Sorcery(TM) Casts A Spell On Gamers Everywhere Today, Exclusively For The PlayStation(R)3 (PS3(TM)) System

Newest Addition To The PlayStation(R)Move Motion Controller Software Line-Up Brings The World Of Wizardry To Life With A Magical Experience For Players Of All Ages

FOSTER CITY, Calif., May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC (SCEA) announced today the North American launch of Sorcery(TM), exclusively for the PlayStation(R)3 computer entertainment system.  Developed by The Workshop, in collaboration with Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS) Santa Monica Studio, Sorcery puts the power in the players' hands using the PlayStation(R)Move motion controller to conjure and command powerful magic as they brave the dark world of the Faerie Kingdoms.  On their journey, players will encounter a multitude of enemies, solve ingenious puzzles, learn powerful spells, and craft strange potions immersing them in a unique fantasy adventure like never before. 

"Sorcery has remained one of the most eagerly anticipated titles for PlayStation 3 since it was first announced and we're thrilled to offer this unique title to gamers everywhere today," said Guy Longworth, Senior Vice President, PlayStation Brand Marketing, SCEA.  "Built from the ground up with PlayStation Move in mind from the beginning, Sorcery takes full advantage of our motion controller's precision to provide a compelling gaming experience that is sure to capture the imaginations of players of all ages."

The Sorcery feature set begins with the PlayStation Move motion controller, which players use as a magic wand to cast extraordinary spells, brew enchanted elixirs, solve clever puzzles, and defeat the forces of darkness.  The gesture-based casting system allows users to chain together basic spells into powerful combinations--freeze and shatter enemies, electrocute them with lightning called down from the heavens, or incinerate them in a lethal firestorm.  Players can also collect magic items, learn new spells, and concoct upgrade potions to turn their humble apprentice into an unstoppable magic force.

In the Sorcery world, the Nightmare Queen has broken the ancient pact with mankind and threatens to cover the land in eternal night.  As a young sorcerer's apprentice, it is up to the player to master the arcane arts and fight back the foul creatures of this magical realm.  You play as Finn, the teenage apprentice of an older wizard named Dash.  Finn has a great deal of promise as a sorcerer, but he's impatient and undisciplined.  Dash's careful and studious approach to magic has left Finn tired and desperate for more advanced real spell-casting.  As the story begins, Erline (Dash's talking cat) taunts Finn into traveling with her to the land of the dead.  She expects him to flee in fear when he sees his first ghost, but instead Finn discovers what he's always suspected--he's a natural-born spell caster.  As Finn, players can explore five unique realms, each with their own enemies and challenges.  Descend into the Kingdom of The Dead to battle the Banshee and the Restless Dead warriors, venture into the Endless Stair where vicious bogeys are wreaking havoc, brave the Faerie Forest, raid the Slumbering Palace to free Lord Fey, the Faerie King, and much more.

Sorcery is a single-player action adventure experience that has an ESRB rating of "E10+" for Everyone 10 and older.  It requires the PlayStation Move motion controller and PlayStation Eye camera, along with the PlayStation Move navigation controller or DUALSOCK(R)3 or SIXAXIS(TM) wireless controller.  For more information about the ESRB, visit http://www.esrb.org.  For more information about Sorcery, visit http://www.sorcery.com/.

HIT Entertainment & Sakar Expand Thomas & Friends® to Consumer Electronics in the U.S.

New Collection Being Created for #1 Preschool Property

EDISON, N.J., May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- HIT Entertainment and Sakar International are riding the rails together with a new license agreement that will bring the popular Thomas & Friends® franchise into the consumer electronics space in North America. The license authorizes Sakar to develop, manufacture and market an extensive collection of branded merchandise ranging from clock radios, walkie talkies, text messengers and boom boxes to digital cameras, flashlights, and video game and computer accessories - all featuring the friendly faces of the beloved Thomas the Tank Engine® and his engine friends.

The agreement covers the U.S. and Canada and builds on the long-running success of Thomas & Friends. As of early 2012, according to The NPD Group, the brand has ranked as the #1 preschool toy property in both the U.S. and the UK for 11 and 12 consecutive years, respectively. In the U.S., Thomas & Friends also holds the #1 spot for overall top preschool property and was a top 10 property in the entire toy industry for 2011. 

"Consumer electronics is an expanding licensing category for Thomas & Friends, and we're thrilled to develop this new range with Sakar for today's preschoolers and families whose lifestyles are immersed with technology," said Gabriela Arenas, Vice President, Consumer Products, Thomas Division - The Americas, and Latin America, HIT Entertainment. "With Sakar's experience in developing branded electronics and accessories for the preschool market, we will be able to establish a presence in this critical space and give tech-savvy Thomas fans new ways to engage with their favorite #1 engine." 

"In our work with other brands, we have found that preschoolers are as interested in electronics and digital products as older children. That should be no surprise, considering the kids are playing with Mom's iPhone and Dad's iPad long before they can read," said Liza Abrams, Sakar Vice President of Licensing. "The enduring popularity and endearing personalities of the Thomas & Friends franchise provide a wonderful platform for developing products in this area."

The first products in the collection will be released in early 2013.

Qazzoo.com Seeks to Transform Real Estate Industry Lead Generation

Reverse Search Engine Makes Searching, Selecting, Connecting People to Businesses More Transparent; Efficient

ANNAPOLIS, Md., May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Qazoo.com, a new startup service, is looking to make the lead generation for businesses more transparent by reversing the way local businesses connect with potential customers. Qazzoo.com is the world's first consumer created reverse search engine, where consumers create profiles in order to request the products and services they want and local businesses are then able to search for local consumers they believe they can help.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120313/MM65288LOGO )

"The reception since last weeks launch at the National Association of Realtors conference has been fantastic," said CEO Michael Urbanski of the product's launch at the conference. "The real estate community is embracing the idea of self-empowerment. At times there were real estate pros from all over the country lined up three and four people deep, waiting for their turn to search for potential home sellers and buyers in their local area." Website traffic has doubled every day since the launch last Wednesday.

Qazzoo.com removes the hurdles of online business generation by allowing real estate professionals to search, select, and directly connect with consumers with whom they have a matching product or service.

The site currently focuses on developing relationships for all facets of the real estate industry, including real estate agents, loan and mortgage companies, and credit repair services, offering a win-win for consumers and local businesses alike. 

Consumers create free profiles that include information about their location and the homes or properties they want. Consumers can choose how much information they share, and can modify or remove their profile at any time. The more detail consumers include in their profiles, the higher their profiles appear in the search results.

Conversely, local real estate agents and businesses using Qazzoo.com can quickly and easily search consumer profiles that fit their particular criteria. Businesses can then view in-depth information about each profile for free, and connect with them by claiming "shares" of that user's profile.

Qazzoo.com received several commitments to syndicate its search results to nearly 1,000 real estate websites during the two day convention.

"Lead generation in real estate can be problematic as agents don't always know where their consumer information comes from, or even how qualified the leads are," says CEO Michael Urbanski. "With Qazzoo.com, we take a completely different approach to creating real business opportunities. We allow local real estate professionals to see exactly what the consumer wants, allowing them to better qualify the consumer and then claim the consumer's profile to connect with them. There are no surprises, just people connecting with people with common interests and goals."

To prevent businesses from spamming consumers, user profiles are broken up into a system of "shares," which limits the number of businesses who can contact them. This ensures businesses provide highly relevant offers and prevents consumers from receiving extraneous offers unrelated to their needs.

"When you boil it all down, everything is lead generation. The real estate industry is no different from SEO, PPC, and Daily Deal sites. Qazzoo has simplified the process by providing an open, direct approach for both consumers and merchants. The platform is powered by the consumer, and is open to everyone to connect with each other without all the superfluous smoke and mirrors, technology and expense of traditional online advertising," says Urbanski.

Due to its growing success, Qazzoo.com expects to expand to other industries in the coming months. The company plans to roll out its next vertical in the first quarter of 2013.

About Qazzoo.com

Designed to improve the online experience for consumers and small businesses, Qazzoo is a consumer powered search engine that connects consumers with local merchants. Qazzoo was designed to bring purpose to online search in order to save time, money and energy for both consumers and merchants.

Qazzoo was created by several of the key executives of Heavy Hammer, developers of the patented MIMIAN software for geographically-focused network advertising.  Based out of Annapolis, Maryland, Heavy Hammer holds an extensive portfolio of geo-targeted patents online and has a number of other patents relating to online software and business generation.

Denver Patients Can Now Easily Find Doctors and Schedule Appointments Online

Free Service for Patients Makes Medical Appointments Instantly Available Online

DENVER, May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Today ZocDoc introduces its service to the Rocky Mountain region, offering instant online access to appointments with Greater Denver's leading doctors, including those affiliated with HealthONE. At launch, this free service provides patients with their choice of thousands of available appointments with participating primary care doctors, obstetrician-gynecologists, dermatologists and eye doctors throughout the Denver metropolitan area. Additional doctors, specialties, and appointment times will be added in coming months.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111128/NY11439LOGO )

To use this free service, patients can visit the ZocDoc website (http://www.zocdoc.com) or use the ZocDoc app to enter their location, insurance plan, and the type of healthcare provider they would like to see. ZocDoc then shows each doctor's schedule in real time, along with verified qualifications, doctor reviews, photos, and more to help patients choose the practitioner who best fits their needs. Patients simply select a timeslot and complete a brief checkout process to book an appointment. ZocDoc sends email and text message appointment reminders for added convenience. The service eliminates time-consuming phone calls so that patients can book anywhere, anytime, even when the doctor's office is closed.

ZocDoc's mission to improve healthcare access is made possible through strategic partnerships with leading organizations like HealthONE, who is committed to providing its patients with the highest level of service. Many primary care doctors and OB/GYNs affiliated with HealthONE have signed on to offer appointments via ZocDoc, allowing HealthONE patients to enjoy around-the-clock access to their providers' calendars, and the convenience of online scheduling.

"We know our patients are busy people and taking time for personal health can sometimes be challenging," said Dr. Alan Burgess, Medical Director for HealthONE Physician Care. "By partnering with ZocDoc, we are able to provide hassle-free online appointment booking wherever our patients live, work, or play. Patients can make a doctor's appointment after the office has closed and they don't have to worry about when the office can fit them in since they are able to see doctors' real-time availability and can simply click to book. Our doctors and patients are very pleased with ZocDoc after these first few weeks with the service."

Denver residents wait more than 15 days on average for medical appointments, according to a study by healthcare search and consulting firm Merritt Hawkins. ZocDoc's unique system shows doctors' availability in real-time, and makes open appointment times instantly accessible online. The system thus reduces wait times for patients and increases efficiency for medical providers. Forty percent of all appointments scheduled by ZocDoc users occur within one day, and 60 percent of ZocDoc appointments take place within three days.

"We are excited to bring ZocDoc to Denver, helping patients in the area receive the fast access to medical care that they need and deserve," said Cyrus Massoumi, founder & CEO of ZocDoc. "The area's leading physicians, including those affiliated with HealthONE, have embraced ZocDoc to provide better service to both new and existing patients."

The Denver region is the 19th area to welcome ZocDoc. The service currently offers medical appointments in major metropolitan areas including Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami-Palm Beach, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Tampa Bay, and Washington, DC.

ETS and Hobsons Unveil TOEFL® Search Service at NAFSA 2012 Annual Conference

First-to-market tool offers international recruiting data

PRINCETON, N.J., May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- ETS, the creator of the TOEFL® test, and Hobsons, the leader in recruitment, communication, and student success solutions for colleges and universities, will showcase the anticipated TOEFL ® Search Service, an online tool connecting higher education institutions with prospective international students from around the world. A sneak preview of the new searchable database will be revealed at the NAFSA 2012 Annual Conference & Expo as more than 8,000 international education professionals convene in Houston next week.

Administered by ETS, the TOEFL test is the most widely accepted English-language assessment worldwide, recognized by more than 8,500 institutions in more than 130 countries. To date, more than 27 million students globally have taken the test -- a crucial first step toward higher education taught in English. The TOEFL Search Service is the first tool to tap TOEFL test-taker data for student recruitment purposes.

The TOEFL Search Service will offer admissions officials access to an expanding database of more than 200,000 recent TOEFL test takers who have opted in to learn more about higher education opportunities abroad. Admissions officers can search the user-friendly database using up to 26 criteria to customize results and connect with potential targeted applicants. Major features of the service, which will be powered by Hobsons, include:

    --  Web-based search capabilities that can be automated to secure real-time
        data about prospective students, driving timely and accurate recruitment
        decision-making
    --  Data that easily integrates with leading campus management systems,
        enabling easy electronic, print or telephone contact with potential
        students, streamlining outreach efforts
    --  Insight into the applicant pool by customizing search results by an
        institution's preferred criteria, such as country or region of the
        world, TOEFL scores, planned level of study, planned date of enrollment,
        or desired field of study to ensure recruitment efforts map directly to
        enrollment goals
"For the first time ever, the TOEFL Search Service connects colleges and universities with TOEFL test takers interested in learning more about higher education opportunities abroad," comments David Hunt, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of ETS's Global Division. "This is a powerful new recruitment tool to assist admissions officers in expanding targeted international candidate pools."

The TOEFL Search Service will officially launch in July 2012, as international recruitment efforts gear up for the academic year.

"The TOEFL Search Service will enable international recruitment admissions teams to gain competitive advantage using previously untapped information," says Craig Heldman, Chief Executive Officer of Hobsons. "Hobsons' collaboration with ETS will arm recruiters with targeted recruitment data that can be easily integrated with existing student information systems to help schools meet enrollment goals and shape incoming classes."

Cloudant's Industry-First Data Layer as a Service Now Global

Big data experts expand global presence to provide developers with a better alternative to scale-it-yourself databases

BOSTON, May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloudant today announced the first global data layer as a service, with an expanded data center presence that is fueling customer and corporate growth. The Cloudant data layer gives developers of big data and other data-driven web and mobile applications the world's most powerful solution for storing, distributing, serving, and analyzing application data on a global scale.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120509/NE04144LOGO )

Cloudant's global data layer network now includes strategic data center locations across Europe, Asia, and North America. The global data network strategy delivers unmatched performance, scalability, and availability for big data and other data-driven applications that typically have a highly distributed user base. This private network is also critical to delivering a high quality of service that customers demand while being a key driver to Cloudant's rapid growth as a company.

Currently, there are over 7,000 users of the Cloudant data layer worldwide. Last quarter, the company raised monthly recurring revenue 149 percent quarter-over-quarter and grew its active sales pipeline 412 percent over the same period. Compared to Q4 2011, weekly customer sign-ups to the Cloudant data layer have doubled. To support this growth, the company has expanded its executive team and moved its headquarters from Somerville, Mass., to Boston.

"Since migrating our Social analytics and advertising platform from Postgres to Cloudant last year, our database has grown over 20 times larger, to 25TB, and we haven't had to change a line of code or hire any database operations people to do it," said Ben Straley, CEO of Meteor Solutions. "From an organizational perspective, Cloudant has helped us stay lean and focused on developing new ways to meet customer needs. We're very pleased with the system Cloudant has built and the work they do on our behalf."

New Additions to Cloudant

Cloudant's newest data center in Amsterdam builds on the company's relationship with SoftLayer, a leading provider of global cloud infrastructure, and signals a growing demand for data-driven applications that can scale from thousands to millions of users overnight, and across the world, while providing fast access to large datasets. This scalability improves the overall user experience for applications, with data delivered closer to where users need it, and helps developers elegantly address rapid usage spikes, such as the "App Store effect."

To continue this growth, Cloudant has added experienced leadership to its executive team. In December 2011, the company appointed Derek Schoettle as CEO. Schoettle is a veteran software and Internet industry executive who was most recently a sales VP at analytic database leader Vertica Systems, Inc., and later at HP. Cloudant also added Andy Ellicott as vice president of marketing. He has 20 years of experience bringing pioneering data management and application development technology companies to market, including Vertica, VoltDB, Kalido, Bowstreet, Object Design/eXcelon, and Easel. Another Vertica veteran, Andy Palmer, joined the Cloudant Board of Directors in February 2012. Palmer has led two IPOs in the past 20 years and was co-founder and founding CEO of Vertica, a company he led through its acquisition by HP.

"Organizations large and small are realizing that managing the data layer with their own resources can be technically complex, time intensive, and costly," said Schoettle. "This problem increases exponentially when you want to scale availability of that data globally. The expansion of the Cloudant data layer solves this problem and opens a new world of possibilities for developers to create the most dynamic Web applications possible."

About Cloudant

Cloudant provides developers of big data and other data-driven web and mobile applications with the world's first globally distributed "data layer as a service" for loading, storing, analyzing, and distributing application data. The Cloudant Data Layer is a managed service that helps developers to eliminate the delays, costs, and distractions inherent in working with databases and their administrators, while providing unmatched scalability, availability, and performance. This capability accelerates time-to-market and time-to-innovation, because it frees developers from the mechanics of data management so they can focus exclusively on creating great applications. Cloudant is privately held and backed by top-tier investors including Avalon Ventures and Y Combinator. For more information, visit https://cloudant.com.

Clean House and Choose Carbonite for Online Backup

BOSTON, May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- With spring cleaning well under way,  Carbonite, Inc. (NASDAQ: CARB), a leading provider of online backup solutions for consumers and small to medium sized businesses, reminds people that  -  when they tidy up their digital files  -  they should consider the importance of online backup for keeping important documents, photos and music safe and secure. 

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120124/NE40289LOGO )

Recent studies have found that half of Americans have lost or accidentally deleted files from their primary computer; and that one-third admits that they have never backed up their computers, or haven't done so in more than a year.* While it's important to sort through family photos or organize home office files, cleaning up your digital files does not ensure that these documents are protected. Carbonitebacks up computer files automatically so you can set it and forget it; it's affordable and runs in the background without disturbing other programs. Should you experience a hard drive crash or purchase a new computer, Carbonite makes it easy to restore files, and ensures you haven't lost any important documents, photos or files. 

As you round out your digital cleaning, you'll want to protect your files with a service that is easy to manage. From syncing services that share files across devices but offer limited free storage space, to cloud storage, which saves files online but requires constant management every time a document is updated, there are a number of options to access your data. However, automatic online backup is the safest and easiest way to ensure your important files are always protected and recoverable.

"Spring is a popular time to think about organization and this can include a digital clean up too," said Tom Murray, senior vice president of marketing for Carbonite. "However, as you organize your files, it's important to remember to protect them as well.  Storage and sync are helpful, but online backup services are the best way to make sure your files are automatically safe."

In addition to providing an easy restore process alongside automatic and secure backup protection, Carbonite online backup also offers "anytime, anywhere" access to backed up data so that you can easily access files from any computer, smartphone or other internet-connected device.

GreatCall Raises Awareness for Public Safety and Security with Donation to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children

Company to Donate $1 for Each Sale of 5Star Urgent Response - The Mobile Personal Safety Device that Gets You the Help You Need, Whenever You Need It, Wherever You Go

SAN DIEGO, May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GreatCall, Inc., a leader in wireless services that enables its customers to stay connected, safe and healthy, today announced its commitment to help improve child safety through their support of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC).  As part of a new partnership, GreatCall will donate $1 to NCMEC for each 5Star Urgent Response device sold.  This announcement comes in time for National Missing Children's Day, which has been observed on May 25th since it was first proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 and serves as a reminder to the nation to make child safety a priority.

John Walsh and his wife, Reve, are co-founders of NCMEC, which was created in 1984 following the abduction and murder of their 6-year-old son Adam.  Today, NCMEC is the leading nonprofit in the country that deals with the issues of missing children and sexual exploitation of children including providing valuable resources to law enforcement, educators, parents, children and others in the United States and internationally.

In a nationwide effort, John Walsh is promoting 5Star Urgent Response as an important element to increasing the safety of every family. "5Star truly changes the game on personal safety.  This groundbreaking product can literally save lives, and after 30 years of victim advocacy, I finally have a tool to share, and to keep families and children safe," said Walsh.

"We are honored to be working in partnership with an organization as incredible as the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children to help keep our children safe and better protected," said Bill Yates, VP Marketing and Sales at GreatCall. "Together with the National Center, we're committed to helping people be more prepared with 5Star Urgent Response. We as a company will continue to offer technologies that always empower users to feel safe, secure and confident in any situation they may find themselves in."

The donation will help NCMEC in their efforts to find missing children and help prevent child abduction and sexual exploitation. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, though many are recovered quickly, an estimated 800,000 children are reported missing each year - more than 2,000 children every day. An estimated 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 10 boys will be sexually victimized before age 18.

"Helping keep children safe is a responsibility that we all share," said Ernie Allen, President and CEO of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. "We are grateful to the GreatCall team for taking the initiative to get involved and for serving as a role model for corporations to encourage change and make a difference in the lives of children."

GreatCall's 5Star Urgent Responder Keeps Families Safe
The 5Star Urgent Responder is a first-of-its-kind wireless safety device that is an easy, convenient, and affordable way to better protect yourself or those closest to you, particularly children.

By simply pressing the button on the Responder, a child who may be lost, scared or confused can be immediately connected to highly-trained Certified Response Agents who will identify them and their location, conference in family or friends, dispatch 9-1-1 emergency service, access a nurse, or provide any additional assistance, if needed.

Key features also include:

    --  Online child locator - parents can login and find the location of the
        device on a map
    --  Lightweight, and portable - easily fits in a child's pocket or clips to
        a backpack
    --  Personal profile - Emergency Response agents know who your child is and
        any important details in an emergency situation such as medications
        taken or known allergies
    --  2-way communication - your child is actually speaking with an agent who
        will assess the situation and get them the help they need
    --  Peace of mind - when you can't be there for them

Goodman Report Sees Significant Logistics Opportunity from the Rapid Global Growth in e-Retailing

SYDNEY, May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- An e-retailing research report commissioned by Goodman Group (Goodman) has highlighted that online shopping now accounts for almost a fifth of all purchases in developed markets and is growing between 15% and 20% per annum. The growth rate in developing economies is far higher, with China for example currently experiencing around 75% growth a year.

The comprehensive research report on the global online shopping market was conducted by Transport Intelligence, one of the leading providers of research on the global logistics industry, and focused on the key areas of:

    +          Take-up rates and popularity of
               online shopping around the
               world;
    +          The impact of the growth in e-
               retailing on logistics
               operations in developed and
               developing markets;
    +          The warehousing requirements and
               operations of some of the main
               e-retailing players; and
    +          Factors that will play a role in
               the growth of the industry.
Highlights from the study are today being published in a White Paper entitled 'Logistics of Online Shopping - Where the Real Opportunities Lie'.  Containing the latest stats and insights gained from canvassing the opinions of e-retailers, logistics companies and developers, the report provides the most comprehensive overview of the sector of its kind. The White Paper is available on Goodman's website, click here to view.

The report showed that at a time when retail sales in many markets have been sluggish, internet retailing has grown rapidly and this shift in consumer attitude has brought enormous benefits to the global logistics market. With growth in excess of 10% per annum in developed economies and more than 30% per annum in many less developed areas, e-retailing is at present in the rapid growth phase, with little sign of leveling off, the report said.

In line with the rapid growth in e-retailing around the world, it has been estimated that the global e-commerce market could be valued as much as US$1 trillion in 2013 and up to US$1.4 trillion by 2015.

In developed markets, the US is currently the largest e-retailing market in the world, with 170 million users spending on average US$1,000 each per annum and according to Forrester Research is estimated to grow to approximately US$279 billion by 2015. Similarly, Europe which is growing at around 16% a year is estimated to be valued at over US$184 billion by 2015.

This compares with emerging markets such as China, which currently has more than 150 million users, each spending on average US$200 to US$250 a year. The increasing number of middle class Chinese, with rising incomes and greater demand for western goods is seen as the main driver for China becoming a major e-commerce market, which Boston Consulting Group has estimated to be worth around US$305 billion by 2015.

Goodman's Group CEO, Mr Greg Goodman said, "The research has enabled us to better understand the key drivers in the e-retailing market globally and the trends that are shaping the industry, including logistics operators. What is very apparent is that there is no 'one size fits all' approach to optimising distribution efficiency, with e-retailers in different markets adopting very different fulfilment and distribution strategies."

To highlight this point, in China for example, the lack of infrastructure and limited provision of logistics are key factors as they have not kept pace with the growth in e-retailing, and service gaps are widespread, the report said. Logistics costs in China are in excess of 20% of GDP, more than double that in Europe, and outside of the major cities logistics offerings are almost non-existent. This has led to e-retailers developing a far wider network of facilities, aiming to get 'closer to the customer'.

By contrast, in developed regions where logistics infrastructure is relatively sophisticated, geographic factors determine the distribution strategies that e-retailers are adopting, ranging from overnight delivery from a single distribution point, to utilising multiple distribution points and duplicating main inventory lines. This highly fragmented situation has led to e-retailers developing their own fulfilment centres rather than relying on logistics operators, and dedicated purpose built facilities are being increasingly demanded.

"The report's findings confirm that there is strong demand for high quality, built-to-suit warehousing solutions amid the rapid growth in this sector. This presents a range of opportunities for property groups like Goodman, who understand local market dynamics and have the specialist expertise and experience to respond to the specific property needs of individual e-retailers and third party logistics providers," Mr Goodman added.

As one of the largest global industrial property groups, Goodman has world-class expertise in developing tailored logistics and warehousing solutions, and is a leader in meeting the unique requirements of its e-retailing and logistics customers. To illustrate this, Goodman has delivered more than 581,000 sqm of new warehouse space across nine facilities for Amazon in Europe alone, with a further 225,000 sqm currently being developed across two projects in Germany.

Goodman also recently announced the development of a new 42,410 sqm built-to-suit facility in Tianjin, China for Moonbasa, a major online retailer of ladies fashion and accessories.

"The continued rapid growth in e-retailing is a real game changer for our business. We have undertaken a number of developments for the e-retailing sector over the last two to three years which is reflected across our portfolio, making it one of our largest customer groups," Mr Goodman concluded.

However, in Nuance we have found a partner that provides a balance of accuracy and quality
of service for a highly competitive rate. And because it's fully automated, we have been
able to keep the cost as low as possible for our subscribers."

    John Pollard, vice president and general manager, voice-to-text services, Nuance
Mobile, said: "We're very excited that HulloMail is extending Scribe to the Android
market. People love having options when it comes to voicemail and with voicemail to text,
people can quickly read their messages and decide whether to ignore, call back or simply
respond with a text message."

subscribers for a monthly subscription of GBP1.49GBP, $1.99 in the USA and EUR1.59 in

World's First Mobile-Delivered Joint Recognition Training System Unveiled

LONDON, May 22, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    Summary

    A world-first multi-force Joint Recognition Training app for mobile devices was
unveiled today at ITEC by Caspian Learning. The app, unlike anything else currently
available, was unveiled by the technology company as part of their VBSWorlds training
showcase.

    Caspian Learning unveiled their world-first prototype Joint Recognition Training
application at ITEC today. The application is the first of its kind that will be available
to download onto mobile devices via both Google's Play Marketplace and Apple's App Store.

    The Joint Recognition Training prototype is a dynamic training application that is
unlike anything else available. Rather than using static photographic images of vehicles
to help trainees identify them, the new application uses high fidelity 3D models that
allow users to interact with vehicles within an immersive 3D environment.

    The ultimate learning objective of the application is to help trainees make snapshot
decisions about a vehicle's identity and possible intentions in tough conditions where
visibility is limited - on a handheld mobile device.

    In the full version of the application, trainees will be able to participate in two
distinct play modes.

   
    1) The first mode is a review mode or 'freestyle' mode that allows the user
      to select a vehicle and examine it in a 3D world and interact with it in a number of
      ways.
    2) The second mode is a training mode where users will be asked to take part in
      a time-restricted test that forces them to make snapshot decisions in tough
      conditions.

    In training mode, performance of the trainee is tracked for after-action reviews and
feedback.

    The app was designed as part of Caspian Learning's VBSWorlds ITEC showcase, where the
company are demonstrating a number of virtual training scenarios created with their 3D
authoring software, VBSWorlds.

    VBSWorlds is currently being used by NATO to create virtual training scenarios for
Maritime Interdiction Operations and is available to defence organisations around the
world on a licence basis.

    Lee Rushworth, a Caspian Learning spokesman, said "The Joint Recognition Training App
is an excellent example of how modern, mobile technology can be used to positively
influence training engagement and performance. We see this as a brand new application of
technology that has massive benefits for both organisations and their trainees over
traditional vehicle recognition methods."

    The Joint Recognition Training App concept will be on show at Caspian Learning's
exhibition stand at ITEC at booth F-110.

    For more information about the application, visit the Joint Recognition Training page

        and governance for IT
    --  Financial terms were not disclosed
Full Story:

At EMC World 2012, EMC(®) (NYSE: EMC) today announced that it has acquired privately held Syncplicity, Inc., a leader in cloud-based file management solutions. Based in Menlo Park, California, Syncplicity provides native cloud-based sync and share capabilities required by enterprise customers. Enterprise sync and share solutions are increasingly required by companies in response to the proliferation of mobile, social and cloud computing. Terms of the transaction were not released.

Unlike competitive offerings geared for consumers, Syncplicity solutions were built for the enterprise, enabling users to interact and share content on their device of choice with the security and governance IT requires. The company's solutions help organizations manage, sync, share and backup files across its extended enterprise, providing the tools they need to maximize productivity, protect their corporate data, and reduce infrastructure and support costs.

Integrating Syncplicity with the Information Intelligence Group portfolio provides a compelling opportunity for organizations, leveraging EMC's rich heritage in enterprise content management, information governance solutions and cloud storage, thousands of enterprise customers who rely on its technology to run their businesses and EMC's strong go-to-market channel. The addition of Syncplicity also extends EMC's strategy of enabling the 'New User' in the Post PC era, those who want to access, share, collaborate and participate in business processes on their preferred device.

Executive Quote:

Rick Devenuti, President, Information Intelligence Group, EMC

"It's our core belief that productivity and security are not mutually exclusive. In acquiring Syncplicity, we validate this concept by uniting enterprise 'sync and share' capabilities for the cloud with governance and rigor that is synonymous with Documentum(®). As cloud, social and mobile dominate the way work gets done, our customers require more than simple containers for managing and sharing content. With Syncplicity, we will deliver best-in-class solutions for true extended enterprise collaboration."

The Information Intelligence Group division of EMC is focused on four key strategic priorities for customer success - delighting the "New User" of the Post PC era with a compelling, fast and modern user experience across a variety of end-point devices; accelerating our customers' journey to the cloud; delivering pervasive governance to protect information wherever it exists, and helping our customers transform their business with high value solutions.

Pre-deployment Wi-Fi Network Planning with TamoGraph Site Survey 3.0

CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand, May 21, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    TamoSoft(R), a leading provider of network analysis software, announced today its
release of the next version of TamoGraph [http://www.tamos.com/products/wifi-site-survey
](R), a professional Windows 7/Vista/XP application for conducting 802.11 a/b/g/n site
surveys, analyzing vital Wi-Fi network characteristics, and modeling WLAN environments.

    TamoGraph's key features include simple and fast data collection, automatic access
point location, and comprehensive WLAN analysis with easy-to-understand visualizations of
signal level, interference, access point coverage areas, data rates, throughput, and
network issues. The application presents detailed information about every access point:
channel, maximum data rate, vendor, encryption type, etc. It fully supports 802.11n,
802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g networks. Detailed reports can be generated in both PDF and
HTML formats.

    In addition to the surveys based on actual on-site measurements, the newest TamoGraph
version 3.0 adds the ability to plan WLANs that have not yet been deployed. This type of
planning is called "predictive" or "virtual", because the Wi-Fi characteristics are
predicted for the virtual environment model created by the user in an easy-to-use visual
editor. The model uses built-in or custom-designed walls, floors, attenuation areas,
simulated access points, and a large selection of antenna patterns.

    By analyzing the model that matches the building's characteristics, TamoGraph helps
determine the number, placement, and configuration of access points-all of which makes it
much simpler for system integrators to deploy modern high-performance Wi-Fi networks and
provide great RF coverage. The software supports both outdoor and indoor single- and
multi-floor models.

    TamoGraph Site Survey is available through http://www.tamos.com, as well as
through a network of distributors and resellers. The license covers a year of free
upgrades and technical support. A 30-day trial version, user manual, technical
specifications, and data sheet are available for download from the TamoSoft website. The
localized user interface includes English, Chinese, German, Russian, and Spanish.

    About TamoSoft

    TamoSoft develops cutting-edge security and network monitoring software for wired and
wireless networks, including the renowned CommView product line. With a portfolio
including such companies as Motorola, Siemens, Ericsson, Nokia, Cisco, Unisys, UBS,

                       Mobile and Announces New Customer Offerings

    Collaborative Work Management provider Mindjet(R) has brought together its two Connect
products into a single service to allow users to collaborate together anytime, anywhere.
It has also announced new offerings that better reflect customer demands within their
business. The new Mindjet offerings will be generally available starting May 22nd.

    Connecting Vision and Action

    Up until now Mindjet provided two separate, cloud-based applications to help plan and
execute ideas and projects. Firstly, Mindjet's powerful and intuitive mapping methodology
for brainstorming, information capture and planning (Connect Action) and secondly, its
highly capable social task and work management technology (Connect Vision). The two have
now been brought together into one application, Mindjet Connect(R), giving customers
access to a platform anytime, anywhere - be it web, desktop or mobile - using a single
sign in.

    Available to both free users of Connect Basic and Mindjet's Connect Business users,

collaborating on projects and sharing information is more effective using a visual
platform - individuals use 20% less mental resources and are 17% more productive when
using visually displayed information compared to traditional office software[1].

    The three new offerings are:

    Mindjet for Enterprise:

   
    - Aimed at businesses looking to collaborate effectively and securely across
      larger teams, departments and external partners

      environment (Through Mindjet Connect SP).
    - Provides legendary desktop visualization, brainstorming and project planning
      through Mindjet MindManager(R)
    - Offers solution templates (for example for sales, Marketing, IT or HR)
    - Provides premium support and services with additional training, professional
      consulting

    Mindjet for Teams:

   
    - For customers who want the speed and flexibility of a SaaS offering -
      anytime, anywhere
    - It combines Mindjet Connect Business and MindManager(R), along with solution
      templates and guides to enable smart idea generation, work management and execution

    Mindjet for Individuals:

   
    - A product for individuals who need to create ideas, manage information and
      share that work with others
    - Users get the MindManager with its brainstorming and planning features with a
      link to Mindjet Connect Basic, the free version of the cloud-based collaboration
      product.

    Further information on the three new offerings will be available at Mindjet.com

local sales representative. Customers can continue to purchase Mindjet products
individually or in a combination to suit their organisation.

email; it helps us collaborate on everything. With Mindjet we plan and run whole projects.
We brainstorm on ideas, assign tasks, get alerts and track progress on who's doing what,
when it's supposed to be done and how far along it is."

    Gary Hielkema, President, Sensor Link: "With Mindjet Connect I get complete visibility
into plans and projects. I can see it, I know it and follow it. I don't have to ping
anyone anymore. I can visually see exactly where we are in our critical path, what needs
to be done first and what might what hold us up."

    Chris Harman, Regional Vice President for the United Kingdom and Ireland, Northern
Europe, Middle East and Africa: "We know our customers need to do more with fewer
resources - they simply want to work better together and get work done, wherever they are.
That's why we have developed an easy to use, intuitive service that supports effective
collaboration and allows teams and organisations to be more creative, strategic and
productive. And as the demands of our users evolve so has the way we deliver our products
to meet those needs."

PARIS, May 21, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    Eutelsat Communications (Euronext Paris: ETL) today announced the entry into service
of its new 'IP Easy' [http://www.eutelsat.com/news/media_library/brochures/IP-Easy.pdf ]
broadband platform built to extend high-speed Internet access to residential and home
office users as well as small and medium-sized enterprises across sub-Saharan Africa.

    Combining the strengths of Ku-band capacity on the recently-launched EUTELSAT 16A
[http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/EUTELSAT-16A.html ] satellite with Newtec
[http://www.newtec.eu ]'s successful Sat3Play(R) technology, IP Easy is available in a
service area stretching from the Gulf of Guinea to Madagascar. The service delivers
downlink speeds of up to 4Mbps and can be configured to support VOIP and satellite
reception of TV channels in triple play mode. The selection of Newtec's Sat3Play(R)
product which uses Point&Play self-installation also enables end users to autonomously
install the complete system with no specific qualification needed or expensive tooling.

    The hub for IP Easy is located at Eutelsat's teleport in Sardinia (Italy) which has
been developed in particular to provide broadband services for users in Africa thanks to
its location in the south of Europe. The teleport benefits from direct access to the
Internet backbone via key Points of Presence in Europe.

    For Jean-Francois Leprince-Ringuet, Commercial Director at Eutelsat: "With the launch
of IP Easy, we are leveraging the footprint of EUTELSAT 16A and the proven performance of
Newtec's technology to deliver heavy-user consumers, SoHos and SMEs in Africa a quality
broadband service that matches their needs in terms of performance and cost-efficiency. IP
Easy responds to pent-up demand for broadband from the many users beyond terrestrial
networks and adds a new layer of diversity to our portfolio of services for the African
continent."

Beware of paysafecard PINs Offered on the Internet

VIENNA and LONDON, May 21, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    The number of paysafecard PINs sold over the Internet - often below their actual value
- is currently increasing, even though the selling-on of PINs violates the T&Cs. The
majority of these PINs are linked to fraudulent activities. Also, many of these PINs have
been used or locked, therefore paysafecard users should only buy PINs from official sales
outlets. The paysafecard group points out that PINs shall only be used at authorised
online shops. paysafecard PINs cannot be used for payments to public or local authorities,
institutions, and courts at this point in time.

    Being able to pay securely on the Internet is becoming increasingly important.
paysafecard is a prepaid payment solution for the Internet which does not require personal
bank or credit card details. Payments are made by entering a unique 16-digit PIN that
comes with each paysafecard, making the transaction quick, easy and safe. paysafecard is
available at more than 350,000 sales outlets, in 29 countries around the world.

    paysafecard PINs sold over the Internet are often linked to fraud

    The number of paysafecard PINs sold over the Internet (e.g. on forums, marketplaces
etc.) - often below their actual value - is currently increasing, even though the
selling-on of PINs violates the T&Cs. The majority of these PINs are linked to fraudulent
activities. Buyers often experience an unpleasant surprise when trying to use the PINs for
online purchases, as the PINs have already been locked and can no longer be used.

    paysafecard is a prepaid payment method for the Internet which is accepted at more
than 3,500 online shops (e.g. online gaming, internet telephony, and social gaming etc.).
However, there are currently viruses on the Internet which lock infected computers. The
computers then display a pop-up window demanding a ransom or an alleged fine to be paid
with - amongst other means of payment - paysafecard PINs. These are attempts at fraud.

    The paysafecard group distances itself from these attempts and points out that public
authorities, institutions, law firms, and courts do not accept paysafecard as a means of
payment. paysafecard should only be used for payments at authorised online shops of
official partners. Instructions to pay a fee or a fine by using a paysafecard should never
be followed. Those affected should contact the police.

    The paysafecard group works in close cooperation with the Federal Criminal Police
Office (.BK) in Austria, and supports the police with their investigations, in order to
stop these attempts at fraud.

    paysafecard - "Cash for the Internet"

    Payments with paysafecard are similar to payments in cash. Customers purchase a
paysafecard in the desired denomination from a sales outlet. In order to pay at an online
shop, customers simply enter the unique 16-digit PIN that comes with each voucher. Bank
account or credit card details are not required. paysafecard PINs should be treated like
banknotes. The PINs are not transferable. Users who disclose a paysafecard PIN to others
give third parties access to the remaining credit on the voucher.

    Security tips from paysafecard can be found on http://www.paysafecard.com
("Security").

    About paysafecard group: The paysafecard group, founded in 2000 in Austria and
Germany, operates in 29 countries worldwide with offices in Vienna, London, Lucerne,
Buenos Aires, Mexico City and New York. With its successful online prepaid vouchers, the
paysafecard group has established itself as Europe's leading provider of prepaid payment
solutions. In 2009 the group won awards for being the 'Leading Prepaid Organization' and
the 'Best Prepaid Company outside USA'. For more information, please visit

Eutelsat at Satcom Africa: new Resources and Services to Boost Broadcast and data Markets Across Africa

JOHANNESBURG, May 21, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    ?21-24 May 2012, Sandton Convention Centre, Johannesburg, South Africa, Stand 26

   
    - Closing the infrastructure gap in Africa: innovative satellite solutions
      for affordable broadband access
         - Launch of IP Easy service from Gulf of Guinea to Madagascar
    - Eutelsat video positions: a preferred choice for broadcasters reaching
      viewers across Africa and Indian Ocean Islands
         - More than 50% of satellite channels in these regions already broadcasting
         via Eutelsat
         - Broadcasting resources to support progressive digital switchover
    - Connecting Africa to the world
         - Two new Eutelsat satellites to enhance connectivity between Africa,
         Europe, Middle East, Asia

    With ICT development high on the agenda of all African countries, the annual Satcom
Africa conference in Johannesburg is showcasing the long-term role played by satellite
technologies in delivering affordable and ubiquitous access to digital services. Eutelsat
Communications (Euronext Paris: ETL), one of the world's leading satellite operators, is
at this key industry event to demonstrate new resources and solutions optimised to support
markets for digital broadcasting, GSM backhauling, IP trunking, VSAT networks and
broadband access.

    Closing the infrastructure gap in Africa: IP Easy affordable IP access launches on
EUTELSAT 16A

    In the broadband market, Eutelsat is taking the opportunity of SatCom Africa to unveil
a new platform called IP Easy, a new platform to extend high-speed Internet access to
residential and home office users as well as small and medium-sized enterprises across
sub-Saharan Africa.

    Combining the strengths of Ku-band capacity on the recently-launched EUTELSAT 16A
satellite with Newtec's successful Sat3Play(R) technology, IP Easy is available in a
service area stretching from the Gulf of Guinea to Madagascar. The service delivers
downlink speeds of up to 4Mbps and can support VOIP and reception of TV channels, in
triple play mode. The selection of Newtec's Sat3Play(R) product which uses Point&Play
self-installation also enables end users to autonomously install the complete system with
no specific qualification needed or expensive tooling.

    Broadcast satellites: the star performers for multi-channel reception in Africa

    As the main platform for multi-channel reception, satellite is the star performer for
broadcast services in Africa. Broadcast satellites deliver reach for nationwide and
regional coverage and bandwidth for pay-TV platforms aggregating a diverse range of
content including High-Definition television. According to Datixis, the number of
satellite homes in Africa will experience a solid year-to-year growth in the coming years,
up from 4.5 million in 2010 to 8.7 million in 2015 (+ 13% CAGR).

    Channel growth in Africa and Indian Ocean outstrips all markets

    Over 50% of the 1,250 satellite TV channels currently broadcasting in Africa and
Indian Ocean islands use one of Eutelsat's market-leading video neighbourhoods. This means
that 15% of the more than 4,000 TV channels broadcasting via Eutelsat are addressing these
fast-developing markets.

    Two key Eutelsat video neighbourhoods are driving growth:

   
    - The 36degree(s) East neighbourhood occupied by EUTELSAT 36A and 36B is one
      of the two top positions for satellite TV across Africa. The DStv platform owned by
      MultiChoice and ZAP owned by ZON, the Portuguese operator, have both benefited from
      Eutelsat's continued investment in capacity at 36degree(s) East. New resources have
      facilitated the arrival of over 170 channels in two years, taking the count at
      36degree(s) East to 300 channels.
    - The 16degree(s) East neighbourhood, already selected by Canal+ Overseas,
      Orange, Parabole Reunion and France Televisions, is the broadcasting point of
      reference in Indian Ocean islands. Channels broadcasting from this neighbourhood
      increased by 40% to almost 150 in the 24 months to end 2011. The launch of the
      EUTELSAT 16A satellite in October 2011 was a new landmark for 16degree(s) East
      increasing capacity and extending reach to open new broadcast opportunities in Western
      and Central Africa.

    In addition to long-term favourable trends in pay-TV, the roll-out of Digital
Terrestrial Television (DTT) across Africa is expanding opportunities for satellite
services. As African nations progressively move towards analogue switch-off, satellites
are being called on for cost-effective delivery of digital multiplexes to terrestrial
towers and for direct reception. Pioneering clients using Eutelsat for DVB-T broadcast
delivery include the StarTimes platform that uses two Eutelsat satellites to transmit to
terrestrial retransmitters in 10 African countries and recently announced sales of over
one million set-top-boxes.

    New satellites to launch for Africa to enhance connectivity between Middle East,
Europe, Asia, Africa

    Two new innovative and highly flexible satellite programmes will be showcased at
SatCom Africa: EUTELSAT 70B, due for launch end 2012, and EUTELSAT 3B, to be launched in
early 2014.

    These satellites are designed to provide ISPs, telecom and mobile phone operators,
video companies and government service providers with regional coverage and connectivity
between Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and as far as Australia.

   
    - Unique of its kind, EUTELSAT 70B is designed to optimise resources from a
      single orbital slot at the crossroads between Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. With
      high frequency reuse, four powerful regional beams connected to 48 Ku-band
      transponders will be located on a single platform. EUTELSAT 70B will more than double
      current capacity at 70.5degree(s) East for data and government services, broadband
      access, GSM backhauling and professional video exchanges.
    - EUTELSAT 3B is a tri-band satellite (C, Ku, Ka) designed to increase and
      diversify resources for markets in Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia and South
      America. Users will select the most relevant frequency band for different types of
      service. Ku and C-band capacity will further consolidate response to broadcast and
      data markets. High throughput beams in the Ka-band, that will be individually
      steerable to regional and national markets and operated with scalable allocation of
      power and spectrum, will support innovative applications in bandwidth-demanding
      markets.

The lab will identify technological needs of the educational system and will pilot the
technological products developed in the Incubator.

    Gila Ben-Har, the CEO of CET, commented, "While Israel has acquired a reputation as a
global high tech superpower, it is necessary to invest in education to close the gap
between our technological capabilities and their implementation in the education. The
establishment of the first technological-educational incubator in Israel seeks to create
an optimal affinity between creative and entrepreneurial startups and the educational
system so as to position Israel in the forefront of innovative technological education.
The choice of Yeruham to host the Incubator came natural for us as we seek to encourage
start-up companies and entrepreneurs to work in the Negev as well as become engaged in the
community activity in the area and in the educational institutes of Yeruham and its
vicinity."

    Over the next five years, CET will mobilize $10 million in the project. Start-up
companies that join the incubator will enjoy financial support and will be able to use the
Lab's schools as an experimental field, and the team of the Aquarium for research and
business and pedagogical consulting.

    In choosing Yeruham as the venue for the incubator, CET hopes to encourage and spur
settlement in the Negev, creation of new jobs and interaction between the Incubator and
the community.

    The mayor of Yeruham, Michael Biton, said, "The opening of CET incubator in Yeruham is
wonderful news for the city and a major advance for the citizens. The opening relies on
Yeruham's having the human capital necessary to run the Center and the conviction to start
Zionist momentum in the Negev. The high tech industry has shown it is capable of
overcoming borders and physical distance. I am confident that CET's decision is the first
bird of spring and that more organization will follow suit with initiatives which will
create more jobs and more high tech ventures in the region."

    Avi Warshavsky, Head of Humanities and Social studies at CET, said, "CET has
identified the need of establishing an independent body devoted to research,
entrepreneurship, innovation and experiments in education. We urge local developers and
entrepreneurs join us and partner in making a real difference in the future of Israel's
educational system."

    Organizations interested in joining CET Technological Incubator in Yeruham are invited
to write to Hamama@cet.ac.il
