AUSTIN, Texas, May 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- MyEdu today announced the launch of a 30-day free trial of MyEdu for Employers that allows any company to post a targeted job or internship and easily connect with applicants and suggested ideal candidates. Employers focused on recruiting early professionals can now connect with college students who have the right skills, talents and experiences without wasting limited resources sorting through the overwhelming number of applicants that surface through untargeted job postings.

Over 400,000 students from thousands of universities and community college campuses nationwide have created rich personal profiles on MyEdu. Sixty percent of them report that they are creating their first professional profile on MyEdu—well before professional networking sites. With MyEdu for Employers, hiring managers can connect with students, beginning their freshmen year, who have the right mix of skills and experience to be a valuable part of their team.
"Recruiting college students is essential to our success," said Suzanne Holloway, the Campus Advocacy Manager for Top Hat, who is currently using the MyEdu for Employers free trial. "We receive a lot of resumes from college students, but we were looking to single out the students who have a unique set of attributes to be successful at our company. MyEdu provides the best tools for targeting that I have seen, and I love the highly visual profile view for each student."
"For many employers and recruiters, efforts to reach targeted groups of students and recent graduates are expensive, time-consuming, and out of reach for many businesses," said Frank Lyman, Chief Products Officer at MyEdu. "Opening this free trial means we can introduce employers to students they wouldn't have otherwise met, and introduce students to a wide range of job and internship opportunities that are customized to their experience and interests."
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, recruiters spend an average of over $5,000 per student they hire. MyEdu aims to reduce this cost and increase efficiency by serving up the best possible candidates to recruiters in a way that is optimized for both the student and the company—creating lasting, organic connections throughout students' academic journeys into their job searches.
HOW IT WORKS:Companies use MyEdu for Employers to build their brand with students, post highly targeted jobs and internships, and connect with students introduced to them through MyEdu's Talent Search and Talent Scout services. MyEdu's Student Profile is key to the effectiveness of the employer tools as it includes unique information provided by students about their school, degree, course work, projects, work and volunteer experience, location preferences and – most importantly – skills. This rich data set allows employers to target on unique attributes and connect with the right candidates, not just generate a flood of resumes. It also allows MyEdu to introduce highly relevant candidates to employers that they may not have otherwise known about.
MyEdu for Employers includes a dashboard that displays each job post and shows student applicants, including the top candidates who have been personally matched to the recruiter's criteria using information pulled from each student's profile. The dashboard gives recruiters real-time updates on potential candidates and student job views, and MyEdu's Talent Scout services sends personalized emails highlighting the best candidates for the position an employer has posted.
Since its launch in January, MyEdu for Employers has been utilized by top college recruiters, such as Macy's, Ernst & Young, VMware and Waste Management, as well fast-growing small and medium sized businesses like uShip, Holtzman Partners and RetailMeNot. With direct access to over 1 million users, no other recruiting platform provides companies a dedicated platform to connect with students at the outset of college and maintain a lasting presence throughout students' academic journeys.
To sign up for a free trial of MyEdu for Employers go to https://employer.myedu.com.
About MyEdu MyEdu is the top destination for college students to manage their academic journey, build their first professional profile, and connect with employers. From the day they begin college students can utilize MyEdu's data-rich applications to plan their course of study, visually display their skills and credentials, connect with hiring managers and secure jobs and internships.

LONDON, Ky., May 21, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Puissant Industries, Inc. (OTCBB: PSSS) ("Puissant" or the "Company"), an independent energy company currently focused on the natural gas and liquids rich portion of the Devonian shale play in Eastern Kentucky, today announced that based on an independent engineering report its proven natural gas and oil reserves at December 31, 2012 were 14.843 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas and .177 million barrels of oil, or 2.650 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) (1Bbl = 6 Mcf basis).
The present value, discounted at 10%, of the estimated future net cash flows before income taxes (PV-10) of the Company's total proved reserves at December 31, 2012 was $18.084 million. The December 31, 2012 PV-10 was determined using the 12-month unweighted average of the first-day-of-the- month oil and natural gas prices for 2012 of $94.71 per barrel of oil and $2.752 per million British thermal units (MMbtu), respectively adjusted for quality, energy content, and other expenses.
PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and generally differs from Standardized Measure, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future net revenues. PV-10 is not an estimate of the fair market values of the properties. Puissant and others in the industry use PV-10 as a measure to compare the relative size and value of proved reserves held by companies and the potential return on investment related to the companies properties without regard to specific tax characteristics of such entities.

ODESSA, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 05/21/13 -- Dr. Robin Rutherford, an Odessa and Midland dentist, offers cosmetic, implant, and general dentistry services to Odessa and the surrounding areas. With a commitment to offering the latest technology the field has to offer, The Art of Dentistry, Dr. Rutherford's practice, is now providing laser-assisted procedures. Having been ranked one of the nation's leading dental practices, it is important to Dr. Rutherford to ensure that his facilities remain state-of-the-art.
Dr. Rutherford notes that laser technology is not new to the medical field, as lasers have been frequently used in areas such as ophthalmology and physical therapy. However, the use of lasers is a relatively new practice in dentistry. Dr. Rutherford points out that lasers in dentistry can be utilized in a variety of ways. For example, in cosmetic dentistry, if a patient seeks porcelain veneers, Dr. Rutherford can use a laser to reshape and re-contour the patient's gum-line. If the patient's teeth are not level, then the gum line will not be level even after the porcelain veneers are in place. However, laser use during a smile makeover creates a symmetrical smile for patients who have teeth at varying levels.
Laser dentistry can also be used to treat periodontal gum disease and promote faster healing. When treating a patient with gum disease, Dr. Rutherford's periodontal therapist generally cleans the teeth thoroughly and mechanically, removing tartar. By utilizing lasers to assist in this process, Dr. Rutherford's periodontal therapist can help the gums heal faster around the treated teeth, removing infected material with the laser. An additional benefit of this laser-assisted method is a greater level of comfort for the patient.
While laser dentistry has been used in other states, Texas has only recently been allowed to use lasers in dentistry practice. Dr. Rutherford and his hygiene team have been following the developments and advancements of laser dentistry in other states for the past few years. He is excited to now be able to offer his patients the field's latest technology at his practice.
About Robin Rutherford, DDS
A graduate of Texas A&M University, Dr. Robin Rutherford earned his dental degree from the University of Texas Dental School at San Antonio. He is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and the American Orthodontic Society, as well as a Fellow of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation and a Diplomate of the American Dental Implant Association. For the past two years, Dr. Rutherford has been featured in Texas Monthly magazine as a "Texas Super Dentist" and was selected to the Consumer Research Council's Guide to America's Top Dentists.

LONDON--(Marketwired - May 21, 2013) -
AIM:AMA / TSX:AMZ
Amara Mining plc
("Amara" or "the Company")
GRANTING OF ENVIRONMENTAL PERMIT FOR SEGA GOLD PROJECT
Amara Mining plc, the dual AIM and TSX-listed West African focused gold mining company, is pleased to announce that it has been granted the Environmental Permit for its Sega Gold Project ("Sega") in Burkina Faso, 20km to the north of its Kalsaka Gold Mine ("Kalsaka"). This is a major achievement in the integration of Kalsaka and Sega, which is expected to ensure that Amara continues production in Burkina Faso until at least 2015 based on Sega's current Mineral Resources, as demonstrated in the Preliminary Economic Assessment.
Local leaders were intimately involved in the formulation of Amara's Resettlement Action Plan ("RAP"), which has been accepted by the Burkina Faso Government. The first phase of the RAP is expected to be implemented shortly and the Company foresees no difficulties in this step.
As announced on 30 April 2013, Amara received the environmental and construction permits for the haul road to connect Kalsaka and Sega in advance of the full Environmental Permit. A contractor has been appointed to build the road and construction work has now begun on the Sega licence area. The new jaw crusher has been installed at Kalsaka and the additional crushing circuit, which will be installed at Sega, has arrived at Kalsaka. Amara is going to apply to the Government for permission to begin the installation of the crushing circuit at Sega in advance of a decision regarding the award of the Mining Licence in order to expedite the process of bringing Sega into production.
Following the receipt of the Environmental Permit, Amara will now apply for the Mining Licence, which is anticipated to be granted approximately six weeks after the Environmental Permit. The mobile mining fleet at Kalsaka will then be moved to Sega and it is expected that this will enable mining to commence at Sega during Q3 2013.
