http://www.gsnmagazine.com en http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/1008.html September 2, 2008 It's that time of the year again. Big trade shows and conventions are in the offing -- and that's true whether it's the security business, the advertising game or the TV and movie business. There used to be a rule of thumb among the ink-stained wretches who chronicled the excesses of the moguls who ran the TV networks and Hollywood studios: You could tell how good a particular networkâ€s new TV season would be, or how promising the latest slate of a studioâ€s movies was, by how much they piled on the shellfish at the lavish unveiling parties for the TV advertisers and the movie theater owners. In other words, bountiful hors dâ€oeuvres meant promising new shows and new flicks; stingy offerings suggested just the opposite: hard times ahead. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/999.html August 22, 2008 Atmospheric Glow Technologies Inc. (AGT), a Knoxville, TN-based plasma technology company, pleaded guilty this week to 10 counts of unlawfully exporting 10 different ™defense articles™ to a citizen of the Peopleâ€s Republic of China in 2005 and 2006 in violation of the Arms Export Control Act, according to a Department of Justice statement. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/975.html August 20, 2008 Government employees who might worry about unauthorized individuals scanning sensitive or secret documents and transmitting them, via an office photocopying machine, to unauthorized recipients outside the office, can breathe a sigh of relief. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/972.html August 19, 2008 From now on bad guys need to be even more careful about what they touch. They might be leaving not only fingerprints at the scene, but trace amounts of whatever they last handled â€" illegal drugs, say, or explosives. Now thereâ€s a new, commercially available technique that captures those substances. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/969.html August 19, 2008 In a faltering economy, beset by uncertainty, homeland security is one field where bright prospects await graduating college students entering the work force. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/963.html August 18, 2008 If thereâ€s any doubt that the Democratic presidential convention, beginning next week in Denver, requires state-of-the-art disaster preparedness, like the kind DHS recently provided to 40 Colorado-area medical personnel, the case of the Canadian man found dead with a pound of cyanide in his hotel room should dispel it. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/962.html August 18, 2008 With the Democratic presidential convention scheduled to start in one week in Denver, more than 40 Colorado healthcare professionals have just returned from intensive homeland security disaster training at the Center for Domestic Preparedness, in Anniston, AL. The four-day program was designed to teach the medicos how to respond should a large-scale public health threat or emergency occur during the Democratic National Convention, according to a statement from Kaiser Permanente, the well-known health-care provider, which sent four senior Colorado-area nurses to the training. http://www.gsnmagazine.com/cms/resources/corporate-news/952.html August 15, 2008 Samsung Techwin announced last month that beginning immediately all North American sales and marketing of Samsung Techwin products will be handled through Samsung Opto-Electronics America, Inc. (SOA), rather than through its existing distributor, Advanced Digital Security Solutions, Inc., which had been marketing its CCTV products under the name Samsung 360.
