technical advantages in the market. The company sees that the world is moving rapidly toward the integration of AI across all sectors, and it believes that this is creating a need for services that make AI readily available and part of daily life. Also, on a very practical level, Dr. Sastry believes companies that don’t adopt AI will quickly become obsolete and be left behind in the fast-changing economic environment. Amesite is addressing this need both by integrating AI technology into its platform and by educating its users in AI competence. One way it is doing this is by offering a free course on the fundamentals of ChatGPT. Amesite’s AI-First Framework In fact, Amesite moved early to integrate language learning model (LLM) technology, and it recently announced the launch of its Version 6.3 (V6) platform, which incorporates GPT4 technology. This means that courses hosted on Amesite’s platform take advantage of cutting-edge AI features to provide a premium Learning Management System (LMS).

That's certainly something that's been a key part of our success over the last 30 years,” Kaye says. Jaguar Freight is constantly looking to build its network with companies working outside its realm of expertise, delivering value to its partners and benefiting from the partner's capabilities. For example, Jaguar has a long-standing relationship with a customs attorney, who can provide advice and other legal services to its clients that need them. It also has good relationships with distributors, external manufacturers, and third-party logistics companies that it can vouch for and recommend to its clients. Another major partner of Jaguar Freight is a trade finance company, which facilitates domestic and international trade by providing purchase order financing for import and export activities and reducing risk. Jaguar Freight has recommended this company to its clients and vice-versa, leading to a strong symbiotic relationship. “What we can bring to our partners is a streamlined, efficient, tech-enabled supply chain solution that will be of value to their clients who are looking to improve their supply chain capabilities by adding automation and technology,” Kaye says. “We welcome the opportunity to talk to those companies and see if there is an appropriate fit and where we could add value. I always say that, if we're unable to add value to a prospect or partner, then we don't want to do business with them. We don't want to put them through the whole rigmarole of technological change just to remain stuck in the status quo.” Media Contact Name: Paul Speakman Email: pauls@jaguarfreight.com Release ID: 663841

According to the editor's choice, the best overall performance went to CHI G2 Ceramic And Titanium Straightening Hairstyling Iron. They thoroughly tested it and found no cons to highlight in the guide. The best for daily styling went to LumaBella Keratin, who, although it only has five temperature settings, did the job optimally. The Best For Fine Hair went to ISA Professional Titanium Flat Iron thanks to their Innovative Mirror Titanium Plates and Neon LCD Background Display. However, the machine is trickier for left-handed people. The Best For Long Hair and the Best For wavy hair went to Kipozi Professional Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener and GHD Classic Flat Iron Styler. For Thick Hair, Cloud Nine Original Iron Hair Straightener came out at the top. In comparison, the Best For Frizzy Hair went to HSI Professional Glider. On the other hand, the Best For Curly Hair went to Solano Sleekheat450 Professional Flat Iron Best. For people on a budget, the Budget Flat Iron: Remington S5500 1" Anti Static Flat Iron has been declared the best value for money. Amy continued, "For people that want to put on the research cap themselves, the guide has a section on features they need to look out for. Ideal machines must be from ceramic, titanium, tourmaline, and nano titanium as they allow even heat distribution. People also need to give importance to cord length for optimum styling control. Additionally, choosing a machine with higher temperature ranges would allow people to style more hair textures and types. People must also pick machines with decent warranties so their hard-earned money doesn't go to waste if something malfunctions."
