WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2016 / In a new white paper, the International Biometrics + Identity Association (IBIA) explains the reasons why only background checks that include FBI and state fingerprint holdings, in addition to other biographic searches, will ensure that Uber and Lyft have the information they need to adequately assess candidates for employment. By choosing to ignore the information held in these databases, Uber and Lyft are not fulfilling their responsibility to minimize public safety risks.

IBIA’s white paper provides data on the proven accuracy of fingerprint-based background checks; the quick turnaround times to process requests; the accessibility of the fingerprint collection service locations in the USA, and the ability to perform continuous vetting thanks to the FBI’s new Rap Back service.

“There are significant risks in relying solely on a biographic background check,” says Tovah LaDier, IBIA’s Managing Director, explaining that, “Biographic searches are vulnerable to data entry errors and attempts to use false or misleading biographic information to thwart detection.”

“Uber has created a business revolution based upon the use of technology,” said Tovah LaDier, who notes, “It is ironic Uber would prefer an antiquated and vulnerable process by relying solely on name-based background checks of its applicants.”

In the absence of a fingerprint-based background check, drivers with criminal arrest records are able to provide false biographic information to disguise their identity and background, thereby exposing the public to an avoidable level of risk. The popularity of a new business model for ride hiring does not justify exemption from statutes and regulations that exist to protect the safety and security of the traveling public.

Uber and Lyft’s stance is in sharp contrast to the widespread and growing use of fingerprint-based background checks. These checks are now required for employment in a wide variety of professions that involve the safety and security of the public, access to sensitive information, unescorted access to restricted areas, or unmonitored access to vulnerable populations.

Fingerprint background checks are required for employment in a long list of occupations including taxi drivers, airport workers, teachers, real estate professionals, mortgage brokers, security guards, day care workers, home health aides, nurses, government employees, and even most school volunteers.

Despite numerous government mandates at local, state, and national levels to include Uber and Lyft drivers among this list, the companies have strongly fought such regulation, and have pulled out of cities that have instituted such public safety measures, exposing their customers to avoidable risk.

ReleaseID: 441100

LONDON, ENGLAND / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2016 / Nobody knows just how big the lithium market could be.

The market’s demand for longer lasting batteries in consumer electronics is insatiable, and increasing the use of lithium steadily.

Add to that an entirely new global industry – electric cars, which use many times more lithium per vehicle than electronics – and the scale has been tipped.

There is now a race by lithium battery producers (especially in China) and end-users like Tesla to secure a stable, long term supply of this essential metal. Metal hoarding and demand is driving up prices to $15,000 per tonne or higher on the spot market, vs. only $5,000 a couple years ago.

“This surge in price and demand will deliver big profits for the companies who can get properly positioned,” says Paul Matysek, Executive Chairman of Lithium X Energy Corp. (TSXV: LIX), one of the rising stars in the new lithium space.

“It’s an energy revolution,” Matysek says. He’s one of the most successful mining entrepreneurs alive, having built and sold companies in four different commodities. His Goldrock Mines, operating in the same Argentine province as Lithium X, was taken out last week in a deal worth over $100 million. Potash One and Energy Metals, more of Matysek’s miners, sold for nearly $2.5 billion combined. Matysek was founder and CEO of Lithium One, which was taken out in 2012 for $112 million. He says that the Market is much more bullish to lithium investments now.

“The use of batteries, the proliferation of cell phones and all manner of electrified gadgets just was not reflected in the lithium market then,” Matysek says. “There wasn’t such a demand in 2012, but there surely and clearly is today.”

Goldman Sachs has described lithium as the “new gasoline” and it’s arguably the hottest commodity in the world right now.

For lithium miners, this is shaping up as the beginning of a spectacular payday. And those with the most exciting potential are new entrants working to disrupt the handful of giants that have traditionally controlled the lithium space.

One of the disrupters is Lithium X, which has serious projects in two of the best-known lithium districts. The company has a development property in Argentina, a sweet spot in Latin America’s prolific “Lithium Triangle,” and an exploration program in Clayton Valley, Nevada, home to North America’s only lithium production.

The lithium sector is undergoing fundamental changes, and investors who can track the shifts in real time are poised to capitalize. Smart money and institutional investors have begun to take notice, so affordable options for the retail investor may not be around for much longer.

10 Reasons to Keep an Eye or (get charged up) on Lithium X

1. These are early days in a big trend. Demand for lithium is rising dramatically. Goldman Sachs predicts that for every 1% rise in electric vehicle market share, lithium demand rises by 70,000 tons annually. The investment bank expects the lithium market could triple in size by 2025 – based only on electric vehicle demand. There’s a global scramble to secure lithium supplies, and it’s not just the world’s largest battery producers. A host of end users will require the element, one of the biggest being electric carmakers. Tesla’s Gigafactory in Nevada is just the beginning – a piece of the puzzle, but still a very small piece. Chinese billionaire Jia Yueting has stepped onto Tesla’s playing field with his Faraday Future electric car startup. Apple and Google are getting into the game, too. Several rival battery gigafactories are emerging, with some major players even considering getting into lithium mining themselves.

2. Scarce opportunities for investors. If lithium is the new gasoline, there are few lithium investing vehicles for investors to hitch a ride on. The three largest lithium producers – Albemarle (NYSE: ALB), SQM and FMC (NYSE: FMC) — are diversified chemicals businesses. Lithium accounts for 15% or less of their annual revenues. So there’s a race to get new supply online as quickly as possible. And of the roughly 16 new lithium development projects that could be producing by 2020, only a few could be selling lithium products within two years. Lithium X is on track to be one of those.

3. Experienced partners and personnel for initial ponding facility. Lithium X can earn up to 80% of the Sal de los Angeles deposit, a large high-grade lithium deposit in Argentina. Argentina has a new investment friendly President and Salta province – where Sal de los Angeles is located – is a pro-mining jurisdiction. SESA, a consortium of Argentina-based engineering and construction firms highly experienced in lithium production, has entered into a joint-venture agreement with Lithium X to develop a lithium ponding facility at Sal de los Angeles.

4. Low valuation compared to nearby companies with advanced stage projects. These are early days for Lithium X and the startup company is currently valued under US$85 million. Lithium X is located in an area where other salar’s have valuations well north of this and up to $1 billion.

5. A key foothold in North America’s lithium ground zero. Lithium X has the largest land position in Nevada’s Clayton Valley, the only producing lithium area in the entire United States. Lithium X has over 15,000 acres in Clayton Valley near Albemarle’s Silver Peak mine. Lithium X’s ground is just three hours from Tesla’s (NYSE: TSLA) Gigafactory. The company entered North America’s lithium land rush early, and recently received work permits for four drill holes in Clayton Valley. An important detail: Clayton Valley is a closed basin, and Lithium X has the largest option in this basin. So their land position is superior to many of the newbies jumping on the Nevada lithium bandwagon but are outside the basin.

6. Brilliant team giving the market what it wants. Founder and CEO Brian Paes-Braga is a tireless team builder and communicator who has built Lithium X from an idea to almost $100 million market cap in less than one year. Executive Chairman Paul Matysek, a billion-dollar resource deal-maker and developer, is with Paes-Braga every step of the way. Paul’s last four mining ventures were spectacular successes, selling for a total of just under $2.5 billion. VP Project Development Will Randall is an Argentine geologist with a decade of lithium experience. Randall has previously negotiated joint ventures with some of the leading lithium producers and global mining companies. If that’s not all, mining legend Frank Giustra is a co-founder of Lithium X and his Fiore Management provides advisory services. Giustra has been involved in the creation of some of the world’s top gold and silver miners and is a leading philanthropist. Watch any Lionsgate Films recently? Giustra founded that firm, too.

7. Strong financial structure. Lithium X has kept a tight share structure, with less than 66 million shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis. There are no warrants overhanging the stock either. The company has raised over $13 million — at progressively higher prices — since going public late last year and is fully funded for all planned 2016 activities with over $10 million in the bank.

8. Bullish technicals. Lithium X has one of the most explosive stock charts right now, but has recently been bumping along at support levels. Momentum is a powerful force in the markets, and Lithium X appears to have it.

9. Powerful catalysts. Lithium X is making rapid progress to achieve pilot production, and followers of the company can expect plenty of news flow in the interim. The company plans to release a new resource and updated economics on Sal de los Angeles by late August 2016. A drilling program is planned in Nevada. And LIX is on the lookout for additional projects.

10. Timing. The key to successful investing in resource cycles is to sell out before the market turns. That’s exactly what Lithium X Executive Chairman Paul Matysek did with his previous lithium, potash, gold and uranium companies, making billions for shareholders in the process. While the lithium trend shows no signs of slowing down, the management team at Lithium X knows how to quit when they are ahead — to the benefit of all stakeholders.

These are early days for Lithium X, but the future looks similarly bright – especially if this smart team with well-positioned properties can execute on the coming lithium boom, the way they have in the past.

WAUKESHA, WI / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2016 / Telkonet, Inc. (OTCQB: TKOI), creator of the EcoSmart platform of intelligent room automation solutions supporting the emerging Internet of Things (IoT), will introduce the first voice-controlled capability for hotel guestroom automation this month at HITEC 2016, the world’s largest hospitality technology show. EcoSmart Voice will allow a hotel guest to control the lights, shades, power outlets, temperature settings and more by voicing commands, such as “turn off all lights” or “raise the temperature two degrees.”

“We’re very excited to show the world how voice-control will revolutionize the way hotel guests interact with technology,” said Jason Tienor, President and CEO of Telkonet. “Telkonet strives to help our hotel customers keep pace with the rapid changes in technology that guests have come to expect. Introducing EcoSmart Voice at HITEC 2016 allows us to begin a dialogue with major hoteliers on how they might implement this new innovative component of our EcoSmart platform.”

With millennial travelers accounting for a greater percentage of hotel guest counts, hotels have had to work to keep up with their tech-savvy desires. Guests expect the same level of comfort and technology in a hotel room as they have in their home. This means more connected devices that are easy to interact with to complete desired in-room functions, such as controlling the thermostat or turning off the lights.

Voice recognition technology is no longer a fun gimmick, but rather a behavior-changing force in consumer-based wireless devices. Made ubiquitous on mobile devices with Apple’s Siri and Google Voice, the integration of voice-control in the home, and now the commercial space, was a natural progression. The EcoSmart Voice capability is vendor neutral and integrates with third-party devices like the Amazon Echo, managed by the EcoCentral SaaS dashboard.

“By integrating our products with the latest technology on the market, we’re showing our customers that we’re able to stay in front of their business needs and provide needed solutions,” added Tienor. “We previously achieved a groundbreaking integration with the Samsung HMS TV and remote control and now seek to do the same with EcoSmart Voice.”
