SIX FLAGS ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF NEW GAME FOR FACEBOOK

Mascot Park offers an innovative, social gaming experience

NEW YORK, June 28 -- Six Flags Entertainment, (NYSE:SIX) the world's largest regional theme park company, today announced the launch of its newest adventure, Mascot Park for Facebook.  Mascot Park delivers fun for gamers of all ages who are looking for more social interaction, creativity and zany antics in their daily playtime. Fun seekers can start their own Mascot Park mayhem by going to facebook.com/mascotpark.

  (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100628/NY27340LOGO )

As the game begins, players enter the Mascot Park world as a customizable mascot with a single goal, to become the star of the show. Players put on performances to entertain friends.  Better shows gain more fans and coins, thus giving players the ability to buy new costumes, unlock new mascots and add stage props and sets.  Participants can invite their friends to join the show and add their own personal flavor by dropping a cartoon-style TNT box that splats a friend's mascot or by choosing the classic pie-in-the-face maneuver. In Mascot Park, social collaboration exists on every level.

"We designed this game to be inherently more social than other Facebook games because players actually interact with their friends' shows and mascots," said John Welch, CEO of Making Fun.  "If fans are so inclined, they can throw an ax at a friend's mascot while putting on a show or dazzle them with pyrotechnics.  Players can decide the level of interaction."

To create a game that delivered Six Flags' signature brand of social fun, Six Flags sought the creative expertise of Noah Kerner, CEO of noise and Making Fun's John Welch.  Kerner, new media whiz and author of Chasing Cool, was behind Facebook's first app and some of its largest platforms. Welch, as CEO and founder of casual video game pioneer PlayFirst, introduced millions of gaming fans to the addictive table serving madness of Diner Dash.

For anyone looking to watch, create or disrupt a show, Six Flags Mascot Park spins together a fun-for-all Facebook experience with unique twists like hip-hop dancing rhinos and exploding bunny guns - both a first for any social networking game.  For more information about Six Flags Mascot Park, fans can go to facebook.com/mascotpark.

Launch of New LOUD3R Curation Platform Advances Online Publishing Technology

Completely redesigned LOUD3R Curation Platform simplifies online publishing; offers powerful tools to curate content feeds in real-time

PASADENA, Calif., June 28 -- LOUD3R, a technology company that provides publishers and marketers with a comprehensive platform for discovering, curating and publishing the most relevant, real-time content, today announced the launch of its new LOUD3R Curation Platform which features the ability to customize and curate content feeds in real-time.  Today's announcement makes the new platform -- already in use by LOUD3R's clients including the New York Daily News, Tribune Media Group, Fox Broadcasting Company and several other leading online marketers -- available to the market at large.

"Other content solution technologies only offer static, one-size-fits-all aggregated feeds of content," said Lowell Goss, CEO of LOUD3R.  "Our new platform provides speed, scale, and quality and gives publishers genuine editorial flexibility. The LOUD3R Curation Platform also offers robust tools that empower editors and marketers and let them add their own point of view, voice and brand, which are the keys to dynamic content curation."

In addition to a streamlined interface and intuitive user experience, the LOUD3R Curation Platform offers up-to-the-minute monitoring of topical content streams of news, blogs, photos, videos and Twitter, and provides complete flexibility for adding original content to the stream.  A Twitter management suite comes standard with the platform, and helps make sense of the tweet stream, identifies influential Twitter users and simplifies direct engagement with them.  Content streams curated through the platform are easily published to websites, apps and social media.

LOUD3R secured more than $3 million in financing earlier this year. Since then, the company has been developing new content curation technology and plans to introduce additional products throughout the year. In addition, the company recently launched partnerships with Tribune Media Group to power its hyperlocal ChicagoNow site, and with the New York Daily News to power its online Travel and World Cup 2010 sections.

"The New York Daily News was able to create new content-rich sections -- like our World Cup and Travel pages -- quickly and with very few resources; and that wouldn't have been possible without LOUD3R," said Steve Lynas, Senior Vice President, New York Daily News Digital. "Our editors can approve, endorse or supplement content sections in only minutes a day using the LOUD3R Curation Platform."

About LOUD3R

LOUD3R's content discovery, curation and publishing platform gives publishers and marketers simple tools to quickly add high quality content to their sites, apps and social media at a low cost. With more than 120,000 topics curated from more than 340,000 sources across the web, LOUD3R delivers the best real-time content. Founded in 2008, LOUD3R is based in Pasadena, Calif. and is led by former Google, MTV, MySpace and Yahoo! executives.

Breathe New Life Into Legacy Hard Drives With New Cirago USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Station

New SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Dock Delivers High Performance and Reliability; Plug-and-Play Ease Makes it Easy to Keep Legacy Drives in Service, Access Archived Storage and Reduce Electronic Waste

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 28 -- Cirago International, a leading manufacturer of multimedia centers, storage and wireless solutions, today announced the launch and immediate availability of its exclusive new CDD2000 USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Station. As one of the first SuperSpeed USB 3.0 devices of its kind on the market, the CDD2000 allows home and business users to keep legacy hard drives in service for quick and easy access to archived data or expanded storage options.

Featuring high-performance data transfer of up to 5 Gbps, the CDD2000 supports both 2.5" and 3.5" SATA I and II hard drives with plug-and-play ease and hot-swappable convenience. The sleek, contemporary design of the dock is unobtrusive on the desktop and its compact size makes for a small footprint.

"The USB 3.0 docking station is ideal for anyone who wants to upgrade their PC, but keep the hard drive--and all its stored data--accessible on their new machine," said Dean Basilio, Vice President of International Sales and Marketing at Cirago. "With the docking station, you just drop in the old drive and it's immediately accessible for additional storage capacity or accessing data stored on the drive. And, because it features the latest USB technology, it offers high-performance speed for quick and seamless access."

With literally tons of obsolete PCs sitting idle or being tossed into land fills, the Cirago CDD2000 makes it possible to extract even more value from existing hardware without keeping the entire PC tower sitting round taking up valuable desk space. Eliminating the expense of purchasing an enclosure for each hard drive, the Cirago CDD2000 not only helps to save money, but also reduces electronic waste. By essentially "recycling" hard drives, companies can use the Cirago CDD2000 to help meet sustainability or "green" operating objectives.

Unlike other manufacturers, each Cirago CDD2000 docking station comes with its own USB 3.0 cable and a UL®-certified power adapter for added reliability and safety. In addition, the CDD2000 is FCC, CE and RoHS certified. The Cirago CDD2000 has a suggested retail price of just $49.99 and is available at major electronics retailers.

To achieve the full benefit of USB 3.0 SuperSpeed technology requires USB 3.0 capability on the core machine. The CDD2000 is also backward compatible with the USB 2.0 and 1.1 standards.

For more information about the Cirago CDD2000 USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Station, visit http://www.cirago.com.

Gigamon Announces Bypass TAP for In-line Network Appliances

Bypass TAP Module Ensures 24x7 Network Uptime for Active In-line Tool Deployments

LAS VEGAS, June 28 -- Cisco Live! -- Gigamon(TM), the leading global provider of Intelligent Data Access Networking(TM), today announced from Cisco Live, a breakthrough Bypass TAP offering non-intrusive access for active in-line network security and monitoring appliances. The module is designed to work with the award-winning GigaVUE-420 Data Access Switch.

With deployments of active and in-line network security and monitoring devices such as Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), firewalls, VPN gateways and in-line Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) appliances, the possibility of tool failure presents risk to network connectivity. Gigamon's Bypass TAP allows the appliance to perform directly in-line and eliminates that risk to the network. The Bypass TAP protects the network link from appliance failure.

Patrick Leong, Gigamon's CTO and Co-Founder, said, "The new Bypass TAP module offers both active and passive bypass protection to the inline tool and at the same time allows traffic entering and leaving the inline tool to be aggregated, replicated, filtered, and mapped to the connected tools. We are a customer driven company. This kind of flexibility and powerful functionality is the kind of innovation that our customers have come to expect from the leader in this market and we delivered," said Leong.

"Our value to our customers has always been to collect the data from anywhere on the network, 24x7, and distribute the exact 'wanted' data to any tool. Active in-line appliances need to evaluate that data in real-time and at the same time assure the customer that they will not pose a risk to the availability of the network. Gigamon's new Bypass TAP provides that level of assurance," said Kevin Jablonski, VP of Marketing and Business Development for Gigamon.

The new module, GigaVUE TAP-BPC, is available immediately. To learn more, visit http://www.gigamon.com/ or call Gigamon's headquarters at (408) 263-2022.

Internet Evolution's Newest Video Tutorial Takes On Supply Chain Optimization

Tutor David Vellante breaks down the nuts and bolts of building and managing supply chain systems

NEW YORK, June 28 -- Supply chains, those systems and networks that link suppliers and customers, must be fine-tuned if companies are to derive maximized value from them. Thanks to Internet Evolution's latest video tutorial, hosted by enterprise computing expert David Vellante, enterprises can address common pitfalls and vulnerabilities in supply chain optimization (SCO) upfront and consider new capabilities in the future.

"It's critical for companies to get a better grasp of integration, optimization, and transformation of current supply chain systems," notes Vellante, founder of three startups including The Wikibon Project. "This tutorial compares build vs. buy approaches and suggests ways CIOs can craft holistic systems without breaking existing technology."

  The 10-part interactive tutorial can be viewed here:
  http://www.internetevolution.com/tutorial-supply-chain-optimization.asp?

In addition to best practices for successful supply chain optimization, Vellante addresses whether SCO is only applicable to large, Walmart-like multinational companies. He looks at how analytics factor into SCO, and even the role that China plays in supply chain management as the world's leader in low-cost manufacturing. Vellante also discusses the potential for cloud computing to address supply chain challenges, as well as the future of SCO.

Launch of Savvis Symphony Allows Clients to Configure Virtual Private Data Centers in the Cloud

Enterprise-Class Cloud Can Be Combined with Traditional Infrastructure Offerings Such as Colocation and Managed Services

ST. LOUIS, June 28 -- Savvis Symphony, one of the broadest lines of cloud services on the market, officially launches today with the release of Savvis Symphony Virtual Private Data Center (VPDC), a new cloud computing offering from Savvis, Inc. that provides clients with 100 percent enterprise-class cloud.

Savvis Symphony offers fully managed hosting services on top of fully managed, enterprise-class infrastructure. The Savvis Symphony suite of cloud services includes:

  --  Savvis Symphony VPDC and Savvis Symphony Open - both public cloud
      services - which offer differentiated service levels with predictable
      performance for scenarios ranging from development and testing of new
      applications to automated capacity increases due to seasonality or
      unforeseen demand for IT resources; and
  --  Savvis Symphony Dedicated - a private cloud service - which allows
      clients to tailor and scale their dedicated infrastructure at their
      own pace.

Savvis Symphony VPDC allows enterprises to quickly and securely design and deploy a complete set of enterprise-class data center services for a variety of applications. There's no need to physically procure, install, configure or manage any hardware.

"An enterprise-class VPDC can be configured and deployed in about an hour from anywhere in the world, whereas it often takes up to 90 days to provision physical servers and build out the operating systems using typical IT processes," said Bryan Doerr, chief technology officer at Savvis.

Savvis Symphony VPDC currently features two service profiles - Essential and Balanced - with a third - Premier - planned in a follow-up release. "Our multilevel service profile capability provides a range of features, support levels and performance to meet the needs of various application types, including test and development, web hosting and mission-critical applications," Doerr said.

As enterprises look to move mission-critical applications to the cloud, many are increasingly concerned with the privacy and security of their data, as well as the performance of their cloud-based applications. Savvis addresses these requirements through a range of network solutions integrated with Savvis Symphony. This "converged cloud" includes network options ranging from public connectivity over Savvis' Tier 1 IP network backbone to secure, low-latency, quality-of-service-enabled Application Transport Services (ATS), Savvis' core Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)-based service.

In addition, Savvis Symphony Open and Savvis Symphony Dedicated can be used to create unique hybrid solutions that blend enterprise-class cloud with traditional infrastructure services such as colocation and managed services. This unique combination of services, infrastructure and business model, coupled with Savvis' global data center footprint, enables enterprises to create a consistent, secure application experience anywhere in the world.

"Not all applications are cloud ready, but enterprises still want to take advantage of the cost savings of cloud," Doerr said. "Savvis Symphony hybrid solutions tie the cloud into an organization's colocation, managed services and network services to solve unique needs while backed by the security and performance of a leading infrastructure provider."

Savvis Symphony benefits also include design and control of services through click-and-drag provisioning using the SavvisStation Portal, rapid scalability and hourly billing.

Innovest Systems, a financial services company with a software-as-a-service (SaaS) trust and wealth management platform, turned to Savvis Symphony VPDC as a beta client. Innovest, which continues to use the Savvis cloud service, now has the flexibility, scalability and control it needs to keep its IT infrastructure in sync with customer demand for its solutions.

"Today, if I need more resources, I don't even have to contact Savvis. I can go directly to my customer portal and create a data center and deploy it," said Ray Umerley, vice president, chief security officer, Innovest. "I can actually go in and provision storage, and I can provision virtual machines."

Umerley appreciates the many features of Savvis Symphony VPDC.

"A lot of other cloud vendors put your data wherever they have space - they could be splitting your data up amongst multiple data centers, so it's really hard to tell where it is, who has access to it, or even whether it is crossing international lines," he said. "With Savvis, you know exactly where your data is. Savvis is completely transparent."

The Savvis Symphony suite of services currently is available in 18 data centers with global access via Savvis' network across North America, Europe and Asia.

Misys and Numerix Expand Global Partnership to Bring Further Innovation in Financial Instrument Creation

NEW YORK and LONDON, June 28, 2010--

    - Improves Modeling, Pricing and Risk Management of OTC Derivatives and
Structured Products

    Misys plc (LSE: MSY), the global application software and services
company and Numerix, the leading provider of cross-asset analytics for
derivatives valuations and risk management, today announced the expansion of
their global partnership and distribution agreement.

    The two companies have been working closely together as partners since
2001 with more than 50 shared customers as a result. The extended agreement
enables financial and insurance institutions to create derivatives and
structured products for their clients much more flexibly and across a broader
range of asset classes.

    With Misys owning a significant percentage of the system solution market
and Numerix being the dominant independent analytics provider, Financial and
Insurance institutions are able to address the significant challenges of
regulations, operational risks, and uniformity of pricing and valuations for
all derivatives and structured products, regardless of the complexity. Misys
is now a Numerix platinum partner - representing the highest level achievable
in the Numerix Partner Program - with the most tightly coupled and integrated
pricing and analytic solutions for Misys Summit and Opics users in the
Financial and Insurance markets.

    The expanded agreement provides new and existing Misys customers with
unique ways of accessing and using Numerix pricing, analytics and risk
management solutions for their OTC derivative and structured product needs.
Customers will now be able to purchase the integrated solutions directly from
Misys, further streamlining vendor and system complexity.

    "It is vital for financial institutions to have fast and efficient access
to the best market analytics and pricing models available," states Larry
Mitchell, VP Solutions Management, Misys Treasury & Capital Markets. "Through
partnering with Numerix, we can now further expand the range of models and
instruments available to clients and provide real value to the derivatives
and structured products industry. It gives our customers the ability to
address the significant demands to be fully transparent, increase workflow
and provide more flexibility while still allowing them to retain control and
reduce costs and operational risk."

    "This expansion of our relationship with Misys to include the direct sale
of additional Numerix products and services was a natural evolution for us
given the success of our original partnership," adds Steven R. O'Hanlon,
President and COO of Numerix. "Now, all participants in a firm may access the
same analytics, from pre-trade through life cycle management on a unified
analytics platform. Together, Misys and Numerix are addressing both valuation
requirements across all asset classes, in addition to addressing the internal
and external compliance and operational risk needs of our customers. Having
Misys onboard as a Platinum level partner adds tremendous value for our joint
clients and we look forward to a long and successful working relationship."

    Front-office professionals and users of Summit FT can use Numerix
Portfolio and Numerix CrossAsset XL for pre-trade analysis, trade capture,
pricing and risk management of any OTC derivative and structured product.
Together, these solutions now provide an extensive range of risk management
and reporting capabilities, including MTM, P&L and risk metrics, including
all the Greeks, MC VaR, scenario analysis, model validation/convergence and
custom risk reports. Numerix CrossAsset suite is available either with full
support for all major asset classes or through modules targeted to individual
asset classes.

    Shared customers can now also leverage the ability of Misys systems
powered by Numerix to communicate using Numerix's revolutionary "deal
standard" XML capabilities. Summit FT users can export deal definitions and
pricing inputs for any trade into a Numerix XML file that is both machine -
and human - readable. The deal can then be easily archived or imported into
other Misys - Numerix powered solutions, improving workflow efficiency and
reducing operational risk.

    Summit FT's seamless integration to Numerix models and risk functionality
has been developed jointly and is already in production with customers
globally. This agreement greatly expands the ready-to use interface to handle
Numerix risk functionality, advanced modeling and expanded OTC derivative and
structured products deal coverage through the Summit FT award-winning
structured products module - Summit MUST.

    Misys Opics Plus supports more asset classes and sophisticated structures
through the partnership, providing users with further flexibility. The
enhanced Numerix-powered independent pricing and risk information for
structured products and exotic OTC derivatives will improve front-to-back
integration across both solutions, enabling users to quickly and accurately
calculate prices for popular structured products across a wide variety of
asset classes. In addition, Opics Plus users may opt for leveraging Numerix
Portfolio for trade capture and risk management.

e-communication: SPIE Steps up Web Innovations

PARIS, June 10, 2010--

    - An Array of New Communication Tools Goes Hand in Hand With the
Group's Firm Commitment to the Green Economy.

    - With its Simultaneous Launch of the New Web 2.0 Version of its
MySPIE Virtual World and a New Corporate Website Including a Mobile Version,
SPIE Stands out as a Pioneer in its Business Sector.

    Only a few weeks after being awarded an AccessiWeb silver label for its
new recruitment site, Europe's leader in electrical engineering, HVAC
engineering, energy and communication systems is putting online the new web
2.0 version of its virtual island MySPIE (http://www.myspie.eu) and its new
corporate website with a special version for mobile terminals. Its goals are
greater accessibility and improving the understanding of the Group's
positioning and business lines.

    To view the Multimedia News Release, please click:

    http://multivu.prnewswire.com/mnr/prne/spie/42438/

    Interconnecting the whole SPIE world

    SPIE (http://www.spie.com) continues to revolutionise the corporate
communication landscape with a 2nd version of its virtual island MySPIE
together with its Facebook page. Fully developed in 3D, MySPIE already
presented the Group's business fields through interactive animations
incorporating rich media content. Equipped with a completely revised dynamic
interface and an original navigation system suitable for use on a tactile
screen, this virtual world is enhanced by unique content and new spaces to
visit. It includes new read and 3D animation download functionalities, social
network sharing and a dedicated Facebook page. A password-accessible client
space displays projects that SPIE has modelled using this technology in
response to calls for tender.

    The innovations introduced by MySPIE 2.0 include real-time 3D
use on the internet. Specially created for SPIE by Bee-Buzziness, the Group's
partner for Web 2.0 technologies for several years, these new MySPIE 2.0
virtual spaces, such as the business park housing the company's headquarters
recreated in 3D on the island, incorporate all the Group's multimedia
resources. These include a virtual library consisting of tactile translucent
panels showing all its corporate and sales publications, videos, websites,
photos, corporate PowerPoint presentations, the book "Birth and Rebirth, a
history of SPIE", written by Jean Monville, former CEO of SPIE.

    Just as in a video game, visitors enter the building and
access the different content displayed on stands, tables, panels and
clickable screens.

    Another innovation is the option to download all the
animations in full HD (with automatic formatting depending on whether the
user has a PC or a Mac) and optimal display quality regardless of the type of
hardware used (from laptop screen to overhead projector in a meeting room).

    "A multimodal communication platform which is undergoing
continuous enhancement, MySPIE is still exploring its many areas of use
ranging from corporate communication through sales communication and
recruitment to the preparation of tenders," says Pascal Omnès, the Group's
Communications Director. "As well as spaces presenting our business lines in
their different environments (industry, local and regional authorities,
infrastructure) and the SPIE headquarters building, which will continue to be
enhanced by new simulations and new spaces to visit, other buildings will
soon be opening their doors in the virtual business park. A convention centre
complete with amphitheatre is due to be inaugurated before the summer. This
will progressively enable future employees, clients and prospects to drop in
and learn more about the Group and its businesses, and will also support
SPIE's participation in trade fairs. The whole point of the links to
community websites (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.) is to encourage our
partners, clients and future employees to keep up to date with the Group's
news via MySPIE."

    spie.com: hand in hand with the Group's firm commitment to the
green economy

    The corporate website http://www.spie.com has also had a facelift!
The new sections enhancing the site include a glossary of definitions that
give a clearer picture of SPIE's activities and business lines, placing them
in a context of environmental policy development. To improve the visibility
of SPIE's achievements, the two sections "Clients" and "Services" overlap -
they highlight the broad diversity of the Group's achievements in each major
business sector (Industry, Local and Regional Authorities, Telecommunications
, etc.) and each major service area (Energy Efficiency, HVAC Engineering,
Renewable Energy, etc.)

    SPIE is simultaneously putting online an optimised version of
this website for mobile phones. The text and sections have been adjusted
accordingly. This format announces the imminent introduction of 2D tags in
the Group's publications, which can be decoded by the latest generation
mobile phones.

    With its new simplified interface and multiple external links,
spie.com is breaking the barriers of the "traditional" corporate website.
Accessible from the homepage, direct links to the major community websites
(Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) allow other web surfers to share the
Group's latest inhouse publications. Similarly, one click is all it takes to
access the entire new version of MySPIE.

    Presented as a slideshow, the media library provides easy and
rapid access to the Group's publications in a multilingual interactive
virtual version: annual reports, corporate brochures, sales brochures,
subsidiary brochures, etc.

    "With our new website, its mobile version and MySPIE 2.0, SPIE
is putting the finishing touches to the main tools in its 2006-2010
e-communication strategy, which goes hand in hand with the development of its
new identity," explains Pascal Omnès, SPIE's Communications Director. "By
implementing new approaches and technologies, SPIE has already reached a much
wider audience than normal and has increased the impact of its publications
tenfold while significantly reducing their impact on the environment. SPIE
has put its money on innovation, consistency and responsibility by leveraging
media convergence (web and print), the creation of an open and consistent
virtual world with all its digital content, the development of accessibility
and the spread of print-on-demand of its publications based on their virtual
online versions."

    About SPIE

engineering, energy and communication systems, SPIE enhances the world around
us by helping local and regional authorities and companies design, build,

Tech Coast Angels Joins $1.6m Investment in HitFix, Unique Content-Driven Entertainment Website

IRVINE, Calif., June 28 -- Tech Coast Angels (TCA), the nation's largest angel investment network, today announced that it has joined the investment of a second round funding of $1.6M in the unique entertainment journalism online resource, HitFix. According to lead TCA investor, Yuri Pikover, "HitFix has such a compelling mix of authoritative and original journalistic content, audience reach, and technology, it perfectly matched our TCA investment 'sweet spot'."  The company, which went live in December of 2008 and generated revenue from its first day, will receive ongoing support and involvement from TCA including the addition of Pikover to the board of directors.

Unlike many entertainment sites and programs that focus primarily on celebrity news and gossip, HitFix calls on the talents of renowned entertainment commentators and journalists such as Alan Sepinwall, Drew McWeeny, Daniel Fienberg and Melinda Newman to produce wide-ranging news, interviews and commentary on all aspects of entertainment. The HitFix site also offers the unique Event Forecast, a localized calendar that allows users to track major events in all categories within their geographic region, sort them by interest, set reminders and download to their calendar, both through the site and iPhone application.

HitFix was founded by industry veterans, Jennifer Sargent, CEO, and Greg Ellwood, Editor-In-Chief. The site is designed for an 18-34 year old demographic and attracts about equal numbers of men and women, unusual in an industry often dominated by female viewers. The company generates revenue through advertising, as well as the syndication of content. It recently hit the major milestone of over one million monthly unique users.

Jennifer Sargent commented, "It was refreshing to get in front of so many savvy investors at once. TCA members understood our content-driven business model immediately. The investment process was fast and efficient, which allowed me to get back to running my business quickly. I'm looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership."

DYMO/Mimio Interactive Teaching Technologies Launches New MimioClassroom(TM) Product Suite

Innovative and Time-Saving New Technologies Enhance the DYMO/Mimio Product Suite, Enabling Teachers to Simply Teach

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 28 -- The new DYMO/Mimio Interactive Teaching Technologies (ITT) company announced today the launch of the MimioClassroom system, an integrated and easy-to-use suite of interactive teaching tools and services tailored-specifically to educators. After much observation, interviews and listening to teachers regarding what they need, the company created the MimioClassroom product suite, a collection of innovative and affordable interactive teaching products, purpose-designed and built to enable teachers to do what they do best: simply teach.

The MimioClassroom suite of easy-to-use, teacher-friendly interactive whiteboard devices, student assessment systems, document cameras, accessories and software seamlessly work together or on their own. The MimioClassroom solution helps educators teach creatively and gives students even more opportunities to interact during their lessons.

"With the new MimioClassroom products, we are continuing our tradition of bringing teachers teaching tools that save them time and reduce hassles while engaging their students - something they have come to expect from us," said Manny Perez, co-founder of DYMO/Mimio ITT. "Our focus is to build products that are easy, fun to use and provide real benefit to the classroom. The technology is simply a means to an end."

This product suite and the company's new name, DYMO/Mimio ITT, both debut today at ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) 2010 in Denver, one of the premier conferences within the education industry. To find out more about DYMO/Mimio ITT at ISTE, please visit mimio.dymo.com/iste2010.

The recently-expanded MimioClassroom family of easy-to-learn and easy-to-use tools includes:

  --  MimioTeach(TM) System - The heart of the MimioClassroom suite, the
      MimioTeach system transforms any dry erase whiteboard into a
      fully-interactive whiteboard to enable interactive learning.
      Rechargeable, wireless and not much bigger than a ruler, the
      MimioTeach system is the company's most advanced, next generation
      interactive whiteboard solution that instantly turns any dry erase
      whiteboard into an interactive whiteboard.  With an integrated stylus
      and user-friendly software, it is easier than ever for teachers to
      use.
  --  MimioVote(TM) Student Assessment System - Inspired by teachers and
      students, the MimioVote system is the easiest, most accurate way for
      teachers to assess student comprehension. The rechargeable MimioVote
      system provides real-time assessment and immediate feedback with
      flexible options designed for the way students think, with intuitive
      software and intelligent auto-illuminated buttons that eliminate
      student error - making assessment, test taking, grading and analysis
      much easier and time efficient for both teachers and students. Plus,
      with devices that are intelligent enough to renumber themselves when
      returned to the tray, this system further reduces common errors in
      today's conventional assessment systems.
  --  MimioView(TM) Document Camera - The model of simplicity, the MimioView
      product is the most integrated and easy to use document camera
      available on the market. MimioView technology and MimioStudio software
      offer useful editing and storage features such as copy, cut, freeze,
      highlight, rotate, save and live video markup and the ability to drop
      images and video into lessons and tests. Roughly the size of a tissue
      box, the MimioView document camera uses a single mini USB cable and
      has one-button activation, autofocus and lighting correction. The
      MimioView camera easily integrates with the MimioTeach and MimioVote
      systems through the universal MimioStudio software.
  --  MimioCapture(TM) Ink Recording System - Considered best-in-class, the
      rechargeable MimioCapture system allows real-time capture of dry erase
      whiteboard notes and drawings. Handwritten notes can be instantly
      transformed into text-based fonts so students can pay attention to the
      subject matter on the board instead of taking notes. Teachers can also
      share notes with students and parents or even incorporate them into
      later lessons.
  --  MimioPad(TM) Wireless Tablet - Slim and light, the MimioPad product is
      a wireless tablet that allows teachers and students to collaborate and
      interact with a MimioTeach-enabled whiteboard from up to 30 feet away.
      The rechargeable MimioPad tablet features 16 shortcut keys for ready
      access to the most popular MimioStudio software features and requires
      no special training for the user.
  --  MimioStudio(TM) 7 Software - With the innovative new MimioStudio 7
      Software, educators can capture, create and present engaging classroom
      content with images, multimedia files and more that can be integrated
      into lesson plans. An easy-to-use Mimio Gallery provides teachers fast
      access to ready-to-use lesson plans, images, objects and content.
      MimioStudio software features drag-and-drop convenience for Flash,
      audio and video files and is compatible with Microsoft PowerPoint and
      Adobe Acrobat, as well as other popular software applications.

UL Developing First-Edition Standard for Wireless Charging Devices and Receivers for Use With Low-Energy Products

UL to Help Manufacturers Make Safety a Focus Among Emerging Wireless Technologies

NORTHBROOK, Ill., June 28 -- Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a world leader in safety testing and certification, is developing a first-edition standard for induction power transmitters and receivers for use with low-energy products. UL 2738 applies to induction power transmitters, such as wireless battery chargers, employing magnetic induction coils that transmit energy to receiving coils in low-energy devices, such as cell phones, portable media players and global positioning devices. The new requirements will not apply to these products powered by the induction transmitters or receivers.

While the popularity of wireless devices has multiplied, so too have extension cords, wires and chargers around the home and office. Ultimate mobility has remained elusive, creating a demand among consumers to eliminate "the last wire." As a result, wireless charging options are rapidly emerging, and wireless power interoperability across rechargeable electronic devices will be expected.

"UL understands the market need for wireless charging options, and is making sure safety stays a primary focus as the technology becomes more commonplace," said Carlos Correia, Vice President, UL High-Tech Division. "Our goal is to help manufacturers consider safety even before they begin the product development phase."

The new proposed UL requirements for induction powered transmitters and receivers for use with low-energy products will apply to:

  --  Induction power transmitters intended to be supplied by a branch
      circuit of 600 volts or less;
  --  Induction receivers intended for use with specific induction power
      transmitters; and
  --  Induction receivers intended for use with induction power transmitters
      conforming to industry accepted interoperability specifications.

Before becoming a standard, these requirements will undergo a comprehensive review process by a global Standards Technical Panel (STP), open to product manufacturers, supply chain personnel, government representatives, consumers, and those responsible for enforcing the requirements of codes or standards. Candidates who would like to be considered for membership on the STP should send their inquiries to Jonette.A.Herman@us.ul.com.

Underwriters Laboratories

UL is an independent product safety certification organization that has been testing products and writing Standards for Safety for more than a century. UL evaluates more than 19,000 types of products, components, materials and systems from more than 66,000 manufacturers each year. In total, there are more than 20 billion UL Marks appearing on products worldwide. UL's global family of companies and network of service providers includes 68 laboratory, testing and certification facilities serving customers in 102 countries.

Teleperformance Launches Fraud Risk Assessment Solution

SALT LAKE CITY, June 28 -- Teleperformance, the world's leading provider of outsourced CRM and contact center services, today announced the launch of its Teleperformance Fraud Risk Assessment Solution, a new service intended to help identify and quantify the business impact of fraud risks within many phases of a call center agent's work.  It reviews processes, applications, daily monitoring and reporting activities to provide a comprehensive assessment of risks.  The primary goal of the Fraud Risk Assessment is to identify detectable vulnerabilities so that they can be removed or to implement early detection indicators for vulnerabilities that cannot be removed.

Teleperformance leads the industry with world-class, award-winning security measures in contact center information defense. Teleperformance Fraud Risk Assessment relies on knowledge of fraud trends, common and known vulnerabilities among client applications, and some of the ways an agent could circumvent controls within an application or process.

The Fraud Risk Assessment Solution includes reviewing a client's past incidents of fraud prior to the program moving to Teleperformance, application vulnerabilities, environmental controls, recruiting, training goals, operation expectations and compliance and regulatory requirements.  Benefits of the discovery can:

  --  Reduce many fraud risks
  --  Provide early warning indicators when the risk cannot be eliminated
  --  Reduce the risk of fraud and data theft
  --  Protect a company's brand from a public data breach
  --  Build a security-conscious culture
  --  Reinforce customer trust and reduce churn
  --  Uncover gaps that may put intellectual property at risk
  --  Inform and improve internal compliance efforts
  --  Improve security and efficiency of data flows
  --  Reduce the risk of regulatory action, fines and lawsuits

Teleperformance's team of security professionals who conduct the Fraud Risk Assessments have extensive training and hold the following credentials:

  --  CISSP Certified Information Systems Security Professional http://www.isc2.org
  --  CFA Certified Fraud Examiner http://www.acfe.com

"Preventing fraud today is more complicated than ever before," said Dominic Dato, executive chairman of Teleperformance USA. "Organized crime has become incredibly sophisticated, with multiple ways of penetrating the contact center, committing fraud and identity theft. The damage to a company's bottom line as well as brand can be staggering.  The Teleperformance Fraud Risk Assessment is a critical first step to mitigating the monetary risk and protecting the brand."

"We're proud to be the leader in contact center security prevention and thrilled to be offering our Clients this superior new program," adds Brent Welch, CEO of Teleperformance USA.  "Teleperformance Fraud Risk Assessment offers an unparalleled approach to fraud prevention, leveraging the world's best talent, technology and processes."

"The Fraud Risk Assessment is another example demonstrating Teleperformance's commitment to offer our clients a program that is typically significantly less at risk than before the Fraud Risk Assessment," said Bruce Wignall, Chief Information Security Officer Teleperformance Group.

The Teleperformance Fraud Risk Assessment is part of a four-phase security-enhancing program.  Proceeding phases include intensive employee selection, thorough employee education, and program launch with anti-fraud controls.

Qualcomm's Brew Mobile Platform Continues to Gain Traction with Support of 3Pre Partners

SAN DIEGO, June 28 -- Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ:QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of wireless technologies, products and services, today announced that its Brew® Mobile Platform (Brew MP(TM)) continues to attract new partners to the Qualcomm-driven 3Pre program. The program provides support to mobile device manufacturers, operators and members of the developer community with a focus on integrating core, pre-loaded applications.

"Qualcomm is committed to advancing the reach of Brew MP, and subsequently delivering richer applications and better experiences to consumers using a range of devices across the world's largest markets," said Mitch Oliver, vice president of ecosystem development for Qualcomm.  "By fostering increased collaboration within the Brew MP ecosystem, we envision many more devices and applications benefiting consumers who desire a more compelling and personal mobile experience all around the world."

Under Qualcomm's 3Pre program, the Company is working with key software providers to optimize, pre-integrate and distribute key software components with the Brew MP operating system, allowing developers to distribute their applications prior to the launch of new handsets in order to reduce development time and cost.  The 3Pre program offers applications from multiple software companies for numerous application categories, including browsers, messaging, navigation and others.  To date, more than 25 companies are participating in the program.  New developers now joining the 3Pre program include: ACCESS, Bluestreak Technology, Cequint, Funambol, Jibe Mobile, PixSense and UIEvolution.

"ACCESS is committed to providing solutions that connect an ever-growing variety of mobile and beyond-PC devices to the Internet.  We're pleased to participate in Qualcomm's 3Pre program," said Kiyo Oishi, executive officer for ACCESS CO., LTD.  "By pre-integrating our NetFront(TM) mobile browser and EMCS MMS 3.0 client and stack with Brew Mobile Platform, we can provide a near-turnkey solution that will help OEMs achieve faster time-to-market and reduced costs, while having the flexibility and customizability they need to deliver competitive products and services."

"Qualcomm's innovative 3Pre community continues to gain momentum and Bluestreak Technology is pleased to incorporate our award-winning MachBlue platform into this ecosystem," said Dominique Jodoin, chief executive officer and president for Bluestreak Technology.  "Having the opportunity to optimize, pre-integrate and distribute our platform with the Brew MP operating system will speed up our time to market for rich media services, including 3-D user interfaces and support for mobile video streaming.  Millions of mobile subscribers currently enjoy user interfaces, applications and web services powered by the MachBlue platform, and we look forward to growing that number as we deploy our platform on more of Qualcomm's leading-edge wireless products in the future."

"Caller ID is a simple application that wireless subscribers value, and Cequint is committed to addressing the OEM integration work required to enable a graceful user experience," said Scott Weller, president for Cequint, Inc.  "Cequint's pre-integration with Brew MP gives us the advantage of scaling across mass-market handsets to best meet the needs of our operator partners."

"Users increasingly expect to access data and media everywhere, including on their mobile phones.  Funambol is pleased to make our open source mobile cloud sync software available on Brew MP, which will enable mobile phones to sync address books, calendars, email, pictures, files and more, with the web, email systems, PCs and social networks," said Fabrizio Capobianco, chief executive officer for Funambol.  "Not only does this make it easy to retrieve data and media on and off phones, but our open source software allows device manufacturers to fully customize the mobile cloud sync capabilities for their market."

"By working closely with Qualcomm and the 3Pre program, Jibe Mobile is able to leverage one of the best mobile operating systems, Brew MP, to help dramatically lower our development and integration efforts," said Amir Sarhangi, chief executive officer for Jibe Mobile.  "More importantly, we are able to address mass market devices and add new features in much shorter development cycles."

"PixSense's white-labeled, mobile social networking platform is driving gains in monthly ARPU and increasing subscriber loyalty for mobile operators around the globe today," said Anurag Mendhekar, chief executive officer for PixSense.  "Working with Brew MP enables us to directly accelerate mobile operators' ability to monetize their investments in 3G and advanced networks, while simultaneously delighting their subscribers with social and community features that naturally become a part of their lives."

"UIEvolution has been working with Qualcomm since the early days of Brew, and with the launch of Brew MP we are able to extend our UIEngine products to deliver a truly compelling mobile experience," said Chris Ruff, chief executive officer of UIEvolution.  "By collaborating closely with Qualcomm, we are able to extend our software products to leverage the new capabilities of multimedia, graphics, windowing, networking and database integration available in Brew MP for our customers, which includes mobile operators, device makers and media companies."

Brew Mobile Platform is a mobile operating system that delivers smartphone functionality across virtually all tiers of devices, including the emerging tier of mass-market smartphones.  The operating system enables advanced capabilities such as touchscreen, rich multimedia, window management, open platform extensibility and expanded support for native application development.  To learn more about Brew MP, visit http://www.brewmp.com.
