New maXTouch mXT112E family combines key features of proven maXTouch technology to serve fast growing, high-volume 2.8 to 3.5-inch touchscreen market, including digital still cameras, feature phones, gaming consoles, GPS and more

SAN JOSE, Calif., June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Atmel® Corporation (NASDAQ: ATML), a leader in microcontroller and touch solutions, today announced the Atmel maXTouch(TM) mXT112E controller optimized for 2.8- to 3.5-inch touchscreens for the fast growing consumer markets including feature phones, digital still cameras, global positioning systems (GPS), gaming consoles and other high-volume devices. The Atmel maXTouch mXT112E includes all the proven functions of the maXTouch E series tailored to meet the precise needs of these exciting consumer devices.

The Atmel maXTouch mXT112E enables true single-layer touchscreens, resulting in screens that are thinner, lighter and brighter. Similar to the Atmel E-series family, this device offers the most advanced signal processing algorithms to mitigate noise from a wider range of LCD displays, environmental noise and interference from after-market chargers.

The Atmel maXTouch mXT112E allows up to four simultaneous touches, a level of performance that has previously only been seen in the smartphone market. Similar to other Atmel maXTouch E series products, its advanced touch processing rejects unintentional touches caused by a gripping hand, while interpreting light touches correctly for gestures made on the devices. Unlike competing solutions, it can support a narrow passive stylus input even while the user's hand is resting on the screen in a natural writing position. All these features come with Atmel's industry-leading power consumption for excellent battery life, and its extreme responsiveness due to a report rate of up to 250Hz.

"With the mass adoption of touchscreens on smartphones and tablets, consumers are demanding touchscreen capability on nearly all consumer devices," said Helen Francis, sr. marketing manager, Atmel Corporation. "The launch of Atmel mXT112E helps address this need by providing consumers with a 'touch-smart-phone' experience that is intuitive to use, includes better battery life, superior touch performance, and has a more intuitive interface for applications such as digital still cameras, feature phones and GPS."

Reality Mobile® Announces Availability of Beta Version of RealityVision® Sensor Gateway(TM)

Sensor Gateway Allows Sensor Outputs and Associated Visual Data  to be Pushed Directly to RealityVision Users at the Time of a Triggering Event

HERNDON, Va., June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Reality Mobile®, a Virginia-based technology company delivering enterprise-class real-time mobile video collaboration solutions, today announced the availability of the beta version of their new Sensor Gateway(TM) for RealityVision®.

RealityVision allows enterprise users to collectively visualize high-value assets and share data with colleagues anywhere in the world. The gateway is another example of the company's commitment to translating important information, in real-time, into visual data that organizations can immediately use and leverage.  The gateway leverages the full RealityVision enterprise functionality, so that all visual information created through the gateway is delivered securely to remote users, archived for forensic purposes, and available for immediate redistribution and analysis within the enterprise.

Enterprise organizations and government agencies rely on sensors to manage key operations and processes, including security, intrusion detection, SCADA systems and other industrial controls, and many other applications. The RealityVision gateway extends existing sensor notification systems by enabling event information from sensors to be communicated directly to RealityVision users on their mobile devices at the time the trigger is activated. For example, an array of sensors may be monitoring condition information, such as temperature, vibration, humidity, radiation levels or leak detection. That information can be augmented with additional real-time data, including video from IP cameras located near the scene. By leveraging RealityVision's existing Screencasting capability, sensor data being rendered on a PC screen within an enterprise control room can also be shared automatically as a live visual stream, allowing remote employees and control center operators to visualize the relevant information at the same time.

Enterprises deploy a vast array of sensors.  To avoid information overload, the gateway allows the enterprise to easily customize what sensors will be made available for notification by individual employees. A supervisor tracking an incident, for example, may only wish to receive notifications from sensors 12, 14 and 20 for a designated period of time, while preserving the flexibility to add or remove other sensors as needed. In the case where multiple sensor outputs are being rendered on a single PC screen, a remote user may want to view all or a portion of the PC screen.

Other examples of how the notification gateway could be leveraged for both government agencies and commercial enterprises can be found on the company's web site.

"Many enterprises have asked us to help them better visualize sensor data, particularly at the mobile edge, and we are very pleased to make our sensor gateway available to them and to our strategic partners," said Brian Geoghegan, EVP and Chief Product Officer, Reality Mobile. "The gateway is a very powerful extension to the RealityVision platform, it leverages our existing patented processes and it furthers our goal to help the enterprise map delivery of critical event information to the right personnel, wherever they may be located."

"Standard sensor notification systems by themselves can only provide a static snapshot of what has already happened," added David Rensin, co-founder and Chief Scientist, Reality Mobile. "The RealityVision Sensor Gateway enhances existing alerts by showing you events in real-time as they continue to unfold."

Existing customers and other organizations interested in becoming Beta testers for RealityVision's Sensor Gateway should visit the company's website and complete a request form.

About Reality Mobile

Founded in 2003, Reality Mobile is expanding the frontiers of enterprise mobile technology by giving users access to video, data, sensors and expertise throughout their organization and around the world at the push of a button. With a focus on meeting the enterprise need for strict security, rigorous manageability, collaboration and real-time decision making, RealityVision allows organizations to simultaneously share multiple information flows in an instant.

Server Technology Launches Next Generation Sentry Power Manager 5.0 Rack-Level Data Center Power Management Solution

New user interface combines with feature-rich functionality to help manage mission critical operations more efficiently and more cost effectively

RENO, Nev., June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Server Technology Inc., the global leader for Cabinet Power Distribution Unit and Power Measurement and Monitoring Solutions, today launched a significant update to the Sentry Power Manager (SPM) solution, version 5.0. "A world class interface with a single pane of glass view to manage an entire cabinet power distribution (CDU) network, incredible new functionality and flexibility -- data center professionals will be impressed with the significant innovations that we've made with this version of SPM," said Brandon Ewing, president of Server Technology. "SPM is the most comprehensive and affordable solution available today to measure, monitor and trend power at the rack or device level within a data center. The SPM solution provides the critical power information from IT equipment that data center management needs to make informed decisions about power and energy use," said Ewing.

"We're excited about launching SPM 5.0 for a number of reasons," said Calvin Nicholson, Senior Director of Software and Firmware Development. "The new user interface brings an intuitive, world class design and functionality to our solution, enhancing the CDU monitoring and management capabilities, especially with all the innovative features we've added," said Nicholson. "Users can set up their own custom network operations center (NOC) views for whatever they want to see - from global dashboard views down to each CDU, each cabinet, each location. The new icon-based management functionality makes it easy," added Nicholson.

SPM is a unique data management tool in that it can serve as a user interface to cabinet power information and/or as a middleware solution, integrating with a variety of existing data center infrastructure management (DCIM) solutions. SPM provides data center power and environmental information via an Application Programming Interface (API) for a true "single pane of glass" view. In either application, SPM allows users to manage their entire CDU network for discovery, setup, configuration and firmware upgrades, as well as receive email alerts and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap forwarding and alarms.  Additionally, SPM can monitor CDUs from APC, Raritan, Geist and others.

New features and functionality in SPM 5.0 include:

. User Defined Customer NOC views. SPM's new user interface makes it easy for users to set up their own NOC views, from a global dashboard, to each CDU, cabinet, location, outlet, outlet groups and clusters and system alarm status zones for contents, recent events and trends.

. Circuit and Line Management. Users can now balance their 3-phase lines, mapping out and managing the physical infrastructure of their power systems feeding one or many cabinets, each with one or many CDUs, to provide information, contents, recent events and trends.

. Improved Scheduling. Users can now create and save reports and schedule reports and send automatically via email, including scheduling outlet actions, device discovery reports and trends, backup, outlet group and clusters and database maintenance.

. Intelligent Data Grid Management. New Intelligent Data Filtering Technology allows users to show specific information and manage, sort and export large blocks of data instantly.

. Enhanced Search. Users can now search on virtually anything as well as have multiple search results open and worked concurrently, aided by hot links within the search.

. Automatic Firmware Upgrades. SPM will now autodiscover new CDUs and automatically upgrade the firmware when new versions are released.

.Global Thresholds. Users can now set thresholds for their CDU network globally, receiving email alerts when those thresholds are exceeded, active alarm monitoring and reports on alarm history.

. Integrated Online Help. Extensive help functionality and FAQs are now easily accessible online.

Flash Networks Releases Key Predictions for Mobile Internet Traffic

HERZLIA, Israel, June 29, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    - Data Collected by Harmony Mobile Internet Services Gateway Installed
at Several Global Tier 1 Operators

    Flash Networks, a leading global provider of intelligent mobile Internet
solutions, announced today its predictions for the top bandwidth consuming
applications and peak hours throughout the globe, as a basis to forecast
future traffic trends. Results show that high definition multimedia
streaming and longer browsing sessions are putting significant strain on
network resources, which will only intensify with increased penetration of
the mobile Internet.

    Flash Networks' study reveals that worldwide, streaming music and video
are consuming more and more bandwidth when compared with traditional
browsing. In North America, video as a percent of mobile traffic is fast
approaching 50%, while in Asia, video is the largest contributor to network
traffic, consuming 56% of the bandwidth.

    One contributing factor is the proliferation of high definition video;
the same video content on YouTube today consumes three times the megabytes
compared with just a year ago. It is not surprising, therefore, that when
video viewing was at its peak and no optimization was applied, network
interrupts occurred for up to 20% of browsing attempts, demonstrating how
excessive video traffic impacts user quality of experience.

    In addition to richer and larger data files that need to be moved
through the network, session length is also increasing in both the US and
Asia. In North America, close to 5% of mobile sessions involve users viewing
over 30 minutes of streaming video at a time. In Asia, this number is
slightly lower but the positive trend is consistent.

    The study also revealed that unlike Asia Pacific where there are peak
traffic periods during commuting hours and lunch time, in North America
traffic builds gradually throughout the day beginning at 7:00 AM, with peak
hours from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM. This means that in North America network
optimization may be required consistently throughout the day and not just
before or after work hours.

    This information was provided by Harmony Analytics, installed on
operator networks worldwide for better network planning and more effective
network optimization. Sophisticated network optimization solutions combined
with Analytics enable operators to provide a consistently superior user
experience, even during peak traffic periods.

    "That video is dominating traffic on mobile networks isn't surprising,"
noted Peter Jarich, Service Director with Current Analysis. "Beyond the big
trends, however, what's important is the ability to understand and get
insight into specific traffic mixes. Unless operators have a deep
understanding of the traffic running across their networks, there's no way
they can hope to effectively monetize or optimize the user experience -
making the most of their network assets."

    "Today mobile operators are being judged based on the speed of their
browsing while at the same time richer high-definition content and longer
browsing sessions are increasing the likelihood of degrading the user
experience," said Merav Bahat, Vice President of Marketing and Business
Development at Flash Networks. "Operators can create a competitive
differentiator by optimizing data using sophisticated techniques such as
busy hour management, while ensuring a superior user experience with more
cost-efficient capacity utilization."

    About Flash Networks

    Flash Networks [http://www.flashnetworks.com ] is a global provider of
intelligent mobile Internet solutions that enable operators to improve
quality of experience, reduce network operational expenses, and manage and
monetize the mobile Internet. Providing a faster, safer, richer, and more
personalized user experience, Flash Networks' Harmony Mobile Internet
Services Gateway helps operators achieve significant cost savings through
intelligent data traffic optimization, and applies intelligent policies for
targeted marketing and charging. With offices in Europe, Asia, and North

"Useful" iPad Apps for Business and Balanced Scorecard

MADRID, June 29, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    What's a business application? It's one that helps our business.

    And what's a useful business application? It's one that helps to
"improve productivity" and makes easier our Business.

    (Photo: http://bscipad.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/mnfij5zx.png)

    The difference is important, there are many business apps and we have to
select those "useful business apps".

    The Appstore categories differentiate their nature but do not guarantee
their effectiveness in "improving our productivity." Let me tell you my
experience as an entrepreneur and how iPad helps me:

    The first time I used an iPad I asked myself if I already had a desktop
computer, a laptop and a mobile phone with an Internet connection, why buy
an iPad?

    I firstly used to read emails and access Internet, later I used to read
news and download interesting apps that help me in my work.

    But something was missing, people talk about mobility, data available
anywhere, anytime, and ease to use. I needed a tool that would allow me to
manage my company's strategy, see the most important objectives at a glance,
indicators to tell me if I'm in the right way to compare my budget to
reality and to analyze variations.

    That's when I was thinking on Balanced Scorecard [http://www.bscipad.com ]
methodology, a well known and prestigious methodology used by large
companies. There was the solution I needed, but the problem was the software
price, too high for my small business.

    Putting together all these needs and concerns, a brilliant idea was born
to create a business app for iPad to help companies design and manage the
achievement of strategies easily and effectively: "BSC-i: Balanced
Scorecard"
[http://itunes.apple.com/app/balanced-scorecard/id414209134?mt=8 ].

    Later, due to the popular success of this app we created another two
specialized app for Human Resources
[http://itunes.apple.com/app/balanced-scorecard-for-human/id428923224?mt=8 ]
and Non-Profit Organizations
[http://itunes.apple.com/app/balanced-scorecard-for-nonprofits/id428926936?mt=8 ]
, evolving each version with new features.

    Also, few days ago we uploaded a free LITE
[http://itunes.apple.com/app/balanced-scorecard-lite/id417195942?mt=8 ]
version at Appstore.

    The key of these apps are usability, simplicity and design, getting a
unique experience for the user and placing at the palm of its hand the
control of its business.

    To better understand what this app can do for your Business please watch
this video [http://youtu.be/J0Cr6PK8BGk ]

Epsilon Unveils Innovative Security Enhancements to Global Email Marketing Platform

Unique Custom Security Solution from Verizon Enables Advanced Intrusion Detection; Epsilon Introduces IP White Listing and Two-Factor Authentication

DALLAS, June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Epsilon, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alliance Data, announced new security enhancements to create a more secure global email marketing platform, including a close collaboration with Verizon to deploy a number of new leading-edge data security measures.

Epsilon's new security features, along with innovative technologies from Verizon, provide enhanced protection for its information technology (IT) infrastructure. Combining intelligence from Verizon's expansive global-IP network, their insight into Internet traffic, one of the largest databases of breach statistics and frontline experience against the world's most sophisticated hackers, the new, custom cloud-based service provides a significant improvement over conventional methods of breach detection.

Leveraging Verizon's ability to track malicious IP addresses every day, Epsilon is able to identify and mitigate "electronic crimes in motion" in a way that has not been possible until now. Epsilon is the first and only marketing service provider in the industry to join forces with Verizon, a recognized leader in managed security services and intrusion detection. (See Verizon's related announcement)

In addition, Epsilon has instituted stringent new access restrictions through its IP certification requirements. All access to the email platform, both inbound and outbound, will be restricted to white-listed IP addresses. Further, Epsilon has enhanced user security by implementing two-factor authentication. Two-factor authentication is a security process that requires two means of identification to gain system access, adding significant additional protections beyond conventional strong password requirements. Two-factor authentication, currently in place for employees, will be extended to all clients in Q3 2011.

Finally, Epsilon is presently working with top Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to safeguard consumers by building an unprecedented anti-phishing solution. Epsilon's anti-phishing efforts include developing an open, rapid communication channel between marketers and ISPs, methods to easily differentiate legitimate communications from fraudulent ones, and, finally, a way to monitor brand abuse across email domains. This solution, currently in development, is anticipated for presentation and release to clients in Q4 2011.

"We recognize that established industry standards are simply not enough in this day and age.  Epsilon has always taken security seriously and consistently surpassed industry standards and requirements. This commitment continues at Epsilon where we have already made significant progress to bolster security measures and remains focused on creating a more secure environment using the most sophisticated resources available in order to protect our clients and their customers from cyber attacks," said Bryan Kennedy, president and CEO of Epsilon. "Working with Verizon gives Epsilon access to the best security tools, technologies and expertise in the world to combat cybercrime in near real time."

"We are excited to bring our expertise and knowledge base to Epsilon to improve the way they protect their IT infrastructure. This solution allows them to detect and mitigate crimes as they are happening, so that hackers can be stopped in their tracks," said Peter Tippett, vice president of security and industry solutions for Verizon. "As cybercriminals become more sophisticated, so must cyber security and data protection."

Epsilon's Email Institute, a best practices destination for email marketers, will host a Global ISP and Policy Forum in San Francisco on October 20th to facilitate an ongoing dialogue among email industry innovators, share knowledge and create a new standard in email marketing security.

About Epsilon

Epsilon is the industry's leading marketing services firm, with a broad array of data-driven, multichannel marketing solutions that leverage consumer insight to help brands deepen their relationships with customers. Services include strategic consulting, acquisition and customer database technologies, loyalty management, proprietary data, predictive modeling and a full range of direct and digital agency services, including creative, interactive web design, email deployment, search engine optimization and direct mail production.

Online Services Get Patients InQuickER

LOS ANGELES, June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Anyone who has recently visited a hospital emergency room knows that there is often a wait before non-urgent patients can be seen by a physician. Patients with life-threatening conditions must be treated first, of course, but in Los Angeles County, the closure of so many ERs has left the remaining facilities overburdened with patients. The recession has also left many community residents out of work and without health insurance, so patients are using the ER as their primary source of medical care. Lakewood Regional Medical Center is addressing lengthy ER wait times with online services that promise to get patients in to see a doctor quicker. That was certainly the case for Jean Law and her young son.

To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/online-services-get-patients-inquicker-124659169.html

"I'm a new mom, and my son is only a couple of months old," she states. "He developed a fever on a Friday night, and I knew I couldn't wait until Monday morning to take him to his pediatrician." Jean had seen bus ads promoting Lakewood Regional's new InQuickER service, which allows patients needing to see a doctor to go online and select an appointment time convenient for them. The service guarantees that the patient will be seen within 15 minutes of their appointment time in the ER, or the nominal fee is refunded. The service worked like clockwork for Jean.

"I logged on around 2 am and selected an appointment time of 5:00 am," she recalls. "When we arrived, I was taken right in to see the doctor." Jean appreciated the quick service, as well as being able to avoid waiting in the ER. "When you have a child that young, the last thing you want to do is to expose them to other sick people," she wisely notes.

Carole York was equally satisfied with the InQuickER service, as well. She was having trouble sleeping after a fall because of side pain and decided it was time to see a doctor. As a retired medical social worker, she knows what to expect of emergency rooms and Lakewood Regional exceeded those expectations.

"My experience with Lakewood's emergency department was excellent," she declares. "Sitting around waiting to see a medical professional, especially if -- as in my case -- it was not a life threatening emergency, is frustrating. I went online on a Saturday at 9 and took an 11 am appointment time. I got in right away. I would guess that InQuickER is also helpful to the physicians and nurses because they can better triage and prioritize cases based on need and urgency. In addition, the staff was fabulous. The nurse practitioner who saw me, Glenda, was warm and professional, and she followed up promptly the next day when I was having problems with my medication."

InQuickER is not the only new digital tool that empowers patients to take more control over their care. Lakewood Regional posts "real time" wait times on its website so patients can decide when it's time for them to come in to the ER. And the hospital recently unveiled its own mobile application to further connect the hospital to community members and increase access to health-related information.

The mobile applications are available as a free download for Apple and Android products. The application allows users to directly access the InQuickER registration screen and view ER wait times as well as maps and directions to Lakewood Regional. It also offers a list of frequently-dialed hospital numbers, a physician finder, first aid guide and health library. The "My Data" feature allows users to record important health information such as medical history, physician contacts, medications, allergies, emergency contacts and insurance information. Free downloads are available at http://www.LakewoodApps.com or by scanning the QR code with your Smart Phone device.

"Every day, people look for ways to manage their health care. InQuickER lets patient take more control of their schedules when they need to see a doctor. And mobile applications provide a convenient and easy way to access health-related information," said Joseph Badalian, chief executive officer.  "The time has come to offer this technology to members of our community."

Great Wolf Lodge Debuts Social Media First For Waterpark Industry

Great Wolf Connect allows direct Facebook photo sharing through RFID technology

GRAND MOUND, Wash., June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Great Wolf Resorts® (NASDAQ: WOLF), North America's largest family of indoor waterpark resorts, is debuting a new technology that's a social media first for the industry. Great Wolf Connect, launching first at Great Wolf Lodge® - Grand Mound, allows guests to link the radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology in their waterpark wristbands with their Facebook accounts to automatically share photos from photo-friendly Paw Posts throughout the resort.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110628/CG27475LOGO)

This new use of RFID technology will allow guests to have photos taken, which are then automatically posted to their Facebook page throughout their visit. Capturing this instant "wish you were here" moment was a challenge in the past with guests not bringing the necessary technology into the waterpark.

"Family vacations are what memories are made of, with photos lining the fronts of refrigerators and pages of albums for years," said Steve Shattuck, Corporate Director of Communications at Great Wolf Resorts.  "Today, our guests use Facebook as both a virtual post card and a photo album. With technology we already had in place, we were able to make sharing one step easier."

Built by Fish Technologies, Great Wolf Connect uses the RFID technology imbedded in the waterpark's wristbands, which also serve as guests' room keys and in-house charge accounts. After check-in, guests can register their wristband at the Great Wolf Connect kiosks and link it directly to their Facebook account. Then, at five Paw Posts located throughout the resort, guests simply scan their wristband and smile for the digital camera at each spot. That photo - or a general photo of each attraction - and a caption are then automatically posted on the guests' Facebook wall.

"Guests have been asking us for photo sharing functionality for quite some time. Great Wolf Connect allows us to expand our technology infrastructure in a way that enhances their stay," said Great Wolf Chief Information Officer Rajiv Castillino. "In Grand Mound, we've already seen our guests embrace this new experience. And as guests see others capturing memories at the Paw Posts, they're trying it out for themselves, too."

The Paw Post locations include the most popular photo opportunities throughout the resort, including the resort's signature Tipping Bucket as well as a full view of the of the waterpark from an elevated balcony inside the waterpark, the Great Clock Tower in the lobby, the statue of Sprinkles the Bear outside Bear Paw Sweets & Eats(TM), and Pixi's Perch, part of the MagiQuest® game.

Payoff.com Transforms Personal Financial Management with First Ever Social Community for Your Finances

In Wake of Great Recession and Continuing Consumer Debt Crisis, Payoff.com Launches Simple, Social, Fun, Personal Finance Site.

LOS ANGELES, June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- With effects of the Great Recession lingering in a personal debt crisis, a home foreclosure crisis and widespread unemployment, today Payoff.com is launching a free social finance site offering consumers a fun and engaging way to pay off their debt, meet their savings goals and fulfill their financial dreams.  With $3.5 million in capital investment led by FirstMark Capital, Payoff.com offers consumers a positive new alternative to view and interact with their finances.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110628/LA27422LOGO)

"Debt steals dreams," said Scott Saunders, CEO and Founder of Payoff.com. "With trillions in consumer debt, a lot of dreams are being lost.  Spreadsheets, pie charts and line-by-line budgets are great for financial analysts but suck for the average American. Payoff.com offers debt ridden consumers a way to get a better handle on the big picture and a clear path to pay off their debt, meet their savings goals and fulfill their financial dreams."

Today in America there is more than $14 trillion in consumer debt including mortgages.  Nearly 25% of Americans have negative equity in their homes and more than 2 million people have negative equity greater than 50 percent or are at least $150,000 "upside down."  More than half of Americans carry unpaid balances on their credit cards that average $16,000 and the average student loan debt for graduating seniors has risen to $24,000.

Payoff.com is "just what American consumers need today: a simple, practical and fun way to manage finances and actually achieve personal financial goals," said Phillip Riese, former President of American Express and a Payoff.com Advisor.

Payoff has built a unique Personal Financial Management and financial account aggregation utility that addresses the unmet needs of a wide cross-section of American consumers compared to competing personal finance websites. Unlike other sites, Payoff.com allows users to share dreams, goals and accomplishments with their friends and garner their support, earn badges and win prizes like a game, and view their historical spending categorized by major merchants like Safeway, Starbucks, Old Navy, Target, and Victoria's Secret.  Payoff.com's Scientific Advisory Board, led by Dr. Galen Buckwalter, Founder and Chief Scientist of eHarmony, is helping translate the most cutting edge findings in neuroeconomics into Payoff's product and pioneering the first definitive approach to help people understand their unique financial personality.

"Payoff is leading a paradigm shift in making personal financial management more approachable to a wider array of people," said Bill Cvengros, Former CEO of PIMCO Advisors and a Payoff.com investor.

Payoff.com has secured funding from an all-star list of angel investors including Betsy Bernard, former President of AT&T, Kai Huang, Founder of Guitar Hero, Jim Nordstrom, former President of Nordstrom, David Solomon, Global Co-Head of Investment Banking at Goldman Sachs, and several other angel investors.

About Payoff

Help has arrived! Payoff.com has turned the drudgery of personal financial management into something simple, social and fun. Payoff helps individuals take control of their financial destinies as a means to achieve goals and fulfill dreams.  Payoff's product allows its users to share dreams, set financial goals like paying off a credit card or saving to start a business, and track their financial picture without pie-charts, spreadsheets or data-entry.  Payoff.com also offers practical tools to help its users  quickly achieve goals and rewards progress with badges and cash prizes to motivate its users.  Payoff was founded in 2009 in Los Angeles, California.  For more information, visit http://www.payoff.com.

New SpineCenterNetwork.com Designed by Prizm Development Provides Back Pain Sufferers a Listing of Regional Spine Centers of Excellence

DALLAS, June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Wouldn't it be convenient if someone created a listing of spine centers of excellence across the United States that all emphasize non-surgical treatment options before surgery? Where the staff included board-certified spine specialists who are fellowship-trained in spine -- the highest level of training available in the United States? Where each center reveals their outcomes on a Clinical Outcome Report? Finally, there is a free online educational resource: SpineCenterNetwork.com.

"The online network is a byproduct of one-on-one meetings with health insurance company medical directors, employers and primary care doctors who were looking for spine programs that emphasized conservative care first," explains Bob Reznik, MBA, president of Prizm Development, Inc. "Dartmouth Medical Atlas has documented tremendous treatment variation in spine care," says Reznik. "Some spine practices emphasize aggressive spine surgery too often. Other clinics can emphasize too many injections. Sadly, too many times the back pain sufferer has to travel to multiple offices for biased opinions, misleading information, fragmented care, conflicting diagnoses and treatment plans -- and often an unnecessary surgery. That is the perceived problem with spine care today."

The Spine Center Network was developed to be useful to:

    --  Health insurance plans and employers who want to identify spine centers
        who conceptually believe in a non-surgically oriented approach to spine
        care, with the use of Physical Medicine MDs and spine therapists, all
        under one roof.
    --  Back and neck pain sufferers who are searching the Internet for places
        to go for relief of symptoms, and are trying to educate themselves as to
        who to pursue for proper treatment.

The common thread weaves all these separate spine centers together is that all are based on a common spine center model that is based on a 3-legged stool concept, here a multidisciplinary team of Physical Medicine physicians, spine surgeons (ortho & neuro) and spine therapists act as the foundation for care. In most cases, these MDs are fellowship-trained, the highest level of medical training available in the U.S.

The second foundation of this spine center model, is the philosophy where -- absent emergency symptoms like loss of bowel/bladder control and weakness in a foot or hand -- non-surgical options need to be explored and exhausted first before spine surgery.

The third common aspect among these spine centers is that they use spine-trained physical therapists who have advanced training and experience in the niche of spine care.

The fourth common aspect is the philosophical commitment by all these spine centers to educate the health care consumer. As a free community service, all these centers mail out -- at their own cost -- a 36-page Home Remedy Book to thousands of back pain sufferers annually. Each spine center also has an on-line spine encyclopedia with exercises, symptom charts and medical illustrations on spine.

The fifth requirement is the willingness to use Prizm's outcome system to publish an annual Clinical Outcome Report Card.

Back or neck pain sufferers who are seeking a physician can request a second opinion from 16 spine centers located across the United States in California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Nevada, North Carolina, South Dakota and Texas. The network will expand to include other regional centers as they meet inclusion criteria. More information can be found at http://www.SpineCenterNetwork.com.

Alcatel-Lucent Innovation Delivers a Faster, Smarter and Greener Network Experience

FP3 Network Processor First to Support 400Gigabits-per-second Data Speeds; no Compromise on Service Quality

PARIS, June 28, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext and NYSE: ALU) today announced a new network
processor that delivers a fourfold increase in performance over the fastest
Internet Protocol (IP) networks available today. By supporting 400
Gigabits-per-second (G) transmission speeds, the FP3 processor opens up new
possibilities for bandwidth-intensive services, applications and content,
while cutting power consumption by up to 50 percent. The FP3 processor is
being demonstrated today and will be commercially available in
Alcatel-Lucent's service router portfolio in 2012.

    The first of a new generation of IP routing technology, the FP3
processor is designed to address tomorrow's demand for ultra-high
performance public and private IP networks. For example, a single FP3
processor could handle 70,000 simultaneous High Definition video streams or
8.4 million simultaneous retail cloud sessions.

    "Alcatel-Lucent brings a wealth of experience and technical skill to the
challenge of putting the next generation of silicon into their service
routers," said Simon Stanley, Founder and Principal Consultant of Earlswood
Marketing Limited. "The same engineers have moved through 10G to 100G and
now to 400G. The result is a chipset which delivers the versatility of a
programmable network processor and a massive increase in speed, without
compromising on deep touch services."

    Alcatel-Lucent is the first company to develop 400G technology for IP
networks, helping to accelerate the adoption of 100 Gigabit Ethernet (GE),
which was standardized in 2010, while providing a clear path for higher
speeds in future. According to a recent forecast by Dell'Oro Group, 100GE
port shipments from 2010 through 2015 are predicted to grow in excess of 200
percent annually.

    Basil Alwan, president of Alcatel-Lucent's IP Division, said: "This
technology puts us a generation ahead of today''s fastest IP core routers.
And, it''s not just moving bits, but generating revenue and creating value
for service providers and their business, residential and mobile customers.
By making networks faster, smarter and more environmentally sustainable,
Alcatel-Lucent is enabling the continuous innovation of consumer and
business devices, content and applications that increasingly depend on
service provider networks."

    "Alcatel-Lucent is showing its technology roots, recently with
lightRadio(TM) for the wireless market and now with the FP3 400G network
processor for IP routing," stated Michael Howard, Co-founder and Principal
Analyst Carrier and Data Center Networks, Infonetics Research. "I'm
impressed that any company could develop such a high capacity network
processor, solving 400G in the electrical domain before the industry solves
400G for lightwaves. This 400G chipset is a generational advance that will
improve router 100GE density/cost and will attract the eye of service
providers."

    Alcatel-Lucent has also taken an industry leadership role by driving an
"ecosystem" of semiconductor partners including Samsung Semiconductor,
NetLogic Microsystems, Micron, GSI Technology, Cypress and Broadcom to
deliver complementary components that support the transition to ultra-fast,
low power networks with deterministic performance.

Independa Launches Angela - Social Engagement and Fun for Remote Care Recipients

Game-changing solution connects caring family members, professionals with the elderly, prolonging independence and enriching Golden Years

SAN DIEGO, June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Independa(TM), Inc. today announced launch of the Angela(TM) personal interaction solution for the independent elderly. Angela is fully integrated with existing Independa services that monitor care recipients' health and well-being.   

This new addition to Independa's integrated telecare suite provides the all-important social engagement that helps the elderly continue living healthy, safe, rewarding lives in their own residences. Knowing their loved ones or patients are thriving also gives remote caregivers peace of mind. 

"Angela is unique, powerful and inviting - truly angel-like," said Independa CEO Kian Saneii. "We see it as the next Wii or iPad for the golden generation. It's especially designed to entertain and engage while being convenient for those who care for the elderly. Imagine being able to see Mom or your patient right away, or engage them through emails, Facebook or even video chat. Now imagine them doing all this plus a whole lot more, like playing games and surfing the Internet, without any prior computer knowledge." 

Independa's new social interaction solution is tailor-made for the non-technical elderly. Running on an off-the-shelf touch-screen tablet, Angela provides an intuitive interface with secure, one-touch access to video chats, email, the Internet, Facebook, games and puzzles, and other interactive content. The preconfigured Angela tablet comes ready to use. Those being cared for do not need to learn to use a general-purpose computer, navigate with a mouse or type on a keypad.

Meticulously designed for aging adults, Angela offers larger screen fonts, higher contrast and brighter colors. Users don't need to worry about repeated software updates, blue screens or virus scans.

"Angela is the latest building block in the integrated suite of solutions Independa is rolling out to help family members and home-care professionals stay in touch with and watch over care recipients when they can't be with them," Saneii said. "Elderly care recipients can use simple, fun tools, and those looking after them need practical solutions that are easy to use and don't require their own care. Angela meets all those needs, and adds essential social elements."

How can Angela enrich an elderly person's life? In a myriad of ways. Mom can have a "video-chat breakfast" with her granddaughter. Dad can finally use email. A patient alone at home can reconnect on Facebook with friends who have moved away and play interactive games. Angela also can remind users to take medications; keep medical and personal appointments; and remember birthdays and anniversaries. 

"At LivHOME, we believe that technology is going to play a key role in providing consistent high-level senior in-home care at an affordable price," said Mike Nicholson, Chief Executive Officer of LivHOME. "We feel that Independa has the best-in-class solution to date. Over the two years we have followed their development of care monitoring, medication reminders and other technology solutions, LivHOME has been excited about the prospect of offering the Independa solution to our established national locations and our growing franchise markets. With the launch of Angela, we are proud to be able to offer it as a component of the LivHOME solution to our thousands of clients across the country."

Angela is an antidote to the critical problem of social isolation and loneliness among the elderly. 

"User-friendly technology solutions that encourage social engagement are essential in preserving independence for older adults," said Dr. Richard Della Penna, Chief Medical Officer of Independa. "While often overlooked, isolation is the Number One issue for the elderly, as it commonly triggers depression and physical illnesses, which can hasten the move to less-independent living and shorten life."   

Laurie Orlov, founder of the market research firm Aging in Place Technology Watch, commented: "Traditional telehealth boxes and computers are last-decade clumsy approaches to helping older adults, providers, and caregivers. Twenty-first century solutions will look more like the integrated engagement and wellness platforms of new firms like Independa and its 'Angela.'"

The Independa Angela solution builds and enhances upon Independa's Smart Reminders(TM). Launched in January, Smart Reminders uses patent-pending technology to enable caregivers to set up automatic reminders for care receivers to take their medications, keep medical and social appointments, and record "Life Stories." Angela adds visual notifications to existing telephone alerts as options for receiving reminders, as well as confirmation to a family member or professional caregiver that a reminder was acknowledged and confirmed, closing an important daily communication loop for medication compliance.

Angela will be available for beta testing July 1 and generally available in September. After the beta period, the software will be available for monthly subscription, with tablet pricing to be determined. Care recipients will only need Internet access to their homes to stay connected to the service. 

Plans call for an option of a 10-inch or 22-inch tablet screen with the commercial offer and a 10-inch screen for the beta phase.
