“While most of the world economies have struggled with the financial crisis and recession, India’s economy has remained strong,” said Brady Bruce, Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Alliances at Jupiter Systems. “India is Asia’s third largest economy, with growth that is expected to outpace China’s within the next three to five years.

Jupiter provides processors used to control large display walls that enable the visualization of large numbers of data inputs and sources. These display walls are frequently used in industries that support a country’s basic infrastructure, such as transportation, defense, security, power, telecommunications and mining. Display wall processors provide the nerve center for video walls used in control room operations. These powerful systems elicit data from a broad range of information sources and present it on a large display wall or an operator’s desk where it can be viewed, shared, and manipulated. Jupiter controllers provide an easy-to-use, high resolution graphical user interface that enables the viewer to see events as they happen in the field and that allows users to zero in on specific areas within that field of reference.
Fusion Catalyst™
Jupiter’s Fusion Catalyst line of display wall processors provide a centralized solution for control room projects that require high performance and reliability in a cost effective, space-efficient platform. A Fusion Catalyst Display Wall Processor incorporates all of the visual data sources found in a control room environment and displays them in movable, scalable windows on a virtual display comprised of multiple output devices: monitors, LCD flat panels, plasma panels, projection cubes, or a rear projection system. Data sources can include local applications, remote network applications, remote network RGB streams, compressed network video streams, directly connected SD and HD video, VGA, and DVI inputs. All data sources are accessed from an intuitive and consistent software interface that provides complete control of the virtual display surface.
PixelNet®
Jupiter’s PixelNet® distributed display wall system utilizes data network technology to capture, distribute, control and display digital and analog video sources for audiovisual applications. PixelNet adopts Gigabit Ethernet and Ethernet switches for use with high resolution, real-time video. Using packet-switching technology, PixelNet® allows any information source to be shown on any display, whether as a window on a single display or as a window spanning multiple display devices in a display wall. In addition, PixelNet® allows any source to be shown at any size on any display or array of displays.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Rohatyn Group ("TRG"), a private investment firm focused on emerging markets, announced today a definitive agreement with the CIMB Group (“CIMB”) to acquire a 60 percent stake in CapAsia, a Singapore-based mid-market infrastructure private equity firm focused exclusively on non-BRIC Emerging Asia. CapAsia in total has raised over USD 500 million in capital commitments and has more than USD 400 million in assets under management.
Founded in 2006 by CIMB and Standard Bank of South Africa, CapAsia has over 18 investment professionals and offices in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, and Bangkok and manages three infrastructure investment vehicles, one of which is Shari’ah compliant. TRG will acquire 60 percent of the general partner interest in some of these funds as part of the transaction.
The Malaysian-based CIMB, Southeast Asia's fifth largest bank by market capitalization, became CapAsia's sole shareholder when it acquired Standard Bank's interest in CapAsia in 2011. Upon closing of the transaction with TRG, CIMB will own 40 percent of CapAsia and will continue to be supportive of the firm's operational and growth initiatives.
The CapAsia transaction marks the continuation of TRG's growth strategy in Asia. In 2011, TRG acquired 50 percent of ARCH Capital, a Hong Kong-headquartered Asian focused private equity real estate firm, from the Ayala Group of the Philippines. Additionally, TRG continues to have a strong presence in liquid emerging markets asset management products.
Nicolas Rohatyn, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of TRG, said, "The CapAsia transaction builds on TRG’s strategy to grow our private investing business in Asia in infrastructure and real estate and well complements our 2011 investment in ARCH Capital. CapAsia provides a unique and leading investment platform in this attractive and fast growing region and enables us to partner with CIMB, which has extensive reach and deep sector expertise. The CapAsia team, led by Johan Bastin, boasts unmatched local industry knowledge and relationships through a proven senior leadership that has consistently grown its business across a number of important and underserved regions, and we welcome them to the TRG team.”
Nazir Razak, CIMB Chief Executive Officer, said, “The Rohatyn Group is a leading investment management firm that brings the right strategies, perspective and global platform to support the continued growth of CapAsia. We are excited about this transaction and are confident that with the support of TRG and CIMB, the CapAsia team is very well positioned to maximize its opportunities.”
Johan Bastin, CapAsia Chief Executive Officer, said, “The commitment to CapAsia by The Rohatyn Group and CIMB is a strong endorsement of CapAsia’s strength and growth potential. By combining TRG's standing in alternative asset management, CIMB's unparalleled presence in our core markets and our deep expertise and distinct approach to infrastructure investment management, CapAsia has further strengthened the foundations for sustainable expansion and excellence in delivering value to its investors. CapAsia's singular geographic coverage, on the ground presence in key markets and mid-market focus provide unique advantages to its investments. We look forward to working with TRG and further deepening our relationship with CIMB."
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the first quarter of 2012 in accordance with customary closing conditions.
Founded in 2003, The Rohatyn Group is a leading emerging markets asset management firm with offices in New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, London, Buenos Aires, Lima, Montevideo, and São Paulo.

CLEWISTON, Fla., Feb. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- EverStart pro Randall Tharp of Gardendale, Ala., had endured three days of tough weather and wind and managed to lead the first three days of competition at the Walmart FLW Tour on Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude. All he needed was one more solid day's weight to claim his first FLW Tour title.
Tharp caught a five-bass limit weighing 23 pounds, 2 ounces Sunday to win $125,000 with a four-day catch of 20 bass weighing 101-12. The catch gave him the win by a massive 23-pound, 9-ounce margin over John Cox of Debary, Fla., who caught a total of 20 bass weighing 78-3 and earned $35,000. Tharp's margin of victory broke the FLW Tour record set by National Guard pro Brett Hite (20-4, Lake Toho, 2008).

"I felt like I could catch 30 pounds a day if I fished perfect," said Tharp, who adds an FLW title to his four BFL wins and one EverStart Series victory. "I would have liked to have caught more, but I'm pretty tickled with the way things turned out.
"When I caught the first big one today and it put me at 19 (pounds) and I caught the second big one I didn't say anything, but when I caught the third one I knew it was over," Tharp added.
Tharp said the one constant during the tournament was the wind. High winds wreaked havoc on anglers' plans as water clarity went south. Many anglers struggled to adapt and catch fish.
"It was not what you want in south Florida," Tharp said. "We had a wind chill of 27 degrees this morning. The winds were sustained 20 (miles per hour) with gusts to 40. The style I was fishing is what you need to do under those conditions."
And Tharp's style of fishing just happened to be what he loves to do – use a big rod, heavy line and big weights to flip grass. Tharp fished the north end of the lake and threw a black with blue flake Bitters Baits B.F.M. paired with a 1 1/2-ounce pegged sinker. Tharp said he boated eight keepers during the course of the day.
"I've done pretty good on just about every type of body of water, but I prefer to fish a grass lake," Tharp said. "Any grass lake is different when you go back. You never catch them in the same places because the grass is different. Okeechobee is a prime example of that.
"I've known for a long time that if I could win just one Tour-level event this is the lake I'd want it to happen on," Tharp added. "So now I've got that out of the way and I can set my sights on other places."
The remaining top 10 pros finished the tournament in:
|
3rd: |
Jeremy York, Monroe, Ga., 20 bass, 74-2, $30,000 |
|
4th: |
Art Ferguson III, St. Clair Shores, Mich., 20 bass, 71-5, $25,000 |
|
5th: |
Brandon McMillan, Clewiston, Fla., 16 bass, 64-6, $20,000 |
|
6th: |
Chevy pro Bryan Thrift, Shelby, N.C., 16 bass, 61-12, $17,000 |
|
7th: |
Roland Martin, Naples, Fla., 15 bass, 59-6, $16,000 |
|
8th: |
National Guard pro Scott Martin, Clewiston, Fla., 15 bass, 56-3, $15,000 |
|
9th: |
Steve Kennedy, Auburn, Ala., 16 bass, 55-8, $14,000 |
|
10th: |
Nick Gainey, Charleston, S.C., 15 bass, 54-5, $13,000 |
A complete list of results can be found at FLWOutdoors.com.
Overall there were 27 bass weighing 77 pounds, 12 ounces caught by pros Sunday. The catch included four five-bass limits.
Aymon Wilcox of Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., won the co-angler division and $20,000 Saturday with a three-day total of 15 bass weighing 44 pounds, 4 ounces followed by Spiro Agouros of Peterborough, Ontario, in second place with 13 bass weighing 38-0 worth $7,625.
In FLW Tour Open tournaments, pros and co-anglers are competing for valuable points that could help them qualify for the 2013 Forrest Wood Cup presented by Walmart, the world championship of bass fishing. The top five pro and co-anglers in the point standings from the four FLW Tour Open tournaments will qualify.
The Tour stop on Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude was hosted by Roland & Mary Ann Martins Marina & Resort, and was the first of 10 Walmart FLW Tour tournaments of the 2011 season. The Walmart FLW Tour on Lake Hartwell presented by Folgers will be the next tournament and will be held March 8-11 in Greenville/Anderson, S.C. The event will be hosted by the Greenville Convention & Visitors Bureau and the Anderson Convention & Visitors Bureau and boats will launch from Portman Shoals Marina in Anderson, S.C. For a complete schedule, visit FLWOutdoors.com.
Coverage of the Lake Okeechobee tournament will be broadcast in high-definition (HD) on NBC Sports Network when "FLW" airs March 18 from 1 to 2 p.m. ET.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In memory of Whitney Houston, OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network will present a special two hour "Remembering Whitney: The Oprah Interview," with the music legend's last in-depth television interview from "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to air this Thursday, February 16 from 9-11 p.m. ET/PT on OWN.
This special television event, what is arguably Houston's most revealing and compelling interview of her career, will be rebroadcast as Winfrey reflects on her personal memories of the iconic superstar and shares with fans the magic of a musical icon who has gone too soon.
In September 2009 for the "The Oprah Winfrey Show" season 24 premiere, Winfrey sat down with Houston for a special one-on-one interview. After nearly seven years since the world heard the music icon's voice, Houston gave an intimate and poignant performance of "I Didn't Know My Own Strength." She shared only with Winfrey the private struggles she tried to hide from public view and discussed openly about her marriage to R&B star Bobby Brown, her struggles with drug abuse and why she retreated from the spotlight. Opening up to Winfrey like never before, Houston also spoke candidly of the day she left her husband, her sorrow over the death of Michael Jackson and her hopes for her future.
