New Science Fiction Tells of a Special Young Girl Born with Immense Power

MANNING, S.C. (PRWEB) December 22, 2011

Ever since Disney released the movie, Aladdin, people have developed this preconceived notion that genies have blue skin, wear cuffs and are able to grant three wishes. In his gripping book, The Aladdin Project, author Robert C. Winkles talks about a different kind of genie, gifted with aberrant capabilities that come with the redolence of responsibility, honor and duty.


Throughout history, people with special gifts have been used to perform extraordinary tasks. In modern times, these superhumans?also called ?genies??are part of an elite black-ops unit known as the Genie Squadron. Jillian Pfister is a young girl with immense power and possibly the most powerful genie ever born. She is inducted into The Aladdin Project, a part of the United States military responsible for the Genie Squad that covertly secures world peace while fighting factions similar to their own


As Jillian learns to harness her power, she must tread carefully and perpend on the repercussions of using her extraordinary gift. When the Aladdin Project is attacked, it is up to Jillian and her new comrades to save not only their country but also the world. But are the genies powerful enough to protect their home, loved ones and the people around them? Readers can find out as they witness the exhilarating events unfold in The Aladdin Project.

Bridgeport TX (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

OptiSense Networks, Inc., a leading provider of distribution automation intelligence announced today that OptiSense has signed an agreement with IMS Power Quality, a leading provider of supervision and control products for electrical energy, for exclusive distribution of the OptiSense? Medium Voltage Optical Sensor solution within the Latin American region.


?OptiSense is excited to be joining forces with such a renown and respected partner as IMS, a specialist in electrical supervision and control products.? says Stephen Prince, CEO of OptiSense. ?IMS offers 30 years of expertise with voltage, power quality, and power factor measurement instrumentation in highly-dynamic markets,? notes Prince. ?We are excited that IMS chose to integrate OptiSensors? into their power quality offerings for utilities seeking Volt/VAR Control, Conservation Voltage, and Energy Theft detection.?


In emerging markets such as Latin America and Asia, greater than 40% of electrical energy is not paid for. Additionally, power quality issues affect many of the cities within Latin America, adversely affecting manufacturers and others who contend with voltage deviations problems such as flicker, harmonics, voltage sags, and unbalances.


Elektro, a leading provider of electricity in S?o Paulo, Brazil notes that the cost of distribution disturbances has reached unprecedented proportions and the industrial sector is very motivated to reduce the cost through new solutions. 1


The distribution agreement with OptiSense gives IMS exclusive rights to distribute OptiSense Medium Voltage solutions throughout Latin America. IMS will also offer training to utilities to maximize the intelligence beyond the substation that OptiSensors? provide.


IMS Power Quality will be joining OptiSense? at DistribuTECH January 24-26 in San Antonio, Texas. OptiSense is displaying their 15kV, 25kV, 35kV, and 46 kV OptiSensors? ?on the line? at Booth 4329.
