Logicalis Unveils Enhanced Virtualisation Portfolio Optimised for Business Flexibility and Technology Efficiency

Helps Organisations Maximise Investment in Virtualisation Technologies; Launches Innovation Dividend to Support Strategic IT Initiatives

SLOUGH, England, Nov. 25, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- International solutions provider, Logicalis, today announced an innovative range of solutions and services specifically designed to help organisations optimise and maximise their investment in virtualisation technologies.  Designed to transform virtualisation from a 'hot' technology to a strategic and trusted business platform, Logicalis' Virtualisation: Optimised for Business portfolio provides a 360 degree lifecycle view of virtualisation, covering architecture, support, services, management and hosting.  Logicalis believes it now offers the UK's most cost efficient virtualisation lifecycle ownership model.

By looking at virtualisation as a single entity, as opposed to disparate technology platforms, organisations can better ensure optimum performance and efficiency throughout the lifecycle of its virtualised infrastructure; consolidate multiple support contracts; improve business service levels; reduce hosting space and simplify overall management of the virtualised infrastructure, ultimately driving down costs.

Logicalis' Virtualisation: Optimised for Businessportfolio incorporates:

    --  Business Optimised Virtualisation Architecture
    --  Virtual Architecture Support Agreement
    --  Virtual Architecture Optimisation Services
    --  Virtual Architecture Management Framework
    --  Virtual Architecture Hosting Services

To help organisations navigate their IT journey through virtualisation and future strategies, Logicalis has also announced an Innovation Dividend which provides customers with a consulting fund intended to help navigate future business and technology strategy.

"While individual virtualisation technologies have come of age, we have so far seen sparse attention paid to bringing a complete lifecycle approach to owning and operating virtual architectures," explains Chris Gabriel, director of solutions and marketing at Logicalis.  "It is evident from issues such as the disconnect between disparate virtual infrastructures and multiple support contracts with differing SLAs, that the industry has focussed on helping customers to consolidate, rather than provide lifecycle solutions and services that can increase operational effectiveness and realise increased business value."

Suitable for businesses with mature virtual estates, as well as those taking their first steps toward virtualisation, Logicalis' Virtualisation: Optimised for Business portfolio provides:

    --  Business Optimised Virtualisation Architecture: A custom packaged
        virtual architecture, including network, server, storage, hypervisor
        platforms, virtual management tools, support and maintenance, and
        on-going optimisation services to ensure virtual architectures stay
        within planned capacity and performance characteristics.
    --  Virtual Architecture Support Agreement: A single contractual support
        agreement that includes on-going optimisation services, contract cost
        consolidation, improved virtual architecture availability, and
        synchronises SLAs.
    --  Virtual Architecture Optimisation Services: Optimisation services to
        reduce virtual server sprawl, mitigate infrastructure capacity
        constraints to remove performance bottlenecks, and ensure virtual
        architecture meets ICT consolidation and business improvement
        objectives.
    --  Virtual Architecture Management Framework: A single framework that
        consolidates infrastructure and hypervisor management and provisioning,
        and reduces operational cost and complexity.
    --  Virtual Architecture Hosting Services: High density hosting services
        that deliver 4:1 consolidation over typical low-density hosting
        environments, and enable businesses to achieve up to 20% cost saving on
        traditional hosting contracts.

Gabriel concludes, "Virtualisation is a technology necessity; managed as a long-term strategic business platform it will deliver efficiency and performance advantages.  Logicalis' investment in the lifecycle of virtualisation, coupled with our recently completed high density data centre, enables customers to look beyond server consolidation and realise ongoing operational cost savings, improved business performance, and service availability.  Logicalis' Innovation Dividend is a further demonstration to our customers that their investments in virtualisation today will be matched by our support for their business and technology change tomorrow."

Qihoo 360 Detects Oldest Vulnerability in Microsoft OS

BEIJING, Nov. 25, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Today, China's leading network security services provider, Qihoo 360, released an emergency network security warning, claiming that it has first discovered an Exploit Code of an 18-year latent high-risk 0day vulnerability that affects all Windows versions. This vulnerability named as "elder" is very likely to confront worldwide computer users with a new round of malicious attacks. However, netizens on the Chinese Mainland do not need to worry about that. 360 Safe, the flagship security software of Qihoo 360, is upgrading the temporary kernel security patches and can perfectly immunize against the security problems caused by this vulnerability. 

According to Dr. Shi Xiaohong, a security expert of Qihoo 360: "Since 1992, there has been a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the Windows operating system, through which hackers may seize the highest control of the system and easily undermine or prohibit any security software, including anti-virus software, firewall, proactive defense software, sand box and the system restore. They can also hack around the UAC protection of Windows Vista/Win7 or elevate the privilege on a server website to take control of the vulnerability network server, and directly threaten the information security of government, enterprises, Internet bars and PC users.

"This 18-year latent high-risk 0day vulnerability will affect all Windows operating system versions including Windows NT4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, etc.," said Dr. Shi Xiaohong, who also claimed that the researchers in Qihoo 360 independently discovered this vulnerability at the end of October this year, and informed MSRC of the details of the vulnerability and demonstration program and assisted Microsoft to make the security patch for the vulnerability so as to solve this security problem, while Microsoft also acknowledged it was a serious privilege escalation vulnerability.

"If you liken Trojan horses to thieves sneaking into homes, then the local privilege escalation vulnerability may turn this thief into the host of your homes and do whatever it wants to do, since they can directly shut up or bypass any antitheft device you have installed. Qihoo 360's security experts suggested that previously Stuxnet has just used another Windows local privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2010-2743) to seize control of the system. This vulnerability first appeared in 1995 and has a latency of 15 years. In addition, in January 2010, Google's engineers also revealed an 'elder' vulnerability that existed since 1993. However, this time Qihoo 360 has discovered the "the oldest 0day vulnerability in history".

Qihoo 360 has been the first to intercept high-risk 0Day vulnerability attacks many times in China, including the vulnerabilities in IE XML, Microsoft Mpeg-2 video and Office web part, and also has received the public thanks of Microsoft for being the first to discover vulnerability in the Directshow video development Kit. The only domestic company for China's personal computer security, Qihoo 360, as the first company to independently discover this "18-year-ole 0day" vulnerability, again refreshes the records of China's security industry.

Dr. Shi Xiaohong said, "In the next 48 hours, all 360 Safe users just need to open 360 Trojan firewall with Internet connection. The 360 Safe will automatically update the temporary kernel patches directed against the vulnerability. Without any other operation, you can arm your computers with the exact immunities. Before Microsoft launches its official patch for the vulnerability, in order to protect users from the harm of this vulnerability, 360 Security Center will not disclose any technical details of the vulnerability temporarily," revealed Shi Xiaohong.

About Qihoo 360

Founded in July 2006, Qihoo 360 is the leading Internet security services provider in China. Our goal is to secure the Internet and destroy the cyber criminal ecosystem. With innovative cloud security technology and the world's largest cloud security system, Qihoo 360 discovers and defends from more than 3 millions new Trojans, plug-ins, and malwares every day, and cleans up hundreds of millions of intrusion or infection incidents.

Windows IT Pro: "Improved Reliability is Within Your Grasp"

LONDON, November 25, 2010/PRNewswire/ --

    - New White Paper Details Reliability Benefits of Diskeeper Performance
Technology

    Leading IT publication Windows IT Pro has released a new white paper
entitled "Improved Reliability is Within Your Grasp," enumerating the many
benefits to system reliability available from Diskeeper(R) performance
software. These benefits include increases of 50 percent or more in system
stability, decreases in system crashes by upwards of 20 percent, drastic
reductions in file corruption and data loss, and much more.

    "A recent Windows IT Pro survey of Diskeeper performance software users
shows that senior IT management doesn't require educating or convincing that
preventive, proactive defragmentation of the hard drives in an enterprise
system has an overall positive effect on the IT environment," David
Chernicoff of Windows IT Pro wrote in the white paper. "Diskeeper technology
brings to the table an essential component of their IT department's ability
to deliver the most efficient and reliable computing environment to their
business."

    The white paper found that the corporate computing landscape continues to
change at a rapid pace, and that IT finds itself in the position of needing
to master significant new technologies in a rapid evaluation that allows
business to keep pace with their competitors. These technologies include
server and client virtualization, server consolidation, public and private
cloud technologies, and green IT.

    Diskeeper, with its proprietary IntelliWrite(TM) fragmentation prevention
technology, fully supports such innovative technologies by preventing
fragmentation before it even happens-fully automatically. "With Diskeeper
running as an invisible background application continually optimising disk
access and preventing fragmentation, the potential for a negative impact on
the user experience is eliminated," Chernicoff said.

    The white paper found that many IT departments deploy Diskeeper as a
standard part of system configuration for both servers and workstations.
Their survey showed that the benefits gained from this practice far exceed
expectations.

    "The dream of the IT department is to be able to configure and deploy
systems that will then run with little to no interaction from IT," the white
paper concluded. "The benefits of improved hardware reliability and system
performance are clear; longer system life, more effective information
delivery, improved user productivity. These are far beyond the benefits
commonly associated with disk defragmentation software and are the result of
a comprehensive deployment of Diskeeper."

    The complete white paper can be downloaded at:

    About Diskeeper Corporation

    Innovators in Performance and Reliability Technologies(R): CIOs, IT
Managers and System Administrators of Global Fortune 1000 and Forbes 500
enterprises rely on Diskeeper(R) performance software to provide unparalleled
performance and reliability to their business laptops, desktops and servers.
Diskeeper 2010 includes the breakthrough IntelliWrite fragmentation
prevention technology. V-locity(TM) 2.0 virtual platform disk optimizer for
VMware ESX and Hyper-V eliminates the barriers to full virtual efficiency and
maximum I/O performance on virtual servers. Diskeeper Corporation further
provides real-time data protection and real-time data recovery with
Undelete(R) data recovery software (http://www.undelete.com). InvisiTasking(R)

RAD Unveils Price-Busting Carrier Ethernet NTU for SLA-Enabled EPL/EVPL Ethernet Services

HONG KONG, November 25, 2010/PRNewswire/ --

    - Feature-Rich ETX -203A Intelligent Demarcation Device Built Around
Company's Newly Developed Carrier Ethernet ASIC Providing All of RADs
EtherAccess Benefits at an Extremely Low Price

    At Carrier Ethernet World APAC in Hong Kong, RAD Data Communications will
be exhibiting for the first time in Asia its feature-rich Carrier Ethernet
NTU for MEF-certified SLA-enabled Ethernet services.

    The ETX-203A is based on the company's newly developed EtherAccess(TM)
Carrier Ethernet ASIC, which enabled setting the products price at $400 for
high-volume orders. The ETX-203A supports a licensing based, pay-as-you-grow
model. This means service providers can minimize CapEx during initial
deployment and upgrade key service parameters as their customers'
requirements change.

    Lowers the CapEx Barrier

    We are able to slash the investment carriers must make to launch new
profitable Layer 2 VPNs with a very powerful Carrier Ethernet service
delivery demarcation device by having developed in-house our own feature-rich
EtherAccess Carrier Ethernet ASIC, explains Amir Karo, VP Marketing at RAD
Data Communications. The new ETX-203A will dramatically lower the CapEx
barrier to mass deployment of differentiated MEF-certified EPL and EVPL
services for many operators that had considered offering premium business
Ethernet services with SLAs but had balked because of the relatively higher
cost of deploying intelligent CPEs.

    Business Services Game Changer

    This type of Carrier Ethernet demarcation device (tracked in Infonetics'
Ethernet Access Devices or EADs category) has the potential to be a game
changer in the competitive business services market segment. The cost point
looks to be about half of what we've seen in the best high volume EAD
contracts this year, states Michael Howard of Infonetics Research. It has a
full feature set, too, so we believe service providers will want to take a
look.

    The ETX-203A intelligent demarcation device supports MEF-9 and MEF-14
certified services for EPL and EVPL. It enables service providers to sell
excess bandwidth and increase the top line while decreasing OpEx by using its
15 tools for OpEx reduction and SLA management. RADs EtherAccess Carrier
Ethernet ASIC has powerful hierarchical traffic shaping and policing tools
per EVC.cos, a complete standards-based hardware-embedded Ethernet OAM suite
for wire speed and highly accurate end-to-end performance monitoring
capabilities. Other functionality includes a RFC-2544 test generation engine
for efficient throughput measurement, always-on Layer 1, 2 and 3 diagnostic
loopbacks to ensure rapid service troubleshooting as well as uplink
resiliency and EVC path protection per ITU-T G.8031.

    RAD will exhibit at Carrier Ethernet World APAC at Stand 7 from
December 1-3.

    About RAD

    Founded in 1981, privately-owned RAD Data Communications has achieved
international recognition as a major manufacturer of high quality access and
backhaul equipment for data communications and telecommunications
applications. These solutions serve the data and voice access requirements of

WEAV mobile allows users to access all of their social media outlets at the touch of a button on the iPad, iPhone, and soon to follow on the Droid Pad, Google Pad, Samsung Galaxy Pad, and the Toshiba Folio 100 Pad.

Ubiquity's WEAV mobile pulls from the best content on the web and gives the end user customized media and information based on their preferences and profile, and allows them to "WEAV" with family and friends with ease.

Ubiquity Board Member, Dr. Jeffrey Cole of USC's Annenberg School for the Digital Future said, "Ubiquity has the power to change social media and digital technology forever." Today close to 5 billion people are using mobile technology. Cole goes on to say, "The key transformational change is empowerment, and Ubiquity has created the tools to empower the end user."

WEAV mobile Targets 13-29 year olds, who ambitiously seek to feed their appetite for content over the internet and mobile media devices to share with their family and friends. WEAV is a one stop application that features a uniquely simple and smart proprietary navigation and content management system. WEAV mobile gives the end user access to multiple social media sites and ease of use with the mobile media device of their choice. "WEAV mobile will forever change the way people view social media," adds Connie Jordan co-founder of Ubiquity.

Ubiquity's innovative team continues to create ground breaking technology around their patents, and high quality content for broadcasts over the digital multi-media landscape.

"Ubiquity's patents in social networking, ecommerce, compression, and navigation are central core areas in media, internet, and mobile use that are really going to define the next 20 to 30 years of digital use," added Dr. Jeff Cole.

HP Designjet T2300 eMultifunction Printer to Come Bundled With Autodesk

BARCELONA, Spain, Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ --New HP ePrint & Share and HP Designjet T2300 eMultifunction Printer (eMFP) solution allows design teams to easily access, share and print large-format project files online anytime, anywhere.*

The announcement means that design professionals in the architecture, engineering and construction industries will be able to save time, improve collaboration and reduce review cycles using the industry's first web-ready large-format printing solution.

HP has also introduced new HP Graphics Solutions Partner Program offerings that come bundled with the HP Designjet T2300 eMFP to help simplify and improve the technical design process.

"In September, HP announced a breakthrough in the way design professionals can collaborate and share information through its ePrint & Share platform and the new HP Designjet T2300 eMFP," said Santiago Morera, vice president and general manager, HP Designjet Large-Format Solutions. "Today, HP is making this innovative solution available to allow technical design professionals to reduce review cycles and unleash their creativity."

The HP ePrint & Share platform revolutionizes the way design professionals manage project workflows. HP ePrint & Share allows architects, engineers and construction professionals to directly scan project files to the cloud, quickly print and access plans from the road, share designs with remote project teams* and seamlessly collaborate with design partners around the world.

HP ePrint & Share is available for all HP Designjet customers and will be accessible from the touchscreen of the HP Designjet T2300 eMFP**. Designed to match today's collaborative and mobile work styles, the large-format printer allows technical design professionals to easily scan and upload documents to the web and to print drawings wherever needed.*

HP and Autodesk, a leader in 3-D design software, are providing a completely integrated workflow solution that helps design professionals improve efficiency, collaboration and productivity on every project, from start to finish.

Autodesk software solutions bundled with every HP Designjet T2300 eMFP purchase include:

"Beginning a project with a CAD file instead of manually creating a design in AutoCAD based on paper files is a much more efficient process."

Also bundled with each HP Designjet T2300 eMFP is a 30-day trial version of Softcover International's Scan2CAD software. Customers who have purchased an HP Designjet T2300 eMFP will also be entitled to a significant discount on Scan2CAD software, version 8.

This is a bad move if it comes to pass. It looks like Ubuntu is eying a move to a rolling release instead of the 6 month schedule. Some people may applaud this, but I do not. The release cycle and stable releases give people the ability to stick with something that works.

There are times that something changes in the Kernel that breaks a piece of hardware or even hardware support is removed for older hardware. Having a rolling release is a bad idea for the most part. The only plus side is that most of the user space programs will be kept current, but that is mostly done already.

Quote

Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth told press recently that a move to daily updates would help the popular Linux disto keep pace with an increasingly complex software and platform ecosystem as Ubuntu goes on more devices and syncs up Android and iPhones.

Software Center - barely a year old - is leading these changes, and Shuttleworth has promised this would "go further and faster than people might have envisioned in the past."

"Today we have a six-month release cycle," Shuttleworth said. "In an internet-oriented world, we need to be able to release something every day.

"That's an area we will put a lot of work into in the next five years. The small steps we are putting in to the Software Center today, they will go further and caster than people might have envisioned in the past."

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/11/23/darily_ubuntu_updates/

A tip: You don't need to reinstall every 6 months on a new release. You can just upgrade or keep the same /home directory and everything will be the same as it was. This is what I do.

Webroot Announces Prevx Cloud-based Anti-malware In-a-Box

Prevx 3.0 Now Available From Leading US Retailers

BOULDER, Colorado, November 24, 2010/PRNewswire/ --     Webroot, the first Internet security service company, today announced
availability of Prevx 3.0 across leading US retailers. From today, PC users
can purchase boxed versions of Prevx 3.0 - powerful, cloud-based anti-malware
technology from Webroot subsidiary Prevx - at Amazon.com, Buy.com, Fry's
Electronics and Fry's.com, J&R, Micro Center, Newegg.com, PCmall.com and
other leading retailers nationwide. The award-winning Prevx 3.0 is a layered
anti-malware solution designed to boost PC protection by offering faster
scanning, a super-light footprint and full compatibility with all the popular
anti-malware brands on the market today. PC users will be able to purchase
two versions of the product: Prevx 3.0 Cloud Anti-Malware or Prevx 3.0 Cloud
Security, which includes the powerful Prevx SafeOnline browser-based security
technology.

    "Attacks by cybercriminals continue to wreak havoc, despite the vast
number of anti-malware or antivirus (AV) products available online or in
stores across the country. Customers regularly praise our layered security
solution for addressing this issue whereby Prevx 3.0 is downloaded and then
installed alongside an existing AV to help boost PC defenses," said Mel
Morris, vice president and general manager of Prevx operations at Webroot.
"Indeed, Prevx is recognized in the industry as a pioneering 'cloud-based'
anti-malware solution. This not only means that our approach to combating
malware comes from the cloud but it is also the way in which we deliver our
product to customers. As a result of our continued success, more customers
have come to us asking for a boxed version of our solution, as this is how
they've historically preferred to purchase their PC software. This is why we
are extremely pleased to be partnering with some of the country's leading
retailers to offer a powerful, cloud-based anti-malware solution in-a-box."

    Prevx solutions leverage the world's largest cloud-based threat database
with knowledge of more than 140 million software applications and 40 million
known malicious objects, supported by the most powerful automated malware
research operation. This means that unlike traditional anti-malware
solutions, if Prevx sees a threat once, all users' PCs are immediately
updated to prevent an attack without having to wait for an update. At under
1MB in size, Prevx solutions include the world's smallest, fastest, and
lightest security agent, which downloads, installs and scans a PC in minutes.
Prevx solutions are also fully interoperable with an existing anti-malware
solution. Hence, even if a PC user has a security product installed, Prevx
will run alongside it to show what it is missing and provide an extra layer
of defence.

    As a result of this unique combination of faster scanning, a super-light
footprint and interoperability with other anti-malware products, customers
who purchase Prevx 3.0 Cloud Anti-Malware will be protected by one of the few
solutions to receive a Platinum Product Award from security testing expert
West Coast Labs. Those that select Prevx 3.0 Cloud Security with have all the
benefits of Prevx 3.0 Cloud Anti-Malware plus the industry leading
browser-based security technology, Prevx SafeOnline. Prevx SafeOnline gives
PC users confidence when using the internet by mitigating the risk of online
fraud attacks such as phishing, DNS poisoning, screen grabbing,
man-in-the-browser and keystroke logging - even in the unlikely event of
malware breaking through a PC's defense.

    Morris added: "One harsh reality of the threat that cybercrime poses is
that a single piece of malware that lives undetected for 5 minutes can
already complete its job. For the increasing number of people today who use
the internet to access all manner of personalized services or transactions,
such as online banking and e-commerce, a combination of PC and browser-based
protection is absolutely critical. Prevx SafeOnline offers protection on all
websites and at all times by locking down the PC operating system and browser
to render malware blind to the transaction. This means personal details such
as passwords and log-in credentials will not fall into the wrong hands even
if there is a virus on your PC."

    Prevx 3.0 Cloud Anti-Malware is available today at a recommended annual
subscription price of $29.99 for one PC or $49.99 for up to 3 PCs. Prevx 3.0

subscription price of $59.99 for up to 3 PCs. In addition, at no additional
charge, U.S. based technical support is provided by CloudSpyder for the

Retailers Subject to Significant Online Advertising Risk this Holiday Shopping Season

Industry Report Finds Incidents of Inappropriate Ad Placements and Geo-targeting Non-Compliance Higher for Retailer Brands

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a report released today from AdSafe Media, the online advertising practices of retailers have the potential to put their brands at significant risk this holiday season, a period that has traditionally seen a significant increase in media spending from retailers.  Key findings from the pre-holiday season report (AdSafe's Third Quarter Review) include statistics regarding the appearance of retailers' advertisements on pages that would be considered inappropriate for advertising, and the frequency in which retailer's advertisements were served outside geographic target markets.

Specific data points from the report include:

    --  Retailer ads appeared on Web pages that were rated 6 percent more risky
        for advertising than industry averages
    --  Adult Content was the most prevalent type of high risk content for
        retailers' ads
    --  4 percent of Retailer ads were served outside of geographic targeting
        requirements

While most retailers are conscious of these brand safety risks, the holiday shopping season's forecasted increases in advertising spend by retailers have the potential to magnify these brand safety risks.

"Brand safety concerns are top-of-mind for most retailers leveraging digital to engage with their consumers. Having your brand appear in an inappropriate context not only has financial and regulatory implications, it has the potential to compromise consumers' perception of your brand. This is of the upmost concern to brands in the peak of their purchase cycle, such as over the holidays," commented Julie Roehm, a leading strategic marketing consultant and former SVP of Marketing for Wal-Mart.

In order to mitigate advertisers' concerns during periods of increased ad spending, many brands are employing brand safety platforms to enable "brand safe" advertising.

"Historically advertisers have had to balance their need for increased reach with their desire for brand safety. As advertisers increase their reach they have had to sacrifice control over the type of content they advertise against. We have found that retailers face unique challenges in this balancing act due to the cyclicality of their business; they must increase ad spending dramatically in a very short window of time. We have seen an increase in the number of retailers using our brand safety tools in preparation for this holiday season," commented Kent Wakeford, President of AdSafe, a leading brand safety platform.

Online-to-Offline Consumer Product Search Company Goodzer Launches Web and Mobile-based Service for the Holiday Shopping Season

Real-Time Product Searches of 15,000 NYC-Area Brick and Mortar Retailers - Easily Scalable to 1 Million Retail Stores Nationwide

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Goodzer, a unique online-to-offline search service, announced today the availability of its web and mobile tool to consumers searching for products in the Greater New York City area. The service comes before the start of "Black Friday," the starting point of the holiday shopping season.

Goodzer's initial launch covers more than 15,000 brick-and-mortar stores, big and small, in the five boroughs of New York City, including Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island. Users can instantly search these stores to locate any consumer product imaginable, from iPads to antique jewelry. Search results display product pricing, real-time in-stock status, and distance to the retailer through full integration with Google's Maps and Street View.

The idea for Goodzer's product was developed by Co-Founder and CEO Dmitry Pakhomkin earlier this year. Spurred on by his wife's frustration in spending too much time looking for consumer items, Mr. Pakhomkin tasked himself with creating a specialized online search for brick and mortar retailers. Dmitry began working with Co-Founder Artem Zarutskiy after reading a blog detailing Mr. Zarutskiy's work on a similar localized search program for the Moscow area. Since 2008, Mr. Zarutskiy had been perfecting the brick and mortar search technology ultimately used to power Goodzer. After connecting, the two quickly agreed to a partnership and began refining the Goodzer service in April 2010.

"We realized that to build the perfect product search, contacting individual retailers is simply not scalable and would ignore the massive number of smaller independent stores," said Pakhomkin. "Goodzer is truly automated and the size of the retailer is immaterial. The technology does all of the work and is not constrained by the limits of human interaction, which allows us the ability to quickly scale up to expand coverage to more than 1 million retailers nationwide."

Goodzer is available on the web at http://www.goodzer.com and will be available shortly for the iPhone, with plans for the Droid, iPad and other device compatibility underway.

About Goodzer

Founded in the Spring of 2010, Goodzer is an online-to-offline search company that offers consumers a simple location-based service to find any consumer item. Founded by software engineers Dmitry Pakhomkin and Moscow-based Artem Zarutskiy, the company has received angel funding and is planning to scale to national and international retail coverage. A soft launch of the service for the five boroughs of New York City is scheduled before the start of the fall holiday shopping season. For more information, visit http://www.goodzer.com.

STULZ-ATS Introduces CyberMOD(TM), the First EC Fan Retrofit Kit for Existing Computer Room Air Handlers

STULZ-ATS' CyberMOD(TM) EC Fan Retrofit Kit is an economical approach to finding significant fan energy savings in the cooling systems of existing data centers with no modification to infrastructure or floor tile configuration.

FREDERICK, Md., Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- STULZ Air Technology Systems, Inc. (STULZ-ATS), the US design and manufacturing arm of the global STULZ Group today announced the CyberMOD(TM), an easy-to-install EC Fan upgrade kit designed to retrofit older Liebert brand computer room air handlers by replacing inefficient, belt-driven forward curved, DWDI fans with efficient EC plug fans. 

A member of the STULZ-ATS family of Mission Energy Products, the CyberMOD(TM) uses EC plug fans; direct drive, single inlet, backward curved radial fans with an electronically commutated (AC to DC) motor. Benefits include adjustable fan speed with no VFD, lower running costs, low-maintenance, no belts or belt dust, low-noise operation, built-in redundancy, more efficient than belt-driven motor, and optimized air distribution into the data center raised floor to avoid hot spots.

EC vs VFD - CyberMOD(TM) has distinct energy-saving advantages over systems using VFD (variable frequency drive) motors.  EC Fans are more efficient at partial load, where many data centers are running, because they maintain efficiency throughout the entire speed and load range.  They do not rely on incoming line voltage, which results in a more precise air flow.  Lower motor temperatures result in a higher net cooling capacity, possibly reducing the number of air conditioners required. 

"Not all data center projects are green field projects, and not all data center owners are willing or able, to remove existing cooling equipment and replace it entirely," says Oliver Stulz, President, STULZ-ATS. "The CyberMOD(TM) EC Fan Retrofit kit answers the call for a more economical approach to finding energy savings in existing data centers without a complete redesign of the data center floor plan."

Proven Energy Savings:  In a true, apple to apples test conducted at the STULZ-ATS facility, one Liebert 740C was 20% more energy efficient after the CyberMOD(TM) kit was installed.  At a CFM of 16,500, the modified CRAH consumed 7.3 kilowatts of fan energy compared to the 8.68 kilowatts consumed at our test facility when maxing out their 10hp forward curved centrifugal fans.  Point of interest: The CyberMOD(TM) fans were not running at maximum speed to achieve the published CFM.  If the CyberMOD(TM) fans are increased to maximum CFM, even more cooling is available, and if energy savings are the goal, the use of redundant units can achieve savings of over 60%.   

The CyberMOD(TM) comes in 2- and 3- fan configurations and is designed specifically to retrofit Liebert Chilled Water Models 529C and 740C Deluxe System/3.  CyberMOD(TM) is available for purchase; contact the STULZ-ATS service division for a factory authorized site evaluation and compatibility study.

STULZ-ATS is an ISO 9001 registered manufacturer of environmental control equipment including a full line of energy efficient precision air conditioners, ultrasonic humidifiers, and desiccant dehumidifiers. The company is responsible for product development, manufacturing, and distribution for the North American arm of the international Stulz GROUP.  For more information about STULZ-ATS and their products, call (301) 620-2033, email your request to info@stulz-ats.com or visit  http://www.stulz-ats.com.

AHAlife.com Collaborates With The Girl Scout Council of Greater New York this Thanksgiving To Benefit The Career Exploration Program

New Yorkers will receive the gift of a box of Girl Scout cookies just in time for the holidays

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Beginning today, AHAlife.com, the website that features one-of-a-kind items from the worlds of fashion, food, art, lifestyle, design, and more is partnering with the Girl Scouts of New York City on an exclusive opportunity to benefit the Girl Scouts Career Exploration Program.  For a minimum donation of $25, AHAlife members will support an inspiring program which provides mentoring opportunities and invites strong, accomplished women - from leaders of industry to innovators in their field - to speak to and encourage these Girl Scouts to achieve their goals. As a special thank you for their donation, AHAlife members will receive their choice of a box of Girl Scout cookies that AHALife purchased from Girl Scouts in New York City.

For one week only, users can log onto AHAlife.com, from Wednesday, November 24, through Tuesday, November 30, to donate a minimum of $25 towards the Career Exploration Program.  As a "Thank You," AHAlife will allow supporters to choose from six popular flavors including Do-Si-Dos, Samoas, Tagalongs, Trefoils, Lemon Chalet Cremes, and Thin Mints. And for those who want to keep on giving, there is a seventh option which allows donors to forego their box of cookies and, instead, have them donated directly to our US Troops. This unique initiative will allow New Yorkers to receive Girl Scout cookies before anyone else, just in time for the holiday season.

"I am so excited to partner with Girl Scouts of New York City to support the Career Exploration Program. During my visit to the South Bronx where I spoke to many of these young, ambitious girls, I realized just how important it was to keep the message of following our dreams alive. I am proud to be affiliated with such an inspiring organization and encourage everyone to participate in the offer. If for nothing else, who can resist those hard-to-get Girl Scout cookies - the ultimate incentive to give back this holiday season!"

"We are changing the fate of so many young girls by providing them with early exposure to various career paths, instilling leadership development skills, and heightening their self-esteem so that they become confident and courageous young women today and self-sufficient women in the future," said Dawn Nolan, Acting CEO, Girl Scout Council of Greater New York.  "We are thankful for AHALife's partnership in helping us to spread the word about this program."

The money raised for the Career Exploration program, started by the Girl Scouts of New York City, will benefit more than 1,200 students in the New York City area, with a focus on five schools in the South Bronx.  Inspiring these young women to continue their education in a region where the graduation rate for students from some schools can be as low as 12%, this program provides a unique opportunity for young women to hear inspiring stories of achievement - and what it takes to get there - from women who have made it themselves.

Log onto AHAlife.com to become a member now and find out more about this special program.

Youku Partners with China Telecom for Joint Operation of Subscription-Based Video Channel

BEIJING, Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China's leading online video site Youku (http://www.youku.com) announced today that it would partner with China Telecom to manage the subscription-based new "Original Content" channel on the operator's 3G video service. The new cooperation marks the first time China Telecom has ever partnered with an online video site for 3G video services -- and continues Youku's strategy of forging strong, lasting partnerships with all three of China's telecom and mobile operators.

Under the new partnership, Youku will provide content and manage operations for the channel. When the Original Content channel launches late next month, subscribers will be able to pay over their mobile phones or via the internet for access to a broad range of high quality video content, including short films produced by Youku under its Youku Originals brand and all of the films co-produced by Youku as part of the hit 11 Degrees New Media Project -- on whatever screen they happen to have in front of them, whether it's their mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a desktop PC. The service will deliver high quality streaming video to any internet-connected device for a superb viewing experience.

In addition to being China's largest internet service provider, China Telecom is also the country's fastest-growing 3G mobile operator, with 3G subscriber growth of 76.5%, or nearly 4 million, for the year to date, bringing it to 9.2 million 3G subscribers. In May 2009, Youku became China's first online video site to make selections from its content library available to mobile users through its 3G portal (http://3g.youku.com); since then, Youku has seen mobile traffic grow to two million page views per day. Earlier this year, Youku moved even further beyond the PC when it became the first online video site in the world to make its entire catalogue of content available in HD for the iPad and iPhone 4. Through its new partnership with China Telecom and its ongoing partnerships with China's other two major telecom operators, Youku is laying the groundwork for the future of internet television on the PC and beyond.

Youku CTO Leo Yao Jian hailed the partnership as the latest move in Youku's long-term strategy of making internet video as ubiquitous as the internet itself. "Over the last year," Yao said, "we've been working to make Youku a part of people's daily lives, whether they're at their computers or commuting to work. We enjoy friendly working relationships with all three of China's 3G mobile operators, and we've seen explosive growth in the number of 3G users as a result of that." He added that Youku was working to explore business models for mobile access. "Mobile data fees are poised to become still cheaper next year," he said, "and we expect to see even greater growth in mobile users, which will mean ever closer partnerships between Youku and mobile operators in the future."

In addition to its regular web and mobile web interfaces, Youku also offers native software clients for all major smartphone operating systems. The company's free iOS app, for iPhones, iPod Touches, and iPads, is one of the most popular free downloads in China's iTunes App Store, and Youku applications for other operating systems have shipped pre-installed on more than 4.6 million smartphones this year alone. Youku estimates that its smartphone penetration is more than 50%.
