TSO Publishes ITIL(R) 2011

LONDON, September 7, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    - Update Enhances ITIL Guidance

    ITIL(R) 2011, published on 29 July by official publisher TSO, responds
to feedback from the community that reads, uses and trains from the guidance
and recognises emerging trends such as cloud computing, multi-vendor
sourcing, and new and updated international standards related to service
management. The updated publications enhance ITIL V1 and V2, and are
distinguishable from the 2007 edition by the inclusion of a new '2011
Edition' flash on updated front covers. Printed editions and downloadable
pdfs of the guidance are available now, with eBooks and Online Subscriptions
following soon.

    The new guidance provides improved publications with a focus on clarity,
consistency, correctness and completeness. Since the ITIL Service Lifecycle
books were published in 2007, trends towards the governance of IT, risk
management, standardisation, globalisation, sustainability and different
sourcing strategies have developed considerably. The update evolves the
original ITIL concepts to keep pace with the rapid advancement of business
and technology change, offering significant benefits whilst ensuring the
approach is both straightforward to understand and to implement.

    The authors have recognised that ensuring ease of use and continuity is
critical, and so the update has been designed to minimise the impact for
users and on existing software tools. Enhancements have been made to all
five areas of the Service Lifecycle:

    ITIL Service Strategy now includes more practical guidance and more
examples where relevant. A new process of strategy management for IT
services has been defined, with separate descriptions of business strategy
and IT strategy. Financial management has been expanded, and business
relationship management and demand management are now covered as processes.

    ITIL Service Design focuses on alignment with ITIL Service Strategy. A
number of concepts and principles have been clarified, most significantly
the flow and management of activity throughout the overall service design
stage and the addition of a 'design coordination' process.

    In ITIL Service Transition, the key concepts of the configuration
management system (CMS) and the service knowledge management system (SKMS)
have been made more straightforward to understand and new content has been
added to explain how a change proposal should be used, and to show how asset
management relates to the service asset and configuration management
process. Further improvements have been made to change management, release
and deployment management, and change evaluation.

    ITIL Service Operation now incorporates process flows across all areas,
including request fulfillment, access management and event management. The
publication now explains how basic events flow into filters and rule engines
to produce meaningful event information and the guidance around service
requests, request models, and proactive problem management has been
clarified, together with the distinction between application management and
application development.

    The ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) seven-step process has been
clarified, together with its relationship with the Deming
'plan-do-check-act' cycle and knowledge management. The CSI approach now
includes a CSI register where details of all improvement initiatives within
an organisation may be recorded. Emphasis has been placed on the interfaces
from CSI to other lifecycle stages.

    Janine Eves, Contract Manager at Official Publisher TSO, comments: "Our
focus has been on ensuring that ITIL continues to communicate best practice
across the very latest advancements in business and technology change, from
the perspectives of both users and trainers. For example, improvements to
the ITIL guidance on multi-vendor sourcing will help a service provider to
manage the challenges around governance and the management of multiple
providers, spreading the risk and reducing costs. Likewise, the ITIL update
explains how IT service management is impacted by the prevalence of cloud
computing, offering guidance on current thinking around service strategies,
sourcing structures and delivery models for cloud services. The updated
guidance reflects the latest international standards relating to service
management, including the 2011 edition of ISO/IEC 20000-1: Requirements."

    The new publications, bearing the '2011 Edition' flash, will initially
be available in English with translations to follow. Priority languages
include Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Portugese and Spanish. Prices for
the hard copies and all electronic formats will remain the same as the 2007
editions. Online subscribers will receive the update free of charge.

    TSO has published a special edition of the ITIL eNewsletter
[http://www.best-management-practice.com/gempdf/ITIL_eNewsletter_August_2011.pdf ]
to introduce ITIL 2011 edition and a comprehensive Summary of Updates
[http://www.best-management-practice.com/gempdf/ITIL_2011_Summary_of_Updates.pdf ]
document. The eNewsletter incorporates reviews from each author, an
overview of changes for each core title, details of the publication formats
and availability, and a 2011 Glossary

Sony Launches F65 CineAlta Camera and Unveils End-to-End 4K Workflow for Digital Cinematography

Breakthrough Price and IT-based Open Platform Technology Deliver Unprecedented Levels of Production Flexibility for Content Creators

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics officially raised the curtain on its F65 CineAlta(TM) digital motion picture camera system, ushering in a new era of digital cinematography. Before a select audience of American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) members, press and high-profile industry professionals, Sony screened new F65 footage shot by leading DPs, demonstrated new features and announced its roll-out plan for the revolutionary camera, including availability and a surprisingly accessible price of just $65,000 (with viewfinder).

(Photo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110906/LA63605)

Announced here only days before the F65 will be shown to a worldwide audience at the IBC conference in Amsterdam, the new camera clearly signals Sony's commitment to the Hollywood community and to developing the production technologies content creators need.

The F65 derives true 4K resolution - and beyond - at the point of image capture. "4K" resolution is 4096 x 2160, which is more than four times greater than the full HD (1920x1080) spec. Its unique 8K image sensor, with approximately 20 total megapixels, offers higher image fidelity than any other digital cinema production camera. With 16-bit Linear RAW File output capability, the F65 creates the gateway to an end-to-end 4K file-based mastering workflow.

"This is the camera Hollywood has asked for, designed specifically for filmmakers," said Alec Shapiro, senior vice president of Sony's Professional Solutions of America group. "The ability to shoot content in true native 4K resolution lets filmmakers capture more of what they're seeing through the lens to fully realize their vision. The F65's incredible imager captures more data, which translates to more information that can be put up on the screen. And access to an open and inclusive platform enables the integration of an F65 file-based workflow into other systems, creating truly exciting, and limitless, production opportunities."

Sony first announced the F65 at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) show in April, and the camera has already distinguished itself by offering superb resolution, incredible dynamic range and the truest color reproduction of any available camera.

With its latest enhancements and features, the F65's capabilities now include:

    --  14 stops High Dynamic Range with much wider color gamut
    --  Rotary shutter model (F65RS) to remove motion artifacts; four ND Filter
        built-in with rotary shutter.
    --  Wi-fi operation for remote control operation from tablet devices
        (including the Android-based Sony Tablet S and Apple iPad)
    --  HD-SDI output with viewing LUT for on-set monitoring with focus assist
        zoom
    --  60 Minutes of 16 bit Linear RAW file recording onto a 1TB SRMemory card
        at 24FPS

Sony also introduced a dockable SRMemory recorder - model SR-R4 - which attaches to the camera to record directly to an SRMemory card of 256 GB, 512 GB or 1TB capacity with data security and sustained throughput of 5.5 Gbps.

Sony is now unveiling a powerful new capability for the F65/SR-R4 combination - the ability to switch recording between 16-bit linear RAW File and MPEG-4 SStP File modes.  Users can configure the camera on a project-by-project basis, selecting either 16-bit linear RAW File for ultimate quality acquisition or high speed operation at up to 120FPS, or MPEG-4 SStP File (HDCAM SR native) for exceptional quality HD recording.  MPEG-4 SStP File also provides full compatibility for viewing, offline and post production using either the free Sony PC or MAC viewer or products using the new Sony Software Development Kit.

The F65 is in high demand by the motion picture production industry, and Sony is now taking orders for the new camera. The first rental company in Hollywood to take delivery will be Otto Nemenz International.

"The F65 is more than just a new camera; it's a complete system and a revolutionary approach to the digital production workflow," said company president Otto Nemenz. "My customers are looking for the latest and greatest, and this technology more than fits the bill. I'm proud to be the first to carry this camera."

New CineAlta(TM) Branding

Since its introduction more than 10 years ago, the CineAlta brand has come to represent the benchmark for the highest quality digital cinematography acquisition.  Now, to coincide with the launch of the F65, Sony is introducing a new CineAlta logo, signifying acquisition quality at "Beyond HD" resolution and reflecting the open nature of the F65 and its file based approach.

The new logo is designed to resemble the symbol for infinity, as the F65 with its new image sensor makes true 4K production real today and provides viable image acquisition for many years and future applications to come.  The logo will be applied to all Sony system components that enable digital imaging beyond the 1920 x 1080 HD format.

"From the success of Sony 4K projectors which are driving digital cinema in movie theaters and creating demand for 4K content, to the staggering creative possibilities offered by the F65, no other company can deliver the total 4K lens to theater experience that Sony can," Shapiro said.  Sony has already installed more than 9,000 4K projectors in cinemas worldwide.

The F65 digital motion picture camera line-up is scheduled to be available in January direct from Sony: The F65, with viewfinder for $65,000; the F65RS (Built in Rotary Shutter Model), with viewfinder for $77,000; and SR-R4 dockable recorder for $20,000. All will also be available through Sony authorized resellers.

AT&T Hiring U-verse Technicians in Wisconsin to Help Support Fastest Growing TV Service in U.S.

Governor Walker Joins AT&T in Announcing Additional Jobs in Wisconsin

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* today announced it has begun hiring 101 technicians across the state to support its AT&T U-verse® business, the fastest growing advanced television service in the country. Governor Scott Walker joined AT&T at an event today where AT&T outlined its hiring plans and underscored its commitment to expanding its mobile broadband network in Wisconsin.

AT&T U-verse® services (including AT&T U-verse TV, AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet and AT&T U-verse Voice) are now available to more than 800,000 living units in more than 140 communities in Wisconsin.

"I commend AT&T for continuing to grow Wisconsin's economy by adding these important jobs," said Governor Walker. "These are high tech jobs that provide competitive wages and benefits that are among the best in the telecommunications industry."

The announcement was made at AT&T's Wisconsin corporate offices in Milwaukee. Governor Walker was joined at today's event by AT&T Wisconsin President Scott VanderSanden.

"We are expanding the availability of our award-recognized AT&T U-verse services and signing up new customers every day, and we need more U-verse technicians to keep up with the growing demand," said Scott VanderSanden, AT&T Wisconsin president. "We're proud to serve so many local communities in Wisconsin with our advanced U-verse services and proud of the quality jobs our U-verse investment has created."

AT&T invested nearly $800 million in its Wisconsin wireless and wireline networks from 2008 through 2010.

In addition to adding new jobs and expanding AT&T U-verse to more living units across the state, already this year, AT&T has expanded its mobile broadband network capacity in Oshkosh and Green Bay, and activated new mobile broadband coverage in Wausau and Eau Claire.

"A more advanced mobile broadband experience helps to drive economic growth, stimulate jobs and equips Wisconsin businesses to meet the rapidly increasing demand for mobile broadband service," said Dave Fine, AT&T vice president and general manager for AT&T in Wisconsin and Illinois. "We've significantly ramped up investment in our wireless network to enable an experience that offers Wisconsin consumers better mobile broadband speed."

"Our recently announced agreement to acquire T-Mobile USA also represents a major commitment to strengthen and expand our network in Wisconsin," added Scott VanderSanden. "If approved, this deal means that we'll be able to expand the next generation of mobile broadband - 4G LTE - from our current plan of 80 percent of the U.S. population to more than 97 percent."

AT&T is one of the largest employers in America and the nation's largest private employer of full-time union employees. With highly competitive wages and benefits, AT&T jobs are among the best in the U.S. AT&T premises technicians are responsible for service installation and customer care, working both inside customer homes and outside on AT&T's advanced network.

Ace Marketing Completes Additional 50 Mall Rollout of its Location-Based Mobile Marketing Network (Mobiquity Networks) Bringing the Total to 67 US Malls

NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Ace Marketing & Promotions, Inc. (OTC.BB: AMKT) announce today their Location-Based Mobile Marketing Network (known as Mobiquity Networks) has completed its initial expansion to an additional 50 malls in the third quarter of 2011, bringing the total to 67 malls across the US. Ace has also completed the testing phase on the 50 new malls and has begun generating revenue over the network.

Mobiquity Networks (a wholly owned subsidiary of Ace) is a leading provider of location-based mobile marketing solutions. Ace is building one of the Nation's largest location-based Proximity Marketing networks. Proximity Marketing is a marketing tool that delivers messages to any Bluetooth or Wi-Fi enabled device within a 300ft radius from a central terminal. Mobiquity's technology permits delivery to virtually any mobile device and properly formats each message to ensure that every user receives the best possible experience. Results are fully trackable, giving campaigns a true level of accountability. Mobiquity offers brands the opportunity to reach millions of consumers with relevant, engaging content which is completely measurable for the advertisers and free for the user. A Proximity Marketing unit can detect the total number of mobile devices in a specific area and then dynamically present a highly relevant message to consumers. The consumer receives a message requesting approval and once acceptance is granted, the user can receive a range of rich media content utilized by advertisers for promotional purposes. Some campaign elements delivered through this medium include movie trailers, coupons, special offers, announcements, ring tones and screen savers. Through this marketing medium, advertisers can track metrics and analytics in a much more targeted way and quantitatively measure the effectiveness of their campaigns. Additionally, it does not require users to download apps or be tracked by GPS, two of the often heard criticism of traditional location-based mobile campaigns.

Mobiquity Networks units are strategically positioned near entrances, anchor stores, escalators and other high-traffic and high dwell-time areas throughout each mall to maximize advertising messaging reach and frequency. Ace's Mobiquity Networks now has over 550 advertising zones across the 67 mall network, giving advertisers the ability to deliver messaging to approximately 90 million mall visits per month.

Michael Trepeta, Mobiquity Networks CEO, added, "This is a very exciting time for the Company. We have spent the last several months securing key relationships and agreements, while physically deploying the network. Now it's time to let everyone know what we've built. This is only the beginning; we plan to continue expanding our mall network and will soon release an exciting new Location-Based Mobile Shopping Solution that will run on our existing network infrastructure. This will allow shoppers to browse for local specials, coupons and discounts from their favorite retailer on their mobile device while at the mall.  The local experience will take place on our physical network that already resides within each mall and will not require the user to download an app."

Go Straight to the Head of the Class With an Organized Kitchen

Enter to Win a New Whirlpool® Refrigerator and Microwave on Whirlpool Brand's Facebook Page

BENTON HARBOR, Mich., Sept. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Ready for that first day of school?Whirlpool brand wants to help you get an A+ in the kitchen with some tips and tricks from the Whirlpool Institute of Kitchen Science, and give you a chance to win some of the latest kitchen innovations.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110404/NY75862LOGO )

To help ease the morning lunch and snack packing rush, below are the ABC's of refrigerator organization from the experts at Whirlpool brand.

    1. Get Rid of Lingering Leftovers.  Just like you clean out your closets and
       backpacks for new clothes and school supplies, start fresh by clearing
       the refrigerator. Use the three "E" rules as your guidelines - if it's
       expired, empty or makes you say "ew," toss it.
    2. Nobody Likes A Smelly Locker. Your fridge needs to be cleaned too! Take
       everything out of the refrigerator to get started and then wash drawers,
       bins, and compartments with soap and water.
    3. One of These is Not like the Other.  Now use your sorting skills to group
       similar items together, such as proteins or dairy, and begin returning
       items to the refrigerator.

To help you stay organized in the kitchen this Back-to-School season, Whirlpool brand is giving away two of their newest kitchen appliances, a new Top-Freezer refrigerator and a stylish compact microwave. One lucky Facebook winner will receive both appliances by entering at http://www.facebook.com/whirlpoolstarting on Sept. 6, 2011. "Like" us on Facebook and tell us your favorite First day of school memory and enter for a chance to win on the Sweepstakes tab!*

What's New In The Kitchen?

Whirlpool brand recently introduced two new 21 cu. ft. top-freezer refrigerators, including one with interior water dispense to help fill your family's recyclable water bottles with fresh, filtered water. The new refrigerators also feature the FreshFlow(TM) Produce Preserver and FreshFlow(TM) air filter; patented features that can help extend the life of your produce up to 25% longer and reduce common refrigerator odors.

Beyond an organized refrigerator, streamlining your countertops can save time and add space. Whirlpool brand's sleek new compact microwave has a unique rounded back that allows it to fit into corners, making it ideal for tight spaces. And just because it's compact doesn't mean this new model can't handle the dinner rush hour - it can fit a full dinner plate thanks to a glass turntable that is larger than those in standard comparable microwaves. With an integrated handle and console, blue LED display and Tap Touch controls, this modern model is a great addition to any kitchen.

*Official rules can be found on the Sweepstakes tab.
