Ambient Corporation Enhances Advanced Power Quality Monitoring Solution
SAN DIEGO and NEWTON, Mass., Jan. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ambient Corporation (NASDAQ: AMBT), provider of a secure, flexible, and scalable smart grid communications and applications platform, announced today the further development of AmbientPQM™, an advanced Power Quality Monitoring solution that enables enhanced grid visibility for utilities.
This latest development, M-PQM, is an enhancement of the existing solution, which enables the monitoring of multiple sources of power quality data in both the medium- and low-voltage distribution grid simultaneously.
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=56040816&symbol=AMBT
AmbientPQM is a combination of software and hardware (PQM application, and Ambient Smart Grid® Nodes and Sensors) that enables utilities to measure an array of power quality parameters on medium- and/or low-voltage distribution grids, on overhead or underground lines, and at distribution transformers.
AmbientPQM Benefits:
Remote monitoring in real time
Extensive power quality parameters accurately measured for actionable data
Supports Volt VAR Optimization
Provides early warning of power quality issues
Helps prevent outages and protect assets
Enhances speed of restoration after outages, reducing Customer Minutes Lost (CML)
Easy and quick installation with no outage required
Part of an extensible and flexible platform for multiple smart grid applications, optimizing return on investment (ROI)
Ambient's Chief Technology Officer, Ram Rao, said, "This additional capability of our application reinforces the flexibility of the Ambient Smart Grid platform to provide invaluable information to maintain and improve efficiency and reliability for grid infrastructure. AmbientPQM facilitates real-time visibility to help deal with the multiple challenges faced by the distribution grid. It can be a vital component in helping to avoid outages and quickly restore power when they occur, resulting in better customer service."
AmbientPQM is an application that is hosted on the Ambient Smart Grid Nodes™ and integrated within the Ambient AmbientNMS® (Network Management System) to facilitate configuration, management, analysis, and transfer of collected data on required sensing parameters. Data collection, reporting, and alerts for each of the sensing parameters are highly configurable and allow users to define configurations as required.
All of Ambient's products and solutions will be on display at DistribuTECH, January 29-31, 2012, in San Diego, CA in booth #1342.

METALICO ENHANCES FOOTPRINT IN CLEVELAND, ROCHESTER
CRANFORD, NJ, December 17, 2012 - Metalico, Inc. (NYSE MKT: MEA) has increased its scrap metal recycling presence in northeastern Ohio and Western New York with a new venture in the Cleveland market and an acquisition in the Greater Rochester area.
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=55494729&symbol=MEA
In Cleveland, the Company has set up operations in a joint venture at 3018 East 55th Street, the site of a previous scrap yard in the city's traditional industrial sector. Managed by industry veteran Joseph Immormino, the strategically located facility, operating as "Metalico JBI Cleveland," is expected to develop a brisk scrap peddler flow and to service new accounts while supporting Metalico's existing yards in Akron and Youngstown.
The Company's Metalico Rochester, Inc. subsidiary has purchased the assets of Bergen Auto Recycling, LLC, including its junk car inventory and real property located at 7652 Clinton Street Road in suburban Bergen, New York. Metalico plans to significantly expand Bergen Auto's salvage car buying capabilities and continue its "pick-and-pull" auto parts business while taking advantage of additional access to scrap metal to feed its shredding facility in Buffalo, New York.
Terms and consideration for the two transactions were not disclosed.
"These additions to our network should have an immediate benefit for us," said Carlos E. Agüero, Metalico's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our full-service scrap yard platforms are already well established in both of these geographic regions and have ample processing capacity to handle additional flow. Our expansion into these new locations is consistent with Metalico's growth strategy of penetrating geographically contiguous markets and benefiting from intercompany and operating synergies that are available through consolidation."
Metalico, Inc. is a holding company with operations in three principal business segments: Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Scrap Metal Recycling, PGM and Minor Metals Recycling, and Fabrication of Lead-Based Products. The Company operates 29 recycling facilities in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, New Jersey, Texas, and Mississippi and four lead fabricating plants in Alabama, Illinois, and California. Metalico's common stock is traded on the NYSE MKT under the symbol MEA.

Exactly! Dilution has nothing to do with their restrictions which are beside the point when you are talking about a hedge fund. Do you think perhaps they may decide to hedge their investment anyway?
My point is that I don't think it's accurate to claim that YIPI is not diluting. Their financing might not require the sale of stock by the lender but it probably facilitates the process.

In November 2011, the Company issued 135,000 shares of common stock as compensation to two consultants. The fair market value of
the common stock was $45,300.
In December 2011, the Company issued 70,000 shares of common stock as compensation for fees to execute a Note Payable Contract.
The fair market value of the common stock was $30,800.
In February 2012, the Company issued 84,000 shares of common stock as compensation for fees to execute 2 Note Payable Contracts.
The fair market value of the common stock was $16,668.

Index fund managers use it to build a portfolio that will track the overall index. For a tiny component like AMBT this may not have any significant impact since the investments are weighted based on their proportion of the actual index. This allows fundies to replicate the performance of the index. It is possible that it will increase institutional (and retail) investors who consider the index a qualification for investment...and we qualified! Having seen this stock in thinner times, it is amazing to me we are exchange listed and index listed. Like you said, it just gives us a little more visibility. It probably boosts the volatility, as well.

LeapFrog banking on new devices to bounce back
By Miguel Helft, senior writer June 18, 2012: 8:30 PM ET
FORTUNE -- "You know the difference between this and an iPad," asks John Barbour, the convivial CEO of LeapFrog Enterprises. Barbour, a burly man of 53 with a thick Scottish accent, is holding a LeapPad, the educational company's made-for-kids tablet computer, which is playing the background tune to one of its learning games. Before I get a chance to say "what," Barbour flings the LeapPad at me as if it were a Frisbee.
I duck reflexively as the LeapPad misses the top of my head by just a few inches and crashes against the wall behind me, sending Barbour into a full-throated, good-natured guffaw. I turn to look at the LeapPad, which is intact and still playing the children's jingle, and notice a handful of gashes on the wall. Clearly Barbour has played this trick before. "That may not seem to be a big point," Barbour says after his "ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha" dies down. "That is a big point. You want me to try that with an iPad?"

Toys R Us loses marketing chief to LeapFrog
Mon, Jun 18 2012
By Dhanya Skariachan
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/06/18/leapfrog-toysrus-ahearn-idUSL1E8HI2Y620120618?feedType=RSS&feedName=cyclicalConsumerGoodsSector&rpc=43
NEW YORK, June 18 (Reuters) - Educational toymaker LeapFrog Enterprises Inc named Toys R Us executive Greg Ahearn as its chief marketing officer effectively immediately, just months before the all-important holiday selling season.
Ahearn was most recently the chief marketing officer of Toys R Us, the world's largest specialty toy retailer. He has also worked at toymakers Hasbro Inc and Mattel Inc.
In his new position, Ahearn will be in charge of the LeapFrog brand globally with responsibilities including product marketing, licensing, content development and public relations. He will report directly to LeapFrog CEO John Barbour.
Peter Reiner, senior vice president of marketing at Toys R Us' U.S. division, who previously reported to Ahearn, is now leading the marketing function at the retailer, company spokeswoman Kathleen Waugh said in an e-mail to Reuters.
The holiday season is very important to toy companies as many of them make more than one-third of their annual sales in the key buying season.
Ahearn is the latest high-profile executive to leave Toys R Us. Neil Friedman, president of U.S. operations for Toys R Us, resigned in February, less than a year after he joined the company.
Chief Administrative Officer Deborah Derby and Chief Merchandising Officer Karen Dodge also left Toys R Us earlier this year, following a lackluster 2011 holiday season. Two other senior vice presidents in merchandising have also departed, led by CEO Gerald "Jerry" Storch.
Toys R Us, based in Wayne, New Jersey, filed its IPO plans with regulators in May 2010, but has yet to go public.
LeapFrog Announces LeapPad 2™ And Leapster GS™
LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: LF), the leader in educational entertainment, today announced two revolutionary new platforms: LeapPad2, the next generation of the #1 kid's learning tablet LeapPad™, and LeapsterGS, the ultimate learning video game system.

http://www.multivu.com/mnr/54819-leapfrog-announces-leappad-2-and-leapster-gs
The #1 Kid's Learning Tablet Just Got Better Within a year of launch, LeapPad has received more than 20 accolades, including three prestigious awards from the Toy Industry Association (Educational Toy of the Year, Preschool Toy of the Year, and the ultimate recognition - Toy of the Year). LeapFrog introduces LeapPad2, the next generation of its magical tablet that delivers education filled with entertainment and fun creative exploration for kids.
"We were surprised by the incredible consumer demand for the LeapPad from the day it launched," said John Barbour, chief executive officer at LeapFrog. "It was one of the hottest and hardest-to-find kids' products last holiday season, and it received significant praise from parents, educators and the industry. With the introduction of the innovative LeapPad2 platform, LeapFrog continues to revolutionize and lead the category with engaging entertainment experiences filled with life-changing education that help children reach their potential."
The new LeapPad2 features higher resolution front-and-back cameras and video recorders, the new faster LF 2000 processor and double the memory (4 GB), all housed in a durable, kid-friendly design. LeapPad2 also has improved battery life and is compatible with a new internal battery system and recharger pack available separately.
LeapPad2 includes extensive free content: a music player with five LeapFrog Learning Songs, a new Cartoon Director creativity app, an Art Studio creativity app, the popular Pet Pad writing app and choice of an additional app. LeapPad2's exclusive Cartoon Director app makes the most out of the new features, letting kids develop their inner director by creating and starring in their very own cartoons, as well as sharing their masterpieces with family and friends.
By year's end, the LeapPad content library will feature more than 325 game cartridges, apps, music, videos, eBooks and more. LeapPad2 is compatible with LeapFrog Explorer cartridges and LeapFrog App Center digital content.
The Ultimate Learning Game SystemTo date, LeapFrog's Leapster video gaming products have garnered more than 50 awards. In 2011 Leapster Explorer, the #1 selling learning game handheld, was awarded Educational Toy of the Year from the Toy Industry Association. LeapsterGS, the newest addition to the Leapster family, will offer fast-action gameplay packed with rich learning in a revolutionary new learning video game system.
"Kids are exposed to and desire video games at an earlier age than ever. While a gaming system is sometimes inevitable, many parents would prefer to have an education-filled alternative," said Barbour. "With LeapsterGS, we have created a video gaming system that parents and kids can agree on. Kids will love the action-packed gameplay and parents will feel confident that their child is learning while doing something they love."
LeapsterGS is a substantial improvement over the current Leapster Explorer. It has a new thinner sleek design, larger screen, built-in motion sensor plus camera and video recorder, the new faster LF 2000 processor and 4x the internal memory (2 GB). LeapsterGS is compatible with a new internal battery system and recharger pack available separately.
This new generation Leapster provides the ultimate educational video gaming experience. Kids can take charge of the action with the built-in motion sensor by tilting, turning and shaking their way through the game. They can also bring the real world into their play—and put themselves right into the game—with the built-in camera, video recorder and microphone. LeapsterGS delivers on fast-action gameplay while building core skills for success in school and in life.
LeapsterGS comes with free content including the new "Escape of the Sillies" game app, the popular Pet Pad writing app and choice of an additional app. Exclusive to LeapsterGS, the "Escape of the Sillies" app immerses kids into the game with the built-in camera and face-morphing technology, where they will customize faces of silly monsters while building their math skills.
By year's end, the LeapsterGS content library will feature more than 300 action-packed game cartridges, apps, music, videos, eBooks and more. LeapsterGS is compatible with LeapFrog Explorer cartridges and LeapFrog App Center digital content.
A Robust Content LibraryLeapPad2 and LeapsterGS open the door to a shared library full of engaging and educational content. To help parents navigate the massive amount of children's digital content of vastly varying degrees of quality that are available today, LeapFrog has created a complete solution of high-quality content that is safe and age-appropriate. This robust library is a combination of LeapFrog educational entertainment content designed by in-house educational and gaming experts, and engaging content from some of the biggest names in children's entertainment, carefully selected by LeapFrog's experts for educational value and age appropriateness.
Whether kids want fast-action gaming or to explore their inner artist, every LeapFrog game cartridge and app is embedded with core learning skills. The LeapFrog App Center, which launched in 2011, is filled with high-quality collections of educational apps, music, and videos from content partners to original LeapFrog properties including LeapSchool. The aspirational gaming features of LeapsterGS put kids into the action and keep them practicing important academic skills. The intuitive tablet format of LeapPad2 inspires kids to explore creativity and build skills including phonics, vocabulary, math, science and more—in addition to offering them their very own video and music player.
