READING, England, February 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Acision, the global leader in mobile messaging, today announced the availability of its leading Rich Communication Suite (RCS) services, as a hosted solution from the Acision Cloud environment. First launched in October 2011, the Acision Cloud model enables mobile operators to quickly and cost effectively respond to rapidly changing technology developments and end user preferences, by having the ability to access and offer customers new rich services while maximising their revenue-generating potential. By delivering RCS from the cloud, Acision is enabling operators to launch Rich Messaging quickly and with limited up-front cost, without the need to deploy an IMS Core. Since the beginning of 2012, RCS has been offered as a key service on Acision's consolidated messaging platform, Acision Broadband Messaging Service Centre (BMSC).
In today's IP-centric world, where time to market and enriching user experience is everything, mobile operators around the globe are investing in rich and superior services to enhance the user experience, based on platforms such as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) - which can be a costly and complex infrastructure implementation. By offering mobile operators easy access to Acision's hosted RCS solution, operators can bring richer services to market faster with easy connectivity, flexibility and delivery models, including:
- RCS5, including SMS and MMS interworking
- Social Networks integration
- Triggering for consumer services
- Open APIs for enterprise content and services
All this is the basis for new revenue streams through new value added consumer services and enterprise applications.
"Acision offers a high level of flexibility in its delivery options and business models for RCS. For operators that require in-network delivery, we can deploy our hardware independent RCS solution either on their dedicated hardware or in the operator's private cloud environment. For operators that are looking to minimise time to market and investments, and launch RCS without having to deploy an IMS Core, we can deliver RCS as a service from the Acision cloud environment. A quick, easy and cost effective option to RCS delivery without the added complexity of IMS," said Jorgen Nilsson, Chief Executive Officer at Acision. "By virtualising our solutions operators can access and deploy the latest rich services, and scale these easily without the hefty costs traditionally associated with deployment, which also enables greater economies of scale across operator groups and alliances. RCS from the cloud enhances our proposition to rapidly deliver IP-based, rich messaging services in 2013, and builds on our 20 years of messaging expertise in evolving the messaging ecosystem."
Now available in Acision's cloud or as a virtualised offering, mobile operators can access Acision's RCS solutions from virtually any location in the world. Acision's data centres will deliver scalable, reliable connectivity to multiple domestic and international sites underpinned by fibre backbone networks and undersea cabling. This will ensure that operators can take advantage of easily monetised rich messaging services with cost effective expenditure and investment in bandwidth costs. Furthermore, the data centres will be backed up by 24/7 support, complimented with Acision's complete KPI and service intelligence reporting, to test and gauge usage results of the services delivered in the cloud.

As the global leader in mobile messaging, Acision connects the world by powering relevant, seamless messaging services, which enrich the mobile communications experience and create new opportunities for carriers and enterprises across the world.

- 3rd parties and enterprises benefit from richer messaging services using RCS capabilities as enhancements to the popular SMS / MMS services we know today.

Making new mates! Rihanna's little brother Rajad messes around with an older female friend in new Twitter photo
He's got one of the world's most famous megastars as an older sister so it stands to reason that Rihanna's younger brother Rajad has a big group of friends.
And earlier this week Rihanna shared a picture of her teenage sibling messing around with an older female friend.
In the shot, Rajad, wearing a red T-shirt, is seen on top of a woman with curly brown hair as she lays on the floor.
Making new friends! Rihanna's brother Rajad Fenty is seen messing around with an older female pal in this funny Twitter picture
Just good friends: In another shot, Rajad (back left) can be seen posing up with the woman
While, at first glance, it looks like the lady could, in fact, be Rihanna herself, an earlier picture that Rajad tweeted makes it clear that the woman in the photo is in fact just a friend.
The second picture shows Rajad, 14, and a group of friends, including the identified woman, posing up at some kind of party.
Rihanna is close to both her younger brothers, she also has Rorrey, who is 21.
The singer, who made her acting debut with Battleship, has landed another role on the big screen.
Close family: Rihanna with their mother, Monica Fenty, at the Time gala in New York on April 24
Today it has been revealed that she has been cast to play a villainous role in the upcoming blockbuster The Fast and the Furious 6.
The You Da One singer will star in the movie alongside Vin Diesel and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
An inside source told the Sun, 'Rihanna impressed with her acting debut in Battleship.'
Doing her family proud: Rihanna dressed up nicely to accompany her mother to the Time event
'Writers think she'll be perfect for the role. Her character has plenty of bite and doesn't take any prisoners - just like her in real life.'
The 24-year-old singer recently made her leap to the big screen playing a weapons officer named Raikes in the mega-movie Battleship.
The source continued, 'It's a step up the ladder for her and could lead to bigger action roles.'

The maritime authority of Norway, the Norwegian Maritime Directorate (NMD), has extended its authorization to class society ABS to include Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs) in its scope as a Recognized Organization (RO). This entitles ABS to class Norwegian-flagged rigs without having to perform additional safety equivalencies or a GAP analysis to meet Norwegian law.
The additional annex to the existing agreement between NMD and ABS was signed the week of Feb. 23 in Haugesund, Norway by ABS President and COO Christopher J. Wiernicki and NMD Acting Director General of Shipping and Navigation Sigurd Gude. It marked a milestone for the world's leading offshore classification society as this acceptance by the NMD means ABS has demonstrated that its requirements for MODUs offer equivalent levels of safety to those currently used by the NMD.
This formal recognition is now reflected in ABS' newly revised Guide for Mobile Offshore Units Operating on Norwegian Continental Shelf, N-Notation. The guide outlines the classification requirements for the (N) symbol, a design verification indicating the unit complies with applicable ABS Rules and or Guides plus compliance with the latest maritime technical requirements of Norway's Petroleum Safety Authority (PSA) as enforced by NMD.
According to Oslo-based ABS Manager of Technology and Business Development Offshore for Norway Jon Strengehagen, the rapid expansion of the offshore industry in the North Sea and the growing number of new offshore units for Norwegian owners being built to ABS class, means this recognition comes at a time when service commitment is critical.
The authorization of ROs by the NMD is regulated by a general agreement between Norwegian Authorities and the ROs in a document revised in 2002. The specific authorized duties are outlined in annexes to the agreement. ABS has, until now, been authorized to act as a RO for ships. The new Annex has expanded the authorization to include mobile offshore units without having to reanalyze each unit to demonstrate equivalency. As an RO, ABS is delegated authority to carry out design approval, inspections, initial surveys, annual surveys and five-yearly periodical surveys on behalf of the NMD to verify compliance with applicable NMD requirements and applicable Rules for the classification of mobile offshore units prescribed by the RO and accepted by the NMD. The RO is further delegated to verify compliance with MARPOL annexes.

SANTA CLARA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/17/13 -- MobileSpan today announced MobileSpan for BYOD, the next generation remote access platform for personal devices in the enterprise. MobileSpan is the first platform to seamlessly plug into existing corporate systems and extend the reach of enterprise document repositories and web applications to BYO devices. MobileSpan for BYOD addresses both the enterprise and the individual by arming employees with the power of corporate information on their personal devices without the threat of lost or mishandled data or the high cost of managing devices.
The BYOD trend is being driven by both end-users who want to choose what devices they use and where they use them, and IT departments who want to get out of the "asset management" business. In fact, a recent study by Forrester on the consumerization of IT* revealed that 60% of enterprises currently have or are planning BYOD programs for smartphones while more than 40% are looking to BYOD for tablets and laptops.
"The growing BYOD trend has created a huge market for MobileSpan's flagship product, which enables employees to securely access company content anytime, anywhere and on any device," says Puneet Agarwal of True Ventures. "Nils is a proven entrepreneur who has assembled an incredibly exciting team, and we are thrilled to be working with them."
With a feature-rich product and a rapidly growing need in the market, MobileSpan secured an oversubscribed $2.3 million series A round of funding to drive future growth. True Ventures led the financing with participation from Greylock, K9 Ventures, Alchemist Accelerator, and several notable Angels. The company will use the capital to invest in R&D and marketing in 2013.
"Bring-your-own-device is sometimes seen as a threat to enterprise IT. But if done right, BYOD is an opportunity for IT to move away from owning and managing hundreds or thousands of devices, towards providing a service to workers using any device," said Nils Bunger, CEO of MobileSpan. "We are extending existing enterprise systems and practices to personal devices while maintaining full lifecycle data protection."
MobileSpan for BYOD will be showcased on Thursday, January 17 during Alchemist Accelerator Demo Day in Mountain View, CA. Alchemist Accelerator is a new accelerator targeted exclusively at startups whose revenue comes from enterprises.
About MobileSpan
MobileSpan was founded in 2011 by deep Windows enterprise experts from Google and Sun. In 2012 MobileSpan was selected as one of the inaugural companies in the Alchemist Accelerator, an accelerator program exclusively for startups whose revenue comes from enterprises, not consumers. MobileSpan is a privately held technology company that provides a drop-in, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) solution which enables a company's workforce to work from anywhere, on any device, while remaining fully integrated with existing company management systems, and fully compliant with data governance standards. The company has raised $2.3 million to date. You can find more information at www.mobilespan.net.

Script Finished, 'New Moon' Officially Moving Forward
Following a stunning opening day of "Twilight" on Friday, November 21, Summit Entertainment have come out with a great news for "New Moon", the sequel to the romantic vampire drama on Saturday, November 22. In a press release, the studio announced that the second "Twilight" movie are officially en route.
Though mentioning no further detail, such as the cast, director, release date or an actual start of production date, about the movie based on Stephenie Meyer's second novel of her Twilight series, the press release included Meyer's comment on the "New Moon" adaptation. "I don't think any other author has had a more positive experience with the makers of her movie adaptation than I have had with Summit Entertainment," she said. "I'm thrilled to have the chance to work with them again on New Moon."
On other "New Moon" news, Edward Cullen's depicter, Robert Pattinson, has told the Seattle Times earlier that the script for the sequel has been finished. "The script is already done for the second one," he explained when asked whether "New Moon" will get the green light this November. Previously, it has been reported that "Twilight" screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg has signed on to pen "New Moon" as well as proposed third installment, "Eclipse".
Opening on Friday with an estimated $35.7 million, "Twilight" has scored the largest opening day total for a non-sequel, beating out the $35.2 million opening day of "Iron Man". The Catherine Hardwicke-directed movie then continues its amazing run by collecting an impressive $70.6 million over the weekend, making it to be the biggest opening ever for a female director.

Home > Press > Nanoengineered Biomedical Devices: Annual Fall Nanotechnology Symposium to Focus on Biomedical Field
Join colleagues from industry and academia to learn about frontiers of nanotechnology in the fields of medical devices, diagnostics, and biomedical research. This one-day symposium will include internationally recognized speakers, a student poster session, and time for discussions and networking.
On November 19th Silicon Valley will showcase a different side of the high-tech revolution. Innovations in electrical engineering have enabled great gains in semiconductors and electronics - the engines that drive Silicon Valley and much of today's economy. Less well known is the way engineering is being applied to biology to change the way we diagnose and treat diseases. This year, the annual Fall meeting of the IEEE Nanotechology Council of the San Francisco Bay Area will focus on nanoscale engineering for biomedical devices. Invited speakers will represent both academic institutions and companies building new tools for biomedical research and the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
The keynote speaker is Professor David Deamer of UC Santa Cruz, a pioneer in the field of nanopore-based DNA sequencing. This technique began as an ambitious academic concept, and there are now over 1800 patent applications for DNA analysis with nanopores from companies including Agilent, Hitachi, and Oxford Nanopore. Prof. Deamer will give a personal account of the development of nanopore sequencing. Other seminar topics will include nanomaterials, such as nanoporous gold foams, used as electrical probes of cell growth, and insights from commercialization of a glucose monitoring device. One of the goals of the meeting, according to conference chair Boaz Vilozny, is bringing together the perspective of academic and industry scientists. "Many students come from academia with training and fresh ideas, but little exposure to the culture and goals of industry. Meetings like this are a way to build relationships that are essential when beginning a career. From the industry side, it is a way to keep up with exciting innovations in nanotechnology from a broad range of disciplines."
This one-day symposium will feature eight seminar speakers from morning through early afternoon, followed by an informal student poster presentation and networking. Attendees can register at sites.ieee.org/sfbanano/2013/09/18/fall-symposium-nanoengineered-biomedical-devices/. Students wishing to present a poster should contact the conference chairs directly. Special rates are included for students and those seeking employment.

Baseball field named for Ron Tonkin
At a media event Tuesday afternoon at the Hillsboro Ballpark, Mayor Jerry Willey announced that the new name for the stadium where the Hillsboro Hops Class A baseball team plays will be Ron Tonkin Field.
Ron Tonkin, who passed away in January, was the owner of the Ron Tonkin Family of Dealerships, a major Northwest auto dealer group.
"This is a perfect marriage of our father's love for baseball and our love for him," said Ed Tonkin, Ron's son.
The naming rights deal is for 10 years, and the Tonkin business will pay $150,000 per year for the right to have the stadium called Ron Tonkin Field. The city will receive 70 percent of that money each year $150,000 while the Hops organization will receive the remainder, $45,000.
"It's a special day for us," said K.L. Wombacher, general manager of the Hillsboro Hops.

Pre-Approval occurs when you give them copies of pay stubs and other documentation (such as tax returns, etc) and they send it all to an underwriter. When the underwriter comes back and says "yup - everything checks out - we can give you a loan for X dollars so long as the home appraises" - THEN you have a Pre-Approval.
A pre-qual is generally not worth the paper it's written on. A pre-approval can help you have some extra negotiating power when you're dealing on a house!
If I can be of any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me at http://www.HernandoLuxuryHomes.com - I'd be happy to help however I can!
The underwriter is the most important part of this equation. A full lender pre-approval will provide the best terms for the seller and if presented in the best light, make you the most preferred buyer should there be multiple offers on a property.

Existing Shareholders retain 21 per cent of Union Bank
Existing shareholders of Union Bank will still retain 21 percent of the entity at the conclusion of ongoing capital injection by the new core investor. According to the banks' group treasurer, Abayomi Oluyemi, the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) will own 19 percent while the new core investor group will own 60 percent. As part of the scheme of arrangement, 10.967 billion shares will be cancelled while share reconstruction will be retained on the basis of 3 new shares for 16 existing shares.
At a presentation held in Lagos yesterday, he explained that the whole arrangement to recapitalise the bank would benefit all the parties. "The recapitalisation will bring in International Reputable companies as Shareholders. Core Investor will have a focus to increase value of Union Bank which will benefit all shareholders." He added that the capital infusion by core investor, AMCON and existing shareholders will make Union Bank one of the most liquid bank in Nigeria.
For the customers, they would get the benefit of an old trusted brand in a renewed bank while major improvements in infrastructure, services and technology will make the banking experience easier and more enriching. "Level of capital injection means your money is safer than ever before. International best practice implemented in your bank while you can continue your business as usual (no new cheque book) with unusually great service." Mr Oluyemi said the rejuvenated institution would ensure that the legacy of Union Bank continues to exist, while staff contribution to the legacy continues to be relevant and years of service continues to count towards career progression and entitlements of staff. "Staff stand to lose a lot if Union Bank ceases to exist as they will be required to reapply to the new bank and years of service will begin afresh.
Group managing director of the bank, Funke Osibudo said all is set for the court ordered meeting on September 30 seeking shareholders' approval to go ahead with the recapitalisation plans. The meeting is to approve the scheme of arrangement between the lender and its potential core-investor - Union Global Partners limited.
Union Global Partners is a consortium comprising reputable names like ACA B - Holdings limited (ACA managed fund, FMO Netherlands, Standard Chartered Private Equity, Auctor capital, Carlye Capital, High Vistar); The Keffi Group VIII LLC ( Keffi Group, JC Flowers, BGI); ABC Holdings Limited (Banc ABC Botswana); and Discovery Group Of Connecticut, USA.
These will bring in the initial investment of $500 million while US OPIC will subsequently invest $250 million as Tier 2 capital.

Photography: Portraits of those helping to tackle the UK floods, by Charlie Clift
The UK has taken a real battering from the sky of late, leaving towns all over the place drowning in seemingly endless floods. The news have become accustomed to using the term "Dunkirk" when alluding to the spirit of the townspeople in the most hard-hit areas, which is accurate to say the least. Photographer Charlie Clift decided to champion the members of the public who have been waist-deep in water (sometimes sewage) for the last few weeks and take their portraits for his new series Faces of the Flood. "I realised I needed to do something to record the floods and help those affected. After a small bout of research I realised that the efforts of volunteer groups and services were amazing. So I travelled to the Somerset Levels to join them." Charlie told us.
"Immediately on my arrival to any flooded area I came across loads of people helping out. There wasn't a split between authority and volunteers, just everyone working together getting their feet wet and their hands dirty. Some had taken time off work, others had travelled down from London or Yorkshire, and specialists had worked non-stop for over a month. Although the damage to buildings and homes was horrible it was fantastic to see the community spirit and helpful attitude of those lending a hand. I hope my images help promote their efforts and encourage others to help out as well."

It looks like he's taking over the mantle of his old teammate Lenny Dykstra, ack.5. Sunday silence Posted: November 02, 2012 at 12:20 AM (#4290646)
That seems like a stretch at this point. The lawsuit is a civil matter, and seems to be contending that it is Schilling's fault that the staff of the state's Economic Development Corporation didn't convey information to the Board of the Economic Development Corporation. Not sure that's a winner, and it also seems many levels of magnitude less evil than Dykstra, even if more money is involved.
got to agree with that last. Let's get some perspective, I sure as hell cant stand listening to what this gasbag has to say, but I'm not aware of any criminality involving the man.6. valuearbitrageur Posted: November 02, 2012 at 01:43 AM (#4290672)
It looks like he's taking over the mantle of his old teammate Lenny Dykstra, ack.
They lent his business money. He personally guaranteed the money. The business failed, leaving far too little to repay the loan. He apparently invested most of his fortune in the business, and doesn't appear to have the funds to repay the loan, so he is very likely to be forced to file personal bankruptcy to cap his obligations to the state to what remains of his net worth, instead of the entire $75M plus penalties.
This is how business works. If you lend to a business, you prefer to have some sort of collateral or personal guarantee to make recovery of your loan more likely in case the business has troubles. But the value of that guarantee is often limited when the sums outstrip the amounts a person can repay, personal bankruptcy is always the case.
Bankruptcy and failure aren't shameful in business unless your failure was caused by incompetence or malfeasance, and even then incompetence and arrogance aren't criminal acts. There is no more debtors prison, if there was a large number of U.S. home owners would be in it. Many, if not most of, VC investments fail, and often the founders, CEOs and top level managers are still in high demand at the next VC backed startup. I've had VCs tell me they prefer entrepeneurs with failures on their resume, it makes them more experienced and often, less arrogant. and better to work with, both for employees and boards.
So yes, Curt Schillings behavior here is nothing like Dykstras. It appears that Curt grew his business too fast and too aggressively because he was too in love with the product, and too inexperienced in running a startup. Ironically, Rhode island giving him money was probably the worst thing, because he should have been forced to take on experienced investors who would have exerted control from the board and pulled back the reins on Curt, either demoting or firing him if necessary, to make sure the business grew within it's resources with a proper business plan, and always had enough cash to keep operating long enough to fulfill the plan (or shut it down before it ran out of all of it's cash).
I think Rhode Island deserves the bigger black eye here, taking taxpayer money to give to a private business to "create jobs" is always a bad idea economically. The taxpayers shouldn't bear the risk, the types of companies that get these kind of guarantees are economic black holes that can't get funded by rational investors because their business plans are so unlikely to succeed, and often they get guarantees because they are politically connected to the right people. That's why we get terrible solar companies, electric car companies, etc, because they are all welfare businesses that create little to no economic value and collapse as soon as the government's teat is withdrawn.
I originally read the title as "RJ" and was surprised that Randy Johnson got on well enough with his old teammate to have lent him money. Not surprised he'd later sue him over it though.8. Nats-Homer-in-DC Posted: November 03, 2012 at 05:37 AM (#4291486)
So Schilling didn't get the same treatment from RI that Obama gave Solyndra?9. bob gee Posted: November 03, 2012 at 07:55 AM (#4291498)
#4 = truth.
schilling's was most likely one of enthusiasm with bad business sense.
dykstra had some good business sense (car washes, even though there were rumors of illegal activities then), but lots of stuff after that was (according to witnesses), even if not provable, outright theft/illegal.
