Arbor Networks, Inc., a leading provider of security and network management solutions for enterprise and service provider networks, will be participating at this years NCTA Cable Show in Boston on May 23. Arbor Networks will give insight on how its been helping Comcast prepare for, and manage the transition to IPv6 for the last several years.

WHO: Carlos Morales, Vice President, Systems Engineering and Sales Operations at Arbor Networks

WHAT: Morales will present on a panel moderated by Charlotte Field, Senior Vice President, National Communications Engineering at Comcast Cable. Other panelists include Don Bowman, CTO, Sandvine; Martin Hannigan, Senior Architect, Akamai Technologies, Inc.; Walter Johnson, Chief, Electromagnetic Compatibility Division, Federal Communications Commission; and Doug Montgomery, Manager, Internet & Scalable Systems Research, NIST. The session, IPv6 03- Keeping Tabs: Measurement and Benchmarking IPv6, underscores the importance of measurements and benchmarking specific to IPv6 and the tools and methodologies that are actively used today.

Comcast uses Arbors technology to gain visibility into the ever-changing and dynamic IPv6 landscape. Arbor provides IPv6 traffic monitoring and reporting, and analyzes IP flow data to detect and mitigate distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. In fact, the first-ever IPv6 DDoS attacks were reported last year according to Arbors annual Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report. This marks a significant milestone in the arms race between attackers and defenders, and confirms that network operators must have sufficient visibility and mitigation capabilities to protect IPv6-enabled properties.

The global appetite for contactless technologies shows no sign of abating as the 2012 Contactless Intelligence Contactless & Mobile Awards honour achievements across a wide range of sectors and countries throughout Europe and further a field.

Now in its fifth year, the Contactless & Mobile Awards (this year sponsored by Visa Europe and Telefonica O2) has yet again attracted a record turnout, making it an important fixture in the contactless calendar. Weve seen entry numbers grow year-on-year, highlighting the dynamism of this burgeoning industry, said Steve Atkins, CEO of Krowne Communications, the company behind Contactless Intelligence. Whereas other awards ceremonies focus on behind-the-scenes technological innovations, we honour those firms that are really making a difference in getting contactless devices into the hands of users and encouraging consumers to use them at both major international and small retailers throughout the world. This year we changed the categories slightly to reflect the growing spectrum of uses and implementations of contactless and NFC technology as you would expect from such a dynamic industry. The quality and quantity of entries reflect this dynamism.

This years CMA champions accepted their trophies at a gala dinner at Tower Bridge Hilton, London, on April 26, 2012. The winners are:

The campgrounds new Pinterest account will kick off with pin boards highlighting ‘Single Sock Occupations,’ ‘The Crafty Sock,’ ‘Laughing Our Socks Off,’ and ‘It Socks to be Lonely’ sock personal ads.”

This event is part of Ocean Lakes year-long theme called Leap Into Fun, which started in February due to leap year. Ocean Lakes teammates and guests have recognized unofficial holidays that have fun themes, providing activities in the park and online to campground guests.

The Rottenstein Law Group, which represents clients with claims stemming from the adverse effects of vaginal mesh, eagerly anticipates the Feb. 15, 2013, start date of the first federal-court trial over injuries allegedly sustained by women as a result of having received vaginal mesh implants manufactured by C.R. Bard (MDL No. 2187).

Chief Judge Joseph Goodwin, who is presiding over the multi-district litigation (MDL) consolidating 600 cases against Bard for vaginal mesh injuries, set the Feb. 15 trial start date last week, according to an article on BloombergBusinessweek.

The MDL centralizes the Bard cases in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, where Judge Goodwin presides over the pre-trial proceedings for all of them, but the cases will still be tried as separate actions. The cases all involve injuries allegedly sustained as a result of Bards vaginal mesh products, most of which bear brand names that include Avaulta or the prefix Pevi-.

Cases against three other vaginal mesh manufacturers have been similarly consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, where their pre-trial proceedings are also presided over by Judge Goodwin: MDL No. 2325 consolidates cases involving American Medical Systemss vaginal mesh products; MDL No. 2326 consolidates cases involving Boston Scientific Corp.s vaginal mesh products; and MDL No. 2327 consolidates cases involving Ethicon Inc.s vaginal mesh products.

As a law firm that is representing many of the claimants in the vaginal mesh MDLs, the Rottenstein Law Group eagerly anticipates the start of the MDL case against Bard tnow scheduled to commence on Feb. 15, 2013, as well as the commencement of the vaginal mesh MDL cases that have yet to be assigned start dates. The firm’s Vaginal Mesh Lawsuit Information Center, at http://www.vaginalmeshlawsuit.com, describes all of the issues that vaginal mesh victims face and explains their options. It has features that allow for easy sharing, including links for automatic posting on Facebook and Twitter, specifically to enable visitors to spread the word about vaginal mesh implants and the dangers of vaginal mesh products. The Rottenstein Law Group, a personal injury firm, encourages visitors to link to its sites from their own blogs and websites to spread information about defective medical products and dangerous drugs.

In the past five years, more than $ 3 billion of foreign capital have been invested into the U.S. through EB-5, creating thousands of jobs in a variety of industries.

TAG Oil Ltd. (TSX: TAO and OTCQX: TAOIF) is pleased to announce that the recently drilled Cheal-B6, Cheal-A9 and Cheal-A10 wells confirm a commercial oil discovery within the Urenui Formation at a depth of approximately 1400 meters. Strong initial flow test results were achieved, with each individual well having the capability to initially produce approximately 200 barrels of light oil per day, plus associated gas from high-quality reservoir sands.

Permit-wide 3-D seismic interpretation, including data from pre-existing wells which all intersected Urenui pay, indicates that the Urenui Formation has been deposited as a blanket sand, and is prospective for oil discovery across the Cheal permit.

The Cheal-B6, Cheal-A9 and Cheal-A10 wells will be placed on full-time production, along with other established production, once the enhancements to Cheals artificial lift capabilities have been completed. These upgrades will allow TAG Oil to produce all existing and future wells simultaneously, and are expected to be complete within the next three months.

TAG Oil CEO Garth Johnson commented, These results continue to demonstrate the significant upside potential at Cheal, and they open a new widespread oil play across the permit. Based on these consistent results, we will now integrate the Urenui oil play into our overall development and exploration strategy, which will also include Mt. Messenger wells and the deeper liquids-rich Kapuni Formation gas play.

TAG also reports that the new VR500 drill rig, which the Company has under exclusive contract, has been mobilized to the Cheal-C site discovery area in preparation to spud the Cheal-C3 and Cheal-C4 wells. The Cheal-C3 and Cheal-C4 wells are follow-on wells to the Cheal C site discoveries, including the Cheal-C2 gas condensate discovery well, primarily targeting the Mt. Messenger Formation. The Cheal-C2 well achieved stabilized flow rates of approximately 14 million cubic feet gas per day (~2,333 barrels of oil equivalent per day) on a 48/64 choke, with associated condensate production, which was increasing during the 10-day flow test.

The 100%-TAG-owned Cheal oil and gas field is located in the Taranaki Basin of New Zealand.

TAG Oil Ltd.

TAG Oil Ltd. (http://www.tagoil.com/) is a Canadian-based production and exploration company with operations focused exclusively in New Zealand. With 100% control over all its core assets, including oil and gas production infrastructure, TAG is anticipating substantial oil and gas production and reserve growth through development of several light oil and gas discoveries. TAG is also actively drilling high-impact exploration prospects identified across more than 1,300 sections of land in the onshore Taranaki and East Coast Basins of New Zealands North Island.

In the East Coast Basin, TAG has entered into a farm-out agreement with Apache Corporation to explore and potentially develop the major unconventional resource potential estimated in the tight oil source-rock formations that are widespread over the Companys acreage. These oil-rich and naturally fractured formations have many similarities to North Americas Bakken source-rock formation in the successful Williston Basin.

Cautionary Note Regarding Anticipated Results and Forward-Looking Statements:

Statements contained in this news release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainty affecting the business of TAG Oil. Such statements can generally, but not always, be identified by words such as expects, plans, anticipates, intends, estimates, forecasts, schedules, prepares, potential and similar expressions, or that events or conditions will, would,, may, could or should occur. These statements are based on certain factors and assumptions including:

A. all estimates and statements that describe the Companys objectives, goals, or future plans relating to the seismic, testing and drilling programs in Taranaki are forward-looking statements under applicable securities laws and necessarily involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation: risks associated with oil and gas exploration, development, exploitation, production, marketing and transportation, volatility of commodity prices, imprecision of reserve estimates, environmental risks, competition from other producers, and changes in the regulatory and taxation environment. These forward-looking statements are based on certain factors and assumptions, including factors and assumptions regarding the managements views on the oil and gas potential in the Permits, well performance, the success of any operations, completing infrastructure and the costs necessary to complete the operations; and

B. those relating to TAG Oils successful exploration and development of its oil and gas properties within the Cheal and Sidewinder project areas, the production and establishment of additional production of oil and gas in accordance with TAG Oils expectations at Cheal and Sidewinder, well performance, the completion of new infrastructure at Cheal and Sidewinder, the increase of cash flow from new production, oil and gas price assumptions and fluctuations, foreign exchange rates, expected growth, results of operations, performance, prospects, evaluations and opportunities and effective income tax rates. While TAG Oil considers these factors and assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available, they may prove to be incorrect. Actual results may vary materially from the information provided in this release, and there is no representation by TAG Oil that the actual results realized in the future will be the same in whole or in part as those presented herein.

TAG Oil is involved in the exploration for and production of hydrocarbons, and its property holdings with the exception of the Cheal and Sidewinder project areas are in the grass roots or primary exploration stage. Exploration for hydrocarbons is a speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. There is no certainty that the expenditures incurred on TAG Oils exploration properties will result in discoveries of commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. TAG Oils future success in exploiting and increasing its current reserve base will depend on TAG Oils ability to develop its current properties and on its ability to discover and acquire properties or prospects that are producing. But, there is no assurance that TAG Oils future exploration and development efforts will result in the discovery or development of additional commercial accumulations of oil and natural gas.

Other factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements are also set forth in filings that TAG and its independent evaluator have made, including TAGs most recently filed reports in Canada under National Instrument 51-101, which can be found under TAGs SEDAR profile at http://www.sedar.com.

TAG undertakes no obligation, except as otherwise required by law, to update these forward-looking statements in the event that managements beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors change.
