Verdiem Introduces VBOX and Releases Fall Edition

Integrates IT Energy Management with Building Management Systems for Smart Buildings

SEATTLE, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Verdiem, a leader in IT energy management software, today introduced Verdiem VBOX, the first IT energy management appliance, in conjunction with the release of Verdiem Surveyor Fall Edition 2012. VBOX is a fully integrated software and hardware solution for an easy, quick and affordable deployment.

With the Fall Edition, Verdiem is also releasing Connect for Smart Buildings, a solution that integrates IT energy management with building management systems (BMS). Connect for Smart Buildings provides facilities and energy managers with visibility and control across facility equipment (heating, ventilation, air conditioning, lighting, security, etc.) and IT devices for comprehensive energy management to significantly reduce energy waste.

In addition, Verdiem expands its leading energy management analytics with new role-based dashboards that deliver key summary information on energy savings as well as the ability to drill down to uncover more detailed insights in order to optimize energy savings.

"Energy is an expensive and essential resource. The fact that demand is rising and supply is constrained is driving interest in energy management technologies," said Andrew Donoghue, eco-efficient IT analyst at 451 Research. "Verdiem is well placed to benefit from this trend by offering solutions that provide a holistic view of enterprise IT energy consumption. Companies can make substantial reductions in energy use and cost across both IT and facilities by using the kind of monitoring and control software developed by suppliers such as Verdiem."

"Verdiem has spent more than 10 years innovating in the world of IT energy management," said John Scumniotales, president and CEO of Verdiem. "We have deep IT experience and our solution is proven for both large distributed enterprises and small single location organizations. Due to its easy deployment and fast time to realize savings, the new VBOX reflects the growing demand for energy efficiency solutions in the mid-market, particularly in the education, government, and non-profit hospital sectors, as these organizations are under significant budget pressure and can save jobs by cutting energy waste."

VBOX ACCELERATES TIME TO VALUE

For many mid-market organizations with limited IT resources, it can take months to get a server purchased or a virtual machine provisioned to support a new software solution. Within days, a Verdiem VBOX can be purchased and deployed. VBOX is a turnkey IT energy management appliance that accelerates Verdiem's industry leading time-to-value. Based on a standard 1u server, VBOX is pre-packaged and configured with all necessary components including the Verdiem Surveyor Fall Edition. With the solution, organizations benefit from up to 60% savings in IT energy costs for PCs, Macs, IP phones, switches/routers, and other Power-over-Ethernet devices. Customers typically achieve ROI in 6-12 months, and less if utility rebates are available. In addition, IT can more securely and reliably manage the PC fleet with a 90%+ success rate in waking-up PCs for software updates and patch management with network-friendly Wake-on-WAN technology.

CONNECT FOR SMART BUILDINGS BRIDGES FACILITIES AND IT

Traditional divisions of labor between facilities and IT are impediments to effective energy management. In today's world, where buildings include Ethernet-ready devices connected directly to corporate networks and energy requirements are on the rise, the need for a convergence between IT and facilities energy management is becoming ever more critical. The new network-ready smart building is opening up opportunities for integration and innovation for enterprise-wide energy management that provides visibility and control across facilities and IT devices.

Verdiem's Connect for Smart Buildings integrates building management systems with Surveyor Fall Edition via a web service application-programming interface (API). Facilities and energy managers have visibility and control over the electrical power of the entire enterprise inclusive of the distributed IT device plug load. In addition, Connect for Smart Buildings enables facilities and IT to collaborate on smart building and demand shedding scenarios, allowing the BMS to change policies and effect near real-time changes to IT device power consumption. For example, an aggressive energy saving policy could be applied to lower IT's energy draw in order to meet other energy demands on campus or across the smart grid.

SHINE THE LIGHT ON ENERGY WASTE

With the Fall Edition, Verdiem extends its leadership in energy management analytics with Verdiem Dashboards. The role-based dashboards provide actionable information to the stakeholders in IT energy management including executives, facility/energy managers, sustainability officers, and IT professionals. The Summary Dashboard delivers an at-a-glance view into the organization's total energy savings and corresponding reductions in energy consumption and CO2 emissions. 

For IT and energy managers, the Details Dashboard provides a breakdown of energy savings and consumption by attributes such as location, group, device type, and power saving policy. For deeper insights, they can leverage Verdiem Analytics - the built-in business intelligence reporting engine. Enhancements in Verdiem Analytics include the ability to drill down to an individual device's energy profile and to report its energy consumption in 15 minute increments, further extending Verdiem's leading measurement accuracy. With these powerful analytics capabilities, energy managers can uncover areas of waste to be converted into additional savings through better optimized power policies.

During deployment and ongoing operations, IT can utilize the Status Dashboard for visibility at the device-level to track progress and identify any health issues such as devices not reporting energy information. IT can also flag devices that are underutilized and therefore possible candidates for elimination, consolidation or virtualization.

About Verdiem

Verdiem helped define the PC power management market and has now extended its leadership into IT energy management software. Verdiem enables customers to centrally control and reduce the energy used by PCs, Macs, and network devices running Cisco EnergyWise without impacting end users. More than 700 corporations, government agencies and universities have deployed Surveyor on over 2 million devices. Most customers experience ROI within six to 12 months. Based in Seattle, Verdiem is backed by Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. More information is available at http://www.verdiem.com.

LANDesk Raises the Bar with Release of Integrated Systems and Security Management Suites

Patented Innovations in LANDesk Management Suite and Security Suite enable IT to Maximize Productivity while Reducing Cost, Complexity and Risk

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- (Gartner ITxpo) -- LANDesk Software, a global leader in integrated systems and asset management, endpoint security , end-to-end  mobility, virtualization management and user-oriented IT service management, today announced version 9.5 of its Management Suite and Security Suite products. Significant upgrades have been incorporated into both suites, including enhanced cross-platform support, innovative software license management and virtualization management. These changes will further enable LANDesk's vast ecosystem of customers and partners to gain better control of their endpoints and in turn, further maximize user productivity in a secure manner.

With Gartner stating that the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) phenomenon is "the most radical shift in the economics of client computing for business since PCs invaded the workplace," IT administrators need to change the way they manage devices. LANDesk is enabling this shift with cross-platform support offered by the 9.5 product families. These features mean IT administrators can manage any number of devices a user brings into the corporate environment, from tablets to iPhones to Windows 8 laptops. These multiple platforms across multiple users can now be managed anytime, anywhere.

In addition to more extensive platform support, further upgrades to the 9.5 product families include enhanced software license management features. These features provide the capability to automatically discover software; group software to create licensable units; reconcile license usage; and track software usage. Management Suite 9.5 also provides IT administrators with the capability to monitor software usage in a virtual desktop interface (VDI) environment. These enhancements give IT the tools they need to be compliant and audit ready, along with saving on costs.

"Management Suite and Security Suite 9.5 were created in order to help solve the pain points we heard our customers voicing," said Steve Workman, vice president of product management, LANDesk Software. "With these products, our current and prospective customers now have the tools they need to maximize user productivity in a secure and cost-effective way. This will become increasingly important as BYOD invades the workplace and security threats continue to proliferate on a daily basis."

LANDesk is also further enabling its current and prospective customers through continued collaboration with a number of major hardware providers. With dozens of hardware choices and hundreds of software programs on the market today, figuring out which software solutions make the most sense across a vast hardware environment can be a daunting task for IT administrators. In order to make this task easier and reduce complexity across the enterprise environment, LANDesk has embarked on joint ventures with HP, Intel and Lenovo.

HP's custom innovation is evident with 9.5's ability to automatically collect information from across the entire enterprise of devices and store this business-relative information in a database. This information includes power consumption per device, the health of notebook batteries and the activation status for mobile broadband cards: all of which can be viewed with custom-tailored HP reports.

9.5 also includes zero touch provisioning via the LANDesk console and Intel's host-based provisioning for vPro enablement. A simplified system defense policy enables remote control of a machine from the network as a right-click function within the LANDesk menu, all the while maintaining Intel vPro access.

9.5 customers can also more easily manage Lenovo devices fleet-wide. With this release, Lenovo and LANDesk created access connections that enable IT administrators to graphically and securely manage and switch network connections between Ethernet, wireless LAN and wireless WAN. In addition, Lenovo Power Manager enables monitoring of electricity consumption and enhanced rescue and recovery features allow administrators to deploy updates, recover from crashes and provide remote access if a system will not boot or if it fails to function when booted.

Additional Features in Management Suite 9.5

    --  Virtualization Management: With the release of 9.5, LANDesk customers
        can manage both physical and virtual desktops from a single console. For
        virtual desktops, LANDesk embraces both persistent and non-persistent

        machines can be accessed from any HTML5-capable device. LANDesk has also
        made improvements to the Console Inspector, which contains 15 specific
        inspectors for console items, improving speed/performance of important
        console tasks for administrators. In addition, implementing third-party
        tools to systems management solution sets increases deployment time and
        cost.
    --  Power Manager: Power management now allows clients to auto-update power
        usage policies if core server and client policies are not the same. New
        policies are now wrapped as patch content and included with a client
        update.

Ultratech Introduces Superfast 3G CGS Inspection System For Use In Front-, Middle- And Back-end-of-line Production

The Superfast 3G Addresses a Wide Range of Applications Such as Overlay and Wafer Stress

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Ultratech, Inc. (Nasdaq: UTEK), a leading supplier of lithography and laser-processing systems used to manufacture semiconductor devices and high-brightness LEDs (HB-LEDs), today introduced its new in-line wafer inspection system, the Superfast 3G, which provides the flexibility to address a wide range of applications including improved overlay control and enhanced yield.  The system has the flexibility to be implemented anywhere in the production line?front-, middle- and back-end-of-line?to address issues confronting leading-edge device manufacturers. 

At advanced technology nodes, variations in stress and distortion on a wafer can have a significant impact on device performance and yield.  Traditional inspection tools put many different sensors and types of technologies into one tool to access different applications.  Based on patented coherent gradient sensing technology (CGS), Ultratech's Superfast 3G utilizes a unique approach.  The Superfast 3G provides the industry's highest wafer resolution and measures over 800,000 points of data per wafer compared to competing systems that measure less than 200 points per wafer.  The system's high data density is what enables a wide range of applications from one measurement, as within-die, die-to-die and wafer-to-wafer process variations can be characterized quickly and comprehensively.  In addition, the Superfast 3G has an edge-exclusion capability of less than 2mm, which is aligned with the industry requirements.  The Superfast 3G is an example of Ultratech's commitment to provide leading technology that addresses the critical needs of its global customers in a cost-effective solution. 

Ultratech Vice President of Technology and Chief Technologist for Surface Inspection Dave Owen explained, "Ultratech has had this technology for a while and has worked with customers to improve its capabilities. These customers concluded that this inspection capability was critical to improving overlay control, device performance and yield.  The Superfast 3G takes an enormous amount of data in a short span of time and creates detailed wafer maps.  Without the need for a dedicated target, this production system can measure both patterned and blanket wafers at any stage in the process flow.  The CGS technology provides a high degree of flexibility that enables our customers to use a single type of wafer inspection tool across the entire fab line.  Also, the Superfast 3G is a low cost-of-ownership and cost-per-point solution compared to competing systems.  We are excited to introduce our flexible Superfast 3G in-line, wafer inspection solution to the industry."

ATERAS® Announces ATP(TM) to Maintain Natural Batch Programs

Eliminate SAG License Fees

DALLAS, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ATERAS, a leading provider of solutions for legacy migration and modernization, announced today the roadmap to integrate Natural batch programs within the Application Transparency Platform (ATP) framework. This evolution of ATP provides a totally seamless legacy platform re-host solution for Natural sites.

One of the primary benefits of ATP is the ability for existing Natural programmers to maintain and enhance the Natural application code in a greatly improved developer environment while eliminating the need for the mainframe and expensive license fees. Currently, online Natural applications are re-hosted to ATP without any syntax changes and batch Natural programs are converted to a compatible target platform language (C# or COBOL) where they are maintained separately from ATP. With the new release, Natural batch programs will be maintained along with the online Natural programs in ATP without any change to the existing programming syntax.

Developers will use the ATP developer interface to enhance and maintain the Natural batch programs before exporting them to the batch run time environment. This export process eliminates the need for the existing team to learn a new language for batch maintenance. The ability to maintain batch programs within ATP also increases the cohesion of the re-hosted system because of the integrated version management system.

"We're very excited to be developing another solution for Adabas Natural clients to reduce their high mainframe license fees," said Scott Miller, CEO, President, ATERAS. "Improving the integration of the re-hosted solution means clients have an even easier time using the new platform."

ATP is scheduled to begin managing Natural batch programs in the first quarter of 2013. The initial run time export will be to COBOL on Windows or z/OS with additional export options to .NET C# at a later date.

About ATERAS

ATERAS® has supported global enterprises for over 28 years, offering state-of-the art services that exploit automation for transforming legacy applications and databases into modern technologies using automated conversion, modernization, and re-hosting technologies (DB-Shuttle® eav suite, & ATP®).  ATERAS' Application Portfolio Management (APM) solutions and Application code understanding range from Assessments of existing IT environments, enterprise field expansion, and COBOL/Natural workbenches to automated documentation tools.  Information at: http://www.ateras.com

Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions Simplifies Medication Safety, Inventory Management for Community Oncology Practices

DUBLIN, Ohio, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions today launched VitalPath(TM) Integrated Dispensing Solution, a Web-based automated medication dispensing system that is designed to make it easier for community oncology practices to improve patient safety, inventory and revenue management.

Many specialty medications used to treat various forms of cancer must be administered through a needle or catheter, often in community oncology offices. Given that specialty oncology medications can cost thousands of dollars per dose - it's critical that oncology practices effectively manage their medication inventories and accurately bill for medications they administer to patients. It's also critical that community oncology practices have access to tools that help them ensure the right medication is administered to the right patient at the right dose, every time.

Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions' new VitalPath(TM) Integrated Dispensing Solution addresses these needs.

"It's clear that Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions listened to the needs of oncology practices like ours when they built VitalPath," said Irene Lustria, CFO, California Cancer Associates for Research and Excellence (cCARE) in San Diego, Calif.  "VitalPath is a powerful, intuitive tool that has helped us to optimize our medication dispensing and improve the way we manage, replenish and bill for the medications we administer to patients."

VitalPath(TM) Integrated Dispensing Solution is designed to help community oncology practices:

    --  Increase patient safety - Unlike traditional automated dispensing
        machines (ADMs) that print one drug per label, VitalPath prints up to
        five drugs on a single label, helping practices save time and reduce
        errors. It prints labels with Tall Man lettering, which helps staff to
        distinguish between look-alike and sound-alike drug names. VitalPath
        also empowers staff to dispense medications based upon patient-specific
        clinical orders that are physician approved, reducing the opportunity
        for errors that can be made when orders are placed manually.
    --  Improve staff efficiency - VitalPath offers several features that reduce
        administrative burdens related to inventory management and medication
        dispensing. The VitalPath screen is easy to read and simple to use.  It
        displays specific drug descriptions, active ingredients and clinical
        orders, including the route of administration. Clinical orders can be
        cloned, or replicated, from previous orders directly from the dispensing
        cabinet, eliminating the need to manually re-enter orders, which saves
        time and reduces the possibility of errors. Because the tool can
        electronically transfer patient clinical records from the practice's
        electronic health records, clinicians can also review real-time patient
        schedules and clinical orders. This reduces the chance for charting,
        dosing or reimbursement errors.
    --  Enhance practice revenue and charge capture - VitalPath also
        automatically manages supplies and pharmaceuticals, tracks inventory and
        calculates waste - helping practices improve billing accuracy. It
        documents every action taken on the system, allowing practice managers
        to use its reporting functions to reconcile invoices and inventory.
        VitalPath can also automate the medication replenishment process and
        facilitate more efficient inventory planning by automatically
        determining which drugs are required for each patient, based on patient
        needs, schedule or PAR level.
"We're committed to delivering community oncology practices the tools they need to streamline and automate the time-consuming tasks that take them away from patients," said Meghan FitzGerald, president, Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions. "VitalPath delivers on that commitment by simplifying inventory management and making it easier for practices to improve patient safety while improving their bottom lines."

About Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions
Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions provides clinical, reimbursement, technology and distribution services that help health care professionals, payors and pharmaceutical and biotech companies improve the quality and cost-effectiveness of caring for patients who are managing complex diseases.  Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions helps customers alleviate day-to-day administrative burdens, optimize business functions and partner to implement new innovations that move their businesses forward.  To learn more, visit http://www.cardinalhealth.com/specialtysolutions.

Cellairis Utilizes Star Power To Introduce Tweet Punisher, The First-Ever Analog Machine Enabling Consumers To Live-Test Product Via Social Media

The Leading Wireless Accessory Company Demonstrates the Strength of the Shell Shock: G-Class(TM) Screen Protector with the Help of Multi-Platinum-Selling Singer/Songwriter, Justin Bieber, Allowing Customers to Try Before They Buy

ALPHARETTA, Ga., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cellairis, the world's largest franchised wireless accessory company, introduces Tweet Punisher, the first analog machine enabling consumers to live-test a product via social media.  The Tweet Punisher device itself is crafted from a 1940's typewriter with keys intricately wired to type out the characters of any tweet posted with the designated hashtag, "#tweetpunisher," while users observe via a live video feed on the Cellairis Facebook page.  Helping to launch the Tweet Punisher to a large Twitter audience is Justin Bieber who will send the first tweet incorporating the designated hashtag. 

To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cellairis-utilizes-star-power-to-introduce-tweet-punisher-the-first-ever-analog-machine-enabling-consumers-to-live-test-product-via-social-media-175333911.html

A uniquecombination of old equipment and new media, the Tweet Punisher holds an iPhone in its type guide where the metal keys strike, making every tweet a live demonstration of the unparalleled strength of the Cellairis Shell Shock: G-Class(TM) screen protector.  A screen struck without the screen protector shatters almost instantly, while a phone outfitted with the Cellairis Shell Shock: G-Class(TM) screen protector can withstand significantly more pressure. 

"Cellairis is a lifestyle brand that seeks to engage with our customers in all aspects of life," says Joe Ciardullo, Chief Marketing Officer of Cellairis. "We wanted to introduce a new and innovative concept that would both demonstrate our top of the line product, while also engaging our active social media fan base.  We have consistently developed and tweaked products and services based on valuable consumer feedback on social media.  We believe the Tweet Punisher takes our efforts one step further by allowing our customers to test our screen protectors in a fun and unique way before deciding to make a purchase."

The Tweet Punisher illustrates Cellairis' commitment to innovation in thinking and design--melding the old world technology of a typewriter with the cutting edge technology of the Shell Shock.

The Cellairis Shell Shock: G-Class(TM) screen protector is a highly durable screen protector made from impact resistant tempered glass.  Its sleek and sturdy design offers protection without adding bulk, and the self-adhesive design is applied in one simple step, free of bubbles.  Shell Shock: G-Class(TM) screen protectors retail for $39.99-$49.99 and are available on http://www.cellairis.com and Cellairis retail locations nationwide.

Cellairis continues to initiate strategic relationships and collaborations, paying special attention to the social media influence of their partners, such as Justin Bieber, owner of the second most followed Twitter account.  Justin Bieber launched the collection, Cellairis by Justin Bieber, with the company in early June which includes a variety of cell phone cases, tablet cases and screen protectors, such as the Justin Bieber Shell Shock: G-Class (TM) screen protector which will be put to the test in the Tweet Punisher.

Visit Cellairis' Facebook page to view the live feed and watch for Justin's tweet.

Future US Titles Feature Augmented Reality Special Edition "Far Cry 3" Covers

Official Xbox Magazine, PlayStation: The Official Magazine and PC Gamer Covers Let Fans Interact with Printed Page with Aurasma

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --Future US, a leading producer of gaming and technology media properties, will release three very special augmented reality (AR) "Far Cry 3" covers in succession with the first being PlayStation: The Official Magazine (PTOM), followed by Official Xbox Magazine (OXM) and then PC Gamer.  These printed magazine covers will use the latest AR technology from Aurasma, the world's leading AR platform. Fans can interact with the special edition covers by using a free Aurasma-powered app called "Future AR" (for iOS and Android) via their smart phone or tablet. This augmented reality viewer can be used on Future's media products for additional, interactive content.  For these particular executions, Future will be bringing the covers of PTOM, OXM and PC Gamer to life, in partnership with Ubisoft for Far Cry 3. Please visit http://www.digitalfuture.com/aurasma for a sneak peek of the AR covers and how they work.

The issues will hit stands on the following dates:

    --  PlayStation: The Official Magazine - October 23
    --  Official Xbox Magazine - November 6
    --  PC Gamer - November 6
"We are always striving to provide new and creative programs that engage our loyal audience. These special edition covers offer an exciting way for readers and Far Cry fans to interact with the covers of our most popular titles," said Rachelle Considine, chief operating officer, Future US.

Ubisoft's "Far Cry 3" allows players to step into the shoes of Jason Brody, a man alone at the edge of the world, stranded on a mysterious tropical island. In this savage paradise where lawlessness and violence are the only sure thing, players dictate how the story unfolds, from the battles they choose to fight to the allies or enemies they make along the way. As Jason Brody, players will slash, sneak, detonate and shoot their way across the island in a world that has lost all sense of right and wrong.  The game is set to release on December 4 in the U.S., and fans are anxiously awaiting the release.

The Future AR app's AR is made possible by Aurasma's AR platform.  Aurasma uses advanced image and pattern recognition to recognize and understand real-world images and objects in much the same way the human brain does.  It then blends the images with video and animations called "Auras," which provide the ability to see the images as if they were in front of them in real life.  The Aurasma Lite app has been downloaded more than four million times in more than 100 countries, and boasts more than 8,000 partners across retail, fashion, sport, automotive, entertainment, lifestyle and gaming.

"The interactive gaming industry is a natural fit for augmented reality," said Jennifer Rapp, general manager of Aurasma.  "By using the Future US publications to launch exclusive digital Ubisoft 'Far Cry 3' content on mobile devices, these forward-looking brands are giving readers both an engaging print experience as well as an exciting way to discover more about the next big game."

Webalo® Introduces the World's First Service That Provides Enterprise Mobility in Minutes(TM)

The self-service technology uses a web-based configuration process that can be mastered by anyone to provide direct smartphone and tablet access to enterprise applications and data

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Webalo, Inc. announced today the general availability of its cloud-based enterprise mobility service that makes it fast and easy to create secure, bi-directional, transactional mobile connections to the enterprise applications and data that employees rely on to do their jobs.

With today's launch of Webalo, The App for Enterprise(TM), complexity, time, and cost are no longer obstacles to enterprise mobility. Los Angeles-based Webalo, Inc. has made it possible to learn its technology and then configure and deploy enterprise-to-mobile tasks and workflows, all in under an hour. Customers sign up online at http://www.webalo.com for a free Webalo Cloud account and then sign in to learn how Webalo works and to configure connections to enterprise resources. As soon as a configuration is deployed, users can sign on to use it on Android, Apple, BlackBerry, and Windows smartphones and tablets.

Webalo delivers enterprise mobility more than 100x faster than traditional mobile application development methods. It also reduces the burden on IT by lowering development overhead and minimizing reliance on internal IT resources. The result is on-demand mobility that helps employees increase business efficiency and productivity.

"We are pleased to have selected Webalo for the mobility tools we need to more efficiently manage our inventory.  Mobile solutions are increasingly critical to meet the ongoing replenishment demands of our Home Depot customer in more than 150 store locations across seven states," said Joe Perret, Vice President, Systems and Technology of Bell Nursery, one of the nation's largest greenhouse growers with growing operations in Maryland, Virginia, and Ohio.  "We selected Webalo because the service is easy to deploy and configure on a variety of mobile platforms, and will scale quickly and cost effectively as our business continues to grow."

"Through our partnership with Webalo, an approved associate can initiate sophisticated search queries on his/her mobile device as easily as they can on a laptop.  This capability can put information at the fingertips of decision makers wherever and whenever they need it." said John Ozsvath, Vice President - Information Services of Anixter, a global distributor of communications and security products, electrical and electronic wire and cable, fasteners and other small components.  "Webalo is so easy to deploy that we were able to roll out numerous customized mobile applications throughout the company without overburdening the IT department."

"Traditional approaches to mobile application development don't reflect the speed and simplicity that people have come to expect from mobility," said Webalo CEO, Peter Price. "The time and cost involved force employees to wait in line for weeks or months while requirements are written, prototypes are created, apps are tested, and users are trained. In the time it takes for a mobile app kick-off meeting, Webalo customers can create and deploy extremely sophisticated long-tail mobile capabilities - the lookups, data entry, updates, approvals, and countless other workflows that they now have to perform on desktops and laptops. In today's all-mobile-all-the-time environment small businesses will require dozens of mobile apps, mid-market businesses hundreds, and Fortune-ranked businesses thousands. At Webalo we've built an economically scalable service that will enable these companies to meet their mobile requirements for pennies an app and do it in a fraction of the usual time. It's mobility the way people want it to be - fast, easy, and affordable."

Analysts understand the impact of mobility, the shift to BYOD and how traditional software development processes don't apply in today's mobile world. "The rise of 'bring your own device' programs is the single most radical shift in the economics of client computing for business since PCs invaded the workplace," said David Willis, Vice President and Distinguished Analyst, Gartner Research.  "Mobile innovation is now driven more by consumer markets than by business markets. Affordability is not only putting very powerful technology in the hands of consumers, but those consumers are also upgrading at a much-faster rate. Thus, organizations may keep up with mobile technology advancements more effectively by aligning to the consumer, rather than maintaining the much-slower pace of business technology adoption, with its long cycle of detailed requirements analysis, established refresh rates and centralized procurement heritage."*

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- QuickLoansBadCredit.org, top online resource for reputable bad credit lenders, announces a new addition to its website. The service is now running with a bad credit personal loan checker that has the capacity to cross-reference details provided by the consumer to the best matched lenders for their needs.

"QuickLoansBadCredit.org is pleased to make its new fast loans service even more effective and efficient, thanks to our new online loan checker.

Our service is ideal for those who want to take a look at the many loan companies who cater to them specifically. We invite consumers to try it to see what they can find."

As well as being a handy way to compare a variety of loans, the information provided by a searcher in the QuickLoansBadCredit online form acts as an application to matching loan companies.

The spokesperson was asked to give a run through of what a consumer can expect when using their website to compare and find a personal loan for bad credit people.

"The website has been made super-easy to navigate, so it's great if an individual only has a little time to do some research.

Listen to your favorite video game music again, for the first time

Famed classical recording artist Angele Dubeau debuts newest album, "Game Music"

MONTREAL, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Analekta, the largest independent classical record company in Canada, is thrilled to announce Angèle Dubeau with La Pietà newest album Game Music. Her 36th album was devoted to film music and topped the Canadian charts for the last 9 months; this new recording features unrivalled performances of strong and striking works from some of the most popular video games in the world. Never before has the realm of video game music been imbued with such virtuosity and originality. To download the album on iTunes please go here.

"I have never placed limits on my choice of repertoire, and for this project, I reached toward a unique world that was creative and vibrant in its originality," explains Angèle Dubeau, the violinist and artistic director of La Pietà. "In my quest to discover the gems of video game music, I listened to many works written and revisited by composers of great talent. Above all, I wanted to avoid distorting them, and my intention has been to preserve the form that initially won over video game aficionados while at the same time breathing new life into them." 

As Angèle did previously when she picked film music, she assembled works that were powerful and evocative enough to have a life of their own. The album features, works associated with famous games such as Tetris, Final Fantasy, Halo 3, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, Assassin's Creed and Angry Birds, as well as others heard in Chrono Trigger, Heavy Rain and Secret of Mana.  The album is available today for digital download and can be purchased on CD today in Canada and on October 30(th) in the US.  Additionally a free companion App has been released with trivia on video game music and clips from the album, it can be downloaded here. 

Considered one of the most prominent violin virtuosos in Canada since she was 15, Angèle Dubeau has led a dazzling career in the great concert halls of the world. Her virtuosity and musicality have garnered many prizes over the years, and is one of the rare classical violinists in the world to have been awarded gold records. She has already sold over 500,000 albums in her career.  Driven by a constant desire to innovate, Angèle Dubeau founded La Pietà in 1997, an all-female string orchestra featuring some of Canada's best musicians. From early on, the ensemble gained a solid reputation, playing Canada's most prestigious venues and on television. The Los Angeles Times noted that, "Dubeau is an exciting, dynamic fiddler...The performances were consistently robust and inquiring, taking nothing for granted...Dubeau's well-drilled band played with agility, power, a nicely weighted sound and a fierce joy in the doing."

New dtSearch® Product Line Release Adds to Document Filters; dtSearch's Proprietary Filters Cover a Wide Range of Online and Offline Data Types

BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- dtSearch Corp., a leading supplier of enterprise and developer text retrieval software along with document filters, announces Version 7.70 of the dtSearch product line.  The release improves the document filters embedded across the entire dtSearch product line.  For customers in need of data parsing, conversion and extraction only, the dtSearch Engine APIs (native 64-bit/32-bit, Win/Linux C++, Java and .NET through 4.x) also offers the document filters for separate OEM licensing.

Document Filters.  dtSearch's proprietary document filters support a broad range of data types:

    --  "Office" documents:  MS Office, OpenOffice, RTF, PDF, etc.
    --  Emails:  MS Exchange, Outlook, Thunderbird, etc., all with nested
        attachments
    --  Compression formats:  ZIP, RAR, GZIP/TAR, etc.
    --  Web-ready data (including image and text support):  HTML, XML/XSL and
        PDF--all including integrated image and text support
    --  Dynamic data (including image and text support):  PHP, ASP.NET,
        SharePoint, etc.
    --  Databases:  SQL including BLOB data (through the dtSearch Engine APIs),
        MS Access, XBASE, XML, CSV, etc.
The document filters support parsing of all of the above data types as well as text extraction and/or conversion to HTML as required for browser display with highlighted hits.

Embedded Image and Other Enhancements.  The new version extends the document filters to add image support to Word (.doc/.docx), PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx), Excel, (.xls/.xlsx), Access (.mdb/accdb), RTF, and email files including Thunderbird (mbox/.eml), and Outlook (.pst/.msg) files.  The release displays these formats showing highlighted hits in context with both text and now images.  The release also adds support for Japanese Ichitaro documents.

Multi-Level Nested File Enhancements.  The release also increases support for documents and images in multi-level nested configurations.  For example, the new version supports not only viewing images in an email file, but also images in a PowerPoint embedded in a Word document attached as a zipped file to an email message.  A new "object extraction" API lets developers navigate through the structure of each embedded object as a hierarchy, and optionally extract each object.

Spider.  The Spider works with local and remote, static and dynamic web content.  Hit-highlighted searching can span any level of site depth, across any number of public and private or secure sites, including support for log-ins and forms-based authentication.  The Spider is built into the dtSearch product line, and accessible through a .NET API for programmers.

Terabyte Indexer.  dtSearch enterprise and developer products can index over a terabyte of text in a single index, spanning directories, databases, online data, and emails.  The products can create an unlimited number of indexes, and simultaneously search them.  Indexed search time is typically less than a second, even across terabytes of data.  Online indexed searching operates in a "stateless" environment, supporting unlimited concurrent search threads.

Search Options.  The dtSearch product line includes 25+ full-text and fielded data search types, including special forensics search options.  dtSearch products offer federated or distributed searching with integrated relevancy ranking across any number of different data repositories.  The dtSearch Engine APIs also support faceted searching and other advanced data classification objects.

International Language Support.  dtSearch products support all Unicode languages, including both right-to-left languages, and special Chinese/Japanese/Korean character options.

The dtSearch Engine.  The dtSearch Engine for Win & .NET and the dtSearch Engine for Linux make available dtSearch document filters and instant searching for a wide range of Internet, Intranet and other commercial applications.  The SDKs include native 64-bit and 32-bit C++, Java and .NET (through 4.x) APIs.  For over a hundred developer case studies, please see http://www.dtsearch.com/casestudies.html.  In addition to standard OEM licenses, the SDK also makes available the document filters for separate OEM licensing.

Other dtSearch Products.  The new release also covers dtSearch Web with Spider for quickly publishing instantly searchable data to an Internet or Intranet site, dtSearch Network with Spider for instantly searching across a network, dtSearch Publish for publishing searchable data to portable media, and dtSearch Desktop with Spider for desktop search.

PrescribeWellness Launches Solution to Help Control Hospital Readmissions

Service helps hospitals improve patient satisfaction scores

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- PrescribeWellness today announced the release of its Transitional Care Intervention (TCI) solution to help reduce controllable readmissions for hospitals across the United States.   

On October 1st, the Value Based Purchasing portion of the Affordable Care Act went into effect, shifting some of the readmission responsibilities to different community organizations. The PrescribeWellness TCI platform automates the delivery of critical educational and motivational information based on the individual's diagnosis, condition, risk factors and needs. It includes built-in reminders for appointments and medication adherence in the patient's language and channel of choice. Real-time reporting allows providers to instantly identify patients that need more intensive support.

"Nearly 20 percent of discharged Medicare patients are readmitted to the hospital within 30 days," said Al Babbington, CEO of PrescribeWellness. "Many of these readmissions are controllable. Using our unique Voice of Authority methodology patients receive support in the voice of their provider, driving greater compliance to appointments, medications and other discharge instructions."

Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MEDPAC) findings indicate that 19 percent of Medicare patients have an adverse event within 30 days with two-thirds of these events relating to prescription drug interactions. Family, pharmacists and primary care physicians must be involved to reduce adverse events and improve care transitions. PrescribeWellness' partnerships with state pharmacy associations leverage a network of over 10,000 independent pharmacies to improve proper medication adherence.

Previous methods to assure safe transitions are very labor intensive with active involvement from case managers, social workers or other staff. Leveraging the latest in Web 2.0 tools, PrescribeWellness automates follow-up, collects compliance information and alerts others as necessary to properly support the patient.

The initial release includes content developed by medical professionals to address the unique needs of patients who have suffered heart failure, heart attacks, pneumonia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. These diseases represent the tracked and penalized areas by the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services. PrescribeWellness is offering hospitals facing penalties the opportunity to try TCI without cost or obligation.

"One exciting aspect about this solution is that it can be launched in a day and hospitals can instantly measure success and ROI," said Babbington.
