Ticketmaster Entertainment, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2008 EarningsThird quarter revenues of $339.2 million, up 16% versus prior yearFree Cash Flow for the quarter of $54.2 million, up more than 50%Sponsorship and distribution partnerships signed with Research In Motion and Yahoo! and NFL Fan Ticket Exchange launched during the quarterAcquisition of controlling interest in Front Line Management closed October 29, 2008

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ticketmaster Entertainment, Inc. (Ticketmaster) , the world's leading live entertainment ticketing and marketing company, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2008. Revenues were $339.2 million, 16% higher than prior year because of strategic acquisitions and an increase in revenue per ticket. EBITDA was $57.3 million, 16% lower than prior year, due to royalty expense, severance charges, and public company costs in the quarter. These results do not include Front Line Management Group, Inc., except as recorded with respect to a minority stake held prior to its recent acquisition of the controlling interest.

"While we are pleased to report solid revenue growth for the quarter and year to date, the global macro-economic environment is certainly challenging and its impact on live entertainment in the near-term difficult to predict," said Sean Moriarty, chief executive officer of Ticketmaster and president of Ticketmaster Entertainment. "Uncertain economic conditions have further reinforced our focus on driving improved efficiencies and profitability through our platforms and businesses around the world, and we have made substantial progress in realizing reduced operating costs going into the final quarter of 2008. At the same time, we continue to make great strides in our competitive positioning: we've extended our consumer reach through online distribution partnerships with companies, such as Yahoo! and Eventful; we are bringing our events to the mobile consumer through our partnership with RIM; and our technology team continues to deliver great new solutions such as Paperless Ticket(TM) to our fans and clients. We expect our recent acquisition of Front Line Management Group to accelerate the development of the artist to fan experience that Ticketmaster Entertainment is uniquely positioned to deliver."

Quarterly Business Highlights

Ticketmaster experienced a number of business developments over the reporting period, including the successful ticketing for the Beijing Games, the announcement of a strategic partnership with Research In Motion, the launch of the NFL Fan Ticket Exchange service, and the implementation of Paperless Ticket(TM) for AC/DC's latest tour.

Ticketing activity for the Beijing Games surpassed that of all other events in the 30 year history of Ticketmaster, including breaking the record for tickets sold in one day (+520,000) and for visitors to the ticketmaster.com system in an hour (27 million). Furthermore, our Olympic presence allowed us to establish our unique technological capabilities and grow our presence in the Chinese live event market.

And, in another example of Ticketmaster's technological innovation, Paperless Ticket(TM) was deployed during AC/DC's "Black Ice World Tour," allowing fan club members and fans access to great seats with only a credit card swipe and photo ID. Metallica used Paperless Ticket for the band's "Death Magnetic" release party at London's iconic O2 that produced no waiting in will call lines and quick, secure access to the venue for all fans.

Our partnership with Research In Motion, which was announced in the third quarter brings mobile ticketing to the millions of BlackBerry(R) users. The exclusive sponsorship agreement provides new mobile access that supports live entertainment event search and anytime, anywhere ticket purchasing.

We made further progress in providing fan-friendly access to tickets in resale as Ticketmaster's new NFL Fan Ticket Exchange service kicked-off on NFL.com during the quarter. As the "Official Ticket Exchange Provider of the NFL," Ticketmaster's secure and convenient resale platform was expanded beyond existing deals with the NBA and NHL to allow NFL fans to exchange tickets to all regular season games, playoffs, and the Super Bowl.

Quarterly Results Revenue

The company posted third quarter revenue of $339.2 million, up 16% from the same period last year. Revenue growth in the quarter was primarily driven by the acquisitions of TicketsNow, Paciolan and SLO, Ltd. (acquired in February, January and March 2008, respectively) and 2% higher average overall revenue per primary ticket. These increases were partially offset by a 3% decline in the number of primary tickets sold worldwide. Acquisitions contributed $43 million to overall revenue growth in the quarter.

Domestic revenue was up 19%, driven by the acquisitions mentioned above. Excluding acquisitions, domestic revenue declined approximately 2%, or $4 million, primarily due to a 5% decrease in the number of tickets sold. Beginning in late August, ticket sales volume declined across most domestic live entertainment genres, primarily in sports and music. Concert tickets were down 7%, with the exception of the hard rock and metal category due to the popularity of the AC/DC and Metallica tours. Sports tickets were down 8%, led by softness in Major League Baseball and pre-season ticket sales for the NFL. Although top theatre acts, such as Wicked, showed strong year-over-year gains, overall ticket sales in the arts category showed a slight decline; and family shows finished the quarter with moderate growth.

International revenue grew 10%, or 7% excluding the effects of foreign exchange, primarily due to a 9% increase average in revenue per ticket with most of the revenue increase in Canada, Spain, and China (where we acquired Emma Entertainment in August 2007). The top selling international events/acts were the Australian Football League, Neil Young's Uberholspur tour, and the Scottish music festival T in the Park which combined sold nearly 420 thousand tickets.

Profitability

The decrease in consolidated EBITDA to $57.3 million reflects an $11 million, or 16%, EBITDA decline in primary ticketing operations. This decrease in primary ticketing profits reflects higher costs associated with royalties, administrative and technology expense, and the net unfavorable impact of ticket volume and pricing, as discussed above. Royalty costs were the primary driver of the EBITDA decline due to a 1.4 point increase in overall rates and the benefit of an accrual reversal in the prior year period. Administrative costs were higher in part due to approximately $4.0 million in severance charges described below and public company costs.

While the combined resale business provided $30 million of revenue growth, the profits generated from TicketsNow were offset by higher costs of approximately $7 million associated with resale sponsorships and music service partners, including the NFL, US Open and NHL.

Commencing the third quarter, Ticketmaster began a series of actions expected to reduce 2009 annual operating expenses by approximately $35 million in the following areas: (i) approximately 35% from reductions in personnel, (ii) approximately 25% from cost reductions and efficiencies at customer contact centers, and iii) the balance from reductions in other operating costs, including payment processing, marketing, sponsorship and other discretionary costs. During the quarter, severance costs associated with personnel reductions amounted to nearly $2.5 million, reflecting the first of our expected personnel reductions. The company expects to incur additional severance costs ranging from $3 million to $4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 as further reductions in personnel take place.

Operating Income and Net Income

Operating income for the current period reflected a 39% increase in depreciation due to the TicketsNow and Paciolan acquisitions and a new data center in China; a 36% increase in amortization of intangibles primarily due to the TicketsNow and Paciolan acquisitions; and a 98% increase in non-cash compensation due to the accelerated vesting of certain awards to employees at the time of the spin-off from IAC. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and spin-related costs, operating income would have declined by 26%.

Net income was $9.6 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, each lower by 76%, respectively, compared to the 2007 period. The decrease in net income reflects lower interest income and higher interest expense from our debt issued in connection with the spin-off from IAC, as well as a higher effective tax rate.

The tax provision for the third quarter was impacted by two non-recurring factors that increased the quarterly effective tax rate by approximately 20%, adjustments for prior years related to the filing of tax returns and additional expense recorded for the first and second quarter income related to the increase in the estimated 2008 annual tax rate. The expected annual tax rate increased in Q3 from Q2 due to factors related to the Company's issuance of debt, including the inability to use foreign tax credits, and an increase in losses not benefited for tax in our emerging businesses. We are currently working on several initiatives that once implemented would have a favorable effect on the Company's long-term effective tax rate. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, spin-related costs, and non-recurring tax items, net income would have declined by 14%.

Balance Sheet and Free Cash Flow

The September 30, 2008 balance sheet reflects $547 million of cash and cash equivalents, including $356 million in funds collected on behalf of our clients. As of September 30, 2008, total long term debt was $765 million, consisting of $300 million of Senior Notes due in 2016, a $100 million Term Loan A with a maturity in 2013 and a $350 million Term Loan B in 2014. Ticketmaster also maintains a $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity in 2013, of which $15 million was drawn down as of September 30, 2008 in connection with the spin-off from IAC. The proceeds of the Term Loans and the Senior Notes were used to fund a distribution to IAC prior to the spin-off and to fund transaction fees and expenses associated with the debt issuances.

On October 27, 2008, the company borrowed an additional $100 million under the revolving credit facility to fund a portion of the acquisition costs of a controlling interest in Front Line Management Group. As of September 30, 2008, and after the closing of the Front Line interest, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under our debt facilities.

Free Cash Flow was $54.2 million in the quarter, 54% higher than the same period last year due to favorable changes in working capital, partially offset by the decline in operating results and higher capital expenditures in the quarter. Favorable changes in working capital were primarily related to timing of advance payments under ticketing contracts, accounts payable and accounts receivable, offset in part by increased sponsorship payments to our resale partners. Capital expenditures were higher due to efforts to enhance our client reporting systems, improve our communication infrastructure and the acquisitions of Paciolan and TicketsNow.

Ticketmaster's management will host a conference call today at 1:30 PT (4:30 ET) to discuss the company's financial results. A live webcast of the call will be accessible on the Investor Relations section of Ticketmaster's website at http://investors.ticketmaster.com/.

Ticketmaster's primary metric is Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), which is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) depreciation expense (2) non-cash compensation expense, (3) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (4) goodwill impairment, (5) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions, and (6) one-time items. Ticketmaster believes this measure is useful to investors because it represents its consolidated operating results excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to Ticketmaster's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation and acquisition-related accounting.

The following table reconciles EBITDA to operating income and net income (in

thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2008 2007 2008 2007 EBITDA $57,290 $68,135 $198,936 $212,045 Non-cash compensation expense (8,950) (4,523) (20,343) (9,465) Amortization of intangibles (8,268) (6,081) (28,671) (19,601) Depreciation expense (13,217) (9,495) (36,100) (28,087) Operating income 26,855 48,036 113,822 154,892 Interest income 4,685 8,533 7,707 22,410 Interest expense (10,909) (242) (16,814) (641) Equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates 2,850 1,196 2,048 3,021 Other (expense) income (413) 230 244 105 Total other (expense) income, net (3,787) 9,717 (6,815) 24,895 Earnings before income taxes and minority interest 23,068 57,753 107,007 179,787 Income tax provision (13,335) (18,671) (43,010) (63,181) Minority interest in (income) losses of consolidated subsidiaries (118) 1,459 1,337 1,664 Net income $9,615 $40,541 $65,334 $118,270

TICKETMASTER ENTERTAINMENT'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

Ticketmaster Entertainment reports EBITDA as a supplemental measure to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This measure is one of the primary metrics by which Ticketmaster evaluates the performance of its businesses, on which its internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. Ticketmaster believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that it uses in analyzing its results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Ticketmaster provides and encourages investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measure which are discussed below.

Definition of Ticketmaster Entertainment's Non-GAAP Measure

EBITDA is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) depreciation expense (2) non-cash compensation expense, (3) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (4) goodwill impairment, (5) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions, and (6) one-time items. Ticketmaster believes this measure is useful to investors because it represents the operating results of Ticketmaster's businesses excluding the effects of any other non- cash expenses. EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to Ticketmaster's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation, and acquisition-related accounting. Ticketmaster endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by also providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less funds collected on behalf of clients, net, and less capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to investors because it represents the cash that our operating businesses generate, before taking into account cash movements that are nonoperational. Free Cash Flow has certain limitations in that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period, nor does it represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures. For example, it does not take into account stock repurchases. Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate Free Cash Flow along with our consolidated statement of cash flows.

Ticketmaster will only present EBITDA on a pro forma basis if it views a particular transaction as significant in size or transformational in nature. For the periods presented in this report, there are no transactions that Ticketmaster has included on a pro forma basis.

One-Time Items

EBITDA is presented before one-time items, if applicable. These items are truly one-time in nature and non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, and have not occurred in the past two years or are not expected to recur in the next two years, in accordance with SEC rules. For the periods presented in this report, there are no one-time items.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From Ticketmaster's Non-GAAP Measure

Non-cash compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock options. These expenses are not paid in cash, and Ticketmaster will include the related shares in its future calculations of fully diluted shares outstanding. Upon vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units and the exercise of certain stock options, the awards will be settled, at Ticketmaster's discretion, on a net basis, with Ticketmaster remitting the required tax withholding amount from its current funds.

Amortization of intangibles is a non-cash expense relating primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets of the acquired company, such as purchase and distribution agreements, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. While it is likely that Ticketmaster will have significant intangible amortization expense as it continues to acquire companies, Ticketmaster believes that since intangibles represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition, they were part of transaction costs.

ParkerVision Reports Third Quarter 2008 Results

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ParkerVision, Inc. , a developer and marketer of semiconductor technology solutions for wireless applications, announced a net loss for the third quarter of 2008 of $6.6 million, or $0.25 per share, compared to a net loss of $4.7 million or $0.19 per share during the third quarter of 2007.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, ParkerVision reported a net loss of $17.3 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to a net loss of $13.5 million, or $0.55 per share for the same period in 2007.

The company currently has two licensees for its RF technology and is working with those customers to complete their initial product designs. To date, the company has not recognized any royalty revenue from these licensees.

The increase in the net loss from 2007 to 2008 is largely the result of increased product development costs as the company prepares to support the implementation of its technologies in high volume production. In addition, the company experienced a year to date increase in noncash stock-based compensation expense of approximately $1.3 million as a result of the issuance of restricted share units and other stock-based compensation to employees.

The Company's cash position at September 30, 2008 was $9.8 million. The Company has used approximately $13.9 million in cash during the first three quarters of 2008 for operations and investments in intellectual property.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey Parker commented, "We remain on track to deliver production-ready IC designs to our commercial chipset customer this quarter. We expect to continue to work closely with them as they implement our designs in high volume chipsets, the shipment of which will begin our royalty revenues from this customer. Based on the status of negotiations with prospective customers, we remain confident in our ability to secure an additional contract in the mobile handset space in the very near term."

The company will host a live broadcast of its third quarter 2008 financial results via conference call on November 10, 2008 at 4:30 PM Eastern time. The conference call will be accessible by telephone at 877-719-9786 (no passcode required) and participants are advised to dial-in at least five minutes before the scheduled start time. The replay of the conference call will be available for seven days by telephone at 888-203-1112 or 719-457-0820 using passcode 2701348 and accessible by webcast via the Internet at http://www.parkervision.com/ for a period of 90 days.

Advanced Photonix, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2009 ResultsRecord Quarterly Revenues of $8.2 million, up 25%

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Advanced Photonix, Inc.(R) (the "Company") today reported its second quarter fiscal 2009 results ending September 26, 2008.

Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter Ended September 26, 2008

-- Net sales for the quarter were $8.2 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 25%, compared to revenues for the quarter ended September 28, 2007. The increase was driven by military and Industrial/NDT markets. Net sales for the year to date were $16.0 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 26%, compared to the prior year to date period. The increase was broad based across four of its five markets off-set by a reduction in medical revenues.

-- Gross profit margin for Q2 2009 was 44% of sales compared to 42% for the quarter ended September 28, 2007. This improvement in gross profit margin was due primarily to favorable product mix attributable to increased revenues from military and homeland security markets. Gross profit margin for the year to date was 46% compared to 41% for the prior year to date period, driven by favorable product mix attributable to increased revenues from military, telecommunications and homeland security markets.

-- Operating loss for the quarter was $225,000 as compared to an operating loss of $768,000 for the quarter ended September 28, 2007. Operating income year to date was $14,000 compared to an operating loss of $1.8 million for the prior year to date period.

-- GAAP net loss for the quarter was $326,000, or $.01 per diluted share, as compared to a GAAP net loss of $1.9 million, or $.09 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 28, 2007. GAAP net loss year to date was $179,000 or $.01 per diluted share, as compared to $3.8 million, or $.19 per diluted share, for the prior year period.

-- The Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 was $307,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, as compared to a Non-GAAP net loss of $86,000, or $.00 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter ended September 28, 2007. The Company reported year to date Non-GAAP net income of $1.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, as compared to a Non-GAAP loss of $350,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

-- On an EBITDA basis (which is defined as GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), the Company reported EBITDA of $559,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to EBITDA of $15,000 for the quarter ended September 28, 2007. For the year to date, the Company reported EBITDA of $1.6 million as compared to a negative EBITDA of $324,000 for the comparable prior year period.

Richard Kurtz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased with the results of the second quarter. The balance and strength of our three product platforms continues to give us the ability to meet our growth targets in this challenging economic environment. As we've stated previously, our market opportunities and product platforms compliment each another, and each product platform gives us a solid foundation to grow. In the second quarter, the strongest growth came from our military, industrial and homeland security markets. We continue to believe we are in a strong multi-year growth period, but can still experience uneven quarterly revenue growth in our product platforms as our customers continue to test, qualify and deploy next-generation 40G HSOR and terahertz systems. We expect to continue to see fluctuations in our customers' spending in any given quarter due primarily to slower new product introductions and reduced capital expenditures due to current macro economic conditions. Looking ahead we continue to be cautiously optimistic and are taking a prudently cautious view of guidance for the balance of the year. As a result we are continuing to hold to our revenue growth target of 30% year over year."

The Company will hold a conference call to discuss the results for the second quarter ended September 26, 2008 on Monday, November 10, 2008, at 5:00 PM EST. Participants can dial into the conference call at 888-713-4217 (617-213-4869 for international) using the pass code 81504349. The call will be webcast live by CCBN and can be accessed at Advanced Photonix's web site at http://investor.advancedphotonix.com/or at http://www.earnings.com/.

Tucows Inc. reports financial results for the third quarter of 2008

TORONTO, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tucows Inc., a global provider of domain names, email and other Internet services, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008. All figures are in U.S. dollars.

"Despite a difficult environment, our third quarter revenue growth was driven by the strong performance of our OpenSRS Wholesale Services, primarily domain registration," said Elliot Noss, President and CEO of Tucows. "A number of factors, including weakness in our email business and the general economy putting downward pressure on advertising has dampened our cash flow in 2008. In addition, the significant strengthening of the Canadian dollar during the quarter negatively impacted net income by over $1 million compared to the third quarter last year. As a result, while we still expect 2008 revenue and net income to grow compared to last year, we now expect cash flow from operations for 2008 to be lower than last year."

Mr. Noss continued, "In 2008 we completed numerous initiatives that will result in growth across our business. These accomplishments, combined with a business model composed predominantly of high-volume, low-cost transactions for services essential to establishing and maintaining a presence on the Internet, position us well to weather challenging economic conditions."

"Our business will continue to generate strong cash flow from operations," said Noss. "This, combined with proceeds from the sale of our equity position in Afilias and the recent divestiture of non-core hosting assets will support our share buyback program, as we focus on realizing value for our shareholders."

Net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 increased 13.1% to $20.1 million from $17.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2007. The increase was the result of the growth in both traditional domain registration services and domain portfolio services.

Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2008 was a loss of $93,000 compared with adjusted net income of $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2007. Net loss was $71,000, or $0.00 per share, compared with a net loss of $311,000, or $0.00 per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2007.

Deferred revenue at the end the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was $54.4 million, an increase of 9% from $49.8 million at the end of the third quarter of 2007 and unchanged from $54.4 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

Cash and restricted cash at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was $2.7 million compared with $6.2 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and $2.9 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008. This decrease compared to the second quarter of 2008 is primarily the result of cash used in operations of $107,000, additions to property, plant and equipment of $627,000 and the repayment of $479,000 of the Company's bank loan, which was partially offset by $921,000 generated through the sale of the Company's remaining hosting accounts.

EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income

To assist financial statement users in an assessment of the Company's historical performance and to project its future earnings and cash flows, the Company has included earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). EBITDA is presented because it is an important supplemental measure of performance frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to Net Income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with (GAAP). Because EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges, including interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business. See the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in the attached financial statements. As a non-GAAP performance measure, EBITDA, has certain material limitations as follows:

- It does not include interest expense. Because the Company has borrowed money to finance some of its operations, interest is a necessary part of the Company's costs and ability to generate revenue. Therefore, any measure that excludes interest has material limitations; - It does not include depreciation and amortization expense. Because the Company must utilize capital assets in order to generate revenues, depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary and ongoing part of the Company's costs. Therefore, any measure that excludes depreciation and amortization expense has material limitations; and, - It does not include taxes. Because the payment of taxes is a necessary and ongoing part of the Company's operations, any measure that excludes taxes has material limitations.

Management compensates for these limitations by considering the economic effect of the excluded expense items independently as well as in connection with its analysis of net earnings.

Adjusted Net Income represents EBITDA plus the additional adjustments described in the table below. The adjustments reflect the material amount of cash collected by the Company for domain registrations and other Internet services paid for the full term at the time of activation, with the revenue deferred, net of prepaid fees. In addition, adjusted Net Income reflects earnings and expenses considered as non-representative of ongoing business for the reasons specified below. Each of the items being adjusted for may create certain material limitations in the use of Adjusted Net Income as a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted Net Income is one of the primary measures the Company uses for planning and budgeting purposes, incentive compensation and to monitor and evaluate Tucows' financial and operating results. Adjusted Net Income is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

LodgeNet, LG Electronics Announce New Free-to-Guest and Video On Demand Solutions Based On 'Pro:Centric' TechnologyNew Solutions Will Provide One-to-One Guest Services Through In-room Interactive Platform, Reducing the Need for Expensive Set-Top Boxes

NEW YORK, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- LodgeNet Interactive Corporation and LG Electronics are collaborating on the development of an Interactive Electronic Program Guide (IEPG) as the first in what is expected to be a series of in-room interactive applications based on the new Pro:Centric(TM) standards-based applications platform.

Announced here today at the 2008 International Hotel/Motel & Restaurant Show, LG Electronics' new Pro:Centric technology is designed to support interactive applications such as program guides, games, Web services and other applications designed to communicate with and connect guests to hotel services.

LG has chosen LodgeNet as its lead associate in developing applications and support services for this new platform, and solutions developed for the platform will be compatible with a range of existing LodgeNet free-to-guest (FTG) TV and video-on-demand (VOD) solutions.

"LodgeNet and LG are working together to bring this new platform to the hospitality industry to further enhance the in-room guest experience," said Dave Bankers, LodgeNet Senior Vice President of Product and Technology Development. "Our first collaborative application is an IPG. We are also evaluating additional applications such as hotel information and environmental controls to take advantage of the Pro:Centric platform."

Richard Lewis, senior vice president of Research and Technology for LG Electronics' U.S. R&D subsidiary, said, "We're joining forces with LodgeNet on this initiative based on its unmatched capabilities in delivering innovative new media and connectivity solutions for the hospitality industry. Working with LodgeNet allows LG to quickly introduce compelling applications for the Pro:Centric platform and ensure that hoteliers have the service and support required to operate and extend this environment thereby maximizing the return on their existing entertainment system investment."

CUSTOMIZED CONTENT DELIVERY

LG Electronics' Pro:Centric LG700H LCD HDTV series, combined with LodgeNet's various TV-based platforms and products, supports a broad range of in-room TV services including standalone FTG to VOD and expanded Web based applications. By working together on these new solutions, LodgeNet and LG will increase the capacity and potential of the guest room television to serve as a robust point of convergence for content and services from various sources to meet the marketing, information and entertainment needs of hoteliers and their guests.

Optimized for LodgeNet TV systems, LG's LG700H HDTV models are not only equipped with the Pro:Centric platform, but also provide hoteliers with the industry-standard Pro:Idiom(R) digital rights management system, for the secure, broad deployment of HDTV and other high-value digital content throughout the hotel. In addition, this content is delivered in multiple formats including built-in MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 technology that decodes high-definition (HD) content, so hoteliers get more HD channels and can provide guests with expanded entertainment options.

Belden Expands Cat 5e Industrial Ethernet Family With a 10 Million-Cycle, Continuous Flex Cable and a Shielded and Stranded Cable

RICHMOND, Ind., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Belden , a world leader in the development of signal transmission products for the industrial, building management, enterprise, broadcast, and security markets, announces two new additions to its comprehensive line of DataTuff(R) Industrial Ethernet cables for industrial data networks and plant floor control. Belden Category 5e DataTuff Shielded Twisted Pair Continuous Flex cable -- Product No SI7938A -- is rated for use in continuous motion machinery, such as C-Track and festoon systems, as well as robotics frequently used in discrete manufacturing and automated assembly lines. Belden Category 5e DataTuff Shielded Twisted Pair cable -- Product No 7939A -- features a flexible, stranded and shielded construction to resist machine and plant floor vibration, along with superior noise immunity.

Belden Category 5e DataTuff Continuous Flex Cable

Belden developed the Continuous Flex cable to fulfill a need in the industrial marketplace for a high-performance cable capable of withstanding the stresses caused over time by continuous flexing in mission-critical applications, without damage to the cable or degradation of its Cat 5e electrical performance. In fact, the ruggedly constructed 4-pair cable was rated by Belden in tests involving over ten million flex cycles on a C-Track, at a radius ten times the cable diameter. The cable maintained its physical and signal transmission integrity - with no damage to the cable, no cable failure, and no drop in Cat 5e electrical performance.

Belden Cat 5e DataTuff Continuous Flex cable features a stranded alloy copper conductor, which is key to its remarkable flex capacity. The 24 AWG cable also features polyolefin insulation, has an overall Beldfoil(R) foil/braid shield and dual TPE jackets to provide superior resistance to oil, weldsplatter and sunlight.

Belden Category 5e DataTuff Shielded Twisted Pair Cable

Belden's new Cat 5e DataTuff Shielded Twisted Pair cable -- #7939A -- features a flexible stranded and shielded construction that increases the cable's ability to withstand machine and plant floor vibrations and effectively resist the high levels of electrical noise (EMI/RFI) that can occur when cables come in close proximity to power lines, transformers or electrically-powered equipment. These capabilities make the new shielded twisted pair cable particularly well-suited to a wide range of industrial automation and machine control applications. The 4-pair Cat 5e Shielded cables feature stranded conductors, an overall Beldfoil(R) shield, and dual heavy-duty, industrial-grade PVC jackets to provide superior oil- and sunlight-resistance.

Both of the new Cat 5e Industrial Ethernet cables feature Belden's exclusive Bonded-Pair technology, a patented design that bonds the individual insulated conductors of each pair along the full length of the cable. The Bonded-Pair cables maintain a consistent distance between conductors, with no twisting or performance-robbing gaps, resulting in superior electrical performance both before and after installation. Belden calls this unique capability Installable Performance(R).

Belden offers the industry's most comprehensive line of Industrial Ethernet cables, including DataTuff copper-based Category 5e and Category 6 cables and TrayOptic(R) Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic cables. The ruggedly constructed cables are oil-, chemical- and moisture-resistant, built to withstand extreme temperature variations, and resistant to electrical noise (EMI/RFI). Belden Industrial Ethernet cables deliver top performance, consistent reliability and long service life, even in the most demanding industrial environments and mission-critical applications.

For more information about Belden Industrial Ethernet cables ask for Product Bulletin #231, Belden, P.O. Box 1980, Richmond, Indiana 47375, or call 1.800.BELDEN.1. FAX: 765.983.5294. Or visit our Web site: http://www.belden.com/industrial.

Belden Unveils DataTuff(R) Category 6 UTP Round Design Cables - and All-New Industrial Ethernet User Guide

RICHMOND, Ind., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Belden , a world leader in the development of signal transmission products for the industrial, building management, enterprise, broadcast, and security markets, has introduced a new Category 6 DataTuff(R) Twisted Pair cable, once again expanding its comprehensive family of Industrial Ethernet cables. The new cable -- Product No 7940A -- is EtherNet/IP compliant and is a round construction, which makes it well-suited for sealed Industrial Ethernet connectivity applications.

Belden developed the new Cat 6 Industrial Ethernet cable in response to the trend towards "future proofing" of mission-critical network and automation system backbones being installed in discrete industrial manufacturing, processing plants and large industrial infrastructures, such as water treatment and utility plants, airports, transportation terminals and shipyards. For these applications, building or upgrading to meet the Category 6 performance standard (TIA/EIA 568-B2-1) provides assurance that the network will be well-equipped not only to support today's increasingly sophisticated data communications, but also new and emerging technologies.

Belden's robustly constructed 7940A Cat 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (4-Pair UTP) 23 AWG cable features a solid bare copper conductor and a heavy-duty oil- and sunlight-resistant jacket. In addition, the cable features Belden's exclusive Bonded-Pair technology, a patented design that bonds the individual insulated conductors of each pair along the full length of the cable. The Bonded-Pair cables maintain a consistent distance between conductors, with no twisting or performance-robbing gaps, resulting in superior electrical performance both before and after installation. Belden calls this unique capability Installable Performance(R).

The Industrial Ethernet cable line includes DataTuff(R) copper-based Category 5e and Category 6 cables and TrayOptic(R) Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic cables. The ruggedly constructed family contains cables that are oil-, chemical- and moisture-resistant, built to withstand extreme temperature variations, and resistant to electrical noise (EMI/RFI). Belden Industrial Ethernet cables deliver top performance, consistent reliability and long service life, even in the most demanding industrial environments and mission-critical applications.

Belden's New Industrial Ethernet User Guide Now Available!

Belden is also pleased to announce its new Industrial Ethernet User Guide, a 16-page brochure offering specific information about the dramatic performance differences between commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Ethernet components typically used in office environments, and Belden's ruggedly built industrial-grade components.

Belden products for Industrial Ethernet applications include Belden Industrial Ethernet Cables, Hirschmann Switches, and Lumberg Automation Connectivity Components. The User Guide also provides a wealth of product information, a practical at-a-glance Cable Selection Guide, and a detailed description of nine critical tests that prove the superiority of Belden industrial-grade cables over COTS cables. The new Belden Industrial Ethernet User Guide is now available for download at the Belden Website: http://www.belden.com/industrial.

The recently released Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the in-demand music game integrate Line 6's guitar tone technology, enabling players to use amps, cabs and effects from the world-renown Line 6 POD in the game's Music Studio.

The sound modeling technology of Line 6's POD, which is integrated into Guitar Hero World Tour's innovative new Music Studio, allows gamers to now join the ranks of elite POD using bands including U2, Radiohead, Keane, Muse, Nine Inch Nails, Story of the Year, Slipknot, Dashboard Confessional, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, Garbage, Lenny Kravitz and countless others.

The signature sounds of legendary bands and top musicians today come from a combination of guitar amps, cabs and effects. Through digital signal processing, POD delivers accurate emulations of the most coveted amplifiers, effects and cabinets ever made. It is famous for revolutionizing the way guitarists record, perform, rehearse, and write songs and it eliminates the need for complicated setups with its proprietary technology for simulating the complex interaction of amplifiers, effects, microphones, speaker cabinets and room acoustics. Whether POD is used with headphones to practice, for direct recording or playing live, POD is what musicians turn to for the best guitar sound.

"Line 6 strives to push the boundaries, from revolutionizing the way guitarists record to how they perform live to helping enable the creative process for musicians," said Marcus Ryle, Line 6 Founder and SVP of Research and Development. "Thanks to the incredible processing power of the next-generation video game consoles, we placed the actual tone algorithms into Guitar Hero World Tour to give players the tools to choose their own sounds for the music they create. For the first time, gamers will have the ability to compose and record with the same technology used by professional musicians."

The unlock code, as well as artist videos, Music Studio inspiration and more, are now available at http://www.line6.com/gh.
