                    product longevity in mission-critical environments

    Matrox Graphics Inc. announced today the introduction of three new fanless Mura(TM)
MPX Series video wall controller boards that build upon the line's revolutionary design.
Mura is the first PCI Express (PCIe) x16 Gen 2 board class to feature both HD resolution
inputs and outputs. The new fanless SKUs make use of the same high-performance,
single-slot design with 64 Gbit/sec duplex data transfer and feature four HD outputs and
either zero, two, or four HD inputs for maximum I/O flexibility. The fanless Mura boards
have no moving parts, helping to further increase Matrox's industry-leading reliability.
With the ability to create quieter systems and a jump to three-year warranties, Matrox
expects a relatively quick OEM adoption of these new Mura cards.

    Mura boards can be scaled from just one board to create small video wall controllers
to multi-board medium-sized and even very large-sized video wall controllers in order to
support a wide range of applications from presentation systems in conference rooms,
auditoriums, control rooms, and classrooms to collaboration systems used in surveillance
and process control systems. With support for HDCP capture and output, the Mura line is
also now very popular in advanced digital signage solutions.

    "With these fanless models, Mura further distinguishes itself as the market's video
wall controller board standard," said Helgi Sigurdsson, Product Manager, Matrox Graphics
Inc. "Even greater product reliability complements the high degrees of performance, image
quality, and scalability associated with Mura MPX Series."

    - Mura MPX-4/0 (four outputs, zero inputs)
      Part number: Mura-MPX40HF
    - Mura MPX-4/2 (four outputs, two inputs)
      Part number: Mura-MPX42HF

      Part number: Mura-MPX44HF

    Also available are Mura single-slot PCIe x4 analogue video input boards featuring
either 8 or 16 inputs and 8 Gbit/sec duplex data transfer. Each is compatible with Mura
input/output boards for the capture of additional analogue inputs on a given video wall
for greater customisation.

    Analogue Video Input Boards:

   
    - Mura MPX-V8 (8 inputs)
      Part number: Mura-MPXV8F
    - Mura MPX-V16 (16 inputs)
      Part number: Mura-MPXV16F

    Additionally, Mura third-generation SDI PCIe x16 controller boards, which capture and

duplex data transfer.

    SDI Input/DVI Output Boards:

   
    - Mura MPX-SDI (two DVI outputs, two 3G SDI inputs)

    All the Mura MPX Series products listed above are accompanied by three-year
warranties.

Prospect Mortgage Rolls Out New Real Estate Agent Learning (REAL) Program

SHERMAN OAKS, Calif., April 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Prospect Mortgage is holding a free webinar for real estate agents -- Mastering The Fundamentals of Client Acquisition-- Wednesday, April 4, 2012, at 11 a.m. Pacific.

Prospect's Chief Performance Officer Todd Duncan, a best-selling business author and prominent industry figure, will host the webinar and lead a discussion with executive coach Bill Hart.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20090617/LA34214LOGO-b)

The April 4 event is part of Prospect's Real Estate Agent Learning (REAL) program, which offers free education to meet the critical business learning needs of real estate agents and loan officers. Prospect offers REAL training through online modules, webinars and live events. To gain access to these materials, visit http://www.LearnWithProspect.com.

"We have produced successful real estate agent training events for years, but their reach has been limited to physical location," said Prospect Chief Marketing Officer Matthew Tully. "We moved our real estate education platform online this year so that any agent nationwide can take advantage of our free training content, webinars and live events through Prospect's 2012 REAL program."

Before Prospect moved its real estate education platform to the web, the Company surveyed 150,000 real estate agents nationwide in January 2012 to determine their priority business learning needs, the types of mortgage loans most important to their business, and the agent's preferred channels for receiving the training content.

"Lead generation, buyer aggregation, marketing, selling and customer/database relationship management topped the survey for priority learning needs," Tully said. "Renovation lending and financing for FHA, REO and short sales were top loan programs that agents want to know about. When it came to accessing the content, survey responders indicated that website content, email content and live webinars were the preferred access channels for agents, but also said that live events are still important to them."

Since rolling out last month, Prospect's REAL program has attracted 1,600 registered users. More than 600 real estate agents attended Prospect's first live webinar on lead generation held February 22. A recording of the event is available online, in addition to six new training modules. Registration is free and available to all. Go to http://www.LearnWithProspect.com  to register and access all training content.

Suspect Detection Systems Announces Filing of Form 15 to Terminate the Registration of its Common Stock

NEW YORK, April 2, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    Suspect Detection Systems Inc., (OTCBB: SDSS and SVF.BE), a developer of counter
terror and crime prevention technology, announced today that the company has filed Form 15
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The effect of this filing has effectively
suspended Suspect Detection Systems' reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and to terminate the registration of its common stock. The Company expects the
deregistration to become effective upon its filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

    Suspect Detection System's stock (SDSS) will continue to be traded on the OTC, on the
Pink Sheets Bulletin Board. The company intends to continue to maintain active status and
will fulfill the reporting obligations as required by the OTC markets in an ongoing and
timely fashion.

    Under the SEC's rules, a company with fewer than 300 record holders may voluntarily
terminate the registration of its securities by filing a Form 15 with the SEC. Suspect
Detection Systems currently has fewer than 300 record holders. The Company's duty to file
periodic and current reports with the SEC will be suspended immediately upon the filing of
the Form 15.

    The Board of Directors of Suspect Detection Systems decided to take this action after
due consideration and careful analysis. It compared the advantages and disadvantages of
deregistering and continuing to operate as a publicly, reporting company. The Board of
Directors concluded that the net benefits of deregistering outweighed those of continuing
as a public reporting company.

    Benefits included the elimination of direct and indirect costs associated with the
preparation and filing of the Company's periodic reports with the SEC. The Board also
considered the market value that the public markets have historically applied to the
Company's shares and took note of the fact that trading of the Company's stock has
historically been limited.

    "The deregulation of our common stock is in no way an indication of our commitment to
continue to implement our business model," said Gil Boosidan, CEO of Suspect Detection
Systems. "The prospects for the company remain bright, and Cogito Technology continues to
be utilized in several noteworthy commercial markets, both by federal and local law
enforcement agencies, as well as by private security firms."

    "In addition to servicing our ongoing security contracts, we remain confident in the
prospects for larger, additional sales in our existing markets, as well as in our
abilities to penetrate new markets. The demand for hi-tech security solutions remains
strong in the current uncertain global environment, and as such the demand for our
proprietary Cogito security system continues to grow."

    "And while we will no longer be bound by the reporting obligations of the SEC, the
company does intend to resume regular communications with the investment community as a
stock traded on the Pink Sheets," Boosidan added.

    About Suspect Detection Systems Suspect Detection Systems Inc., through its subsidiary
Suspect Detection Systems Ltd., is a developer of proprietary counter terrorism and crime
prevention technology designed to identify threats in real-time, and prevent incidents
before they are carried out. The technology detects the hidden "hostile intent" of
assailants - before they commit their intended acts - with a high degree of accuracy. The
system can also be used after a crime is committed to quickly identify criminals from
among a general population pool, including suspects.

meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All forward-looking statements are inherently

Serge Media Debuts With Launch of Million-Dollar "App Challenge" for New Mobile Video/Voice/Audio Search Platform

Serge SDK Challenge Provides Capital and Expertise to Mobile Application Developers

SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Incentivizing worldwide app developers to be part of the launch of a groundbreaking new mobile search platform, the recently launched Serge Media Corporation today announced the SergeSDK (Software Development Kit) Challenge, with cash prizes for the most successful developers reaching up to $1 million.

Serge is a promising new mobile search platform incorporating the most advanced voice, music, vision, barcode, QR code, location, augmented reality and video recognition technology. By letting consumers Search What You See(TM), mobile phone users no longer need to type search terms, but can simply speak or photograph an object - whether a barcode, product logo, even a video or film - to return search results provided by the brand owner. Through the Serge carousel, consumers can also select results from other sources, such as news and social networking sites.

To participate in the SergeSDK Challenge, developers are encouraged to put their creative skills to the test by submitting new and existing apps, which will join the first wave of Serge apps launching in Spring 2012. Existing apps with aggregated users just need to incorporate the Serge API to enter the challenge. Along with expert guidance from the Serge team, developers can earn sizable rewards depending on the number of downloads from each app and the time to achieve them. Rewards include $10,000 (30 days), $20,000 (60 days), $100,000 (90 days) and a cool $1 million for the first app to reach 20 million downloads. Developers can read rules, submit apps and track their download numbers on the SergeSDK website (http://www.SergeSDK.com) as well as Twitter (@SergeSDK).

Fueling a burgeoning marketplace with development capital, former Apple engineer Kevin Keheley teamed with TBA Global co-founder Brian Murphy and former Sun Microsystem veteran, Raymond "Larry" Smith to form Serge Media Corporation. Keheley, Murphy and Smith's combined management team have launched over a dozen successful media and technology companies. Together they bring decades of management, creative and marketing expertise to Serge Media and, by extension, developers who participate in the SergeSDK Challenge. Serge Media Corporation is backed by a Luxembourg-based financial consortium.

Serge Media President Kevin Keheley has been building and engineering iPhone apps since the start of iOS. Although most of the work Kevin was doing for Apple is under lock and key, his iOS skills programming were founded and mastered during this time. After Kevin's career at Apple, he worked at TapLynx, Double Encore, Inspiring Apps and AppVinyard. His roles have ranged from writing code and UI development to platform design.

As chief marketing officer for Serge Media, Brian Murphy draws from more than 30 years' experience in entertainment and technology. Before joining Serge, he served as EVP of branded entertainment at TBA Global, one of the world's leading marketing and communications companies. Prior to TBA, Murphy founded and served for seven years as CEO of Fearless Entertainment, a full-service entertainment marketing, production, and promotion company, and as EVP/general manager of Warner Custom Music, leading corporate marketing and promotion for Warner Music Group.

The Serge image and video recognition system, SVSv1, was developed by the company's CTO Raymond "Larry" Smith, a recognized software engineering pioneer. During two decades with Sun Microsystems, he proudly served as part of the early development team that implemented large-scale projects on the Solaris platform, also delivering other global projects and mission-critical applications across various Sun departments. Smith is also the author and creator of a wide variety of popular mobile phone applications for the iOS and Android platforms.

"We believe the SergeSDK is a revolutionary search tool with the ability to transform everything from the way consumers experience content, media and social networking to the way businesses can use the application to augment their operations and gain more traffic," stated Murphy. "Given its scope and functionality, the possibilities for this platform could eclipse all other search tools."

"With web search increasingly headed to mobile devices, Serge empowers these devices by allowing consumers to more directly interact with their environment," added Keheley. "We are confident that a whole new category of developers and entrepreneurs will emerge around the SergeSDK and build apps that can be even more interactive and dynamic."

To help kick start your spring cleaning, the experts will be providing consumers with simple guidelines, practical advice and useful fixes to help makeover the kitchen throughout the month of April.  In addition, Whirlpool® will be giving away a different kitchen appliance each week throughout "Kitchen Clean Up Month." From April 2 - April 30, consumers can enter to win on the sweepstakes tab of Whirlpool brand's Facebook page. A winner will be chosen at random from eligible participants.

From the refrigerator to the oven and even the dishwasher and the microwave, the following tips should get you started on a deep clean. Each week, the experts will share more tricks on Whirlpool brand's Facebook page and through Twitter (@kitchenSci).

April 2(nd): Clean Your Dishwasher Week

    --  Do your dishes seem to have a sandy feeling leftover when you take them
        out of the dishwasher? Well, did you know even an appliance made for
        cleaning can benefit from a cleaning itself?  The chemistry used in the
        new formula of affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner uses environmentally safe
        ingredients and offers improved cleaning performance to help remove
        mineral residue in dishwashers.  All it takes is a monthly cleaning
        routine to keep a dishwasher looking like new.
    --  Make sure to check the detergent dispenser, to ensure there is no
        leftover detergent in or around the dispenser that would inhibit it from
        opening.  Also, if you use a rinse aid make sure to wipe up any spills
        when you refill, as rinse aids will cause unwanted sudsing in the
        dishwasher.
April 9(th): Clean Your Refrigerator (and Freezer!) Week

    --  Does your refrigerator have a leftover odor, even after you have thrown
        out all the expired food? It's time for a full cleaning. Start by
        thoroughly hand washing, rinsing and drying the removable parts and
        interior surfaces of the refrigerator. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth
        and a mild detergent in warm water; make sure to check that there is no
        leftover moisture. Finally, clean the refrigerator door gaskets, as
        kitchen spills can splash in there and hide.
    --  And don't forget about the freezer - a simple tip is to rotate food
        items and check the date, to ensure that older items get selected first.
April 16(th): Clean Your Microwave Week

    --  Did the oatmeal you were heating overflow or even burst - and now is
        caked onto the cavity of the microwave? Put a cup of water in the
        microwave, let boil for 3-4 minutes to create moisture on the cavity
        walls to loosen anything that has been caked on.  Here's an added tip -
        add some lemon juice to the water to make your microwave smell great.
April 23(rd): Clean Your Oven Week

    --  Whether you're a cook or a baker, oven spills happen to everyone. Even
        if you own a traditional self-cleaning oven, manually cleaning grease
        and stuck on food can be quick and easy with the right product.  Start
        by ensuring oven is cool and removing oven racks. Then use a scour pad
        to remove burned-on food and carbon.  Spray a cleaning solution, like
        affresh(TM) Kitchen & appliance cleaner directly on insides of oven and
        wipe clean. A new technology coming out in May will make cleaning your
        oven a cinch by utilizing low heat and water to release baked-on spills
        in less than one hour.

LodgeNet Launches Industry's First Interactive Program Guide That Delivers an "At Home" TV Experience Without A Set-Top Box

Network-Based Solution Helps Hoteliers Provide a Highly Demanded Guest Amenity Without the Expense of Additional In-Room Hardware

SIOUX FALLS, S.D., April 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- LodgeNet Interactive Corporation (Nasdaq: LNET), the leading provider of interactive media and connectivity services to hospitality and healthcare businesses and the consumers they serve, today introduced an industry-first Interactive Program Guide (IPG) solution that provides "browse and select" channel switching without the need for SmartTVs or in-room set-top boxes (STBs). The solution's networked architecture delivers superior performance and greatly reduces costs while delivering the "at home" TV experience today's guests demand.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080115/AQTU120LOGO)

"With interactive program guides now a standard of in-home TV viewing, guests no longer tolerate fumbling around the room for a printed channel list that may or may not be up to date; they want the same real-time program information and convenience in the guest room that they enjoy at home," said Paul Johnson, Vice President of Product Management for LodgeNet. "Up until now, putting an IPG on the guest room TV has been costly and complicated due largely to the hardware required; but with our new solution many hoteliers can provide this amenity through the LodgeNet-compatible televisions they already have, without installing extra hardware in their rooms."

The LodgeNet IPG solution enhances the guest room TV experience with:

    --  Fast performance.  A highly responsive user interface allows the guests
        to select the programming they wish to view and instantly switch to that
        channel.
    --  Easy, familiar operation.  Guests click the GUIDE button on the remote
        to call up the IPG, and navigate with "scroll and select" navigation
        similar to IPGs at home.

SAN DIEGO, April 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics announced today it has teamed up with Walt Disney Parks and Resorts to promote its latest line of Handycam® camcorders in a new integrated marketing campaign that focuses on capturing and sharing family memories.

The "Share Magical Memories" co-branded campaign kicks off with a unique online contest and dedicated website hosted by Disney Interactive at http://www.disney.com/memories, where guests can submit a written entry about a special someone in their life, a family member, friend or educator, who has helped create a lasting memory. A panel of judges will review the stories about the special memory makers and select five grand prize winners.  Each grand prize winner will receivea vacation for themselves and three guests, plus a vacation for their memory makers and three guests to Walt Disney World Resort.  The winning families will also receive a Sony® HDR-PJ260V projector camcorder to document new memories before, during, and after their experience at Disney Parks.

There will also be a weekly sweepstakes on disney.com/memories where guests can enter daily on the site or text "SONY" to DISNEY (347639) on their mobile devices, for a chance to win prizes such as a $200 Disney gift card and a Sony HDR-PJ260V camcorder. One winner will be awarded per week.

"Sony is thrilled to be working with Disney Parks to promote its new line of Handycam camcorders," said Hidenori Toyoda, director of the camcorder business at Sony Electronics. "It's a perfect fit - they create magical memories for families and we make the products to capture and share those memories."

To support the campaign, a series of custom videos showcasing the new camcorders will be produced and featured on disney.com/memories and in retail stores. Some videos will be more educational and showcase the benefits of Handycam camcorder features, including built-in projection, low-light capabilities, Optical SteadyShot(TM) image stabilization, a wide angle lens and high zoom functionality. Videos will also be recorded at the Disney Parks, using Handycam camcorders, that capture guest's favorite Disney memories along with beloved Disney characters. In addition to the video series, the campaign will also be promoted through Sony and Disney's various social media channels.

"We are equally delighted to be working with Sony on this program," said Scott Cassidy, senior vice president, Disney Global Alliance Marketing. "Their newest line of Handycam camcorders clearly takes the idea of capturing and preserving great Disney Parks memories to a whole new level."

The "Share Magical Memories" campaign will also have a strong presence at Sony Stores and select electronics retailers nationwide.
