Legistek Announces Limine 2.0 Moving to Beta Testing and Partnering with Aquipt for Custom Infrastructure on MatterPoint Platform

Legistek is thrilled to announce that their online evidence management platform Limine 2.0 is moving to beta testing, and that they will be partnering with Aquipt to leverage the MatterPoint private cloud to offer custom infrastructure environments to their customers.

Limine 2.0, the successor to the standalone trial support application first released in 2015, offers lawyers and support professionals a single online workspace that can support litigation matters both large and small from the conclusion of document productions all the way through – and including – trial.

During the invitation-only beta testing period, users will be able to evaluate and test Limine with live, active cases in their own private cloud environments powered by Aquipt's MatterPoint.

"With Limine, case documents, transcripts – including synchronized video – and other evidence reside in a single online 'matter' accessible to everyone on the case. Documents can be organized, annotated, and eventually labeled for depositions or trial. Transcript videos can be streamed directly from the web, allowing lawyers to preview and designate testimony for dispositive motions and trial," said Limine creator, Peter Moore. "Powerful user access settings give case administrators an extraordinary amount of granularity to control which users can access various documents and perform advanced actions. When ready for trial, exhibits and deposition clips can be downloaded seamlessly into the Limine desktop application for electronic presentation in court. Aquipt's MatterPoint will deliver infrastructure precision and world class IT support to our on-premise customers and we're thrilled to partner with them."

MatterPoint from Aquipt delivers a cloud infrastructure platform purpose-built to address the complex demands of eDiscovery Application hosting, matter ingestion, and strict data security standards. Supported 24/7 by Aquipt technicians and engineers, MatterPoint will give these clients specific and exact control over their environments.

"Legistek has proven to be a true innovator in the legal technology arena with its standalone Limine application" said Bob Rivas, Executive Director at Aquipt. "We're thrilled that they've chosen us as a partner on the next generation of their product. MatterPoint was custom built to meet the ever-changing demands of the legal sector and this is another terrific opportunity to expose a new user-base to our platform."

According to Legistek, Limine 2.0 will be commercially available later this year as a self-hosted client/server solution for legal practices, with private cloud infrastructure and professional IT support offered through Aquipt. In addition, Limine.com, launching in 2019, will bring an end-to-end litigation technology solution to small and solo practices in the form of a simple monthly subscription service.

Major Cultural Legacy Donated To 12 U.S. Tribal Colleges

The donation includes several hundred contemporary Curtis photographs, and a curated, digital collection of materials originally created by Edward Curtis for his landmark photo-ethnographic publication. With an aggregate value of over $500,000, the donation is being made in recognition of the 10,000 Native Americans who collaborated in the creation of the original publication, and to support current efforts by Native people to reconnect with their history, culture, and traditions.

The North American Indian by Edward Curtis was the most ambitious and expensive ethno-photographic project ever undertaken. Championed by Theodore Roosevelt, and with early patronage from J.P. Morgan, Curtis traveled the continent from 1905–1930, creating 40–50,000 negatives, over 1,000 wax cylinder recordings, and filming the earliest footage of North American Indians. The 2,500,000 words of text provide rare and valuable historic and cultural information.

"Introducing the ethno-photographic legacy of Edward Curtis, the inspiring beauty, heart, spirit, and extraordinary lifeways of historic Native people to contemporary audiences is my great passion," says Christopher Cardozo. "These donations provide an opportunity for us to identify more Native Americans whose ancestors collaborated with Edward Curtis on the original North American Indian project." As part of an ongoing repatriation effort, Christopher Cardozo Fine Art is donating contemporary Curtis photographs to these descendants.

LPG Endermologie® Treatments Announced as Solution to Post-Pregnancy Body Changes

Perfect for new moms looking for an all-natural solution to stubborn belly fat, changes in body shape and sagging skin, LPG endermologie® treatments can help tone the skin and boost slimming.

More info here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/author-sb-white-has-released-latest-ya.html

One hundred percent natural and effective, LPG endermologie® is a non-invasive and non-aggressive massage-based beauty treatment which reduces the appearance of cellulite and tones the skin using an FDA cleared and patented device.

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/proshred-arizona-announces-pilot.html

Being a mother is a full-time job, making it very difficult for new moms to bounce back to their pre-pregnancy figures. Endermologie® sessions range from 15-35 minutes, with no known side effects, allowing moms to pop in and out of the treatments feeling relaxed and ready to get back to their little ones.

As pregnancy is accompanied by significant hormonal changes, weight gain, and stretching of the skin, a mother's body can appear very differently after childbirth. Endermologie® treatments can assist new moms in an all-natural and pain-free way.

Stretching of the skin caused by the child's growth within the abdomen and the inevitable pregnancy weight gain, unfortunately, can lead to loose and/or sagging skin. Endermologie® treatments will help to tone and smooth the skin.

Additionally, endermologie® treatments often produce slimming results. Once hormone stability is reached after childbirth (generally 2 cycles after periods have resumed), endermologie® treatments play an important role in targeting stubborn fat cells, especially those resistant to diet and exercise.

After a C-section, mobilizing tissue is essential to the healing process, as the body can naturally create a barrier within the skin which prevents circulatory and cellular exchanges, leading to fat storage. Endermologie® is a painless solution that helps to soften tissue and mobilize fluids. Read all the latest news.

The unique vantage point of endermologie® is that it is 100% natural, safe, and FDA cleared. Many body sculpting technologies use painful treatments that involve killing cells, while the endermologie® technology is a pain-free, non-aggressive treatment, which many people find relaxing.

Endermologie® uses mechanical cellular stimulation to target dormant cells and cellulite dimples, toning the skin, targeting fat*, and smoothing cellulite. This service is delivered via an Endermologie® machine, which has a roller and suction system that a specialist uses to treat customers.

EndoSystems, LLC, the exclusive distributor of LPG endermologie® products in the U.S., has grown the popularity of the non-invasive cellulite treatment to many doctors, med spas, and medical practices nationwide. For more information, visit the Endo-Systems website or call (866) 374-9401 ex: 2896 for a free consultation today.

DNAnexus and QIAGEN Team Up in Education Webinar: Scaling End-to-End NGS Solutions for Clinical Diagnostics in the Cloud

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has become an essential tool in clinical diagnostic laboratories. However, this technology introduces many well-described challenges around data processing, storage and analysis. Viapath is based at Guy's Hospital London, which leads the South London NHS Genomic Medicine Centre. The Viapath Genetics Laboratories have implemented automated, scalable, and cost-effective clinical bioinformatics pipelines in the cloud.

The DNAnexus Platform is used to run clinical-grade workflows in line with AMP and CAP consensus recommendations for NGS bioinformatics pipelines. Viapath leverages DNAnexus to analyze exomes for pediatric developmental disorders and an amplicon panel for assessing EGFR in lung cancer, all of which are ISO15189-accredited.

These automated and scalable workflows perform secondary bioinformatics analysis, generating a variant call file (VCF) which is then passed directly into QIAGEN Ingenuity Variant Analysis (IVA) for genomic interpretation. IVA takes advantage of the Qiagen Knowledge Base to enable systematic filtering, prioritization, and analysis of variants, including automated ACMG classification.

The DNAnexus Platform is also used to manage data, which is archived for long-term storage using Amazon Glacier; this provides a low-cost and resilient solution.

In this webinar, participants will learn about the advantages of the DNAnexus and IVA platforms, as well as how to develop processes for building DNAnexus apps and workflows. They will learn best practices for automating pipelines from sequencer to analysis and hear how to interpret exome variants. Read all the latest news.

The team from Viapath's Genetics Laboratory will be the speakers for this event, including Joo Wook Ahn (Genome Informatics Lead), Andrew Bond (Clinical Bioinformatician) and Mattias Jansson (Clinical Scientist). Dr. Alessandro Riccombeni, European Science Lead at DNAnexus will moderate the webinar.

Woolpert Providing Structural Engineering for Miami University Residence Halls

Woolpert is providing structural engineering services for the renovation of three Miami University residence halls as part of the public university's long-term goal to provide the best undergraduate experience in the nation. Read related news now.

Woolpert was contracted by GBBN Architects, who was hired by Messer Construction, to improve site work, architectural finishes and details, life safety features, better access and functionality and energy-efficient mechanical systems to Scott, Minnich and Stanton halls. These updates are part of the Miami University 2020 Plan, unveiled in 2012, which outlines enhancements throughout the university from academics to culture to infrastructure.

Scott Hall and Minnich Hall, which are on university's Central Quad, began the renovation process in 2016 and reopened for students this month. Schematic design for the renovations at Stanton Hall, on the South Quad, are in progress, and that residence hall is scheduled to be completed in 2020. These renovation projects are valued at a combined $50 million and will be completed using design-build project delivery.

"The work GBBN and Messer are doing to these buildings with Woolpert is focused on preserving the Neo-Georgian architecture of the campus, but it is also helping to keep the university competitive," GBBN Senior Associate Andrew Plogsted said. "Students today have much higher expectations of their living spaces than in the past, and these renovations give them just that."

Woolpert Structural Engineering Manager Frank Monastra said ensuring Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance and updating architectural and mechanical systems at each building to meet a consistent design standard have been key aspects of these projects.

"For Scott and Minnich, we cut holes in the floor to provide a new elevator shaft, added new areaways for louvers, support frames for mechanical units in attic, new ADA ramps and converted a crawl space into a full height basement space for storage and mechanical systems," Monastra said. "These residence halls were built at varying times over the years, yet maintained similar structural frame systems. The university is investing in its vibrant learning environment by comprehensively integrating contemporary amenities, while maintaining the coherent, iconic look that defines the beautiful, historic campus."

Woolpert has worked with Miami University since 2001, supplying civil engineering and landscape architecture services for a variety of projects. The international architecture, engineering and geospatial firm also has performed similar renovations at campuses across the country. Read related news here.

"Our experience has taught us how to adapt our structural design intent to actual conditions discovered in the field," Monastra said. "With historic structures especially, you don't really know what's in there until you begin demolition. We frequently encounter obstacles in the field that were not noted on existing drawings and required us to revise our design with innovative solutions that are constructible and within budget. Being flexible and surrounded by a great design-build team allows us to get better with every project."
