quadrantONE Partners with Admeld to Launch Q-Exchange, the First Private Ad Exchange Focused on Premium Local Audiences

Joint Venture of Tribune, Gannett, Hearst, and the New York Times Company Makes Premium, Local Inventory Available To Buyers via Real Time Bidding

NEW YORK, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- quadrantONE, a joint venture of four major media companies (Tribune Company, Gannett Co., Inc., Hearst Corporation and The New York Times Company) today announced the launch of Q-Exchange, the first private ad exchange focused on premium local audiences. The exchange, which is powered by technology from Admeld, enables quadrantONE to safely and transparently monetize their inventory through Real Time Bidding (RTB).

"As marketers increasingly look to technologies like RTB to buy audiences, it's critical for publishers to embrace technologies that help them meet this need," said Mario Diez, CEO of quadrantONE. "We chose Admeld to power Q-Exchange because their private exchange technology provides maximum control, transparency, and versatility."

"quadrantONE and their owner-partners are among the best in the world at aggregating and monetizing premium local audiences," said Michael Barrett, CEO, Admeld. "Q-Exchange enables them to do this even more efficiently, to capture new revenue streams, and continue to stay ahead of the digital advertising curve. We're pleased to partner with them on this initiative."

"Several studies reflect that the vast majority of users are more likely to engage with ads that are relevant to their location," said Greg Sterling, Senior Analyst, Opus Research. "This and other evidence indicate that local display advertising is a major opportunity that has yet to be realized."

Admeld introduced the industry's first private exchange in November 2010 with the launch of The Weather Channel's 'Category 5' platform.  In January 2010, the company collaborated with The IDG TechNetwork on launching TMX, the first private exchange for the technology vertical.

Q-Exchange is part of Q, a fully-branded, private audience platform and exchange announced today by quadrantONE.  Read about it in Ad Age. See quadrantONE's press release.

It is no surprise that the Nintendo 3DS is selling very, very well in Japan. It is sold out, period. Stock comes in, it sells out.

Quote

According to the reports, 400,000 Nintendo 3DS units were sold since the device's launch on Saturday. A sell-out was expected. Most retail outlets in Japan had their preorders sold out prior to the launch of the portable-gaming device and were already taking orders for the next shipment.

The Nintendo 3DS will be one of the more interesting launches this year, thanks to its unique feature-set. The platform, which went on sale in Japan for 25,000 yen (about $300), allows gamers to play 3D titles without the need for special glasses. It comes with two screens and boasts an accelerometer and gyroscope to give developers a few more options for their video games.

In Japan, 400,000 units sold is just the beginning for Nintendo. The company said last year that it expects to sell 1.5 million 3DS units in Japan alone by the end of March. The European launch is set for March 25. The U.S. launch is scheduled for March 27 with a $249 price tag for the device.

TopSchool SLM 3.0 Takes Open Architecture SaaS to the Next Level

2011 Advancements Include Modules, Dashboards and Mobile Applications

DENVER, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- TopSchool, a leading SaaS provider of Student Lifecycle Management (SLM) solutions for higher education, has launched TopSchool SLM 3.0, advancing its open architecture platform, increasing scalability to meet customer growth requirements, and delivering the highest level of performance.

"We spent the greater part of 2010 rewriting a significant percentage of our code base in order to create the platform for the future, delivering open architecture Software as a Service functionality, innovation and scalability," said Matthew Schnittman, CEO and Co-Founder of TopSchool.  "The demand from larger institutions warranted this investment in our platform - the release of TopSchool SLM 3.0, coupled with the advancements we are adding this year, better aligns our system with our clients' growth goals and secures our competitive advantage."

The system overhaul kicked off last January with the release of TopX(TM), a robust set of Web services that allow schools to quickly create real-time integrations across educational systems.  TopSchool SLM 3.0 also integrates with EdExpress, and it includes a simpler UI, flexible term structures and an integrated, customizable online application. As of the winter release, all clients are currently benefiting from the TopSchool SLM 3.0 version.

This new infrastructure will allow TopSchool to continue to offer advanced features and user support.  In 2011, TopSchool's updated system will offer colleges and universities:

    --  Student Lifecycle Modules: If a college's or university's needs don't
        require the complete student  lifecycle management system, the flexible
        design of the TopSchool system will allow them to take advantage of
        singular modules, such as CRM or Placement.
    --  Dashboards:  The TopView(TM) Reporting & Analytics suite will be offered
        along with all modules and will include dashboard views of prospect and
        student data. TopSchool will initially launch an Executive Dashboard to

With Hundreds of Ohio Workers Targeted by Gov. John Kasich's Budget Cuts, Buckeyes Are Getting Angry!

"Angry Buckeyes" Shows How "King Kasich's" Budget Hammers Nurses, Police, Fire Fighters; First Political Parody Based on "Angry Birds" Mobile App

**First US Angry Birds Political Parody: http://angrybuckeyes.com**

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Gov. John Kasich's (R-Ohio) is meeting fierce opposition online, where "Angry Buckeyes" are taking on the governor for his attacks on working nurses, firefighters, cops and other hardworking Ohioans. "Angry Buckeyes," the first U.S. multimedia political parody inspired by the popular mobile game, "Angry Birds," was produced by America Votes Ohio.

The multimedia "Angry Buckeyes" campaign has people in Ohio signing up to fight back against Gov. Kasich's cuts. The effort lives on the microsite http://angrybuckeyes.com, complete with Facebook, Twitter, text message and email components. The video parody has slingshots to save nurses, police officers and fire fighters from "King Kasich" by firing angry Buckeyes within various structures, with the intent of saving public employees on the playing field.

"The survival of Ohio's middle class families is at stake!" says the video. "It's up to you to take action and fight back!"

"People are talking about the attack on nurses and fire fighters in Gov. Kasich's budget, and it's being met with outrage," said Khaled Salehi of America Votes Ohio. "We can't afford to have Gov. Kasich playing games with the lives of everyday working people on the front lines in the Buckeye State."

Angry Buckeyes is an attempt to simply explain the kind of treatment folks from public sector unions are receiving from the governor of Ohio.  If Gov. Kasich gets his way, the livelihood of nearly one million hard working Ohioans will be at stake.

**NOTE: Media representatives interested in the multimedia components of the political parody should visit http://www.angrybuckeyes.com.**

UAT Launches iPerX to Enhance Commission Recapture Programs

Patented iPerX Automates Trading Process and Increases Recapture Rates to 75%

DENVER, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- UAT Inc., a financial services technology firm specializing in the externally managed and sub-advised industry, is pleased to announce the launch of iPerX, a breakthrough web-based system that automates trading and potentially triples recapture rates for sub-advised and externally managed assets.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110228/NY55145LOGO )

"Compared to existing commission recapture products, iPerX is a web-based offering that automatically generates lower commission costs on up to 75% of orders for an account, dramatically increasing savings for a fund or plan," said Tom Warren, UAT's President. "Money managers overseeing these assets increase the efficiency of their trading desk as they gain an automated algorithm that saves their institutional clients millions annually for the benefit of the underlying individuals in these products. iPerX is also the only product on the market that provides real-time governance reporting on holdings, activity, commission and recapture rates for sub-advised and externally managed assets."

The multi-patented iPerX product increases recapture rates for up to 75% of an account's order flow, which is triple the current 25% industry norm. iPerX provides an algorithm to money managers that, through a single screen, enables the automation of a fund or plan's recapture goals. This algorithm categorizes orders, using a real-time rules-based process, as high touch or low touch based on their potential market impact. The low-touch orders, typically up to 75% of an account's order flow, are auto-routed to a fund or plan's designated low-cost agency brokers to maximize commission savings. The money manager's trading desk "works" the high-touch orders to provide true value-added service on orders with significant expected market impact.

"At its most basic level for money managers, iPerX increases the efficiency of their trading desk. The money managers retain complete control over all order management and trading as well as the iPerX algorithm's rules for determining market impact," Mr. Warren said. "At a time when many money manager trading desks are facing staff reductions, iPerX's automation is a valuable asset."

As a web-based solution, iPerX requires no additional personnel or supervisory resources to run and has no installation costs or minimum requirements. iPerX is also available for licensing to current providers of commission recapture programs, with the added benefit of substantially increased revenues and enhanced services for these providers.

"Our cause at UAT is to save the sub-advised and externally managed industry $1 billion per year. iPerX is a 21st century solution that automatically lowers commissions, improves performance and provides real-time transparency across the entire sub-advised and externally managed industry. We are looking at all possible avenues to achieve these goals," Mr. Warren said.

UAT is also the creator of the UAT System, a first-of-its-kind solution to the decades-old inefficiencies in the $3.5 trillion externally managed and sub-advised market. Both technologies benefit numerous organizations, including public and private defined benefit plans, defined contribution plans, mutual funds, not-for-profit funds, variable insurance products, bank trust groups, endowments and foundations. UAT holds four United States patents with additional patents pending and patent filings in 38 countries.

Staten Island Man Now Safe at Home Thanks to EmSeeQ® Locator Device

67-Year-Old Alzheimer's Patient Quickly Recovered by NYPD after Wandering More than a Mile from Home in Near-Freezing Temperatures

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y., Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --  A 67-year-old man with Alzheimer's disease is now safely back at home with his wife after wandering outside in near-freezing temperatures thanks to the quick action of the New York Police Department and a watch-like EmSeeQ®( )wearable locator device.

Robert Campbell was recovered within an hour after his wife, Marilyn, discovered him missing. He was located on Victory Boulevard, more than a mile from his home. Temperatures at the time were in the mid-30s and Mr. Campbell was wearing only jeans, a sweater and a cap, along with the EmSeeQ locator bracelet. The wristwatch-style device uses the nationwide U-TDOA cellular technology to accurately and rapidly determine the location of the device wearer, enabling rescuers to find him or her quickly and reduce the risk of grave injury or even death should the individual become lost or intentionally elope.

Mrs. Campbell called for activation of the device around 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 15. Officers of the 122 Precinct were dispatched to the location provided by the EmSeeQ device and returned Mr. Campbell home safely to his wife.

"The EmSeeQ device did exactly what it's supposed to--help us find and return my husband safe and sound. He was definitely not dressed appropriately to be out in this kind of weather," Mrs. Campbell said. "It's such a relief to know this technology is there when we need it and it works so quickly."

Mr. Campbell had wandered away in the past, which prompted Mrs. Campbell to purchase the EmSeeQ technology. Wandering is a common symptom of Alzheimer's disease that causes endless worry for families and caregivers. When an impaired individual wanders or becomes lost, especially during the winter months or other times of inclement weather, each minute that passes is critical. Those who wander can quickly fall victim to the elements or hazards they encounter on their journey and the results can be tragic.

The EmSeeQ emergency locator system by EmFinders provides an added layer of peace of mind and security, in addition to other measures often employed by caregivers to keep their loved ones safe and sound. Once activated, the device works by placing a call to 9-1-1, which provides its location to dispatchers who can then send assistance, as they do every day for thousands of wireless 911 calls per month.

The EmSeeQ cellular technology enables rescue personnel to locate the wearer quickly and accurately, and without the risk of interference from weather or structures common with GPS technology. With EmSeeQ to aid the rescue efforts, dispatchers can identify the whereabouts of the individual and deploy personnel to make the rescue in much less time, and at much less expense, than it would normally take to activate a search-and-rescue.

The wristwatch-style EmSeeQ device is discrete, yet secure, providing much-needed and affordable peace of mind to caregivers of seniors suffering from Alzheimer's disease or dementia, and even children with autism who are prone to running away. The EmSeeQ bracelet is available in two different styles: a watchband-type device with a traditional buckle, and a clasp-style that requires two hands to remove for added security.

For more information about the EmSeeQ device, visit http://www.emfinders.com.

About EmFinders

EmFinders, based in Frisco, TX, is a new technology company that has developed a device and subscription service for locating people with Alzheimer's or other impaired adults and children who wander and become lost. The wearable device and locator service uses advanced cellular technology to locate lost individuals, even if they wander inside a building, under a structure or just about anywhere. The device becomes activated on remote command and the locator service works in coordination with emergency responders. EmFinders is a privately held subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation attributed to the Liberty Capital group (NASDAQ: LCAPA), which owns a broad range of electronic retailing, media, communications and entertainment businesses.

MDC PARTNERS ANNOUNCES NEW NOT-FOR-PROFIT INSTITUTE AS MILLION DOLLAR CHALLENGE WINNER

New Digital Works Institute, Focusing on Digital Arts and Sciences
Education, Will be Directed by Industry Veteran and Visionary Kip
Voytek.

NEW YORK, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ - MDC Partners (http://www.mdc-partners.com) announced today that they have created a national non-profit institute
focused on digital arts and sciences education.  The Digital Works
Institute will be run by industry visionary Kip Voytek, who won the
Million Dollar Challenge based on his proposal to expand digital arts
and education. Headquartered in New York, the Digital Works Institute
will offer multi-disciplinary, project-based, learning programs
designed to provide the skills needed by future digital leaders and
entrepreneurs.

The Digital Works Institute comes about as a result of the Million
Dollar Challenge, an initiative proposed last June at the Cannes
International Advertising Festival during a presentation given by Chuck
Porter, Chief Strategist, MDC Partners, and Chairman, Crispin Porter +
Bogusky, and Miles Nadal, Chairman and CEO, MDC Partners. The intent of
the challenge was to discover innovative and entrepreneurial thinkers
with groundbreaking ideas, and partner with them to bring their vision
to reality.

The Digital Works Institute will build upon the success of Boulder
Digital Works, a learning program founded jointly by the University of
Colorado and CP+B, and initially funded by MDC Partners. Kip Voytek,
who has served as an advisor to BDW since it's inception, had a vision
to build upon the core philosophies of BDW on a much broader and
comprehensive scale by creating a non-profit national institute. He
leaves his role as SVP, Communications Planning, at award winning
digital agency Rapp, to take on this new endeavor. In his last
position, he was responsible for developing and managing the overall
branding of the agency, all communication planning, and digital thought
leadership and strategy. Prior to Rapp, he spent nine years as a
creative director and designer of websites, PC / web games, CD-ROMS,
and kiosks, and five years as a designer and developer of information
systems for small and medium size businesses.  

"Perhaps the biggest challenge our industry is facing today is the huge
dearth of digital talent and future leaders. The most effective digital
leaders are collaborative with a broad base of skills, which is hard to
find and even harder to cultivate.  Traditional curriculum doesn't
address this, which was one of the key motivators in the development of
BDW. The learning model is adaptive, integrated and practical, and it
covers the spectrum of digital disciplines and media.  First year
graduates had a 100% placement rate with students getting jobs at
Wieden + Kennedy, Saatchi & Saatchi, CP+B, and Comcast among others.
The Digital Works Institute will take these learnings, and couple them
with the expertise and teachings of the most innovative thinkers,
scientists, and scholars in a wide array of technological and academic
arenas. I am very grateful to MDC Partners to have this incredible
opportunity to bring my vision to life," said Kip Voytek.

"The vision of The Digital Works Institute is to be a powerful resource
for learning and innovation," said Chuck Porter.  "Our expectation was
that the Million Dollar Challenge would go to a new business start up,
but this not-for-profit initiative was the most compelling idea we saw.
Hopefully, it will help to enlarge the pool of digital talent and
enhance the quality of digital innovation across a broad array of
businesses. It's not really a business investment for MDC, it's more of
an investment in the future of the industry."

About MDC Partners Inc.

MDC is a Business Transformation Organization that utilizes technology,
marketing communications, data analytics, insights and strategic
consulting solutions to drive meaningful returns on Marketing and
Communications Investments for multinational clients in the United
States, Canada, Europe, and the Caribbean.

Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders to Drive Business Success to new levels
of Achievement, for both our Clients and our Shareholders, reinforcing

When Web Applications Collide With Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA)

SEATTLE, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- WatchGuard Technologies

Highlights / News Facts:

    --  CIPA - an overview: According to the FCC, the Children's Internet
        Protection Act (CIPA) is a federal law enacted in 2000 by Congress to
        address concerns about access to offensive content over the Internet on
        school and library computers.  CIPA imposes certain types of
        requirements on any school or library that receives funding for Internet
        access or internal connections from the E-rate program - a program that
        makes certain communications technology more affordable for eligible
        schools and libraries.
    --  CIPA and Firewalls: The most common CIPA solution for schools and
        libraries rested in a firewall appliance that could perform a variety of
        security tasks.  This included web blocking, content filtering, as well
        as advanced monitoring and reporting tools for quick remediation and
        forensics.  Until now, this was very effective.
    --  Compliance at Risk: Traditional firewalls are unable to distinguish a
        web site from a web application, which means web blocking and content
        filtering alone will not stop harmful web applications.  With the
        explosion of new web applications and rich social media capabilities
        that can by-pass web filters, new vectors of obscene material, offensive
        content and potentially dangerous payloads hiding malware, spyware,
        etc., are putting school and library networks at risk, and furthermore,
        jeopardizing CIPA compliance.
    --  Application Control: To combat these new threat vectors, WatchGuard
        recommends that schools and libraries upgrade their firewalls to CIPA
        compliant solutions that include Application Control.  Application
        Control, unlike web filters, provides granular control over the latest
        web applications.  Benefits of Application Control include:
        --  Ability to control thousands of applications, including
            sub-applications such as IM, peer-to-peer file sharing, etc.  This
            allows schools and libraries to allow students to use popular social
            media applications without risking CIPA compliance;
        --  Real-time monitoring gives administrators immediate ability to
            exercise authority and/or immediately restrict access;
        --  Block anonymizers and web-proxy by-pass applications so that
            students are unable to sneak around firewall and security policies.

Keywords:

CIPA, Children's Internet Protection Act, School Security, Library Policies, Application Control

Quotes:

"Schools and libraries simply cannot rely on outdated technology to keep ahead of the latest web application or hot social media outlet," said Tim Helming, Director of Product Management at WatchGuard.  "Only with Application Control can schools and libraries truly manage and control these next generation threat vectors.  Any school or library that needs to maintain CIPA compliance needs to include Application Control as part of their defense-in-depth strategy."

Global Crossing Launches its First Phase of Network Centric Cloud Based Solutions

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Drawing on its extensive expertise in global IP networking and collaboration services, Global Crossing (Nasdaq: GLBC) today introduced Global Crossing® Communications as a Service (CaaS), the first phase of its network-centric, cloud-based solution set.  CaaS provides an innovative, on-demand, "pay-as-you-grow" set of capabilities that simplify a business's audio conferencing experience from multiple services to a single-service, cloud-based model.   

CaaS is designed to deliver easy-to-use, integrated, customized communications options to an enterprise.  It creates a network-centric platform that combines the company's Global Crossing IP Virtual Private Network (IP VPN), Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) Trunking, and Global Crossing Ready Access® hosted audio conferencing services to provide a tailor-made collaboration experience.  Among other features, these combined capabilities support the functionality of Global Crossing Connect Mobile, which uses a standard application programming interface (API) to give end users the ability to join or host an audio conference from popular mobile devices by clicking on an icon.  This mobile application also syncs meetings with users' calendars.

"Global Crossing CaaS is integral to our global cloud solution strategy," said Anthony Christie, chief technology and information officer for Global Crossing.  "It is a logical extension of our competency in IP networking and collaboration, and addresses the needs of today's businesses that want to take advantage of network-centric cloud services, while reaping the benefits of a higher quality experience and more simplistic per-seat pricing model.  In subsequent releases we'll enhance CaaS to include video, telephony and IT services, including Instant Messaging, presence and email."

In addition to a higher quality experience enabled by the "on net" nature of the service, another attractive element of CaaS is that Global Crossing offers this service in a shared-seat billing model via a monthly fee.  This provides customers more simple and predictable billing versus per-minute pricing.  For the monthly shared-seat fee, users receive access to unlimited global audio conferencing minutes.  Shared-seat billing also lowers communications costs, increases overall communications efficiency and reduces the need to travel, resulting in smaller corporate carbon footprints.

Global Crossing is developing additional cloud solutions that will include virtual compute, storage and infrastructure capabilities, as well as a security offer that provides dynamic firewall, intrusion detection and email filtering.  Future additions to the family of solutions will include a hosted application development environment and hosted software applications to support strategic opportunities.  All of Global Crossing's cloud solutions leverage its global IP network for superior quality of service.

CaaS also is integrated into Global Crossing's award-winning uCommand® customer portal to provide seat-based utilization reporting to customers.  uCommand is Global Crossing's online account management tool that gives customers access to network management and services, real-time performance monitoring and network management capabilities. 

"The acceleration of cloud computing and new business models enable enterprises to achieve productivity improvements and greater cost efficiencies via advanced telecommunication service options," stated Dan O'Connell, Research Director at Gartner.  "Today's cloud-based applications are both flexibly priced and capable of being integrated into business processes to yield substantial benefit to enterprises."

Global Crossing already has proven the cost-savings value of CaaS through its own internal implementation of the solution set.  By implementing CaaS in each of its locations around the world, the company's annual telecommunications spend has decreased 30 percent.

Chelsio Delivers New Family of 10G Ethernet Unified Wire Adapters for Cloud, Data Center, Storage, HPC

Chelsio T4 Is Industry's First Converged Network Adapter - Enabling TCP, UDP, iSCSI, iWARP, and FCoE Offload Over Single Unified Wire With SR-IOV, EVB/VNTag, DCB

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --Chelsio Communications, a leading provider of 10Gb Ethernet Unified Wire adapters and ASICs, today announced availability of its fourth generation Terminator 4 technology in the first release of a new family of 10Gb Ethernet adapter cards.  The T4 cards are the industry's first Ethernet converged network adapters capable of simultaneously offloading all the major networking and storage protocols (TCP, UDP, iWARP, iSCSI, and FCoE) with Single Root IO Virtualization (SR-IOV).

Ideal for all data, storage and high performance clustering applications, the T4 enables a unified fabric over a single wire by simultaneously running all unmodified IP sockets, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand applications over Ethernet at line rate.  Designed for deployment in virtualized data centers, cloud service installations and high performance computing environments, these Chelsio adapters bring a new level of performance metrics and functional capabilities to the networking space.

"Chelsio's T4 technology is a feature rich solution, delivering outstanding performance while supporting a wide range of protocols," said Bill Mannel, vice president of product marketing for SGI.  "The massive growth in cloud services, HPC and data centers is driving the need to maximize equipment densities and minimize power consumption, and Chelsio's T4 adapters are well suited to deliver on the increasing demand for network convergence."

Chelsio is announcing seven new adapters based on the T4 ASIC, and additional cards will be rolled out next quarter.  All the new adapters announced today have SR-IOV-enabled PCIe x8 Gen2 host interfaces, and are capable of fully offloading TCP, UDP, iWARP, iSCSI, and FCoE, with EVB/VEPA/VNTag (802.1Qbg, 802.1Qbh) and DCB support.  In addition, all the adapters include unique hardware features, such fine granularity time stamping, tracing, filtering, and traffic management (pacing and rate shaping).  Power consumption ranges from 9-14W.   The cards can operate concurrently in full offload as well as in stateless fashion.

The seven new adapters are:

    --  T420-CR.  2x10Gb Ethernet, low profile, 32K offloaded connections,  SFP+
        connector
    --  T440-CR.  4x10Gb Ethernet, half size, 32K offloaded connections, SFP+
        connector
    --  T420-BCH.  2x10Gb Ethernet daughter card for IBM BladeCenter H, 32K
        offloaded connections
    --  T420-SO-CR.  2x10Gb Ethernet, low profile, 128 offloaded connections,
        SFP+ connector
    --  T420-CX.  2x10Gb Ethernet low profile, 32K offloaded connections, CX4
        connector
    --  T422-CR.  2x1Gb and 2x10Gb Ethernet, low profile, 32K offloaded
        connections, SFP+ and RJ45 connectors
    --  T404-BT.  4x1Gb Ethernet, low profile, 32K offloaded connections, RJ-45
        connector

Targeted at Virtualized Clouds, Data Centers, Storage and HPC Applications

Virtualization is driving large increases in server utilization, which means fewer CPU cycles are available for I/O processing.   Along with the extensive offload capabilities of the T4, the embedded switch enables further performance advantages for virtualized environments, switching traffic from up to 140 virtual and physical ports within the T4 adapter.  The T4 supports PCIe SR-IOV (8 Physical Functions, 128 Virtual Functions) with advanced QoS and traffic management functionality, enabling state-of-the-art virtualization design.

The T4 adapters are an ideal solution for cloud installations.  In addition to a feature-rich virtualized card, enabling immediate re-tasking of any installation to any application or workload, the T4 adapters also provide a very high IOPs and messaging rate.  This makes the solution especially suited for Web 2.0 and other applications where a stateless adapter with a very high packet and connection setup and teardown rate is required.

Broadening its support for block storage, Chelsio's T4 adds both partial and full offload of the FCoE protocol as well as full iSCSI offload.  In support of FCoE traffic, the T4 adds the Data Center Bridging (DCB) protocol.  The T4 cards enable a new unified storage interface that allows a single, simple SCSI command interface to the host driver, with a unified management interface.  By simultaneously offloading TCP/IP, iSCSI and FCoE, the T4 enables unified NAS/SAN systems that adapt to and grow with end-customer needs.

For HPC cluster applications, T4 reduces RDMA verbs latency from about seven microseconds in the T3 to about three microseconds, providing similar application performance as InfiniBand at a much lower cost.  Chelsio has also added UDP-offload features to T4, delivering three microsecond application-to-application latency for UDP packets.

The massive new silicon features of T4 enable a slew of middleware possibilities.  Chelsio will initially be introducing a UDP-sockets middleware for low latency applications, followed by several other middleware options later this year.  The feature set also allows customization for adding customer-specific value.

"Our T4 adapters are unmatched in the industry.  They are the most complete Converged Network Adapters and are ideally suited for cloud applications where a multi-purpose adapter is a requirement.  Our customers understand that implementation of a successful iSCSI or iWARP protocol requires a reliable, tested TCP engine and here Chelsio stands alone.  A T4-based solution will future-proof any storage or server platform design, providing maximum interoperability, performance and choice of middleware," said Kianoosh Naghshineh, president and CEO.  "Meanwhile, our T3 adapters have been one of the most successful Ethernet solutions in the last four years.  We anticipate ongoing success with the T3 and plan to continue the production of these products for many more years."

Pricing and Availability

All seven adapters are sampling now and will be in volume production this quarter.  US list pricing for the cards begins at $579.

eXo Opens Up Social Web for SMBs with New Software Subscription

For a flat, per-user fee, SMBs and small project teams can start building social intranets and websites with eXo Platform 3.0

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- eXo, a provider of Java user experience and portal technologies, today introduced a new software subscription designed to get small and midsized businesses (SMBs) started using eXo Platform 3.0 to quickly build social intranets and websites, complete with social capabilities such as activity streams, questions and forums. The SMB Subscription includes professional support, documentation and a guaranteed service level agreements (SLA) -- the same type of support expected of enterprise software but at a much more SMB-friendly, per-user price.

News Highlights

    --  In 2011, enterprise social software revenue is expected to increase by
        about 15 percent, a similar growth rate to last year. Most enterprises
        are investing in a mix of social software from multiple vendors that
        often requires time-consuming and costly integration. For SMBs, this
        extra integration step is a dealbreaker.
    --  eXo Platform 3.0 is an integrated user experience platform for creating
        websites and applications with rich features such as collaboration,
        social and knowledge sharing. It is built on the GateIn portal framework
        co-developed by eXo and Red Hat, and offers enterprise features such as
        access control, single-sign on (SSO) for security and LDAP integration
        -- but all at an affordable, per-user price with the new SMB
        Subscription.
    --  While designed initially to meet the surge in interest from SMBs in eXo
        Platform 3.0, the new subscription can also be used by smaller teams
        within large enterprises. Traditional per server/core licensing for
        software has been a challenge for SMBs, whose IT budgets are much more
        limited not only in actual dollars but in IT support. Small project
        teams, on the other hand, typically have to go through many internal
        channels for approval on any software acquisition.
    --  SMB Subscriptions require a minimum of 20 users to start, and provide
        access to eXo Platform 3.0 in an Apache Tomcat package. Clustering is
        not included. For as little as $14/user/month charged in a flat annual
        fee, SMBs can get started immediately.

Supporting Quote

    --  Benjamin Mestrallet, CEO of eXo: "While a best-of-breed approach to
        social software may be appealing to larger companies with the IT budget
        and know-how, an integrated offering greatly simplifies deployment for
        smaller projects. For this key reason, we've had overwhelming interest
        from SMBs in using eXo Platform 3.0, which offers website building,
        content management and social networking features in one. We're proud to
        be able to meet the needs of SMBs without sacrificing on capabilities."

Recoil Games and Sony Online Entertainment Unveil Details for Rochard, a Gravity-Bending Puzzle Platformer for PlayStation®Network

HELSINKI and SAN DIEGO, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Recoil Games and Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) today unveiled new details about Rochard, the action packed side-scrolling puzzle platformercoming soon to the PlayStation®Network. Rochard, scheduled for release this spring, is all about the heroic space adventures of astro-miner John Rochard as he manipulates gravity in inventive ways to solve puzzles, defeat enemies and bring down the most evil of bosses.

Developed by Recoil Games, Rochard is a fun and original space adventure game that features a resourceful hero, ominous villains, rugged machinery, big explosions, even bigger stunts and sharp one-liners. The game tests players' coordination and wits as they use gravity to their advantage, changing it at will to solve environmental puzzles and advance through each level. By using the upgradable G-Lifter, the main tool of the game, players can lift and maneuver heavy objects around the environment, and can eventually swing, jump and propel themselves huge distances throughout each level.

"We have been working on Rochard for some time now and we're very excited to start showing this clever, funny, unique adventure title to PlayStation Network gamers," said Burt Kane, Creative Director at Recoil Games Ltd. "The hero, John Rochard, is no marine or super soldier, but just a tough, ordinary miner with a mustache, placed in an extraordinary situation.  The combination of its humorous style, explorative space antics and the player's ability to manipulate gravity will really make Rochard stand out."

"As a leading publisher for independent titles on the PlayStation Network, we are extremely pleased with our partnership with Recoil and the upcoming release of Rochard continuing our string of successful platform exclusives," said Louis Figueroa, VP Business Development.  "With a unique storyline and style, Rochard will assuredly push the envelope of new and original titles on the PlayStation Network." 

Rochard follows the story of the humble astro-miner John Rochard. John and his mining team accidently discover an ancient structure hidden deep in an asteroid, thus proving mankind isn't alone in the universe. Soon after, his team goes missing without a trace and John finds himself stranded on the asteroid. To make matters worse, space pirates attack the mine, and John quickly realizes there are surprising and dangerous forces at work, determined to use the mysterious discovery for their own sinister means and eliminate John and his friends along the way. Using only his wits, everyday mining tools and a healthy dose of sarcasm, John must fend off the pirates, save his team and solve the mystery behind his discovery.

Rochard is slated for release this spring on the PlayStation Network. For more information, please visit http://www.rochardthegame.com.

AboutOne Launches Secure Online Family Management System at DEMO Spring 2011

Cloud-based service makes it easier for families to manage daily life, as it happens

PALM DESERT, Calif. and MALVERN, Pa., Feb. 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ -- (DEMO Spring 2011) -- AboutOne, a secure online family management system that makes it easier for families to manage daily life, launched publicly today at DEMO, the world-renowned launch platform for some of the most notable emerging technologies introduced over the past two decades. AboutOne provides a centralized location for moms and other family members to quickly and easily store and manage beloved family memories and vital household information, which they can then access anywhere, anytime--at home or away, from any web-enabled device.

"AboutOne was created out of my direct experiences as a mother of four children," says Joanne Lang, CEO at AboutOne. "I had several personal experiences in which I needed immediate access to our critical household information, but after trying a number of tools on the market, I found that none adequately provided the assistance I needed in managing the daily details of home and work life from home or on the road. I finally decided to develop AboutOne in order to make it easier for busy moms like myself to manage family life, no matter where they are."

After a successful beta launch in October 2010, AboutOne has nearly 4,000 users already on board. AboutOne is much more than a digital filing cabinet that fits in a pocket-- it makes your information work for you and serves as an organizational GPS, guiding you along the path to organization. It carries the burden of saving essential family information and making it easily accessible while on-the-go for 82.8 million busy moms in the US (according to a 2008 Census Bureau study).

Why Choose AboutOne

Generally, people dislike household organizational tasks such as record keeping and filing because they are both inconvenient and time-consuming. However, most families do feel it is important to preserve family memories and have instant access to essential household information in case of an emergency.

AboutOne provides a number of advantages over other information management solutions. It's truly the first-of-its-kind application that eliminates the need for storing valuable household information and family memories across multiple digital or paper-based systems. AboutOne brings together automatic software upgrades/updates, fast and convenient data entry, proactive instructions on being organized, and sharing/reporting of both household and career information in a way that is easy and efficient. Specifically:

    --  Automatic software upgrades. AboutOne users don't have to worry about
        software upgrades--all software upgrades are handled without
        interruption by our staff.
    --  Automatic updating. In comparison with similar applications, AboutOne is
        not dependent on hardware or an operating system. As a web-based
        application that follows current HTML W3C standards, AboutOne can run on
        any operating system with a browser.
    --  Personalized advice and help. The bottom line--AboutOne helps people
        know what information they should be keeping, without requiring it. Our
        application assists and guides users in both creating and managing their
        information. With our unique Intelligence Engine, we're able to support
        decision-making by providing links, supporting information, and
        resources at the time when a user needs it most.
    --  A new perspective on household information. AboutOne stores information
        across all areas of a customer's personal and professional life, thereby
        making it easy to compile and use on a daily basis. AboutOne's system is
        designed to make intelligent use of household information, so the
        customer only has to enter it once. AboutOne is unique in the way it
        lets the customer use the information after it has been entered. Users
        can output information in prebuilt reports on many different aspects of
        household management, giving the customer a new perspective on the
        information.

What customers are saying about AboutOne

Mandi, mom and organization specialist

"There are plenty of remote backup sites that allow you to store files and documents," said Mandi Ehman, founder & editor of Organizing Your Way website, an organization specialist and mother of four. "But what really sets AboutOne apart is the way it helps you organize your data, documents and family memories so that everything you need is at your fingertips, allowing you to reduce the amount of paper clutter in your home."

Lisa, mom and attorney

"What a time saver (and stress reducer) this has been and I am amazed at how quickly I have brought our family records up to date," says Lisa, mother of two and an attorney. "I am just so excited about this service. I can't imagine every parent wouldn't want to have all their vital information at their fingertips (literally). I am looking forward to all the new features so I can organize the rest of my life!"

Krystel, military wife

"Moving with the military constantly can make things hectic and information can get misplaced a lot," says Krystel, a military wife and AboutOne user. "Using AboutOne makes things easier by allowing me to have one click access to important information and documents that I might not otherwise have access to right away when arriving at my new home."

About AboutOne

AboutOne is a secure online family management system that makes it easier for families to manage daily life by providing a centralized location in which to quickly and easily store and manage beloved family memories and vital household information. Family members are able to access this information anywhere, anytime--at home or away, from any web-enabled device. With its time-saving features like APIs and wizards, AboutOne makes it possible to quickly enter information with a phone, a scanner, or computer, within the regular flow of the day.

Sensis Adds Integrated Chat Functionality to Aerobahn's Collaborative Decision Making Platform

Industry-leading Airport Surface Management System Now Provides Mechanism to Foster Real-time Stakeholder-to-Stakeholder Communications and CDM

EAST SYRACUSE, N.Y., Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Sensis Corporation today announced the availability of an integrated chat function in its Aerobahn® Airport Surface Management System. Aerobahn's chat function supports private one-to-one communications as well as broadcast messaging to all Aerobahn users. With Aerobahn's new multi-group chat functionality, users from disparate airport organizations, including airlines, airport owner/operators, gate operators and air navigation service providers (ANSP), now have an efficient and integrated tool for immediate communications in support of Collaborative Decision Making (CDM).

"By definition, CDM requires specific and timely communication between stakeholders.  The addition of peer-to-peer and group discussion capabilities within Aerobahn allows users to more efficiently communicate and conduct operations," said Ken Kaminski, vice president and general manager of Sensis Air Traffic Systems. "The chat function builds on Aerobahn's other features, such as dynamic rules alerting and predictive capabilities, to further its position as the industry's most advanced and comprehensive CDM platform."

Sensis Aerobahn combines airside operational information, such as flight schedules, with the exact location and identification of aircraft and vehicles on the surface of the airport and surrounding airspace for a real-time, comprehensive view of airport operations. Users can observe departure queues, view actual arrival demand and contrast the demand with available gates for arriving aircraft.  Aerobahn's event alerting capability empowers users to create their own customized filters to more quickly and better identify critical operating conditions and issues such as long on-board delays. All events are recorded for future playback to identify trends, develop new procedures that mitigate delays or similar events in the future and provide justification for process improvements. Aerobahn also provides users with the ability to create their own reports based on numerous variables for detailed analysis of operations.

Chatting on the Aerobahn platform operates similarly to other commercial chat software. Authorized users are provisioned by administrators and all messages are secure and archived for auditing or review during playback. Specific chat groups focused on common issues can be created for targeted communication. Users can drag and drop specific flights and associated data directly into the chat screen to easily highlight flights of interest or those requiring special attention or handling.   

"With Aerobahn chat, airport stakeholders can eliminate the time consuming and inefficient task of placing numerous telephone calls and voicemails every day in an attempt to communicate between organizations," said Kaminski. "For example, airlines and gate operators can instantly chat on Aerobahn about flight status, off-block times, or gate changes.  Additionally, an ANSP can broadcast a message to all users about configuration changes, weather or airfield conditions."

Sensis Aerobahn is the most widely deployed airport surface management system in the industry, being used by airlines, airport operators and ANSPs around the world. Aerobahn is the surface management system for the industry's only fully realized collaborative airport surface operations environment at JFK International Airport - where the ANSP (Federal Aviation Administration), airport owner (Port Authority of New York/New Jersey) and authorized airlines all have access to the same data for coordinated operations.

Three Spread Betting Contingencies for When Your Internet Connection Fails

LONDON, February 28, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --     As any regular computer user knows, technical problems can be a common
occurrence. Crashes, internet failures and power-cuts can all happen at the
worst possible times, whether you are typing up an important document or
placing a financial trade. Spread betting provider City Index (
http://www.cityindex.co.uk/) offers these pieces of advice for when your
computer is not acting the way it should.

    iPhone(TM) spread betting and mobile trading

    City Trading(TM), the live spread betting iPhone(TM) app from City Index,
offers all the key features of an online trading platform. The iPhone and
other smartphones are constantly connected to Wi-Fi or 3G, so you should be
able to access the platform and execute a trade within moments. The app is
also available for Android and BlackBerry phones. Learn more at
http://www.cityindex.co.uk/trading-platform/.

    Stop losses and limit orders

    Financial spread betting providers such as City Index offer an extensive
range of order types to add greater flexibility to your trading. Stop losses
and limit orders are trading tools that allow you to automatically open,
close, or amend your spread bets at predetermined prices. These should be
used by all traders, regardless of whether they expect something to go wrong
with their computer or not, because you never know what is going to happen to
the markets.

    Telephoning the provider directly

    You can call most spread betting providers' trading desks direct to place
spread bets or orders over the telephone. Although a useful option, this is a
less instant way of spread betting than mobile or iPhone trading platforms.
That said, you can never have to many contingency plans, so always keep your
spread betting provider's telephone number written down just in case. The
City Index trading desk can be contacted at 0845 355 0801.

    To find out more about the range of mobile spread betting apps from City
Index, visit:

    To find out more about stop losses, limit orders and other spread betting
terms, visit the City Index spread betting glossary at:

    http://www.cityindex.co.uk/learn-to-trade/glossary.aspx

    Spread betting and CFD trading are leveraged products which can result in
losses greater than your initial deposit. Ensure you fully understand the
risks.

derivatives, and many of them are discovering them through a City Index
trading platform.

    As a group, we transact in excess of 1.5 million trades every month for
individuals in over 50 countries worldwide. We provide access to a wide range
of instruments including margined foreign exchange, contracts for differences
(CFDs) and, in the UK, spread betting.

    We constantly look to widen the range of assets we offer, improve the
performance of our platforms and expand the range of services we provide. The
result is that our customers benefit from innovative trading tools with
transparent pricing, competitive spreads, and a high standard of customer
service and support.
