RAD's Ethernet Demarcation SFP is Groundbreaking Advancement

NEW YORK, November 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    By introducing a finger-sized and extraordinarily flexible Micro Network Interface
Device, RAD Data Communications [http://www.rad.com ] has changed the rules of the
Ethernet service game.

    (Photo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121108/573736 )

    RAD's new MiNID [http://www.rad.com/10/Ethernet-Demarcation-SFP/24944 ] is a fully
functional and hugely intelligent SFP form-factor solution that plugs into the SFP cage of
any manufacturer's host unit. When an SFP device is inserted into the patent-pending
sleeve, it is transformed into a Carrier Ethernet demarcation and SLA verification device
for remote service monitoring and fault isolation.

    Its compact size makes the MiNID ideal for small cell backhaul applications, virtual
private networks and carrier-wholesale provider network termination.

    "Service providers, wholesale carriers, and mobile operators can maintain service
demarcation and service validation right from the MiNID since it is equipped with Ethernet
demarcation and performance monitoring," explains Amir Karo, RAD's Vice President of
Marketing. "The MiNID also lets them receive real time network and performance reports
with per-Class of Service SLA definition," he notes. "No other manufacturer offers both
capabilities in an SFP device."

    "In addition, the MiNID works with any manufacturer's SFP," Karo adds. "The same MiNID
can be used with single or multi-mode fiber, and also electrical SFPs -up to distances of
10/40/80 kilometers, depending on the SFP," he continues. "Plus, the MiNID fits SFPs
already installed in existing equipment, a tremendous saving and benefit."

    "The MiNID is built entirely from in-house RAD technology," Karo concludes, "so we can
add functionality more easily than manufacturers who may rely on third-party off-the-shelf
technology."

    MiNID handles up to 1 Gbps of Ethernet traffic and features per-port and per-flow
monitoring capabilities, including Ethernet OAM and loopbacks. Requiring no rack space or
external power, it can be remotely managed independently from its hosting device or
integrated with it so that they act together and appear as a single unit.

    About RAD

    RAD Data Communications' access and backhaul solutions lower the total cost of
ownership for carriers, service providers, and mobile operators, as well as for utilities,
transportation and enterprise network communications operations. The company's installed
base exceeds 12,000,000 units and encompasses more than 150 carriers and operators around
the world.

    RAD is a member of the $1.2 billion RAD Group of companies.

Emulex Safe Harbor Statement

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above include forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Emulex wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Those factors include among others, intellectual property claims, with or without merit, that could result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays, require Emulex to indemnify customers, or require Emulex to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may or may not be available. Furthermore, Emulex has in the past obtained, and may be required in the future to obtain, licenses of technology owned by other parties. Emulex cannot be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If Emulex were to fail to obtain such royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, Emulex's business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Ongoing lawsuits, such as the action brought by Broadcom Corporation ("Broadcom"), present inherent risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Emulex's business, financial condition, or results of operations. Such potential risks include continuing expenses of litigation, risk of loss of patent rights and/or monetary damages, risk of injunction against the sale of products incorporating the technology in question, counterclaims, attorneys' fees, incremental costs associated with product or component redesigns, and diversion of management's attention from other business matters. With respect to the Broadcom litigation, such potential risks also include the availability of an adequate sunset period of time to make design changes, the ability to implement any design changes, the availability of customer resources to complete any re-qualification or re-testing that may be needed, the ability to maintain favorable working relationships with Emulex suppliers of serializer/deserializer (SerDes)  modules and the ability to obtain a settlement that does not put Emulex at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, the fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. The current economic downturn and the resulting disruptions in world credit and equity markets that are creating economic uncertainty for Emulex's customers and the storage networking market as a whole has, and could, continue to adversely affect Emulex's revenues and results of operations. Furthermore, the effect of any actual or potential unsolicited offers to acquire Emulex may have an adverse effect on Emulex's operations. As a result of these uncertainties, Emulex is unable to predict its future results with any accuracy. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: faster than anticipated decline in the storage networking market; slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of Emulex's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate Emulex products into their systems; Emulex's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, decrease in or delays of orders by any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make timely payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of Emulex products or Emulex OEM customers' new or enhanced products; costs associated with entry into new areas of the storage technology market; the variability in the level of Emulex's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of Emulex's customers; any inadequacy of Emulex's intellectual property protection and the costs of actual or potential third-party claims of infringement and any related indemnity obligations or adverse judgments; impairment charges, including but not limited to goodwill and intangible assets; changes in tax rates or legislation; the effects of acquisitions; the effects of terrorist activities; natural disasters, such as the earthquake and resulting tsunami off the coast of Japan in March 2011 and the significant flooding in various parts of Thailand in October 2011, and any resulting disruption in Emulex's supply chain or customer purchasing patterns or any other resulting economic or political instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for Emulex products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effects of changes in Emulex's business model to separately charge for software; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end or mezzanine card products; a faster than anticipated decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of Emulex products; delays in product development; Emulex's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; Emulex's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; Emulex's ability to benefit from research and development activities; Emulex's dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; changes in accounting standards; and the potential effects of global warming and any resulting regulatory changes on Emulex's business. These and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are also discussed in Emulex's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its recent filings on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q.

TurfMutt Science Program from Discovery Education and OPEI Foundation Adds Family-Focused Activities to Help Children Explore and Appreciate Green Spaces

-- Classrooms across the U.S. invited to enter the second annual 'Spruce Up Your School' Sweepstakes for a chance to win $5,000 toward better outdoor space --

SILVER SPRING, Md. and ALEXANDRIA, Va., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Discovery Education and the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute's Education and Research Foundation today announced a series of new educational and activity features for TurfMutt, a science-based program featuring standards-aligned curriculum, which teaches K-5 students how things grow, the value of personal and community outdoor space and how to tend to them in a sustainable way.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121108/PH08564LOGO )

A redesigned website (TurfMutt.com) allows TurfMutt to reach both educators and families through an expanded digital experience, including:

    --  A new "Families" Page shares the importance of backyards, parks, school
        yards and other community outdoor spaces, and presents ideas on how to
        foster healthy growth. The page includes family-focused activity guides,
        such as creating an outdoor compost area, collecting rainwater,
        attracting birds and going on a carbon footprint scavenger hunt.
    --  An updated TurfMutt "Educators Page" with expanded lesson plans and
        activities for elementary teachers to implement with their students.
    --  A new "TurfMutt Blog" on the home page, presenting a range of
        information and resources to help families and students care for and
        enjoy their outdoor green spaces.
To help drive value and raise awareness of TurfMutt, Discovery Education and OPEI will also collaborate to create a Public Service Announcement (PSA) to air in local markets and online that talks about the importance of caring for green spaces in a sustainable way.

"TurfMutt has evolved into a turn-key educational program for both schools and home," said Kris Kiser, president and CEO of OPEI. "K-5 teachers and families can access expanded activities and resources to encourage outdoor exploration and tips on how to care for backyards, parks, school yards and personal green space in communities across the country."

Discovery Education and OPEI are also launching the second annual "Spruce Up Your School" sweepstakes in which educators can enter to win a $5,000 grant to expand or develop their school's outdoor space. The annual national sweepstakes is aimed at K-5 educators across the country.  Last year, Ms. Mary Anne Arabia's fifth grade class from Palomar Elementary School in Chula Vista, Calif., was named the Grand Prize winner and received a $5,000 grant, which was used to provide much-needed shade and seating by planting trees and installing benches in their school's outdoor play area.

"The TurfMutt program has had an incredible influence and reach in schools across the country, already with approximately one million students impacted since its inception in 2011," said Mary Rollins, Discovery Education vice president. "We are pleased to continue building and expanding on this partnership alongside OPEI as we encourage students to explore their curiosity in the environment that surrounds them every day."

The TurfMutt program continues to earn accolades for its outreach efforts. The Department of Education's Green Ribbon Schools and the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Environmental Education Program - Teacher Resources and Lessons Plans websites list the TurfMutt program as a valued educational resource.

Remington Launches Innovative Mobile Commerce Site

LONDON, November 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Spectrum Brands, a global consumer products company with market-leading brands,
announced today that an mCommerce enabled, mobile-optimised version of its UK personal
care Remington website has been launched.

    Designed and built by leading mobile marketing agency, Incentivated
[http://www.incentivated.com ], the site is a transcoded version of the brand's desktop
website, providing access to the full range of Remington products from hair dryers to
electric shavers.

    The innovation for this transcoded site (http://uk.remington-europe.mobi) comes
through the UI and UX brought to life through template designs and menu structures.
Echoing the design elements of the website, Incentivated have enabled dynamic,
split-screen image-based menus, using swipe gestures for intuitive interactivity and ease
of searching and browsing through the site.

    The split screen allows for Remington "hero" products to be promoted - and for these
heroes to be dynamically updated as offers change or new products are released. Because
the site is transcoded, any content changes made to the website are automatically fed
through to the mobile site without any further editing being needed.

    Secure integrated payment technology allows product purchases to be completed through
the mobile-optimised checkout.

    Katie McLean, European Digital Manager, Spectrum Brands: "We are pleased to be able to
bring our products to our customers through their mobile devices. Presenting a
cookie-cutter site to our customers was never an option for Remington. They, and we, are
more sophisticated than that and we are delighted to be able to provide them with a fully
transactional site that maintains our brand integrity."

    Jonathan Bass, Managing Director, Incentivated: "Mobile is fundamentally different
from desktop browsers and you can't just pare down a site to 'make it work' for mobile.
Being able to deliver this site for Remington which pays as much respect to their brand
and the design challenge in providing customers with an experience that works with the
phone's capabilities and strengths, such as the swipe for touchscreen phones and 'click to
call' buttons.

    We believe this is another great example of a company understanding that mobile is
critical to their future success, but not compromising their brand in order to deliver for
their customers."

British Airways new 'Skylab' Uses iTrinegy Network Emulation

CAMBRIDGE, England and RENO, Nevada, November 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    British Airways selected iTrinegy's network emulation technology for their 'Skylab', a
major hub for testing all their back-office and front-end networked applications.

    'Skylab' is the responsibility of the Networks Team based at British Airway's
[http://www.britishairways.com/travel/about-british-airways/public/en_gb ] main offices in
Waterside, UK. With business processes such as flight preparedness, aircraft readiness,
flight load control, baggage protections, etc., being delivered over the British Airways
data network, ensuring everything runs smoothly is of prime importance.

    Ian Matthars, Senior Network Infrastructure Engineer at British Airways comments, "Sky
Lab is at the hub for testing all the network integrations involving our back-office and
front-end networked applications. We don't leave anything to chance - before an
application can go live we thoroughly test for all the variables experienced in
'real-world' live networks, including conditions such as latency, loss, delay and jitter.
These conditions can impact any application, and with our new front-end check-in/seating
system for agents and customers, it's essential that we guarantee a good experience for
all".

    Ian and his team purchased iTrinegy's INE LCD
[http://www.itrinegy.com/index.php/products/network-emulators/ine-lcd ] network emulator to
replicate the network and all the associated network conditions. "As applications continue
to increase in size and complexity, the performance of applications in standard networks
and their associated conditions can be limiting and unsuitable for our applications."
Frank Puranik, Product Director at iTrinegy comments "Our network emulators enable
companies like British Airways to fully understand how applications work no matter what
the application or what type of network conditions they need to run in."

    Ian continues "Network emulators
[http://www.itrinegy.com/index.php/products/network-emulators/ine-lcd ]allow us to create
the worst kind of networks, and seeing how our applications behave allows us to make sure
our systems work no matter where in the world our networks, staff and customers are
located and INE LCD continues to be an important part of our network testing within our
Skylab."

    iTrinegy's [http://www.itrinegy.com ] INE LCD Network Emulator is a portable appliance
that is well suited to this type of task as it enables the user to see how an application
or device will work in a realistic replication of environments such as WAN, Cloud, Mobile,
Wireless and Satellite networks etc., prior to actual deployment. Its ability to mimic
characteristics such restricted bandwidth, link speed, latencies, jitter and packet loss
etc. means that the user will be able to quickly identify how these factors can affect
application behaviour.

    About British Airways: British Airways is the country's largest airline, based on

Trend Micro Managed Service Provider Program Facilitates Channel Partners' Journey to the Cloud

CUPERTINO, Calif. and ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), the global leader in cloud security, is leading the way in helping small and medium businesses (SMBs) and value-added resellers (VARS) transition to the managed service provider (MSP) business model.  Today, Trend Micro announces updates to the managed service provider program, solution integration into ConnectWise, and a new PartnerPlus Portal to facilitate this managed service provider (MSP) transition.

"There is huge opportunity for growth in the managed service provider market.  Trend Micro's priority is to help our partners prosper by delivering security solutions and tools that allow them to gain efficiency and keep their customers' data safe.  Along with the new updates to our MSP program we will continue to make enhancements so partners can successfully transition some or all of their business to a cloud-based service model while they simultaneously manage their traditional install base," said Magi Diego, director, SMB Marketing at Trend Micro.

Trend Micro MSP Program Supports Channel Partners' Transition to the Cloud and Managed Services

    --  Trend Micro MSP solutions uniquely enable MSP partners to automatically
        license, monitor and manage both traditional on-premise as well as
        cloud-based security solutions from a single management console,
        providing the flexibility to migrate to the cloud at their own pace.
        With this single login MSP partners can provision, deploy, manage, and
        report on their entire customer base, both cloud and on-premise.
    --  The MSP solutions are now available in 22 languages.
    --  MSP partners are able to manage annual and monthly recurring licenses
        together, aiding the move from an annual renewal-based business model to
        a recurring-revenue annuity business model.
Trend Micro MSP Solutions are Now Integrated into ConnectWise

    --  Trend Micro helps increase automation and scalability through a direct
        integration with ConnectWise to automate billing, ticketing and
        reporting.
    --  The cloud-based provisioning, deployment, management, monitoring, and
        reporting solutions provided by Trend Micro eliminate setup/startup
        costs associated with on-boarding of managed services clients.
    --  Trend Micro's broad platform support (Windows, Mac, Android) and Trend
        Micro(TM) Worry-Free Business Security product-family options (WFBS
        Services, Standard, Advanced, and Hosted Email Security) provide more
        revenue- generating opportunities for MSP partners.
"The Trend Micro MSP program tools help our security business, particularly as it relates to the state of licenses and updates -- we never had the ability to manage our clients at this level and it has made us much more efficient," said Michael Beecher, president, EscapeWire Solutions.

Trend Micro's New PartnerPlus Portal is Now Available in the USA

The new PartnerPlus Portal, designed specifically to support Trend Micro partners growing their security practice, serves as the central hub for sales tools, training, certification, on-demand marketing, announcements, promotions, webinars, and much more. The new portal provides:

    --  Enhanced ease of use
    --  Updated product information and collateral
    --  A unique "My Account" feature which provides direct access to sales
        opportunities, programs and reports
The PartnerPlus Portal will fully support the new upcoming Trend Micro PartnerPlus Program, a program that offers several unique features and benefits to help Trend Micro partners grow their business. The program enhancements coming soon include:

    --  Simplicity-- Trend Micro is changing the partner-level naming
        convention. The new PartnerPlus tiers will become Bronze, Silver, Gold,
        and Platinum. As partners progress up through partner levels, it will be
        easier for them to increase their knowledge of Trend Micro solutions,
        and gain a wealth of benefits.
    --  Training & Education-- Comprehensive online and classroom-based training
        courses will be offered to strengthen partners' technical expertise,
        increase their industry recognition, help accelerate the sales
        process--and their revenues. This will all be available through the new
        PartnerPlus Portal.
    --  Specializations--Trend Micro will offer specialization certifications in
        cloud-based security, small business security, and managed security
        services. Being a specialized Trend Micro partner opens the doors to
        extra benefits, which can include preferred listing on the Trend Micro
        partner locator, deal registration, priority lead pass, and more.
The PartnerPlus Program enhancements will be effective Q1 2013.

Navman Wireless Plans New Add-on for FMCSA Compliance with Paperless Driver Logs & Driver Vehicle Inspection Applications from ISE

New Option Launching in Early 2013 for OnlineAVL2 Fleet Tracking System

GLENVIEW, Ill., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Navman Wireless USA today announced an agreement with Innovative Software Engineering (ISE) that will equip fleet managers using the Navman Wireless OnlineAVL2 fleet tracking system with easy-to-use paperless driver logs and driver vehicle inspection reporting (DVIR) applications to comply with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Association (FMCSA) regulations. The new option - achieved via integration with the eFleetSuite compliance package from Innovative Software Engineering (ISE) - will be available in the U.S. in early 2013.

When the joint deployment goes live, eFleetSuite will be displayed on Navman Wireless M-Nav in-cab touchscreen navigation/messaging terminals for instant driver access and roadside inspection, as well as available through any Internet browser for office use. eFleetSuite has been customized to seamlessly integrate with the workflow of the OnlineAVL2 system.

Use of ISE's Electronic Driver Logs with OnlineAVL2 will automate Hours of Service reporting per FMCSA regulations Part 395, section 15 and will:

    --  Allow drivers to sign on through their M-Nav unit using their existing
        driver IDs
    --  Automatically record Hours of Service status information, based on
        detection of vehicle motion, as well as capture vehicle location and
        miles driven
    --  Automatically calculate remaining driver availability
    --  Provide driver log history for roadside inspectors with a tap on the
        M-Nav screen
    --  Enable dispatchers to view driver logs, including violations, driver
        time, mileage summaries and driver availability, through an ISE link in
        OnlineAVL2
Use of ISE's Electronic Driver Vehicle Inspection Reporting with OnlineAVL2 will enable drivers to electronically record the results of pre- and post-trip inspections per FMCSA regulations Part 396, section 11 and 13 and will:

    --  Automatically prompt drivers to review the previous inspection when they
        log on to the M-Nav
    --  Allow drivers to report needed repairs and deficiencies for each power
        unit and attached trailer(s) using their M-Nav display
    --  Enable customization of parts lists and common defects descriptions  to
        speed driver  documentation
    --  Display reports for roadside inspectors with a tap on the M-Nav screen
    --  Allow maintenance technicians to review reports, enter notes, and
        certify that repairs have been made through an ISE link in OnlineAVL2
Fleets will benefit from reduced paperwork; increased back-office visibility to driver hours for better resource utilization and load planning; and immediate notification of vehicle defects enabling more efficient scheduling, faster repairs and less downtime.

From a compliance perspective, fleets will ensure proper documentation for roadside inspections; fewer roadside-related driver violations resulting in lower compliance, safety and accountability (CSA) scores; and automated workflow ensuring that driver vehicle inspection reports are not skipped.

"Penalties for non-compliance with FMCSA regulations are high. Driver and fleet fines are costly, fleets can be shut down for continued poor performance, and insurance rates can increase with poor CSA scores," said Renaat Ver Eecke, Vice President and General Manager, Navman Wireless North America. "Partnering with ISE will help our customers avoid these problems, increase driver productivity through automated documentation, and provide real-time visibility for back-office personnel into driver and vehicle status for increased operational efficiency."

"eFleetSuite was specifically designed to provide telematics providers with off-the-shelf electronic driver log and DVIR applications that can be quickly implemented as well as customized to each partner's needs," said ISE President Hass Machlab. "By selecting eFleetSuite as its FMSCA compliance platform, Navman Wireless is equipping its customers with the tools to improve safety, lower their CSA scores, and streamline the process of conforming to FMSCA requirements."

The partnership is the latest in a series of Navman Wireless initiatives to integrate best-in-class third-party applications with the OnlineAVL2 platform, providing key add-on functionality requested by customers in a timely manner. Other integrated services to date include speed monitoring, multi-stop route optimization and trucking management through partnerships with SpeedGauge, Dashfly and McLeod Software, respectively.

Skype(TM) Launches New Online Platform for Small Businesses

Skype in the workspace designed to help businesses connect and grow.

LONDON and PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Skype today launched to the public Skype in the workspace (SITW), a new online platform for small businesses to instantly connect with potential customers, partners and suppliers across the globe.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO)

The free-to-use tool makes use of the huge network already offered by Skype, allowing millions of small businesses to promote their products and services to new networks and connections. Users can improve existing connections and establish new ones by instantly sending messages and talking to or meeting face-to-face with peers and business prospects over Skype.

The SITW community is already active because today's launch comes at the end of a six-month beta trial, which enabled 500 businesses, offering more than 140 different services, to sign up, try out and test the platform.

"With more than 280 million connected users each month, Skype offers a huge range of contacts for the small-business community," said Ural Cebeci, head of SMB Marketing at Skype. "We aim to connect millions of small businesses with Skype in the workspace and believe that, by taking advantage of this shared network, businesses can develop the range of tools they need to grow, regardless of location or industry. From the designer in San Francisco looking to source textile suppliers in Thailand to the London consultant connecting with clients in Milan, the possibilities are endless."

SITW will provide a central hub for entrepreneurs, startups and small businesses to connect with experts,coaches and consultants who can help them develop their businesses. Users join the community using their existing Skype accounts, then through a series of promotional tools can create public "offers" or "opportunities" inviting community members to live sessions on Skype to demonstrate services or products to a wider audience. Users can also book appointments with potential customers or suppliers and keep track of them with a meeting notification service. When an opportunity is over, users can instantly give testimonials on the product or service offered.

"Small businesses are the backbone of the U.S. economy," Cebeci said. "For these businesses to survive and grow in what is still a tough economic climate, we understand that good communication and connections are key to their success.

"This is why today we are opening the Skype in the workspace platform to the public," Cebeci said. "We feel we're helping connect businesses face-to-face with their customers and prospects, no matter where they are located. It opens up a world of opportunity for them."

Alison Coward, an avid user of Skype and owner of the London creative collaboration agency Bracket, said, "Skype in the workspace is a real breakthrough. It's the perfect platform for me to promote my business and connect with the people who can help it to grow. My business is about getting in front of people and helping them to solve their problems. With Skype in the workspace, I am visible to quality leads without even leaving the office. With no travel time to contend with, it's also now far more feasible for me to grow my business outside the U.K. into Europe and the U.S."

Jorge Parra, an avid user of Skype and owner of Florida-based Jorge Parra photography, said, "There's a big difference between a professional network and a social network, and Skype in the workspace seems to understand this distinction. It is the perfect companion to my existing online presence and generates connections that will actually bring me business."

Cindy Bidar, owner of All Quality Websites, a U.S. startup providing expert advice on how to design, build and maintain an online presence, added, "Skype in the workspace has offered something other online platforms couldn't -- a community of business-focused individuals who can explore my services and interact with me in real time."

SITW is available to all Skype users starting today. Those wanting to sign up for the community can register their details here.

Founded in 1975, Microsoft (Nasdaq "MSFT") is the worldwide leader in software, services and solutions that help people and businesses realize their full potential.

KosherLab.com Connects New Kosher Brands to a Thriving Online Community Just in Time for Kosherfest 2012

Ajax Union launches new kosher website that connects new and established kosher brands to a vast online community of kosher buyers, bloggers, and businesses.

NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Keep it kosher with Kosher Lab, a brand new website from Ajax Union that offers kosher products just hitting the market or established products valuable exposure to a vast online community of established bloggers and foodies. The website, now available at http://www.KosherLab.com, features the newest developments in all things kosher including meat, wine, hummus, music, and entertainment.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121108/PH08623LOGO )

"Our goal for Ajax Union has always been to give companies the opportunity to succeed, especially with online marketing and getting their name out there to bring in business. With Kosher Lab, we would like to extend that philosophy to companies that exclusively deal with kosher products. We want to give kosher-focusing companies, no matter how big or small, an online presence and an outlet to reach the right consumers," said Joe Apfelbaum, CEO of Ajax Union and the Kosher Lab website.

This multifaceted kosher experience is designed to promote making connections through kosher-dedicated products and companies. Spotlighting the latest kosher brands and displaying them in one convenient location, this networking initiative links startup brands to kosher experts and buyers all across the web. This kind of exposure can greatly benefit the latest products by putting them in contact directly with top online kosher entities including buyers and distributors.

Kosher business owners looking to gain exposure on Ajax Union's new site can visit http://www.KosherLab.com/Advertise for more information. Filling out one simple form can get businesses started on immediately connecting to their target kosher audience.

The launch of Kosher Lab coincides with two major kosher marketing events happening in November. The first, the Kosher Food Blogger Conference, brings together the top vendors, bloggers, and readers in the kosher industry today. The event will headline a talk given by Ajax Union CEO Joe Apfelbaum. His SEO tips and tricks, followed by a Q & A session, will inform businesses on how to make a positive impact through online marketing.  He will also be spotlighting the brands on KosherLab.com to hundreds of bloggers in the audience, giving them additional publicity outside of the site. Business owners can sign up now online for this affordable service before the November 12 blogger conference to have their brands featured here as well. It will be held at the Millesime in The Carlton Hotel in New York City.

The second major event coinciding with the launch of KosherLab.com is the premier exhibition Kosherfest 2012, which takes place on November 13 and 14 in Secaucus, New Jersey. Custom landing pages on KosherLab.com can also boost visibility for exhibitors at Kosherfest 2012.  Leading kosher distributors such as Osem USA Inc., The Kedem Group, Blue and White Foods, and Manischewitz Company will all be in attendance. Without the proper publicity, however, smaller businesses won't reap the benefits of exhibiting alongside these companies. Using a variety of SEO and online marketing tools, a landing page on KosherLab.com increases the chances that interested bloggers and kosher distributors will visit your company's booth on the days of the festival. Over 325 exhibitors will be in attendance at this sold out trade show including Ajax Union, which will be manning Booth #747 both days.

"Launching KosherLab.com in time for this year's Kosherfest just happened to be an ideal opportunity for us to get the site going with some of our clients that will be exhibiting and gaining additional coverage from KosherLab.com during the two-day event. This is such a great opportunity for them to promote their company and brand, and it is such a great opportunity to reach out online," said Certified Google Trainer Joe Apfelbaum.

Not attending Kosherfest this year? Not a problem. Even brands just starting out with kosher marketing can find success by signing up for a custom landing page through KosherLab.com. Ideal for businesses without a website or any social media presence, this regularly updated page can help create exposure to bloggers, buyers, and distributors across a multitude of sites. Brands will find success after being connected to blogs like http://www.BusyInBrooklyn.com, which boasts tens of thousands of visitors monthly.

Business owners and entrepreneurs can connect to their target kosher audience by visiting http://www.KosherLab.com/Advertise and signing up to receive more information about an affordable and effective landing page.

Phone.com Offers Free Accounts To Businesses In New Jersey Affected By Superstorm 'Sandy'

Hosted telephony provider can help hard-hit SMBs, SOHOs return to operation

LIVINGSTON, N.J., Nov. 8,  2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Phone.com, Inc., a provider of VoIP and cloud-based telephone service specializing in small-sized businesses and home offices (SOHO), today announced it is offering free accounts for service for up to one year to as many as 100 businesses in New Jersey that have been affected by Superstorm Sandy.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121002/NY84926LOGO )

Even if their own brick-and-mortar locations are in disrepair, businesses whose office communications hardware or systems have been knocked out by storm-related coastal surge, rain, wind or other damage from Sandy can take advantage of accounts with Phone.com to re-establish their presence with their customers.

"SMBs and SOHOs can stay viable and remain in business if they maintain a telephone presence despite having their buildings wiped out, unusable during repair or left without electrical power for weeks at a time, and that's where Phone.com can help," said Ari Rabban, co-founder and CEO.  "As a New Jersey business, we're making our offer to as many as 100 fellow business people in the Garden State."

Each free, one-year Phone.com account would include free calling minutes for 12 months and in switching their numbers to Phone.com's hosted service, affected businesses retain their existing telephone numbers so that to callers they appear in business as usual.

"We would require a business name, address and owner contact information, and we would need a credit card for incidental expenses," said Rabban, who recently joined the board of directors of the New Jersey Technology Council.

Businesses can sign up for free Phone.com accounts at its website - http://www.phone.com/products/sandy/ - and using the code "SANDY," or by calling 1-800-514-7987 toll-free.

With Phone.com, as long as a business has a "cloud-based" telephone number, calls can always be received even if power to a building fails.  It doesn't matter what device a business person has, or where he or she is located, because Phone.com's advanced calling rules allow any phone number to ring a VoIP land line, mobile phone, copper-wire line or tablet-based "soft" phone simultaneously.  So an SMB's entire workforce can work remotely and be reachable, appearing to customers as if the company is open for business as usual.

Additionally:

    --  The options are user controlled via browser, including by smartphone, so
        call-routing arrangements can be dynamic, based on need.
    --  Calls can easily be forwarded to other areas, away from storm-affected
        areas. So if a building is shut down, other people in a different
        location can answer calls.
    --  If cable broadband and copper landlines are down, business people can
        use Phone.com with a "soft" phone on their PCs, tablets or smartphones
        with Wi-Fi and remain in operation.
About Phone.com
Phone.com® is a cloud-based phone company offering a variety of innovative and economical business and home phone services for entrepreneurs, home offices, small businesses and individuals. Powered by advanced VoIP technologies, the company offers Phone.com Virtual Office for small businesses, Phone.com Virtual Number for individuals on the go, Phone.com Home Phone Plus for consumers and Phone.com Mobile Office and Mobile VoIP.

N-Play Announces First Real Estate Marketing Platform for Facebook

Agent-centric marketing solution targets listing ads to buyers on Facebook for as little as $2 dollars per day

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- N-Play, a company that offers agent-centric real estate applications, announced today the first turnkey solution for agents to market themselves and their listings on Facebook. The company has developed a real estate ad platform that interfaces with Facebook's ad platform providing agents a simple, low cost and highly effective social media marketing solution.

Listing display advertisements are automatically generated for the agent as they add listings to their agent profiles on Facebook. Through its interface to the Facebook ad platform, the service automatically targets the ads based on location, Facebook user data and proprietary algorithms. The agent can select up to six listing ads per campaign and instantly launch ads on Facebook. Buyers clicking on any listing ad are linked back to the respective detail page and to the agent's Directory profile on Facebook. Daily campaign budgets can be created for as little as $2.00 per day delivering thousands of targeted impressions.

"Each day people spend more time on Facebook than anywhere else on the internet," said Raina Van Cleave, Director of Marketing for N-Play. "Targeting buyers on Facebook is a goldmine for agents. By combining advertising services with the viral ecosystem we've created for Directory members, our platform is second to none for agents to market themselves and connect with customers," she said.

Agents must first become members of the Real Estate Agent Directory on Facebook to advertise their real estate services on Facebook. The Directory is a search service for consumers and real estate professionals. Consumers can find agents who are on Facebook by location and expertise in over 7,500 U.S. cities.

Since its launch last year, 125,000 agents have joined the Directory by adding their profiles and listings, and linking the Directory to their Facebook business pages. In select markets, agents can add Home Search, an IDX-compliant search service. Agents' listings are automatically imported and consumers can search for a home directly on an agents' Facebook page.

Representatives from N-Play are attending the REALTORS® Conference & Expo in Orlando. Conference attendees interested in the learning more about N-Play's services on Facebook should contact:

Budge Revolutionizes Charitable Giving With The Launch Of Mobile Micro-Donation App

Harnessing the power of social networks for good, Budge debuts a simple, fun way to donate to charity on your iPhone

NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Budge, the only social, mobile micro-donation platform, today announced the launch of its new iPhone application that provides a fun, simple way to donate to charity. With Budge, users challenge their friends to everyday activities or play the games they already love on behalf of a meaningful cause. The loser of the challenge then donates a preset micro-donation to one of a handful of relevant charities.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121108/SF08681LOGO)

"Budge was born out of our vision that giving to charity should be a fun and super easy process," said Hillan Klein, CEO and co-founder, Budge. "With this goal in mind, we set out to build a new culture in charitable giving specifically aimed at Gen Y by combining social gaming with micro-donations. We want to educate people that it's okay to give in small amounts--casual deeds can truly have a meaningful impact."

Budge disrupts traditional roadblocks to philanthropy by encouraging people to use their regular daily activities and interactions with friends as a way to donate to charity. In doing so, Budge has created a simple and engaging way for people to support the causes they care about.

A strong focus has been to create a beautiful and easy to use platform that people will enjoy using. Once downloaded, users can easily invite or find friends through Facebook, or simply connect with those who are already using the app. From there, it takes only a few seconds to create a "budge," select a charity and challenge their friends. "Budges" can be anything - a game of chess, meeting for coffee, a pizza-eating contest, you name it. The winning "budge" can be published to Facebook, with the loser donating to charity. To better promote the social act of giving, the app features a "like" feature as well as a news feed for following friends' actions.

After a successful beta launch, Budge currently has members actively "budging" and donating in the United States and Australia. To date, the company has raised $1 million in funding from influential investors in Australia including Square Peg Ventures; Tony Faure, former CEO of Yahoo!SouthAsia, NineMSN and chairman of Pollenizer; and Matt Rockman, co-founder of SEEK.com.au. Additionally, the company has cultivated partnerships with key nonprofits including African Services, BreastCancer.org, EngenderHealth, Envirolution, National MS Society (NY Chapter), The United Nations World Food Program USA and READ Global.

"Budge is creating a cultural shift in micro-philanthropy," said Paul Bassatt, principal, Square Peg Ventures. "Currently, charitable giving is at an inflection point--struggling to engage younger generations while also grappling with how best to revive a stagnant industry. With its seamless social mobile user experience, we think Budge will help power this new era of philanthropy and we're excited to be part of this opportunity."

Budge is available for free from the App Store.

About Budge

Budge is a private, venture-backed mobile micro-donation platform that makes giving to charity fun. Budge allows people to play with their friends and give to charity at the same time. Budge is available for free in the App Store. For more information, please visit http://www.thebudge.com.
