Ten years ago, Shopatron founder Ed Stevens had a choice of where he wanted to live and do business. He sat down with his family, considered a number of cities and decided upon San Luis Obispo. "San Luis Obispo seemed like the perfect place,” said Stevens. “A great location, fantastic weather, good schools, a strong technical university and friendly people. What more could I want for both my business and my family?" Stevens had come up with a novel idea that would revolutionize the eCommerce industry and eventually become the preferred eCommerce solution for brands worldwide. The idea, based on his experience growing up in retail and owning a hobby brand, was simple—branded manufacturers can take advantage of the online sales channel and boost their retail distribution by sharing online sales with their trusted retail partners. |

A new article released by the journal NeuroImage features the results of a study that examined changes in gray matter volume (GMV) in the brains of children with dyslexia who received intensive reading instruction using Lindamood-Bell’s Seeing Stars® program for reading and spelling. The study, conducted by researchers from the Center for the Study of Learning, Georgetown University Medical Center, and Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, found that “training-induced changes” in GMV in the brain can be seen in a pediatric sample, and that the changes are accompanied by improvements in reading. Furthermore, changes in both reading skills and GMV were maintained after the training ended. |
