Hill-Rom Announces Two Key Agreements To Enhance NaviCare(R) WatchChild(R) Solution Adding To Effectiveness of Perinatal Monitoring- Agreement with AirStrip Technologies, L.P. creates virtual real-time access to patient data for enhanced comprehensive obstetrical data management via mobile devices.- New relationship with ExitCare, LLC, adds important educational component increasing caregiver communication effectiveness.

BATESVILLE, Ind., June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hill-Rom today announced two new agreements to enhance and add integrated functions and value for the company's NaviCare(R) WatchChild(R) solution.

The agreement with AirStrip Technologies brings the value of the innovative AirStrip OB(TM) product. This state-of-the-art software application allows obstetricians to use their own PDAs and Smartphones to remotely access virtual real-time waveform data for both the mother and fetus, increasing the physician's ability to closely monitor their patients. The interface between Hill-Rom's WatchChild solution and AirStrip OB will be configured to function with Hill-Rom's original WatchChild solution as well as the enhanced version introduced this past April.

In addition, Hill-Rom's relationship with ExitCare, L.L.C. will integrate an educational component, the ExitCare Labor & Delivery product, consisting of hundreds of Labor & Delivery patient education topics augmented with color illustrations. ExitCare Labor & Delivery provides an important tool to facilitate communication between clinicians with patients and family members.

"The NaviCare WatchChild solution has been extremely well received since the introduction of the enhanced version just a little over two months ago," said Adam McMullin, vice president, Marketing and Strategy, Hill-Rom IT Solutions. "We are excited to form relationships with two innovative partners in AirStrip Technologies and ExitCare, L.L.C. to enhance the value of our WatchChild solutions. We know these additions will help caregivers help their patients and ultimately, enhance outcomes for them. That's a powerful proposition and one we are pleased to be able to bring to market together."

GPRO Cuts Authoring and Translation Time Up to Six-Fold Using MadCap Lingo and Flare From MadCap SoftwareMadCap Software's Integrated Content Authoring and Translation Memory System Enables Greater Customization of GPRO's Localized Online and Print Documentation

SAN DIEGO, June 23 /PRNewswire/ -- MadCap Software, the leader in multi-channel content authoring and a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and Microsoft XPS showcase company, today announced that GPRO Technologies Berhad has cut its time for documentation authoring and translation up to six-fold using MadCap Lingo and MadCap Flare.

"We are at the forefront of our industry, which is highly competitive, especially in India and China," said Daniel Ng, manager of knowledge management at GPRO Technologies Berhad. "Documentation is a significant way we can differentiate ourselves, and MadCap Lingo and Flare are enabling us to provide a consistent, high quality experience, regardless of language or format."

GPRO is a leading Malaysian-based technology company that delivers state-of-the-art radio frequency ID (RFID) based IT solutions and technologies for the textile and apparel industry worldwide. With a strong Asian customer base, GPRO makes its technology solutions-along with the supporting documentation-available in English, simplified Chinese, and traditional Chinese versions. Since April 2008, GPRO has used the combination of MadCap Lingo and MadCap Flare to implement a completely integrated and efficient solution for content authoring, translation memory and publishing. Where it once took up to six months to deliver a documentation project, GPRO now uses MadCap Lingo and Flare to complete the project in just one month.

MadCap's native-XML software products, which are tightly integrated and fully support Unicode for single- and double-byte languages, replace GPRO's original authoring tools: Adobe RoboHelp for English-language content and Quadralay WebWorks for Chinese-language documentation.

"The lack of integrated products in the past meant that any time there was a change or correction to the documentation, we would have to retranslate large portions of the content to ensure that we caught all the updates. It was very frustrating for everyone," Mr. Ng explained. "Using the integrated functionality of MadCap Lingo and Flare, we can preserve our links, formatting, and other data. Now our translator can focus on localization and not recreating the document. The efficiencies we've gained have been as dramatic as moving from a typewriter to using Microsoft Word."

GPRO documentation team members who once relied on different products, all use MadCap Flare for content authoring, making it easier to collaborate. Once the documentation is created, GPRO's translator can access the Flare project from within MadCap Lingo to localize the content. Because the content never actually leaves the structure of the original Flare project, all the content and formatting is preserved in the translated version. If there are any subsequent changes to the documentation, MadCap Lingo will identify them, so that the translator can immediately focus on just those revisions. From a single Flare project, GPRO can choose to publish documentation online or in print-in any of the three language versions. More recently, GPRO has begun using MadCap Analyzer to optimize the structure of content within Flare prior to its translation and publishing.

"MadCap's software is so tightly integrated. Everything we learned in Flare, we have been able to apply to MadCap Lingo and Analyzer. It's saved us a lot of time," said Mr. Ng. "We like the reusable snippets, cross references and links in Flare, and we love MadCap Lingo's integration with the Google translation service. All of these features make it so much easier to create and translate our documentation than we ever imagined." Mr. Ng also credits MadCap's service and support for enabling GPRO to get up and running so quickly, saying, "MadCap's award-winning technical support; knowledge bases; and lively, responsive community are a model for the best-in-class experience we want to deliver to our own customers."

With the time saved using MadCap's authoring and translation software, GPRO has been able to address a range of customer requests. One is providing print versions of its HTML-based documentation, which was difficult to produce prior to implementing MadCap Lingo and Flare. Additionally with Flare, GPRO now has the single-sourcing functionality to easily publish the subsets of projects that some businesses request.

"We have some factory managers that just want a short reference guide, not the entire document. In other cases, the seamstresses want to have printed instructions next to their sewing machines," explains Mr. Ng. "With MadCap Lingo and Flare, we can support these requests in as little as a day, and that has translated into happy customers."

The extra time also is enabling GPRO to create a new revenue-generating product. It has begun developing consulting documentation that will be sold as part of the training and consulting services GPRO provides on how to use its solutions. Because of Flare's modular design, the consulting materials can be easily customized for different customer engagements.

"GPRO is using state-of-the-art technology to provide a bridge between the traditional textile and apparel businesses, and a global market powered by the Internet," said MadCap CEO Anthony Olivier. "We are thrilled by the outstanding customer service and productivity gains that GPRO has realized in using our cutting-edge MadCap Lingo, Flare and Analyzer software to meet the multi-channel, multi-lingual needs of its customers. GPRO is a powerful example of the efficiencies that can be gained using our integrated software -- and that the global documentation industry has been desperately seeking for so long. We look forward to further contributing to GPRO's success as it expands language support to meet growing worldwide demand for its solutions."

TI achieves best noise performance and dynamic range with new 16-bit analog-to-digital converter and low-jitter clock combinationSolution delivers highest SNR and SFDR for demanding communications, defense, and test and measurement applications

DALLAS, June 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) today introduced a 16-bit, single-channel, 135 mega samples per second (MSPS) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a low-jitter clock synthesizer. The combined signal chain solution provides unmatched dynamic system-level performance in communications, defense, and test and measurement applications. The data converter and clock are available on the same evaluation module (EVM) to facilitate fast evaluations of these complex systems. (See http://www.ti.com/ads5483-pr.)

Low noise enhances performance in wide-bandwidth applications

The ADS5483 ADC has the industry's highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) over comparable ADCs on the market, for input frequencies from DC through the second Nyquist zone. Sampling at 135 MSPS, the ADC can achieve a SNR of 78.6 dBFS with 95 dBc SFDR for a 70-MHz input frequency (IF), which is up to 3.5 dB greater SNR or 8 dB greater SFDR over comparable ADCs. The higher performance of the ADS5483 increases design flexibility and benefits many applications. For example, it offers greater accuracy for test and measurement systems and higher sensitivity with larger bandwidths in wireless communication including air interfaces, such as WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, WiMAX, LTE and multi-carrier 3GSM.

In wide-bandwidth applications, the ADS5483 eases analog front-end design by incorporating a fully differential input buffer, a common feature across TI's family of ADS54xx ADCs. Developed in TI's BiCom3 high-speed process technology, this buffer provides constant input impedance over input frequency and eliminates kickback from the ADC's track-and-hold structure to ensure consistent linearity of the signal. In addition, unlike competitive ADCs, the ADS5483 utilizes differential double data rate (DDR) LVDS outputs to significantly reduce the number of I/O traces and pins it consumes on FPGA or ASIC devices.

Highly flexible clock enables system-level performance

The ultra-low jitter CDCE72010 clock synthesizer provides best-in-class additive jitter performance at less than 50 femtoseconds (fs), which meets the jitter requirements to clock high-speed ADCs, such as the ADS5483. For example, the combined EVM using the CDCE72010 and a crystal band pass filter to drive the ADS5483 at 122.8 MSPS achieves a high system-level SNR of 78.0 dBFS SNR and 89.1 dBc SFDR with a 100-MHz input frequency.

The new clock synthesizer can accommodate a wide range of frequencies to meet the requirements of various systems, such as wireless base stations or test and measurement equipment. It can support up to 10 LVPECL, 10 LVDS or 20 LVCMOS configurable outputs at frequencies up to 1.5 GHz and input frequencies from 8 KHz up to 500 MHz. Designers can integrate two frequency sets within one clock synthesizer with the option of two external VCO/VCXOs. The CDCE72010's on-chip EEPROM stores default settings, which allows designers to reduce system start-up time and eliminates the need for an external component.

Tools and signal chain solutions ease development and enable rapid evaluation

The ADS5483 and the CDCE72010 are available on the same EVM to facilitate fast evaluations of complex systems. To provide designers with frequency planning flexibility, the EVM includes an open socket for the VCXO and crystal filter as well as bypass for an external source clock input. TI also offers the TSW1200 digital capture tool, available across a wide portfolio of TI's high-speed LVDS-output ADCs.

China Security & Surveillance Technology Announces Recent Business Developments

Company Reiterates 2Q08 and FY08 Financial Forecast

SHENZHEN, China, June 23 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- China Security & Surveillance Technology, Inc. ('The Company' & 'CSST'), a leading provider of digital surveillance technology in the PRC, today announced recent notable business developments, with two new project wins in Beijing, Safe City Project updates in Kunming City and Yinchuan City, and a Strategic Partnership Memorandum with IBM Global Financing. The Company today also reiterates its second quarter and full year of 2008 financial forecast.

CSST has recently won two new security projects in Beijing, the first time the Company has ever won projects in this city. This first project is with The People's Bank of China to provide security surveillance solutions in its central office in Beijing. Separately, CSST has also been selected to be the sole contractor to implement a video surveillance platform within a 30 kilometer radius of the Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) in Beijing City. The new surveillance system will enable the existing airport security operations centers to simultaneously monitor various remote sites, which include secured airport areas and public parking lots. Together, these two new projects in Beijing are valued at approximately RMB 55 million (approximately USD $8.0 million). The Company expects to begin realizing revenues from these two projects in the fourth quarter of 2008.

''This is a great honor to win such notable projects in a tier one city such as Beijing,'' said Mr. Guoshen Tu, Chief Executive Officer of China Security. ''These two new wins indicate the continued progress our team is making in extending our growth and business expansion within China. We are particularly encouraged by the two project wins in Beijing given that we have historically focused on delivering solutions within China's tier 2 and 3 cities. We will continue to press forward with our plans of expanding our security and surveillance business solutions in China.''

The Company also announced that implementation for two of its largest Safe City projects: Kunming City (valued at RMB 209.4 million) and Yinchuan City (valued at RMB 260 million), which were signed in March and May of this year, have already started. The Company will start to utilize its financing facility from China Construction Bank to fund the working capital requirements of the project in Kunming City.

In addition, the Company is pleased to announce signing a Strategic Partnership Memorandum with IBM Global Financing (IGF), a division of IBM , to obtain lease financing facilities for Safe City projects within China.

''We are proud to have the opportunity to work with a world class organization like IBM Global Financing,'' Said Mr. Tu. ''We believe that our partnership with IBM will enable CSST to further expand its Safe City projects in China by utilizing financing facilities to address working capital needs for the larger government Safe City projects. We look forward to this strategic partnership with IBM Global Financing.''

For the second quarter of 2008, the Company reiterates its revenue estimate of US$85-$87 million, adjusted net income of US$15.9-$16.5 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.36-$0.38. The Company also reiterates its financial forecast for full year 2008 revenue of US$380-$400 million, adjusted net income of $70-$76 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.59-$1.76.

Mr. Guoshen Tu, commented, ''We are confident that the security and surveillance industry in China and globally will continue to grow significantly. Our business fundamentals and operations continue in accordance to our business plans. We are highly focused on maintaining steady and deliberate progress towards our key growth objectives.''

Study Shows Severe Financial Impact Caused by IT/Business DisconnectFindings Show That End-user Experience Monitoring Key to Effective SLAs, IT Performance and Cost Control

DETROIT, June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Compuware Corporation today announced the results of a study commissioned by Compuware and conducted by Forrester Consulting that found while 81 percent of organizations have adopted formal service level agreements (SLAs), they only meet these agreements 74 percent of the time on average. Many companies also report that poor application performance results in increased costs and lost revenue. In the study, Forrester Consulting concludes that the primary reason for missing SLAs is that the business unit has expectations out of the reach of IT.

A key reason given for this mismatch in expectations is the use of service level metrics that are IT-centric and are not compatible with business objectives. The Forrester study found that 41 percent of respondents agreed that their insight into service levels is basic, and that they don't provide SLA information to executives on a regular basis. In addition, 40 percent of those surveyed agreed that their service level reporting lacks information that their executives have requested.

"By relying solely on technology-focused metrics, IT is missing an opportunity to engage in effective dialogue with the business to move toward proactive service management," said Steve Tack, Vice President, ITSM, Compuware.

According to Tack, end-user experience (EUE) monitoring addresses these challenges by providing IT with visibility into the quality of service from the end user's perspective. EUE allows IT to communicate more effectively with the business, establish realistic and shared expectations and effectively prioritize efforts according to business impact.

According to Jean-Pierre Garbani, Vice President and Principal Analyst with Forrester Research, "The ultimate judge of IT and business alignment is the end user: If alignment is viewed as conformity to user expectations in terms of availability, performance, usability, and accuracy, then monitoring end user performance is the only way IT knows that it is meeting these expectations." (The Forrester Wave: Application Based End-User Experience Monitoring, Q2 2007, Forrester Research, Inc., June 2007).

When asked about the cost of poor application performance, 57 percent of respondents in the commissioned study stated increased costs to the business as a result; 48 percent reported that poor performance resulted in lost revenue. This demonstrates a clear understanding of the potentially dramatic financial impact resulting from poorly managed IT service. Other reasons given for financial impact to the business include negative impacts to external customer satisfaction (48 percent) slows or stops in production (42 percent) and a negative impact on sales performance.

Compuware Vantage helps organizations effectively monitor service, prioritize issues according to business impact and quickly resolve problems through industry-leading end user experience monitoring and application performance management with the broadest application coverage for both web and non-web applications.

Forrester Consulting, Inc. conducted the independent online survey of 389 technology decision-makers who are actively involved in service level management and application performance management. This custom research was sponsored by Compuware Corporation who had no impact on the results. The Forrester-authored study with analysis of the results is available at http://www.compuware.com/slmstudy .

Winner of $100,000 Microsoft Office Live Workspace Sweepstakes SelectedDavid Austin, graduate student, wins grand prize for using Office Live Workspace.

REDMOND, Wash., June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Microsoft Office Live Workspace team presented David Austin with his $100,000 grand prize today, as part of the Office Live Workspace sweepstakes that kicked off when the service launched on March 3, 2008. Participants entered for a chance to win by signing up for their own Workspace, and earned up to two bonus entries for uploading their first document to their Office Live Workspace account and the first time they shared a document or Workspace with others. The winner could choose to use the grand prize to fund a favorite charity, an education or build a business.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO)

Austin, a Seattle-based graduate student in the Library and Information Science program at the University of Washington (UW), was introduced to Office Live Workspace during one of his courses at UW, where he was studying various collaborative solutions such as Office Live Workspace.

The access to documents from virtually anywhere that Office Live Workspace provided was an attractive feature for Austin.

"I was drawn to the portability and access to my documents, even when I didn't have my laptop with me, so I signed up for it as soon as I heard about it," Austin said. "I currently use Office Live Workspace to keep my work schedule and school papers -- both Word and Excel files -- in one safe place. I plan to use this service even more in my grad program next year as I work on projects that will require me to share and collaborate on Microsoft Office documents with others."

University of Washington Professor and His Students Collaborate Using Workspace

In another classroom at the University of Washington, Michael Eisenberg, professor of informatics, invited approximately 35 students in his INFO 300 class to use Office Live Workspace for a series of collaborative group projects and labs. The students worked together on assignments and presentations within their Workspaces and could share them with each other or Eisenberg via their individual or group Workspaces for feedback. The students and Eisenberg also collaborated on classwide documents such as a compilation of definitions and explanations of key emerging technologies.

"Office Live Workspace allows for highly secure access of documents and collaboration among my students, and between my students and me," Eisenberg said. "The collaborative properties of Workspace are beneficial in that my students are working more efficiently -- there's no flooding of e-mail inboxes with multiple drafts of a common document, and when working on a project together they're able to see other classmates' changes to documents in real time."

Eisenberg said this Live service also offers him some peace of mind: "My curriculum materials are in one very secure place -- my Workspace," Eisenberg said. "I'm confident that my syllabus won't disappear or my draft of an exam isn't on a USB drive somewhere. My students have shared similar feedback. To me, Office Live Workspace brings to life the key benefits of online cloud computing -- anywhere access, collaboration and information security."

How Will He Spend the Grand Prize?

Austin was selected randomly from a pool of hundreds of thousands of entries. Once the shock wears off, he plans to use the $100,000 toward funding his graduate education, and may put money toward a down payment on a house in the future.

In total, an assortment of more than 30,000 daily and weekly prizes were given away as part of the sweepstakes, including Xbox 360 Elite video game systems, Samsung Blackjack II Smartphone devices, 30GB Zune digital media players, Expedia hotel and package coupons, and Microsoft Office Professional 2007.

Office Live Workspace is available at http://www.workspace.officelive.com/. People can contribute to the Office Live Workspace forum and provide feedback at http://www.officeliveworkspacecommunity.com/.

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

AT&T, Covisint and Microsoft to Deliver Nationwide Health-Information Exchange Connecting Patient and Provider CommunitiesInnovative Solution Gives More Control to Patients and Provides Two-Way Medical Record Access and Collaboration

SAN ANTONIO, REDMOND, Wash. and DETROIT, June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T Inc. , Covisint, which is a subsidiary of Compuware Corp. , and Microsoft Corp. today announced a major eHealth initiative -- a nationwide information exchange -- to enhance the health care experience for patients and practitioners alike.

The new eHealth information exchange is a revolutionary approach designed to reduce costs and improve the quality of care while putting patients in control of their medical records. It allows consumers using Microsoft(R) HealthVault(TM), a software- and service-based platform for storing and accessing personal health information, to share information with authorized physicians and health care providers connected to AT&T Healthcare Community Online.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN)-based portal, AT&T Healthcare Community Online is founded on two AT&T patents that enable electronic health care data exchange among existing systems of health care providers and physicians. AT&T Healthcare Community Online offers managed services, applications and authentication services and promotes the widespread adoption of health- information technology by providing authorized doctors, hospitals, pharmacies, labs and patients with access to test results, prescription records, best practices and medical histories.

The new eHealth information exchange, enabled by Covisint's On-Demand Healthcare Platform and layered on AT&T's patented eHealth solutions and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network, shares information electronically and in a security-enhanced way across the continuum of care -- from patient to provider communities such as HealthVault, health-information exchanges and insurers.

The new exchange platform brings together the key elements required to establish comprehensive interoperability and collaboration communities for national, state and local health-information exchanges, enabling such applications as:

* Prescribing pharmaceuticals online (also known as "ePrescribing"). * Providing clinical messaging among health care providers. * Sharing high-density images, including X-rays, MRIs and CT scans. * Exchanging patient-aggregated information via portable health records, which provides patient profiles, medical history, prescriptions, etc. * Uploading of data from home health devices such as blood pressure meters, glucometers, etc., allowing for remote diagnostics and chronic disease monitoring and management. * A streamlined clinical and administrative process.

This platform is highly scalable and may be rapidly deployed to large and small health-information exchanges as a hosted and managed service by subscribers to AT&T Healthcare Community Online. In addition, AT&T's connectivity offerings, combined with Covisint's platform, enable health care organizations to quickly establish high speed Internet and VPN connectivity to the extended health care community.

After broad-based communities are connected, authorized community members will immediately be able to access clinical applications, share health information and collaborate on specific medical cases. AT&T's managed telemedicine services enable patients in rural or underserved areas to consult with medical specialists and even receive examinations in the comfort of their primary physician's office, community hospital or clinic.

"Through our cooperative efforts with AT&T and Covisint, we are giving consumers the opportunity to make informed choices regarding their health and the health of their families by putting them in more control of their personal health information," said Peter Neupert, corporate vice president of Microsoft Health Solutions Group.

Roman Pacewicz, senior vice president, Regional Business Marketing for AT&T, said: "AT&T is committed to applying technology that will transform the delivery of health care, enhance operational efficiencies and, ultimately, improve the quality of life. We're proud to be working with Microsoft and Covisint to help enhance the health care experience, offering anytime, anywhere delivery of care and medical information."

HealthVault is designed to put people in control of their health data. It helps them collect, store and share health information with authorized family members and participating health care providers, and it provides people with a choice of third-party applications and devices to help them manage things such as fitness, diet and health. HealthVault also provides a privacy- and security-enhanced foundation on which a broad ecosystem of providers -- from medical providers and health and wellness device manufacturers to health associations -- can build innovative new health and wellness solutions to help put people in control of their and their family's health.

The Covisint platform enables improved security and accuracy in providing quality care. Covisint's comprehensive interoperability framework enables extended health care communities to effectively collaborate between physicians and practices, health systems and hospitals, health plans, labs and other third-party community members.

The Covisint solution brings together all health care data available from a wide variety of disparate systems under the context of a specific patient and aggregates this information into a single portal dashboard, which is then made available to the patient's physician. This capability -- along with the ability to perform cross-domain single sign-on -- enables all applications and data from the extended health care community to be brought together and behave as one cohesive application.

"This alliance focuses on the fundamental problems facing every health care interoperability initiative today: privacy, complexity and cost," said Brett Furst, vice president of Health Care for Covisint. "For the first time, institutions, communities and consumers can leverage a secure on-demand framework connecting patients and caregivers in a matter of days, rather than months -- or even years."

The new eHealth information exchange, which was showcased earlier this month at the Microsoft HealthVault Solutions Conference in Bellevue, Wash., extends the capabilities announced in February by AT&T regarding Tennessee's statewide eHealth information exchange, which is also secured by Covisint's platform.

Photos: Watsco Launches ACDoctor.com to Help Conserve Home Energy UseNew Website Helps Consumers Research Energy Efficient Air Conditioning Solutions

COCONUT GROVE, Fla., June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Watsco, Inc. announced today the launch of ACDoctor.com, a new consumer-friendly website that offers educational tools to help homeowners identify energy efficient cooling systems to help save money -- and reduce negative impacts of global warming.

To view the Multimedia News Release, go to: http://www.prnewswire.com/mnr/acdoctor/33720/

The heating and cooling of homes accounts for nearly 56 percent of residential energy use in the United States -- totaling $66.5 billion per year! Upgrading heating and cooling systems may be the most effective way to reduce residential energy consumption over the long term, while decreasing electricity bills and potentially improving indoor air quality along the way.

According to the US Energy Information Administration, more than 57 million homes in the United States have central air conditioning systems, with 32.1 million units in the Southern region alone. Upgrading a standard 13 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) air conditioning unit to a 16 SEER system with a programmable thermostat can reduce cooling costs by 25 percent and up to 40 percent if a 21 SEER system is installed.

To keep consumers savvy, ACDoctor.com features energy saving calculators and tips on keeping energy bills low, energy efficiency high and improving the quality of indoor air. Users can compare HVAC systems, connect with high quality contractors and locate financial incentives to make purchases easy and affordable. With a range of brands and investment options, ACDoctor.com can help write the prescription for a greener home environment.

ATK Conducts First of a Series of Tests for the Ares I-X First Stage Separation SystemAres I First Stage Joint Severance Test a Success

MINNEAPOLIS, June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alliant Techsystems recently conducted a successful full-scale severance test of an Ares I-X first stage. The test is a milestone in the development of NASA's Ares I crew launch vehicle and is another step leading to the flight test of Ares I-X in Spring 2009.

The test consisted of a replicated Ares I-X first stage forward skirt extension and forward skirt stacked and suspended two feet above the ground. A linear-shape charge was detonated, detaching the two pieces of hardware horizontally. During an actual flight, once the first stage separates from the upper stage, the solid rocket booster will start to fall and at a predetermined altitude the forward skirt extension joint will be severed to facilitate deployment of the parachute recovery system. The first stage is designed to land in the ocean where it can be recovered for reuse.

This ground test was ATK's first-ever demonstration of joint severance on a simulated first stage and was the first in a series of three Ares I-X First Stage tests scheduled to demonstrate elements of the launch vehicle's joint severance capability.

The next two demonstration tests of the system are scheduled for July 2008. During the second test, the system will sever the first stage forward skirt extension from the first stage frustum. The third test will again demonstrate severance of the forward skirt and the forward skirt extension joint.

Ares I first stage is comprised of a five-segment reusable booster developed from the twin four-segment boosters used to launch the space shuttle. Unlike the shuttle, Ares I is an in-line launch vehicle design with a crew capsule on top. Instead of a nose cone, the booster will connect to the upper stage with an attachment called a frustum. This design requires the first stage to be separated at the top, rather than falling off the side of the external tank as with the space shuttle.

Ares I and the Orion crew exploration vehicle will become America's primary space transportation system after the space shuttle is retired in 2010. Ares I will continue to service the International Space Station and eventually send humans to the moon. ATK is the prime contractor for the Ares I first stage

CBS Corporation Successfully Completes the Initial Offering Period of its Tender Offer and Will Acquire Control of CNET Networks, Inc.; Announces Subsequent Offering Period

NEW YORK, June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CBS Corporation announced today that it has successfully completed the initial offering period of its tender offer for all outstanding shares of common stock of CNET Networks, Inc. . Approximately 78% of the outstanding shares of common stock of CNET have been tendered, which will make CNET a majority owned subsidiary of CBS Corporation.

The initial offering period and withdrawal rights expired at 12:00 midnight, ET, on Friday, June 20, 2008, with a total of approximately 119.2 million shares of CNET common stock being validly tendered and not withdrawn (including approximately 10.8 million shares subject to guarantees of delivery), representing approximately 78% of all outstanding shares. All shares that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on or prior to that time have been accepted for purchase. CBS Corporation will promptly issue payment for all such shares, at the offer price of $11.50 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes.

Upon acceptance for payment of, and payment for, the tender offer shares, the merger agreement grants CBS Corporation the right to designate a number of individuals to the CNET Board of Directors who, following their election, will constitute a majority of the CNET Board of Directors.

CBS Corporation also announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Ten Acquisition Corp., has commenced a subsequent offering period to acquire all of the remaining untendered shares of common stock of CNET. The subsequent offering period will expire at 12:00 midnight, ET, on Wednesday, June 25, 2008, unless extended. During this subsequent offering period, holders of shares of CNET common stock who did not previously tender their shares into the offer may do so, and Ten Acquisition Corp. will promptly purchase any shares properly tendered, for the same consideration (without interest) paid in the initial offering period of the tender offer. Procedures for tendering shares during the subsequent offering period are the same as during the initial offering period, with two exceptions: (1) shares cannot be delivered by the guaranteed delivery procedure and (2) pursuant to Rule 14d-7(a)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, shares tendered during the subsequent offering period may not be withdrawn. CBS Corporation and Ten Acquisition Corp. reserve the right to extend the subsequent offering period in accordance with applicable law.

After the expiration of the subsequent offering period, CBS Corporation will acquire all of the remaining outstanding shares of CNET common stock through a merger under Delaware law. With the purchase of shares in the tender offer, CBS will have sufficient voting power to approve the merger without the affirmative vote of any other CNET stockholder. As a result of this merger, CNET will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CBS Corporation, and each outstanding share of CNET common stock will be cancelled and (except for shares held by CBS or Ten Acquisition Corp., or shares for which appraisal rights are properly demanded) will be converted into the right to receive the same consideration, without interest, received by holders who tendered in the tender offer. Thereafter, CNET common stock will cease to be traded on the NASDAQ Global Market.

MacKenzie Partners, Inc. is the Information Agent for the tender offer. For questions and information regarding the tender offer and the subsequent offering period, please call MacKenzie Partners, Inc. at (800) 322-2885 (toll-free).

Verizon Wireless Continues Support of National HIV Testing Awareness CampaignCompany Working with Education and Public Health Experts to Raise Public Awareness Via Mobile Media

ALPHARETTA, Ga., June 23 /PRNewswire/ -- The message about the importance of HIV testing is getting out to the general public, thanks to the innovative use of wireless communications. Verizon Wireless, the company with the nation's most reliable wireless voice and data network, announced today its continued effort to draw awareness to the importance of HIV testing and encourage everyone to know their status. In honor of National HIV Testing Day on June 27, an annual event organized by the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA), Personal Public Service Announcements (PPSAs) -- created from "man on the street" interviews captured in Atlanta using wireless video phones and technology -- will be broadcast via a variety of channels on the Web, television and through the Verizon Wireless network.

In partnership with the University of Georgia's New Media Institute and with the support of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Verizon Wireless participated in events in Atlanta and Philadelphia over the past year, making wireless phones a new medium in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The use of the PPSAs created at the Atlanta event for National HIV Testing Day is the culmination of those efforts.

"It's exciting to see how wireless equipment and our network can capture and make available critical health messages to the public at large," said Jeff Mango, president of the Georgia/Alabama region for Verizon Wireless. "Wireless technology no longer is just a one-to-one communication tool. It serves a much broader social networking role in our individual lives and in our communities. It's critical that we all continue to harness the power and reach of wireless technology for the greater good."

In both Philadelphia in 2007 and Atlanta in 2008, public service announcement videos were created by college students and delivered on personal mobile media devices. Using Verizon Wireless phones and data equipment, student teams from Emory University, the University of South Carolina, Clark Atlanta University, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of Technology, Temple University, Chapman University, and the University of North Texas collaborated during each event with health experts from the CDC, as well as professional producers and editors from around the country, to shoot, edit, produce, and premiere short video PPSAs encouraging HIV testing. These PPSAs will be distributed ahead of June 27 to increase the awareness of the upcoming National HIV Testing Day.

The videos will be distributed in a variety of ways including e-cards, podcasting on key Internet sites, e-mail distribution, YouTube, MySpace, Verizon Wireless' V CAST network, Verizon Communications FiOS network, and more.

"Delivering health messages to young people today can be frustrating," said Dr. Scott Shamp, director of the New Media Institute and professor of telecommunications at UGA's Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. "A whole generation isn't using their parents' media, so we have to find new ways to reach them. Mobile media has powerful potential for reaching young people with information to help them stay healthy and protect others."

National HIV Testing Day is an opportunity for people nationwide to learn their HIV status and to gain knowledge to take control of their health and their lives. According to the CDC, more than a quarter million people are estimated to be living with HIV and are unaware of their infection. Often those infected exhibit no visible symptoms and are more likely to pass the virus to others. Knowing infection status can lengthen life expectancy dramatically as patients are able to start treatment earlier.

Incorporating the upconverter, downconverter, VCO, synthesizer, RF and IF amplifier, and RF and IF gain control functions into a single package, the device provides the low noise and low distortion performance required for superb video quality in today's CATV systems that combine digital and analog channel lineups together using a densely loaded spectrum.

Ron Michels, Senior Vice President and General Manager of ANADIGICS' Broadband Business, reports, "ANADIGICS' AIT1032 is a complete RF tuner solution which employs such a high degree of integration that it significantly reduces the amount of external circuitry required, while at the same time providing a robust, high-performance solution that minimizes sensitivity to board layout variations. As the industry moves toward a fully digital video delivery, the performance of this double conversion tuner will enable set-top box designers to make the transition from analog to digital architectures without dramatically changing their product designs."

The AIT1032 provides two 45 MHz IF outputs, one for analog signals and one for digital signals. The digital output offers 78dB (typ) conversion gain, with an adjustable IF amplifier stage having 45dB of gain control range. The analog output provides 65dB conversion gain via a fixed IF output amplifier. The single RF input to the device contains a low noise amplifier with 35dB of gain control range. The device includes on-chip oscillator tank circuits that reduce component count and eliminate the need for any post-assembly manual adjustments. The AIT1032 is optimized to avoid interference in MoCA-enabled applications

MedeFile To Be Marketed in Over 100,000 Retail OutletsGrants API Marketing, Sales & Advertising Company Exclusive Rights to Convenience Stores, Gas Stations, Bodegas, Independent Pharmacies and Health Food Stores in the U.S. and Canada

CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J., June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MedeFile International, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: MDFI) , a company specializing in portable electronic medical records management solutions, today announced that it has granted South Florida-based API Marketing, Sales & Advertising Company the exclusive right to market MedeFile memberships to consumers in more than 100,000 retail outlets throughout the U.S. and Canada.

For more than 20 years, API has specialized in marketing consumer products and services through convenience stores, gas stations, bodegas, independent pharmacies and health food stores across North America. Clients have included PT-1, Verizon, Old Navy and Playboy, just to name a few. Founded by CEO and President Alex Papas, API employs more than 500 independent sales representatives in the Continental U.S., Hawaii and Canada.

Papas noted, "Once we understood what the MedeFile solution was, we came to the fast conclusion that there is simply no one who should be without it. Aside from providing peace of mind, convenience and security, this cost effective and tech-savvy electronic medical record management solution is also environmentally friendly, helping to eliminate, to large degree, the need for producing hard copies of health records. Based on my own personal, harrowing medical experiences involving unnecessary and costly redundant testing, I believe that MedeFile is indeed capable of having a very positive -- if not profound -- impact on the U.S. healthcare system. Consequently, API is very excited about having the opportunity to partner with MedeFile to bring this important new technology to the attention of U.S. consumers everywhere."

API will collaborate with MedeFile on the high impact design and production of a point-of-sale, MedeFile-branded 'rack card' that API will arrange to be positioned at or near check-out counters in retail venues within the API sales network. In addition, the Companies will collaborate on the design and production of MedeFile-branded 'stickers' to be adhered primarily to storefront glass windows, main entry doors and gas pumps, as applicable.

"We are very pleased that API appreciates our vision for establishing the MedeFile solution as the de facto standard for how individuals manage their personal medical records," stated Milton Hauser, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MedeFile. "It is our opinion that the key to long term success for our Company is through education of the mass consumer market on the value and potentially life saving benefits of our patient-centric approach to automating the collection, archiving and management of a person's medical history. With API's assistance, we look forward to introducing MedeFile to millions of consumers in the coming year."
