4G LTE From AT&T Available in St. Louis

Customers to benefit from ultra-fast mobile Internet on the latest LTE devices

ST. LOUIS, April 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* has turned on its 4G LTE network in St. Louis, bringing customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. AT&T 4G LTE provides several benefits, including:

    --  Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet
        speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download,
        upload and game faster than ever before.
    --  Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including
        new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets, such as the first LTE Windows
        Phone Nokia Lumia 900, Samsung Galaxy Note(TM), and Pantech Element(TM)
        tablet.
    --  Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the
        processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how
        long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you've sent
        the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming,
        two-way video calling and telemedicine.
    --  More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource,
        and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating
        more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better
        network experience.
"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in St. Louis responds to what customers want from their mobile experience -- more, faster, on the best devices," said Nancy Garvey, AT&T's vice president/general manager for the Greater Midwest Region.

devices. Over the years, SOTI has won numerous awards for its Remote Control and Mobile
Device Management technology. Recent awards include winning the Microsoft Worldwide
Partner Award in the Mobile Solutions category, Microsoft Impact Award, Mobile Village
SuperStar Award and Intermec Partner of the Year Award.

    A key benefit of BlitFire 10X is that it makes remote control feasible on high
resolution tablet devices with hi-color screens, such as Samsung 10.1 tablets and the iPad
3, even over slower networks. Customers can now be supported in areas where the networks
are not very advanced such as in remote areas or in third world countries. "By being able
to Remote Control into these device while they are in the field, help desks can not only
trouble shoot and repair problems on the go, but they can also provide remote training.
Being able to remotely see the screen of the device means that they can show users how to
use the device, and detect incorrect usage of the device. These features don't just
enhance the end-user experience, but also widen the breadth of applications for which
these devices can be used," said Carl Rodrigues.

Advanced College Offers a Degree From a U.S. College to Students Anywhere on Earth

The programs available at Advanced College in South Gate are at your fingertips even if you're not in the United States

LOS ANGELES, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Distance learning, aka "correspondence courses," have been around for a couple of hundred years. You could learn to garden or sew by taking a course by mail, or study a foreign language. Today, most college educations provide some degree of online study, even when the student attends a brick-and-mortar institution full time. What makes Advanced College in South Gate, CA truly cutting edge is that an Associate's degree is available to you all-online and fully transferable to an accredited University where you can get a Bachelor's. But for this online course you never even have to set foot in the United States to earn your degree from a career college in Los Angeles.

The Associate's programs available at Advanced College are in highly lucrative and life-enriching fields. Take online courses and get a degree in accounting, health management, business administration, or medical assistance. These programs can be taken from out of state, or, indeed, a foreign country. Traveling as a student can be quite costly, and taking these courses online can mean massive savings.

Students of vocational schools in Los Angeleswho are in need of financial aid must be located in the U.S., but at Advanced College, the tuition is already quite low. Financial aid, for those who qualify, is often less of a concern for Advanced College students, who have reported saving over $10,000 on tuition alone. Additionally, Kaplan University, an accredited institution offering numerous Bachelor's degree programs, fully accepts credits from students who transfer from Advanced College. What's more, Kaplan offers 10% off your tuition for transferring from Advanced College. This means a choice to study at Advanced College is a choice for a more financially secure future.

If your plans for an education involve immersion in American culture, and you would prefer to travel for your degree, Kaplan's I20 visa assistance means you'll avoid many of the challenges students face when they study abroad. Advanced College is fully certified by the Department of Homeland Security to perform this service, which places them among a select few trade schools in Los Angeles that can offer help with student visas. And if your plans change, and you want to move to the U.S. after you've already started with an online program, Advanced College will still perform this I20 service up till your last semester as a student. This is great news if you decide you want to transfer to Kaplan University.

For information about Advanced College's certificate and Associate's degree programs, go to http://www.advancedcollege.edu or call (562)-408-6969.

LeCroy Introduces Lowest Cost USB 3.0 Analyzer at $2995

New Advisor(TM) T3 Basic model enables next wave of SuperSpeed development as industry moves to support the Intel® 7 Series Chipset

BEIJING, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Intel Developer Forum -- LeCroy Corporation, the worldwide leader in USB test solutions, today introduced a new USB 3.0 protocol analyzer designed to significantly lower the cost of developing and testing new SuperSpeed USB devices.  Based on LeCroy's Advisor T3 Standard Edition (currently the top selling USB 3.0 protocol analyzer), the new Basic model at $2995 provides the same lossless data capture with full support for USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 analysis.  Now that Intel is shipping USB 3.0 in their 7 Series Chipset, the Advisor T3 Basic is well suited to meet the feature and budget requirements of the cost-conscience mainstream market as companies seek to develop new USB 3.0 products and add USB 3.0 performance to their existing products.

The addition of USB 3.0 within the Intel platform makes USB 3.0 a likely "de facto" standard, and provides peripheral device manufacturers a compelling incentive to develop SuperSpeed USB products.  Capitalizing on this expanding market for USB 3.0 means additional interoperability and backward compatibility testing with existing USB devices.  As LeCroy's value-priced analyzer solution, the Advisor T3 Basic will be an important enabler for developers interested in accelerating their SuperSpeed USB product introductions.

The Advisor Basic model has the full benefit of the intuitive CATC Trace(TM) view with its ease of use and understanding for USB protocol. The de facto standard for USB debug, this unique hierarchical display provides easy visibility and comprehensive decoding from the packet level up through the High Level Device Classes.  Notably, the Advisor Basic analyzer features hardware-based event triggering that has proven to be an essential capability for validating SuperSpeed interoperability at the USB 3.0 data rates of up to 5 Gb/s.

The Advisor Basic model offers best-in-class probing technology with true capture of SuperSpeed 10-bit symbols.  "While some competitive USB 3.0 analyzers rely on commercially-available PIPE-PHY silicon for their probe design, the Advisor series features a general-purpose deserializer probe with lossless recording of every bit sent between host and device," said Michael Romm, vice-president of product development at LeCroy's Protocol Solutions Group.  "The main limitation with using the PIPE interface for a USB 3.0 analyzer is that the native 10-bit symbols on the bus are not preserved and instead the data stream is reduced to 8-bit patterns before being captured by the analyzer.  In the process, the original 10-bit patterns are lost, including information on 10-bit structures such as running disparity.  Without the running disparity information, it becomes impossible to accurately recreate the 10-bit symbol, especially important when invalid 10-bit symbols are received."

Released in 2010, the Advisor T3 Standard Edition quickly became the industry's top selling USB 3.0 analyzer.   The Standard Edition continues to be available at the new list price of $3995 and now includes the ability to capture both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 links concurrently.  This is important for developers tasked with testing host behaviors including hub configurations and proper SuperSpeed to high-speed fall-back operation.

P3 Designs, LLC Launches - The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) Beta

The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) is a revolutionary patent pending golf course search tool that actually "fits" golfers to golf courses.

SOUTHERN PINES, N.C., April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- For years golfers have been able to search for golf courses on the Internet by parameters such as rates, location, architect or rankings. All of these parameters are useful for a golf course search. However, searching for a golf course by these parameters alone leaves a massive void in valuable information about the golf course's design and layout...the very things that impact the actual "playability" of the golf course. The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) was designed to fill this void by placing this valuable "playability" information at the heart of the search criteria. When using the Golf Course Fitting System(TM) a golfer can quickly find golf courses that not only "fit" their budget but "fit" their playing preferences as well.

The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) has a unique algorithm that takes into account every golf course's physical design characteristics (hole by hole) and converts this "playability" data into a standardized personality score called a Tee-To-Green Personality(TM). The Golf Course Fitting System's(TM) user interface allows a golfer to design a golf course Tee-To-Green Personality(TM) that they would like to experience and then search for golf courses that "fit" the design that they have created. This unique user experience is what lead P3 Designs, LLC to the slogan for their new application..."You design it. We find it(TM)." Golfers can interact with The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) Beta at http://golfcoursefitting.com/.

"After nearly two years of research, design, construction and data entry, we are extremely excited to launch our Beta version of The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) for the golf world to experience. We are now turning our attention toward establishing strategic business relationships through affiliate programs, licensing and joint ventures. Ultimately we want The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) to be part of a comprehensive golf website where golfers can book tee times, book golf travel, create player & group profiles and connect with PGA Professionals and other golfers. With the right platform and support The Golf Course Fitting System(TM) will revolutionize the way golfers search for golf courses on the Internet," said Chad Derusseau, Founder of P3 Designs, LLC.

drinklobby, New Social Drinking App, Invites iPhone Users to Chill Out in Their Virtual Lounge

New social drinking app allows people to imbibe with friends from across the continents

DENVER, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Gain exposure to a world of new beverages with drinklobby, the most comprehensive new social drinking app for the iPhone. drinklobby is a unique social enjoyment tool, unlocking for iPhone users a whole-new exploration of the world of beverages. The social drinking app is a drinks recommendation engine, a database for keeping track of what people drink, a wish list, and expert and user reviews of all manner of drinks. This makes drinklobby completely different from all other social drinking apps. It could not be easier to use -- simply create a drink by clicking the "Drink!" button. Other users can see and post comments via the Live Drink Feed, which opens a whole host of features.

"Drinking is an inherently social activity, and the world is more connected today than ever before. I created drinklobby because I want people to continue to interact and have fun by sharing drinks through social media," said Cesar Guinovart, one of the creators of the social drinking app. "It appeals to everyone from lovers of White Zinfandel to connoisseurs of fine Bordeaux; basic beer drinkers and lovers of local micro brews, sippers of fine whiskies and aged Single Malts and consumers of Cosmos and intricate mixed cocktails."

drinklobby was created by veteran software mastermind, Cesar Guinovart, and his wife Natalie, a wine writer, Certified Sommelier and Certified Wine Educator who holds the London-based Wine and Spirit Education Trust Diploma. Together, they combined their passion for great wine, brews and spirits, technology, and the social aspect of sharing drinks with friends. drinklobby is Cesar's first foray into mobile application and his relentless drive for quality and meticulous development skills have turned drinklobby into a remarkably polished, user-friendly and endlessly fun social drinking app for the iPhone.

Currently the social drinking app is geared towards alcoholic beverages, such as wine, beer, spirits, and mixed drinks. Future plans include integrating nonalcoholic beverages, Foursquare integration, specials and discounts on the beverages users are enjoying, and social drinking apps for LIKE and Android in future releases.

It couldn't be easier to register drinklobby and start sharing drinks with friends. Furthermore, it is entirely up to the user how deeply they wish to engage the various features drinklobby offers, from keeping track of drinks, ratings, suggestions, wish lists, comments, and location based services to product information. Best of all, it's currently free to download.

Social drinking app features

Drinking Buddies - Find friends and start saying "Cheers!"

Drinks Feed -"Check-In" to the social drinking app with a drink, upload a photo, and let others know where you're enjoying that tasty beverage! This cool feature that shows a live feed of what's being enjoyed right now, and allows users to "Cheers", "Comment" or "Add to Wish List."

User Profile - Ever have trouble remembering that wine from that great restaurant? A user's profile stores all of the beverages they've consumed in the past (which might, of course, be a little scary!). Users can also upload a photo of the label, a rating and review, making it easy to find that wine again.

Wish List - Click on others' drinks or enter a new beverage and save it to a Wish List

Ratings - Rate and review drinks! Make those reviews public and share with other drinklobby users

Win Trophies - Be a BrewMaster, or a Cork Dork! drinklobby rewards points and trophies for posting both drinks and comments and keeps a point-based leader board between Drinking Buddies.

Facebook & Twitter Integration - Share experiences with potentially millions of other social drinkers beyond the social drinking app!

Discounts on Beverages - Using location-based services, see where your friends are enjoying drinks! Upcoming features will offer personalized discounts to suit tastes and through Foursquare integration, location.

TWLV & Team Saatchi Now Present a New "Game of Chance" for the First Time Since Camelot - With a Twist

LONDON, April 10, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    TWLV (pronounced 'twelve') is a new type of social network game in which the player
buys tickets to win money. While being drawn like a bingo game, TWLV offers more, because
it's social and the more the player's friends are involved, the greater their chance of
winning. TWLV's fascinating mix of hard, scientific returns blended with that wonderfully
unknown quantity of social guile and persuasion make it a unique and intriguing
proposition.

    Serially successful Dutch entrepreneur, Ab Olde-Scheper, has appointed Team Saatchi,
London as TWLV's marketing partner to help launch this fantastic new online game.

    TWLV's unique setup of having social networks at its core will attract a wide variety
of players. On one side, enthusiast poker players or city traders will "do the math" and
be enticed to invest big - with the anticipation of winning even greater returns. Yet
others, like bingo-loving housewives or social network addicts will be tempted by the
unshakable self-confidence in their own social prowess (and ability to activate an army of
friends) as a surefire reason to play - and win.

    It starts when a player buys one GBP12 ticket, which enters them into 12 monthly draws
- multiplying out to a full house of 12 friends. Players can employ different strategies
and play into different prize funds (from local pots to bigger global pots). How they play
that world of possibilities is entirely up to them.

    Ab Olde-Scheper, Founder of TWLV, said: "An online cash game like TWLV, combining
strategic gameplay, social experience, a high level of engagement and the ability to play
with friends and win with friends is unique to the industry. We are striving to meet the
best returns and highest level of transparency of any game of chance offered online
adopting the highest standards towards responsible gaming and player protection."

    Peter Lovatt, Chairman of Team Saatchi, said: "We believe this game has the potential
to rapidly become a real phenomenon. Whilst constantly improving game play and user
experience taking into account players feedback and demands, TWLV is promoting involvement
by special offers for early adopters. So my advice is to get in early!"

    Notes: TWLV tickets can be bought online in various currencies and the game will soon
be available in all major languages and on multiple social networks targeting a global
network of players.

    Ab Olde-Scheper

    After a short career in international trade and recycling of non-ferrous metals, Ab
Olde-Scheper started pioneering in the European bottled water and water cooler industry in
1996. With the start-up of Dolphin Fresh Water Company he built a water bottling and
distribution company in the Netherlands, Germany, Spain and Slovakia, that was sold to
Danone Springs of Eden in 2007. Driven by his entrepreneurial ambitions he then switched
to e-gaming, developing online bingo & lottery software together with his new technical
partner, Dutchman Guus Janssen. The idea for TWLV, an i-network game of chance, developed
into a business plan resulting in the company starting up mid 2011. The tier 1, white
listed, online gambling license was obtained in December 2011 and TWLV officially launched
its website on the 12th of January 2012.

RFS to Unveil Major New Technology and Design Innovations for the Broadcast Market at the 2012 NAB Show

LAS VEGAS, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- At the 2012 NAB Show to be held April 16-19 in Las Vegas, Radio Frequency Systems (RFS), the global wireless and broadcast infrastructure specialist, will showcase revolutionary new software that enables complete filter tuning with no manual intervention and panel array antennas that cut wind load in half. These RFS innovations reflect the company's commitment to delivering superior technologies that are closely tied to customer needs.

"The customer is always at the center of our innovations," says Jay Martin, President, RFS Broadcast Systems. "From the design and development stages, through our rigorous testing phases and manufacturing processes, we focus on increasing performance and flexibility, decreasing costs and simplifying operations for our customers. This year, we are very excited to introduce our Broadcast Computer Aided Tuning software at the NAB Show. This software is truly unique in the industry and people will have to see it in action at the show to believe that it is now possible to fully tune a filter using software."

Filter tuning made easy
With RFS' tuning software, even a novice can fully tune a complex filter. Today's tuning software simplifies tuning to a point. However, finishing the tuning process requires a tuning expert, product disassembly and up to a day in time. The tuning software allows anyone who can operate a computer and a Network Analyzer to tune RFS PeakPower+(TM) filters through to completion within half an hour. The dramatic reduction in tuning time helps transmitter vendors quickly and easily respond to changing requirements. Sophisticated algorithms and the software's ability to learn enable the extreme simplification. To demonstrate the power of the tuning software, RFS is inviting NAB Show visitors to drop by booth C2007 and tune a PeakPower+ filter themselves.

Innovative filter technology has long been an RFS strength. RFS' CW-series directional filters include Emmy® Award-winning, patented technology that enables high-power adjacent channel combining. The technology has saved the television industry millions of dollars by allowing concurrent operation of digital and analog systems without deploying new antennas and towers. RFS' PeakPower+ filters -- featured at the 2012 NAB Show with the tuning software -- support power ratings from 50 Watts to 10kW and are tunable across the UHF band and for 6, 7 or 8 MHz channels.

Lower wind load, more flexibility
At the 2012 NAB Show, RFS will also feature the new "R-variants" of its PCP, PHP and PVP broadband panel array antennas. These antennas feature an innovative cylindrical radome that cuts wind load in half compared to other designs. A smaller antenna cross-section is key to the savings.

The antennas' compact design and low wind load reduces structural requirements for towers. Robust construction means they are hurricane and cyclone rated and can withstand ice and snow build-up. Support for all bands gives broadcasters the flexibility to use the panels as a building block in any antenna configuration and to change applications.

    --  PCP broadband panels support digital TV (DTV), mobile TV, analog TV and
        Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) applications. These antennas
        support horizontal, vertical, circular and elliptical polarization and
        frequency ranges from 500 MHz to 700 MHz.
    --  PVP broadband panels are fully engineered for DTV. They support vertical
        polarization and frequency ranges from 470 MHz to 860 MHz.
    --  PHP broadband panels are fully engineered for DTV. They support
        horizontal polarization and frequency ranges from 470 MHz to 860 MHz.
Talk to our experts
RFS specialists on hand at the 2012 NAB Show will include Jay Martin (President, Broadcast Systems), Nick Wymant (CTO, Broadcast Systems), Mick Bennett (Global Product Manager, Broadcast Systems) and Ernest Fardin (Senior BCAT Software Designer).

To try your hand at using the tuning software to tune a PeakPower+ filter, see our latest innovations in radome design and learn more about our technologies and innovations for the broadcast market, come and talk to our experts at the RFS booth (Las Vegas Convention Center, Central Hall, booth C2007).

Deadbolt, an Encryption Solution for E-mail and Messaging Security, is Available for Macintosh and Windows

Rune Information Security Corporation e-mail and data encryption software guarantees your private data stays private

SINGAPORE, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Singapore-based Rune Information Security Corporation Pte. Ltd. is pleased to announce the availability of its Deadbolt encryption solution designed to make data theft through e-mail and messaging intercept a thing of the past for both Mac and Windows users.

Simply put, Rune has designed Deadbolt implementing both standards based OpenPGP and optional, one-time pad for e-mail, messaging, and data. The 'pad' alludes to the unbreakable and random Vernam cipher or one-time pad invented in 1917. The Vernam cipher is unbreakable because it produces completely random cipher-text that secures data so that even the most powerful super computers can't break the encryption when it is used properly. During World War II, spies used a paper 'pad' that had the randomly generated text to encode and decode their messages. The only way to break the code and read the message was to actually be in possession of the pad. With Deadbolt, this proven form of data security guarantees that your recipient who has the 'pad/key' is the only one who can unlock and read your e-mail and attachments.

E-mail is especially vulnerable because it is the communications choice for business and individuals, and therefore targeted by governments, corporations and private investigators.  With the release of many commercial off-the-shelf intercept tools, eavesdropping that was once only available to attackers with significant means, like governments is now within the reach of anyone with a bit of tech savvy and will.

Deadbolt keeps organizational and personal e-mail, messages, and files private through standards based OpenPGP and AES and when data security is paramount the Vernam cipher configuration is also available.  Rune's development team coupled a FIPS 140-2 approved software library (NSS) with one-time pad enabling exceptionally strong encryption and compliance with industry standards and regulations.

"Deadbolt is designed to easily protect information against all who want to steal or watch your data," says Lance Gaines, President-CTO of Rune Information Security Corporation. "We can't stop them from getting access to your system but we do stop them from being able to read sensitive data and information at rest or in motion. If running in the Vernam or one-time pad configuration Deadbolt removes  information from the continual 'crypto arms race' of ever increasing key lengths; whatever you secure today will be just as secure 1000 years from now."

When in Vernam configuration the Vema Cipher technology platform guarantees that as your data traverses from your computer through the World Wide Web, through various servers, phone companies, cable and satellite systems, no governments or hackers can intercept and decipher your private messages. Your secrets, both commercial and personal, stay secret.  Deadbolt is truly portable and simply attaches to your Mac or PC and secures any type of data with only three clicks or less.  It even secures Facebook, Skype, Gmail and LinkedIn messages.  You select it, Deadbolt secures it.

"Rune created a data security product that is uniquely easy to use, and when used correctly, with the appropriate policies, unbreakable," Gaines continues. "Numerous articles, like 'The Surveillance Catalog' appearing in publications like the Wall Street Journal highlight that intercept and hacking tools are now easily and readily available to the masses. Further, daily articles like the 'Long-Term Nortel Breach' highlights that a data centric approach needs to be taken to information security.  Whether you're an enterprise executive, a banker trying to maintain financial security, a high-net-worth individual, working with sensitive corporate or personal data, Deadbolt will make sure your secrets stay secret. Deadbolt is not crypto for the masses, instead it is crypto for those that need to protect sensitive information and secrets."

Deadbolt is "data centric" and protects information as it moves across network and geographic boundaries and in the 'cloud'. Once encrypted, your information is just as safe on your laptop as it is running through international telecommunications and data networks, and it is designed to be deployed in small to medium size user groups, across any type of SME, or large corporation.

Deadbolt is available through select software resellers. For a list of retailers, please email sales@rune.sg.  Please visit http://www.rune.com.sg to learn more about Deadbolt and Rune's information security solutions.

About Rune

Singapore-based Rune Information Security Corporation Pte. Ltd. creates solutions that maintain e-mail and Internet privacy in a world of electronic eavesdropping and corporate espionage. Rune delivers 'toolkits' that security professionals and individuals can integrate into information systems and PCs that guarantee that e-mail, proprietary documents and other data remain private. By using standards based encryption as well as unbreakable Vernam encryption 'one-time pad', Rune has created easy-to-use, easy-to-manage software that creates a standards based and compliance driven, unbeatable security wall that will ensure proprietary private and corporate data remains readable only to those who have the key.

Rune was founded by a group of like-minded security software professionals who believe in empowering and maintaining privacy through tried and tested technology and methods.

The new DataMine solution is 100% hosted with all data loading and other setup requirements handled by Kontagent, enabling big data exploration unavailable in any other SaaS analytics solution. Both the cloud deployment and the end-to-end solution are milestones in the use of Hive, dramatically reducing the costs of data mining by eliminating the need to build or license proprietary software, buy the servers, load the data, and maintain the database.   

"Our core product is an online dashboard that answers hundreds of common questions about user behavior in social games and mobile apps, but we wanted to empower data analysts to dive deeper by creating ad hoc queries. The challenge is that the kSuite platform captures as many as 50 billion events for our customers each month. We needed to provide a more flexible big data exploration solution for analysts and business intelligence professionals to dive into the raw data," said Jeff Tseng, Kontagent Co-Founder and CEO. "Hive gave us the means to address that challenge, and we took it to the next level with an affordable out-of-the-box cloud strategy." 

With a basic knowledge of SQL, business intelligence professionals at social/mobile app development businesses can use the company's new Hive-based tool to gain in-depth insights into how users interact with their apps. Questions might range from "What last three actions did users take before they uninstalled the app or failed to return?" to "What last five behaviors did users exhibit before purchasing virtual goods?"

The answers - unavailable without data mining - can be used to fine-tune application design, identify high-value cohorts, shape marketing plans and guide other decisions to generate maximum value from each app.

FRANSAT, SAMSUNG and NEOTION Break new Ground for Satellite TV Reception in France

Satellite reception of free DTT channels now available with no external tuner

PARIS, April 10, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    FRANSAT, SAMSUNG and NEOTION today unveiled the new face of satellite reception of
free DTT (Digital Terrestrial Television) channels in France. The three companies have
combined their skills to integrate a satellite receiver and a DTT module for FRANSAT into
Samsung televisions in its 2012 range (ES series). The pack comprises a decryption module
produced by Neotion and an access card for subscription-free reception of FRANSAT, the
French satellite TV platform owned by Eutelsat.

    This new product takes reception of FRANSAT to new levels of simplicity. Viewers no
longer need an external set-top-box or a second remote control. They simply need to slot
the FRANSAT access card into the module and then insert the module into the Common
Interface (CI) of the TV set which is already pre-equipped with a satellite tuner.

    The system uses the CI Plus specification which is designed to support the
authentication and encryption mechanisms that provide a secure channel between the
Conditional Access Module (CAM) and Samsung's integrated digital TV (IDTV). The module
developed by Neotion uses Viaccess conditional access and complies with the high
technical, functionality and security parameters set by FRANSAT.

    This integrated solution is compatible in the first phase with Samsung's ES series of
IDTVs (5700/6300/65X0/6710/7000/8000)[1]. Using the HbbTV standard, these LED displays
also enable access to interactive services that will progressively be rolled out on the
FRANSAT platform. FRANSAT modules will be commercialised in France at the recommended
retail price of 129EUR. Sales will start in the Boulanger chain of stores and via the
Andom, Pulsat, Competence and DEFI networks of antenna specialists, prior to being
progressively extended to other retail outlets.

Blowing Her Horn to Break Down Bias and Bullying

New CD Live Out Loud to Release on April 20th GLSEN Day of Silence

NORTHFIELD, N.J., April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Susan Goodman is on a mission: to eradicate bullying by helping students identify bias and empowering them to speak out against it.  As a saxophonist-singer-songwriter, she's got a unique way of doing this:  through a mix of urban, Afro-pop, and jazz flavored original songs, like those you'll hear on her new CD Live Out Loud.  It's laced with her soulful sax solos, and lyrics that shine a light on the spectrum of bias -- from xenophobia to homophobia.

Susan (also known as Sooz) has been presenting STAND UP! SPEAK OUT!, a K-8 anti-bullying assembly program, for over a decade, based on songs she wrote while completing her studies in a Holocaust-Genocide Education program. Bullying is about power, but Sooz believes it's also about bias.  Songs on Live out Loud are "breaking down bias and bullying" for music-savvy middle, high school, and college students: helping them to recognize and question bias, while cultivating the courage and compassion to speak out against it.

Bullying is a personal issue for Susan.  She experienced it as a child, as did her two sons: one for being a "nerd," the other for being gay. The increasingly lethal effects of bullying planted the seeds for Live Out Loud. Tyler Clementi's death moved Susan to begin the project with songs on anti-gay bias and cyber bullying. She set an April 20(th) release date to support The National Day of Silence, a student-led day of action to call attention to continued anti-LGBTQ bullying.

Sooz' songwriting will get you to turn up the music and tune in to the message. The Afro-beat opener Bein' Brave distinguishes snitchin' from speaking out:  crucial, she says, because bullies are far outnumbered by bystanders.  Think Before You Speak defines school as a "bias-free zone" where students have a "right to safety and civility." Perhaps most bold is the jazzy R&B Ally: "Prejudice is prejudice / xenophobe, homophobe, or member of the Klan / Ignorance breeds hate and fear / Straight boy, straight girl, say you'll be an Ally!"  STAND UP! SPEAK OUT! and Live Out Loud are bound to turn bystanders into Allies.
