The National Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), an agency of the Department of Defense, announced today that Mr. Greg Lee, Senior Vice President of Human Resources for Sears, will sign a Statement of Support for the National Guard and Reserve on December 31, 2003 in Pasadena, California.

According to Bob Hollingsworth, ESGR Executive Director, Sears joins a cadre of Fortune 500 companies and thousands of America’s employers in demonstrating support for our troops. “A Statement of Support serves two very vital functions; first, it demonstrates the strong level of support for our Guard and Reserve, which is important during this critical time. Secondly, it sends a clear message to the service members that while they’re serving their country, they do not have to worry about their civilian jobs.”

Sears has long supported its full-time employees called to active duty by extending military pay deferential and health benefits for up to 30 months and holding a comparable position for these individuals for up to five years.

ESGR is a Department of Defence agency whose mission is to gain and maintain employer support from all public and private employers for the men and women who serve in the National Guard and Reserve.

New OpenSSL Vulnerabilities Discovered

New OpenSSL Vulnerabilities Discovered

Vigilinx, the leading provider of independent, proactive security intelligence, today advised clients of the discovery of a potentially dangerous vulnerability in certain versions of OpenSSL code which enables encrypted communication on the Internet.

Parsippany, N. J. (PRWEB) August 3, 2002 -

Vigilinx, the leading provider of independent, proactive security intelligence, today advised clients of the discovery of a potentially dangerous vulnerability in certain versions of OpenSSL code which enables encrypted communication on the Internet. Initial analysis of the vulnerabilities and early patches in VigilinxÂ’ Patch Validation Laboratory corroborates researchers reports on this vulnerability. The vulnerability has been reported in findings by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Air Force Research Laboratory. Two additional independent security researchers have also confirmed it.

The problem involves four buffer overflow vulnerabilities. One causes the denial of service vulnerability, while the other three allow a remote attacker to execute code with root-level privileges. Affected systems are those using OpenSSL 0.9.6d or earlier, 0.9.7-beta2 or earlier, or the current development snapshots of 0.9.7. The vulnerabilities affect both client and server.

“The wide proliferation of servers that utilize SSL to protect encrypted sessions, may make these vulnerabilities significant,” said Bruce Murphy, Vigilinx CEO. “At this point, we are not aware of any damage that has been inflicted due to this vulnerability, but we believe that the potential for damage is high and a proactive response is warranted. “

Additional information about this vulnerability can be found at www. vigilinx. com.

Denver, CO and Santa Fe, NM (PRWEB) May 1, 2008

Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Business Revolution through Ancestral Wisdom: The circle knowledge of the past comes forward to show us how to create a practical and ethical process for success, sustainability, and true prosperity by Tu Moonwalker & JoAnne OBrien-Levin, Ph. D. with Láné Saán Moonwalker, which is the author's most recent book to date. The 6 x 9 Paperback in the Business Aspects category is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble for a suggested retail price of $22.95. The webpage at www. outskirtspress. com/businessrevolutionwisdom (http://www. outskirtspress. com/businessrevolutionwisdom) was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

About the Book (Excerpts & Info):
We need a new blueprint for the conduct of business. The evidence is everywhere. As recent events show, too many business organizations operate in ways at odds with our sense of what is ethical, moral, and fair. Many business practices seem to be on a collision course with human welfare and with the precious and fragile ecological environment that sustains us. Furthermore, these behaviors are increasingly costly to the environment, to human well-being, and now--as is becoming evident--to the businesses themselves. Something is terribly wrong. We are desperate for a better way. We need a different foundational structure for business--one that enables us to be effective and, at the same time, supports our humanity. But is such a vision really possible?

All wisdom traditions point toward this fundamental truth. There is a pattern to the flow of the universe: it flows in a circle. It follows that when human activities flow in a circular manner, they receive tremendous support from the universe. Aligning with this flow is key to lasting happiness, success, and peace. This wisdom is applicable to business.

The Circle can help us restructure businesses so that energy continuously flows through them, keeping them vital. It can help us build ethics and sustainable practices into their very foundation. It supports healthy relationships, fostering attitudes of acceptance, mutual respect, and co-operation. As a blueprint, the Circle is scalable, multi-faceted, and endlessly customizable. It's applicable to all stages of building, managing, and evolving a business.

Never before has the Circle been written about as a tool for business management. For the first time, this book brings it into the world of modern commerce.

Deftly constructed at 240 pages, Business Revolution through Ancestral Wisdom: The circle knowledge of the past comes forward to show us how to create a practical and ethical process for success, sustainability, and true prosperity is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Business Aspects category. With U. S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Business Revolution through Ancestral Wisdom meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $22.95.

Additionally, Business Revolution through Ancestral Wisdom can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press wholesale online bookstore at www. outskirtspress. com/buybooks (http://www. outskirtspress. com/buybooks)

Sherwin-Williams Names Zig. marketing Digital Agency for Three Brands

Zig. marketing has been named the digital agency of record for three Sherwin-Williams brands, Dutch Boy®, Krylon® and Pratt & Lambert®. Zig is helping Sherwin-Williams make a commitment in the digital space to stay ahead of a changing media landscape, and do an even better job of talking to and inspiring new and current customers.

Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) March 7, 2009

Zig. marketing has been named the digital agency of record for three Sherwin-Williams brands, Dutch Boy®, Krylon® and Pratt & Lambert®. Zig is helping Sherwin-Williams make a commitment in the digital space to stay ahead of a changing media landscape, and do an even better job of talking to and inspiring new and current customers.

"There's a major digital revolution taking place on the web, a place where virtually every purchase decision takes place, and Sherwin-Williams wants to be on the forefront," says Adam Chafe, Vice President of Marketing Diversified Brands.

The initial efforts will include microsites, banners, paid search, blogging and email campaigns, with Zig helping to give Sherwin more productive and cost effective alternatives to standard advertising, to better reach and engage their customers.

For Dutch Boy, Zig is creating an interactive My House Stinks campaign around their newly launched Refresh™ odor-eliminating paint. The viral-based campaign involves consumers sharing and posting their ugly, stinky room pictures that others will then vote on. Krylon is launching the first ever wood spray stain, using only interactive means with a Save Our Saturday (SOS) campaign that revolves around helping men perform their honey-do list jobs faster and entering them to win a trip to the World Series. The Pratt & Lambert campaign called the Green Palette Architectural Information Center focuses on the business-to-business segment of architects, giving them a forum to learn about green sustainability, and a platform to post and comment on each others green designs.

"The internet is about reaching buyers as close to the purchase decision as possible. Zig has learned how to help clients engage consumers on their own terms in order to successfully sell something digitally," explains Howard Zoss, President of Zig. marketing.

Zig. marketing, a fast-growing entrepreneurial advertising and web consultancy headquartered in Cleveland, OH with an office also in Detroit, is a unique, direct, no-nonsense, entrepreneurial consultancy taking an "un-agency" approach that breaks the rules and generates sales results for clients.
