Plone and Drupal: Different Approaches, Different Results
paul.nowak wrote: Matt, thanks for the comments. I made an error on the version of Plone. It's 2.5 Plone running on Zope 2.9x. In regards to the additional products, we have a skin installed and we have a product that we had custom developed for us that connects to a PostgreSQL database. We've looked at slow PostgreSQL queries causing problems and have not been able to find an issue. We've also tested for the case where the PostgreSQL server is down and have not been able to create an issue. We therefor...

HearAtLast to Develop 25 New Hearing Store Locations in the USA and Canada

By: Marketwire .
Jul. 2, 2009 09:55 PM

MISSISSAUGA, ON -- (Marketwire) -- 07/02/09 -- HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HRAL), a leading provider of suitable affordable solutions to clients with hearing needs in the billion dollar hearing loss market, announced today it will be developing 25 new Hearing Store locations in various markets in the USA and Canada. These new locations will be by way of a joint venture agreement between certain Joint Venture Partners and HearAtLast Holdings, Inc.

This development is also part of the new licensing plan previously released on June 19, 2009 where HearAtLast announced that it would begin to license their HearAtLast Hearing Store brand throughout North America. HearAtLast will have a majority interest in the new Joint Venture locations and will be managed by HearAtLast under their HearAtLast License.

"We believe that this approach will empower our Company for rapid growth across the country as well as enabling us to penetrate the vast USA and European markets," stated Matthew Sacco, CEO of HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. Mr. Sacco further commented that the Joint Venture Plan for these 25 locations has been designed in a way that will have little to no dilution in the Company as well as accommodating the numerous requests the Company receives in Joint Venture interests for development of their Hearing Stores. "We receive numerous requests from potential customers, not only from Canada but also from the USA and Europe asking when we will be developing in their areas. Along with this, we also field inquiries from potential qualified business partners expressing interest in opening up new Hearing Stores and using our expertise in managing these stores," commented Mr. Sacco.

"In late April of this year, HearUSA Inc. announced that they had sold 23 of their Ontario locations for USD$23.7M. Our goal is to have 85 HearAtLast Stores opened within our Wal-Mart models and by licensing and opening up new locations together with our Joint Venture Partners; this will help us supercede the century mark which will ultimately create value for our shareholders," stated Mr. Sacco.

HearAtLast Focuses on Hearing Store Platform

Over the past several months HearAtLast has transformed its clinics located in select Wal-Mart stores throughout Canada into hearing boutiques, with the latest in amplified telephones, alarm clocks, wireless headphones and accessories for both the hearing and visually impaired.

This model that is poised to attract attention with the masses walking by our storefront locations will simply heighten awareness to lifestyle-oriented offerings. For too long consumers have not had access to this wide array of assistive listening devices at the retail level.

About HearAtLast
