Click and Improve Launches Easy-to-Use Online Bid Service for Larger Home Improvement Projects, Renovates Its Homepage

Online Home Improvement and Repair Service Connects Homeowners & Apartment Dwellers with Reputable Local Service Professionals, Backed By Satisfaction & Money-Back Guarantees

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Click and Improve, the full-service online home improvement company serving the NY/NJ Metro region, today announced the launch of a new online bid service for customers who are considering larger home renovations or remodeling projects.  The new Click and Improve Bid Service is being introduced as part of the first update to the ClickandImprove.com homepage since launching in January 2012.

The newly renovated Click and Improve website - http://www.ClickandImprove.com - now allows prospective customers to receive bids from up to four pre-screened, local and licensed contractors within 48 hours for bigger jobs, such as remodeling a kitchen or bathroom, replacing siding on a home, or installing a new roof. The Click and Improve Bid Service carries no additional charge and personal information remains protected by Click and Improve throughout, ensuring anonymity and complete comfort at all times. The new service is available to customers in the five boroughs of New York, Westchester County, Long Island, southwest Connecticut and northern New Jersey.

"Since we launched in January, customers have found the Click and Improve model for home improvement and repair easy to use and convenient, and almost immediately began asking if we could help them with larger home renovation projects," said Jesse Friedman, co-founder of Click and Improve. "We're all about leveling the playing field between homeowners and contractors, and our new Bid Service provides customers with a new resource that respects their time and protects their interests as they consider more comprehensive projects."

How it works: customers fill out a questionnaire accessible from the ClickandImprove.com homepage providing project details and specifications (e.g. approximate size of space, ceiling height, earliest desired start date, any personal preferences, etc.).  Photos or video of the area where the desired work will be done can also be uploaded to the site.

Click and Improve then shops the answers, project description and any provided photos or videos to its network of trusted, pre-screened contractors and posts a set of up to four competitive bids to a customers' online account within 48 hours. The posted bids include itemized material and labor costs, earliest start date, estimated duration of job, and additional notes provided by the service provider.  Customers can also view company profiles for each service provider, including a photo gallery of prior projects, bios, licenses and insurance certificates, helping them make an informed decision.

Once the user finds the bid they'd like to employ, they simply click "Accept" and the user pays Click and Improve in advance.  Click and Improve stands behind the work and pricing through their Satisfaction Guarantee and Money Back Guarantee. The company will hold back payment to the service provider for up to seven days after completion of the project, until the homeowner is satisfied that the job has been done right, or the service provider returns to make it right. And, if the job was misdiagnosed online, Click and Improve offers a full money-back guarantee. 

Developed by three entrepreneurial business partners -- Avi Zikry, Jesse Friedman and Alex Ushyarov, partners in New York Construction Co., a Better Business Bureau A+ rated construction company -- Click and Improve helps homeowners easily identify the exact home improvement or repair service they need ("everyday" projects like fixing a leaky faucet or painting a room, to more comprehensive remodeling or renovation), sets a fixed price for completing the job or, for larger projects, obtains a series of competitive bids from which to choose, and guarantees that the work is done to the customer's satisfaction by a reputable, licensed, bonded and insured service provider. Click and Improve withholds payments to the service provider until the homeowner tells them the job was completed to their satisfaction.

"It's a common problem we see where many homeowners battle with their contractors over money, 'surprise' additions to the project that increase the cost, and an overall less-than-satisfactory job," noted Avi Zikry, co-founder of Click and Improve. "That's what separates Click and Improve from everyone else - we guarantee that our service providers deliver the work we've promised at the price we've promised to the customer's satisfaction. Guaranteed."

Using a carefully screened roster of bonded, licensed, insured and reputable local contractors, repairmen and expert services professionals, Click and Improve puts homeowners first -- saving time, protecting money, and ensuring satisfaction.

For more information about Click and Improve, to book a home repair or improvement project, or to use the new Click and Improve Bid Service, visit: http://www.ClickandImprove.com.  Find Click and Improve on Facebook at http://www.Facebook.com/ClickandImprove and follow the company on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/clickandimprove.

Chilean Twin Brothers Launch Huntcha, Facebook's "Sexiest App," with Provocative Celebrity YouTube Campaign

- Actresses from Two and a Half Men and the Vampire Diaries are among those starring in the social network's daring "Kissing Campaign" conceived and directed by Huntcha's twin founders.

- The premise of Huntcha rests in its tagline- "find out if you're the secret love of your secret love." Users can add up to any nine people from Facebook to their secret list; if two users mutually add each other to their secret lists, a Match is made and Huntcha privately lets those people know. Huntcha users are required to have a Facebook profile in order to confirm identities and promote safety.

LOS ANGELES, July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- YouTube has been injected with a heavy dose of sensuality after the release of a new social network's provocative video campaign, coinciding with their worldwide launch. Huntcha, Facebook's "sexiest application," recruited stars to lend their lips to one of the hottest campaigns of the year.

Directed by the startup's twin founders, Cristobal and Sebastian Zegers, the videos feature Vampire Diaries star, singer, and top model Kat Graham; April Bowlby, Alan's gorgeous girlfriend from Two and a Half Men; and Kika, a blonde-bombshell swimsuit model.

This is only the beginning of what the world will see from Huntcha as the male version of the campaign is coming soon, so be prepared!

The social network that connects secret admirers aims to be recognized as the "sexiest Facebook app," setting it far apart from traditional dating sites. According to co-founder Sebastian, "Huntcha is a tool that helps win hearts. It's similar to wearing certain clothes or a special perfume in order to attract the person you like. We have an intuitive feeling that Huntcha is going to take off- we've seen how the network seems to touch a nerve among people who hear about it as many create accounts just after learning how it works."

His twin brother and co-founder Cristobal adds: "The same goes for the videos that we directed. The celebrities who participated were chosen not only because they're sexy, but because they represent and personify the Huntcha brand. We're sure that the campaign isn't going to go unnoticed!"

The website was launched in Chile in October 2011 and was received with fervor, garnering 20,000 users in the first month and propelling the Chilean version of the "kissing campaign" to nearly half a million YouTube views in less than a week. This success led to the Zegers twins moving to L.A., CA in early 2012, where with the support of the Prochile office in Los Angeles, they focused on finding partners, working on new applications for the website, as well as defining strategies to expand the project to new markets.

"Projects like Huntcha reflect the potential of Chilean entrepreneurs to internationalize their innovation and conquer new markets. Our country is making significant efforts to encourage such initiatives and specifically in the United States we are supporting Chilean entrepreneurs that have proven business models with a high degree of innovation in the areas of Internet, mobile phone applications, videogames, biomedicine, biotechnology and environmental solutions, to name a few", said Francisco Correa, Prochile's Trade Commissioner in Los Angeles.

John Hancock Funds Launches Program To Help Retirement Plan Advisers Demonstrate Their Value

Guidebook and Plan Sponsor Toolkit available at http://www.jhfunds.com adviser site

BOSTON, July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- John Hancock Funds has launched a new program designed to help retirement plan advisers demonstrate their value and build stronger client relationships.  Available on the John Hancock Funds' adviser web site, http://www.jhfunds.com, the program, "Focus on Value:  What Matters Most to Your Clients - and How to Build on It," includes a Guidebook, Wholesaler PowerPoint, and Plan Sponsor Toolkit.

In addition, John Hancock participated as a co-sponsor for a survey and study of plan sponsors released in the spring and called:  "Can a Professional Retirement Plan Adviser Really Make That Much of a Difference?" The survey findings provide first-person insight into ways that plan sponsors believe retirement plan advisers may bring the greatest value to their plans and participants.

"New Department of Labor regulations this year require retirement plan service providers to reveal investment expenses and fees to plan sponsors. The right adviser can help monitor and review fees to ensure compliance," noted Gene Huxhold, Senior Managing Director, Investment Only Retirement Plans. "Our materials illuminate insights and provide steps to boost the specific values that plan sponsors recognize and appreciate most about service the retirement plan advisers provide. John Hancock is committed to the Investment Only space and to helping retirement plan advisers express their value to plans and participants."

The new Guidebook from John Hancock Funds includes five key findings from the research study whereby plan sponsors offered observations about what retirement plan advisers bring to their plans:

    --  Superior retirement outcomes for participants
    --  Superior fiduciary expertise and improved compliance
    --  Improved plan design
    --  Advanced investment plan
    --  More reasonable fees and overall plan costs.
The guidebook also offers corresponding practice management tips for advisers.

Also available are the Wholesaler PowerPoint, a client-facing presentation that mirrors the Guidebook and is formatted for iPad delivery, and the Plan Sponsor Toolkit, which offers a comprehensive approach to evaluating a new or existing financial adviser for a company's retirement plan.

Starz Entertainment Launches "Price For Power" Facebook Connect Experience For "Boss" In Advance Of Season Two Return Of Kelsey Grammer Series

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- "What is your price for power?" Starz Entertainment and the STARZ Original series, "Boss" ask the rhetorical question of fans in anticipation of the return of the Golden Globe(® )award-winner Kelsey Grammer-led series to STARZ  on Friday, August 17 at 9:00 pm et/pt.

"Price For Power" (http://www.PriceForPower.com) creates a uniquely personalized video with an inside look into the world of Mayor Tom Kane (Grammer) and how easily twisted and manipulated someone in his path can become.  It's one thing to watch it, another to experience it.  "Price For Power" delivers a robust experience with numerous customizations including the appearance of manipulating your Facebook profile and a new video each time you take the challenge.

The online digital experience of "Price For Power" leverages Facebook Connect to invite users into a Machiavellian world where you are the political elite, have the clout to change lives (for the better or worse), and rule over a political machine that rewards those with power and control.

Your personal Facebook information is transposed securely and populated into a virtual universe akin to that of Mayor Kane. "Price For Power" immerses you into a surreal experience with your connections used to personalize a world where you are in control politically. You peddle influence, cut deals, see your own ubiquitous campaign advertisements on display, are the subject of 24/7 news coverage and scrutiny from the press, and more.  Your life changes, but most of all you change. Friends disappear from your virtual Facebook page and family questions the person you have become.  You are the "Boss."

Share the "Price For Power" experience with family and friends, learn more about the STARZ Original series "Boss," witness Grammer's gripping portrayal of Mayor Kane, and more. Fans can join the conversation about "Price For Power" at https://www.facebook.com/boss.starz and on Twitter (@Boss_Starz) with #BossTV and #PriceforPower.

"The allure and corruptibility of political power was the perfect backdrop to 'Price For Power' and a virtual experience like no other," said Kelly Bumann, SVP, digital marketing for Starz Entertainment. "The Facebook Connect technology platform provides a seamless vehicle for you to see what life could be like if you were the one in control and the ramifications that could ripple through your social network as a result. 'Boss' is much less a show about politics and much more about the incredible allure of power and the methods those with it will sometimes use to preserve it. 'Price For Power' gives you a taste of this virtual social media reality."

Beginning August 20 the first episode of season two of "Boss" will be available for sampling online at http://www.starz.com/boss, on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/boss.starz, and on-demand and online through select multichannel video and online affiliates company and Facebook sites. Future episodes of "Boss" will be available to STARZ subscribers on STARZ ON DEMAND and STARZ ONLINE the day after the Friday premiere.

About Boss
In Season Two of Starz' critically-acclaimed drama, "Boss," Mayor Tom Kane still maintains his powerful hold over the city. Played by Kelsey Grammer in the role for which he won a Golden Globe, Kane is man whose life force is draining away.  His physical being is rapidly deteriorating and the power he wields over the city of Chicago is in jeopardy.  The all-powerful boss fights the demise of his political career, surviving the betrayals and intrigues of those seeking to unseat him.  All the while, he battles the inevitable progression of his degenerative neurological disease.

In pursuit of power, Kane has destroyed friends, family and foes.  In doing so, he has lost himself in the image he created and become the architect of his own loneliness.  But as he confronts his mortality, can he change his nature and achieve redemption?

By suppressing the physical symptoms of his secret debilitating brain disease, Kane is left with intense and uncontrollable neurological side effects. While he breaks ground on the O'Hare Airport expansion effort, he looks toward the next endeavor to complete his legacy. With the astute counsel of his new aides Mona Fredricks (Sanaa Lathan) and Ian Todd (Jonathan Groff), he plans to remove and rebuild a long forgotten housing project, now home to gang activity and rampant corruption. Kane is committed to his unorthodox agenda, even if it means bucking his political machine to do it.

Kane's wife, Meredith (Connie Nielsen), knows about Kane's illness and finds herself questioning, for the first time, whether she herself holds the key to preserving her position of power. Their daughter, Emma (Hannah Ware), is a product of their loveless, political marriage. Emma struggles with her family and her addictions as she is forced to sever her relationship with her lover, Darius (Rotimi).

As Kane's protege, Ben Zajac (Jeff Hephner), enters the race for governor, it's tough going without Kane's former aide, Kitty O'Neil (Kathleen Robertson). In the meantime, Kitty finds herself in an unexpected relationship and is forced to reevaluate what she wants and must reconcile that with who she really is.

Sam Miller (Troy Garity), now the editor of the newspaper, has a hard time remaining tethered to an office when he'd much rather be reporting on the mayor's wrong-doings.

The odds continue to stack against him, but Mayor Kane won't go down without a fight.

"Boss" was created by Farhad Safinia (Apocalypto) who is also an executive producer on the series, along with Grammer, two-time Academy Award® nominee Gus Van Sant  (Milk, Good Will Hunting), Dee Johnson ("The Good Wife," "ER"), Brian Sher and Stella Bulochnikov. The series is produced by Lionsgate Television in association with Grammnet NH Productions, Roya Productions and Small Wishes, Inc.

LG's new line of high-performance IP cameras will feature the company's proprietary XDI imaging technology, which is designed to optimize performance and interoperability with LG products and components and to deliver excellent image resolution.  One highlight of the new product line is the LG Wireless HD Network IP Cube Camera (model LW130W), a turn-key solution for high-quality, day/night indoor surveillance. The LG LW130W features 720p resolution at up to 30 frames-per-second, delivering high-definition video. The LG cube camera also offers a free and simple Android or iPhone application for remote viewing and monitoring from anywhere with smartphone connectivity.

Full-featured, high-performance 8- and 16-channel embedded hybrid digital video recorders (DVRs), available in standard- and high-resolution recording modes, are Android and iPhone compatible.

LG's IP security cameras are both ONVIF- (Open Network Video Interface Forum) and PSIA- (Physical Security Interoperability Alliance) compliant, and have been tested and certified for interoperability.

RentMineOnline helps property owners and managers generate leads by combining the success of online resident referral programs with the power of social networks, such as Facebook(TM), Twitter(TM) and LinkedIn(TM), as well as email.  Since the average social media user has over 150 Facebook(TM) friends and Twitter(TM) followers, social network resident referral campaigns are quickly becoming an extremely important source of leads for the rental housing industry. 

"Adding a social network referral channel to our LeaseStar(TM) solution is expected to help increase the percentage of overall leads that a property can generate organically, reducing dependency on more expensive traditional listing services," said Steve Winn, Chairman and CEO of RealPage.  "Social influence in the rental decision is proving to increase conversion rates, so property owners and managers are now using this type of tool to improve both the quantity and quality of leads that they receive. In addition, we expect social network recommendations to help improve search engine optimization of our LeaseStar(TM) websites." 

"We are excited to become part of the RealPage team," said Ed Spiegel, CEO of Rent Mine Online.  "We have revolutionized the way property owners and managers utilize social media to drive demand reaching over 10 million unique friends since our inception.  We are delighted that our vision and dedication on this front will enable us to become part of the LeaseStar(TM) multichannel marketing solution which should transform the way property owners and managers solve the total rental housing demand equation."

Financial Terms

The Company paid closing merger consideration of approximately $6.0 million at close subject to working capital adjustments.  The Merger Agreement provides for the payment of up to an additional $3.5 million to RMO stockholders, subject to a reduction for indemnification claims, working capital adjustments, or the failure of RMO to achieve certain revenue milestones.  The Merger Agreement also provides for additional contingent consideration payments to RMO stockholders if RMO achieves certain revenue milestones.

RealPage expects existing management of RMO will remain with the business.  Based on information provided to the Company by RMO, RMO exited the June 30, 2012 quarter with trailing twelve month revenue of approximately $1.5 million with profit margins that are expected to be consistent with RealPage's 2012 target operating objectives.

L'Oreal Paris Launches "My L'Oreal Colorist" Mobile App to Help Women Find Their Perfect Hair Color Shade

NEW YORK, July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The hair color aisle can be daunting to even the most experienced beauty guru. With over 100 years of hair color expertise, L'Oreal Paris is helping take the guesswork out of choosing the right hair color shade with the launch of "My L'Oreal Colorist," a mobile app that serves as your own personal color consultant. Now women can finally skip the salon while still experiencing professionally-inspired hair color results at home with one easy app download at L'OrealParisUSA.com/MyColorist.

To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click:  https://www.multivu.com/mnr/57274-loreal-paris-colorist-perfect-hair-shade-mobile-app

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120723/MM43478)

HOW THE APP WORKS:

Available for free download at the Mac Apple Store, "My L'Oreal Colorist" initially prompts users to either "Scan a Shade" or "Find a Shade." The first option allows shoppers to use their mobile device to scan the UPC barcode of the L'Oreal Paris hair color product/shade* they are interested in, while "Find a Shade" allows both at-home and on-the-go users to dive into a short questionnaire before learning their shade recommendation.

Whether in the hair color aisle or elsewhere, all app users are directed to answer key questions that any top hair colorist would pose. Designed with true-to-tone hair color visuals for easy navigation, this app even invites users to share if they are looking for a permanent or non-permanent color, which tone of hair color they are hoping to achieve and their preferred hair color form (creme, gel or foam).

ADDITIONAL EXPERT FEATURES:

More than just an engaging tool, "My L'Oreal Colorist" not only helps women identify their ideal hair color shade, but also allows user to consult consumer ratings, reviews and more details on a range of L'Oreal Paris' hair color product lines. Users also have the ability to share their recommended shade on Facebook to get feedback from friends before making their purchase.

HOW-TO VIDEO:

Beauty vlogger Dianna Hampton knows all too well the challenges women can face with selecting at-home hair color. "It's easy to get lost in your day-to-day activity and put yourself last. Not everyone has the time to go to a salon and get professional color services, and the hair color aisle can be a bit overwhelming as there are so many shade options," Hampton says.

She continues, "I recommend 'My L'Oreal Colorist' to anyone looking to get professional-quality results from the comfort of their own home. The app is really easy to use and asks all the right questions to ensure each user is matched up with a hair color that is just right for them. It takes the guess work out of finding the perfect shade for you."

HAIR COLOR PRODUCTS TO PERUSE:

Consumers currently have five L'Oreal Paris hair color brands to choose from as they embark on their search for the perfect shade:

    --  Superior Preference - The "Gold Standard" in hair color, this consumer
        favorite provides 8 weeks of fade-defying color
    --  Excellence Creme - Delivers rich, radiant color with 100% gray coverage
    --  Feria - This collection is available in bold hues with multi-faceted
        color and 3X the highlights
    --  Healthy Look Creme Gloss Color - This no-ammonia hair color lasts
        through 28 shampoos and delivers natural, healthy-looking color
    --  Sublime Mousse by Healthy Look -This luscious mousse formula is as easy
        to apply as shampoo and perfect for first-time hair color users
APP AVAILABILITY AND RETAIL AVAILABILITY:

"My L'Oreal Colorist" is now available for download, free-of-charge, at LorealParisUSA.com/MyColorist for iPhone users. L'Oreal Paris hair color products are available at drugstores, food and mass retailers nationwide for under $10.00**.

Boston Limited Ships First ARM(R)-Based Servers to Bring Low-Power Economics to High-Performance Data Centers

ST ALBANS, England, July 23, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    Big data, web apps, HPC and media streaming to benefit from technology that consumes
less than 1/10th the power of conventional servers

    Boston Limited, the leading manufacturer of high performance, low-powered server,
storage and clustered solutions, has begun manufacturing and worldwide distribution of its
innovative Viridis server, based on Calxeda EnergyCore(TM) SoC (System on a Chip)
leveraging ultra-low power ARM processors.

    The Boston Viridis platform is the first to enter general availability in a new
generation of data center servers based on technology from ARM, whose chip designs power
the Apple(R) iPhone(R), iPad(R) and many other low-power consumer devices. Consuming as
little as 5 watts per SoC, the ultra low-powered Calxeda EnergyCore SoC is designed
specifically to provide supercomputing performance while consuming less than one tenth the
power that many of today's processors use.

    This new technology is set to radically redefine the economics of a range of
compute-intensive applications such as data analysis and modeling ('Big Data'),
high-volume web applications, high performance computing (HPC) and media streaming. Power
consumption (and related costs such as heat dissipation) make up a significant proportion
of running costs in large-scale data centers. Reducing energy costs tenfold not only
slashes existing costs but also enables the development of new applications that had not
previously been viable.

    The Boston Viridis server harnesses a revolutionary new approach to energy-efficient
computing based on the low power consumption of EnergyCore SoC processors compared to
traditional x86-based architectures. Provisioned within a 2U enclosure, each Boston
Viridis unit contains up to 12 quad-node EnergyCards with built-in Layer-2 networking,
plus storage in the form of up to 24 local SATA disks or MicroSD cards. With up to 48
nodes per enclosure, this highly dense solution contains up to 900 servers per industry
standard 42U rack, providing customers with industry-leading power, space and cost
savings.

    Supported by Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS and Fedora v17+ distributions, the Calxeda
EnergyCore SoC has been shown to run popular software platforms including Cloud Management
software from Openstack, Big Data technologies such as Hadoop, Cassandra, applications
built in Java, Ruby on Rails, Python and the popular LAMP stack.

    Manoj Nayee, Managing Director of Boston Limited, said, "After months of development
and excitement, Boston is delighted to begin distributing our Calxeda ARM-based Viridis
servers. With around 90% improvements in energy efficiency and density, we are seeing a
huge level of interest from customers across the globe!"

    Karl Freund, VP of Marketing of Calxeda, said "Boston is enabling the developing
ARM-server ecosystem the opportunity to test and experiment with one of the biggest
game-changers in the data centre featuring our EnergyCore SOC. We are excited to be
working closely with the engineering team at Boston to bring this technology to market."

    About Boston Limited

    With nearly 20 years of trading within the distribution and OEM marketplace, Boston
continues to lead the way in providing the latest high-performance, power-optimized
technologies into the data centre, HPC, ISP, Military, VFX, Enterprise and Broadcast
markets with multi-award winning server, storage, workstation and clustered solutions.
Since the successful launch of Boston IT Solutions (India) Private Limited in 2009, we
announced the launch of Boston Server & Storage Solutions GmbH in 2010. Expansion into
both regions has been driven purely by market demand for alternate vendors providing
high-performance and high value-add systems. As our global reach continues to expand we
plan on opening further global facilities to improve and expand the services we offer. For

MTN Satellite Communications and Wireless Maritime Services (WMS) Outfits New Carnival Breeze with Integrated Voice and Data Communications

Services Enable Users to Access Information from any Mobile Device from Anywhere on the Ship While at Sea

MIRAMAR, Fla., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MTN Satellite Communications (MTN), the global provider of communications, connectivity and content services to remote locations around the world and Wireless Maritime Services (WMS), the world leader in cellular service to the cruise line and ferry industry, today announced unprecedented services to Carnival Cruise Lines' newest ship, Carnival Breeze, during her first month in service. Carnival leveraged the telecommunications expertise of MTN and WMS to deliver a "shore-side" experience to more than 4,000 passengers and nearly 1,800 crew members on each sailing. Carnival Breeze began a summer schedule of European cruises June 3 and will launch year-round Caribbean service from Miami starting November 24, 2012.

MTN's VSAT services exceeded the connectivity demands of the crew, passengers and corporate communications requirements during its inaugural month. Carnival Breeze also leveraged MTN's Internet Café solution delivering access to passengers and crew on mobile devices such as tablets, smart phones and laptops as well as fixed PCs to stay connected while at sea. Additionally, MTN integrated this seamless connection with Carnival's FunHub portal to provide passengers with immediate digital access to all of the Breeze's ship services, facilities, daily activities and social media.

"New services introduced to the Carnival Breeze created unique challenges to provide ship-wide coverage for telecommunication services, and we knew there would be a heavy demand for onboard cellular and Internet, especially in our inaugural month," said Eric Merz, Carnival's Director of Guest Technology.  "During all phases, from the yard, to testing, to having onboard support, both MTN and WMS have proven to be critical partners. The integration of our FunHub to the Internet, the call management and calling solutions has truly brought a full telecommunications solution to Carnival, our guests and crew."

Wireless Maritime Services (WMS), a joint venture of AT&T and MTN, launched cellular calling, texting and data services for guests and crew onboard the Carnival Breeze. "We are delighted to be Carnival Cruise Lines' exclusive cellular service provider on their entire fleet of 24 vessels. During Carnival Breeze's first month in service, WMS carried tens of thousands of voice calls to and from the ship.  In addition, on June 20th a live Twitter chat session was held onboard Carnival Breeze inaugural highlighting the cellular voice, text and data services available to passengers and crew. Stewart Chiron, cruise expert, known in the industry as 'The Cruise Guy(®),' fielded live questions while sailing in the Mediterranean Sea. The session resulted in over 2.6 million impressions which helped spread the word about Carnival's newest ship and the communication services available onboard," said Jim McKenna, Vice President of Customer Support and Product Management for WMS.

"There is clearly a demand by users to access data from their personal mobile devices as well as having the ability to surf the Internet while at sea," said Brent Horwitz, Senior Vice President and General Manager for MTN Cruise and Ferry Services. "The number of Internet and mobile minutes used on the inaugural sailing of the Carnival Breeze underscores the importance of today's society of staying connected even while on vacation. MTN is proud of our collective success with Carnival over the years, and will be introducing more exciting technology innovations to the maritime market later this year."

Through MTN's exceptionally reliable VSAT solutions, a comprehensive portfolio of onboard revenue opportunities is offered to cruise line partners. The products and services, which add to the overall cruising experience, include remote access for Internet, fixed and mobile phones, MTN Worldwide Television, OceanPhone crew calling, a payroll solution for crew and other enterprise solutions.

The WMS solution delivers seamless cellular connectivity to guests and crew members just as they would on land, at sea beyond any land based towers. Connectivity is activated when the ship leaves port and turned off when in range of land based providers. WMS provides uninterrupted service to guests and crew so they can stay in touch with family, friends or business associates back home while they enjoy the experiences of their cruise. Guests and crew can make and receive calls, send text messages, access email and surf the Internet at rates similar to roaming internationally.

Digital Net Agency Launches Clicks-for-a-Cause: Search Marketing Aid for Charities and Non-profits

Unique pro-bono program helps charitable causes drive traffic to increase fundraising, membership, volunteers and awareness

DALLAS, Pa., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Net Agency, Inc. (DNA), a new, performance-based search agency, announced today it is offering a comprehensive pro-bono program, Clicks-for-a-Cause, that leverages the agency's deep expertise in search marketing.  DNA's Clicks-for-a-Cause helps charities and non-profits rise to the top of search engines, driving traffic to increase fundraising, membership, volunteers and awareness.

"The current economic environment presents significant challenges to the fundraising efforts of today's non-profits and charities, and tight budgets allow little room for marketing," said Digital Net Agency CEO Aaron Baker. "Search marketing is one of the most cost-efficient, effective and critical forms of marketing and DNA's total-performance search marketing expertise can help non-profits rapidly turn up their online traffic. Giving back, especially today when so many are in need, is very important to DNA which is why we have developed this unique program."

Clicks-for-a-Cause is open to any non-profit organization and the company adopts 4-8 organizations a year for the program, depending on the complexity of the organizations' needs. DNA works with each non-profit to determine what is most crucial for its sustainability and, more importantly, growth, i.e. more volunteers, more donations, etc., and then focuses on jumpstarting a search engine marketing and/or search engine optimization program around that specific goal.

DNA, which has offices in Pennsylvania and New York City, launched last month to upend traditional agency models, with a focus on maximizing agency accountability and minimizing client risk, all while fueling massive client growth.  The agency was founded and is staffed by a team of veterans from Top 10 Search agencies, who have helped hundreds of advertisers - from start-ups to Fortune 500 brands - manage the most complex search programs in the world, while propelling them to the top of the search engines. Dedicated to putting talent, research, technology and proven strategies at the forefront of its business, DNA offers unique revenue and equity-based models to its clients. 

Organizations interested in applying for DNA's Clicks-for-a-Cause program should contact: info@digitalnetagency.com or 866.DNA.1275.

NETGEAR's WiFi Booster for Mobile Eliminates WiFi Dead Spots and Provides Better Wireless Signal Strength and Coverage for all Your Mobile Devices at Home

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQGM: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today announced the WiFi Booster for Mobile (WN1000RP). The compact, WiFi Booster for Mobile amplifies WiFi coverage for mobile devices in the home by extending and strengthening an existing WiFi signal, giving consumers the ability to enjoy an improved wireless experience on tablets, smartphones and e-readers.

The NETGEAR WiFi Booster for Mobile enables users to surf the Internet and stream content using WiFi, unconstrained by mobile data plan usage limits.

NETGEAR's WiFi Booster for Mobile repeats a 2.4 GHz WiFi signal from existing routers and gateways to boost range and WiFi performance. It has a small form factor and is simple to install with a mobile-friendly browser-based setup and real-time LED indicators helping to determine optimal placement to ensure the best WiFi coverage. With the small wall-plug design and NETGEAR's Push 'n' Connect (WPS) feature, the WiFi Booster for Mobile connects quickly and easily once plugged into a power outlet and provides an instant and secure connection to any existing WiFi network.

"Consumers today want the best connected experience, complete with the ability to enjoy online entertainment on their WiFi connected mobile devices throughout the home," said Damir Skripic, product line manager for connected entertainment at NETGEAR. "The NETGEAR WiFi Booster for Mobile enables this experience by significantly increasing WiFi coverage in the home, which is ideal for roaming iPads, iPhones, Android tablets, Kindle e-readers, smartphones or any other mobile WiFi devices."

The NETGEAR WiFi Booster for Mobile will be available at major retailers in summer 2012 starting at $39.99.

Partnership Opens New Doors for World Leader in Geospatial Solutions

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A powerful new partnership between Intergraph Government Solutions and Alvarez and Associates emerged within the federal geospatial landscape today.

Along with these standard products and services, the contract allows new products to be added daily based on specific user requirements.  This creates a dynamic geospatial catalog where product availability is based on requests, not requests based on availability.

revenues, and social media is no different," said Ivar Kroghrud, CEO for QuestBack. "Our
