iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), the leader in delivering robotic technology-based solutions, today announced the Roomba 980 vacuum cleaning robot – iRobot’s most capable and best cleaning robotic vacuum to date. Roomba 980 is the first Roomba to combine adaptive navigation with visual localization, cloud connected app control, and increased cleaning power on carpets, helping people to keep cleaner floors throughout the entire home at the push of a button.
“With more than 14 million robots in people’s homes worldwide, iRobot is the global leader in automated home cleaning,” said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. “Roomba 980 is the next big step as it marks iRobot’s first cloud connected product with mapping capabilities for the consumer market. Leveraging the cloud and mapping technologies, robots gain a better understanding of their environment, and customers are provided with more control. Looking ahead, these technologies will also enable expanded capabilities for connected robots in the smart home.”
“Vacuum cleaning robots can’t rely on any one feature or technology to clean effectively,” said Christian Cerda, executive vice president and general manager of iRobot’s Home Robots business unit. “Vacuum performance, efficient navigation, adapting to ever-changing environments and cleaning under furniture where dirt is hiding are all important factors, and they must be balanced. Roomba 980 takes this into account to deliver convenient, customized, powerful cleaning assistance, each and every day.”

Strategie „Conquer New Waters“ treibt internationalen Ausbau noch schneller voran – China erstmals stärkster BRITA-Markt
Taunusstein, 17.05.2016. BRITA, weltweit ein Begriff für die Filtration von Trinkwasser, geht mit einem herausragenden wirtschaftlichen Erfolg in sein Jubiläumsjahr 2016. CEO Markus Hankammer, der das Familienunternehmen in zweiter Generation führt, sieht drei Gründe für die überaus positive Entwicklung: „An erster Stelle sind das die BRITA-Mitarbeiter in aller Welt, die mit ihrer engen Verbundenheit zum Unternehmen, ihrem Einsatz und ihrer Kreativität immer noch den einen wichtigen Schritt mehr gehen, durch den das Ziel erreicht wird. Dafür bin ich sehr dankbar. Dann spielt unsere Strategie ‘Conquer New Waters‘ eine wesentliche Rolle, die den zielgerichteten Ausbau unserer Geschäftsfelder sowohl geographisch als auch im Hinblick auf das Produktportfolio vorantreibt. Und drittens ist es die nachhaltige Produktlösung, die BRITA anbietet und deren Vorzüge Menschen in der ganzen Welt verstehen. Warum nicht einfach hygienisch einwandfreies Leitungswasser optimieren, statt Plastikwasserflaschen hin- und her zu transportieren und meist mit negativen Folgen für unseren Planeten und unsere Ozeane zu entsorgen. Bereits heute fließen mehr als 11 Milliarden Liter alternativ durch BRITA Wasserfilter und helfen so dabei, CO2 Emissionen zu verringern.“

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 34.6 million adults ages 18 and above do not have a high school diploma. In an effort to combat this critical issue, the Ad Council and the Dollar General Literacy Foundation joined today to launch new public service advertisements (PSAs) on behalf of their national GED Achievement campaign. This multimedia campaign is designed to provide high school dropouts the encouragement and information needed to begin the road to a GED diploma.
Recent data shows that students who drop out of high school tend to earn less and have a lower quality of life. Many of them must work multiple jobs just to support their family. Moreover, as of 2009, nearly 30% of adults with household incomes at or below the federal poverty line did not have a high school credential.

The day after Thanksgiving is the busiest of the year for Roto-Rooter’s residential plumbers. Big holiday meal preparation and cleanup can lead to a lot of unwanted waste in the kitchen drain and garbage disposal. Also, a house full of holiday guests who require additional clothes washing, showers and toilet flushes puts a strain on household plumbing.

In 2011 we started out as a non-profit organization in Shreveport, Louisiana. We’ve since begun dedicating ourselves to helping those in the Memphis, Tennessee, area with job preparation training and utility payment assistance. We operate a youth development program that collects school uniforms, coats and supplies for children who are in need – and that’s only the beginning. We also offer Bible study for those who desire to be nourished by the everlasting Word.
You see, we believe that our services all go hand-in-hand. When you know, understand and follow God’s Word, you’ll see opportunities that were previously invisible to your eyes. You’ll find your calling in life. You’ll be able to successfully support your household. And your children will know that there’s always hope in God’s hands. It starts with one simple step, and we’re aiming to be that catalyst for change.
