ROYAL OAK, Mich., Oct. 1, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Center One, a provider of high availability hosting services announces an expansion of its data center floor capacity. "Customer demand is out-pacing the amount of space we have available today" says President/CEO Rex Smith. "Our expansion plans at our Michigan data center will take advantage of the same core infrastructure which has provided high availability services in a high density environment to our present customers."

Liberty Center One opened its doors in 2008 in an effort to provide enterprise-level colocation services to customers accustomed to a high availability infrastructure and tight security controls.

"We saw a position in the market for data centers that catered to enterprises that had purpose built, captive data rooms in the past," says Tim Mullahy, Managing Director.

Many corporate IT managers would like to take advantage of the affordable cost model provided by colocation facilities, but finding an appropriate site that provides the same level of security, resiliency and availability that would be found in a "captive" facility is not a simple task.

"Many commercial data centers were built at old telco sites or were in multi-tenant spaces that would not be attractive to major financial services, healthcare and manufacturing entities, says Mullahy. "We toured some sites without UPS battery back-up, some with only one carrier and others that were attached to high traffic businesses that could be considered security risks. We built Liberty with features that corporate entities and other organizations with high availability and stringent security requirements would use if they were building their own facilities."

Liberty Center One's new 4,000 square foot floor space will take advantage of the core features of the hosting facility including:

"We continue to invest in our critical infrastructure to support all of our customers," says Rex Smith, President/CEO. "Our affordable business structure allows for small and medium sized businesses to take advantage of our robust, high availability infrastructure. We tell customers that they don't have to have a top ten budget to have top ten data protection."

Liberty's success has been derived from a wide range of customers of all sizes. Besides worldwide manufacturing and financial services customers, the Liberty client roster also includes Michigan-based businesses as well as others from locations as diverse as Georgia, Texas, West Virginia, California and Nuernberg, Germany. Several customers from outside of the region use Liberty as their disaster recovery site due to Michigan's natural disaster-free history.

"The diversity of customer applications we support at Liberty is truly remarkable," says Pat Turner, Liberty's CTO. "We have customers running worldwide Learning Management Systems with streaming video, building management systems, ERP systems for multiple plants in remote locations, healthcare records management and local e-marketing. Each customer's unique needs are important and that's what makes us different. We custom fit our services to each customer's individuality. It's a challenge, but it's important to us for our customers to get what they want."

The projected availability of the new data room is December 1, 2012 and progress can be tracked through Liberty's blog: http://libertycenterone.com/blog.

While Ann Arbor city officials begin to consider a redesign of Liberty Plaza, experts point to the areas outside the parks boundaries as catalysts for the plaza's improvement.

Mayor John Hieftje told AnnArbor.com there are plans in the works to redesign the park, including potentially bringing the park up to street level instead of having a two-tiered sunken design. While the changes may bring some improvements, experts believe the areas right around the park play a bigger role in any future improvement.

Amy Kuras, the citys park planner, said the development around any urban space is what determines the success or failure of the space. Kuras said the immediate area around Liberty Plaza the Liberty Square building and the Kempf House is not a foot traffic generator. Whether the new underground Library Lot, and whatever development eventually is built atop it, changes the number of pedestrians at the corner remains to be seen.

Without establishments bringing in different groups of people, Liberty Plaza becomes a spot with a crowd of regulars who may not look kindly on outsiders, according to Kuras.

I would love to see it used more by all kinds of people, Kuras said. How we arrive at that, Im not sure what the answer is at this point. Its not just changing the configuration of the park.

Kuras compared Liberty Plaza to Sculpture Plaza, another concrete plaza at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Catherine Street. She said one of the reasons Sculpture Plaza has become a successful and popular area is because of the restaurants and shops that draw customers who utilize the space.

Kirk Westphal, an Ann Arbor documentarian who studied the city from a pedestrians point of view for a masters degree in urban planning, said Sculpture Plaza is the ideal situation thanks to the businesses surrounding it.

Liberty Plaza has what Westphal calls a key ingredient to success: Foot traffic along Liberty Street. However, there are not enough people actually going into the plaza.

Any urban space that lacks foot traffic through it can be problematic, and the key is getting a diversity of users, Westphal said. Its not about keeping unemployed people out, its about making sure there are enough people in total using the space.

When the park was completed in 1978, there was a restaurant in the 330 E. Liberty St. building next door, along with a book store in the bottom floor. Kuras said this brought more foot traffic into the plaza, but there were still problems from the start.

PHOENIX, Oct. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberty Gold Corp. (OTCBB: LBGO; "Liberty Gold" and/or "the Company") is pleased to report on International Tower Hill's (ITH) August 21, 2012 announcement of new, high-grade gold intercepts surrounding ITH's main deposit at its Livengood Gold Project in Alaska. ITH's Livengood Property immediately adjoins the western side of Liberty Gold's 4,620-acre McCord Creek Property. The Money Knob deposit on ITH's Livengood Property represents a resource estimate of 16.5 million ounces (Moz) Measured & Indicated at 0.22 grams per tonne cut-off (see ITH website for complete disclosure), making it one of the largest gold deposits discovered in 20 years.

The latest ITH drill results were from a non-exploration directed drill program involving 45 geotechnical and condemnation drill holes in the Livengood project area. According to ITH's August 21, 2012 news release, assay results from four of the holes drilled returned multi-gram gold intersections (intercepts were calculated using a 0.25 g/t gold cutoff and a maximum of 3 meters of internal waste). ITH stressed that, since the new gold intersections are located well outboard of the main deposit, the results indicated the significant exploration potential of the Livengood district scale gold system while highlighting the potential for further bulk tonnage and high-grade discoveries on the property. ITH Interim CEO, Jeff Pontius, commented in the news release: "It is clear that the Livengood gold system is a District scale gold discovery with significant future potential."

Liberty Gold Corp. Reports On International Tower Hill's New High-Grade Gold Intercepts On Adjoining Livengood Property

WASHINGTON & GATINEAU, QC, Canada--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Harris Corporation (HRS), an international communications and information technology company, is introducing its Liberty-Radio Control Equipment (RCE) a flexible gateway product that provides aviation authorities with the next generation of integrated radio control, network routing, and circuit adaptation solutions. The announcement was made during the 57th Annual Air Traffic Control Association Conference and Exposition being held October 1-3 at the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center in Washington, DC.

Capable of emulating any radio link and broadcasting it over a variety of transmission mediums, the Liberty-RCE will enable communications in harsh conditions and in isolated environments where digital service is typically scarce and reliance on legacy links and older analog technology is still required.

The Liberty-RCE is capable of totally reshaping a network and offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing fluctuations in network traffic and demands on operations to be easily managed. The system allows for the operation and compression of up to six radios per chassis into a single 64 kbps link. The Liberty-RCE supports Split Site Operations as well as Dual Control Site Operations whereby frequencies from two voice communication control system (VCCS) sites (local or remote) can simultaneously access the same radio resources.

A commercial-off-the-shelf device, the Liberty-RCE was specifically engineered to multiplex voice and data signals transmitted between air traffic control (ATC) facilities and deployed radios over satellite, traditional telecommunications links, or newer topologies like Internet Protocol (IP). The Liberty-RCE will facilitate the transmission of data services including digital voice, legacy analog voice, SatCom, datalink, ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B, and is interoperable with any brand of VCCS or ATC radio.

The Liberty-RCEs compact 3U chassis offers a sophisticated, fully redundant architecture that ensures system reliability and offers exceptionally high availability to meet any critical communications requirement. The system is also configured with redundant power supplies that can operate in AC or a combination of AC/DC.

Harris Liberty-RCE provides authorities with an opportunity to take advantage of their existing infrastructure by extending investments made and allowing them to ease into new technologies at their own pace and as network standards evolve, said John O'Sullivan, vice president, Mission Critical Networks, Harris Government Communications Systems. Whether deployed in a network operations center or in a remote location, the Liberty-RCE provides aviation authorities with a cost-effective, scalable and highly reliable communications solution.

Recently, the Liberty-RCE was selected by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as an interim solution after they encountered technical issues operating legacy RCE while deploying a remote air/ground communications facility on the oil platform Independence Hub in the Gulf of Mexico.

It was a short playoff run for the Liberty.

Tina Charles had 25 points and 14 rebounds and Kara Lawson scored 15 points all on 3s, including two late in the fourth quarter as the Connecticut Sun closed with a 14-0 run to beat the Liberty 75-62 on Saturday night at the Prudential Center to advance to the Eastern Conference finals.

I had some looks in the second half and I was missing them. I dont usually miss those, Lawson said. I kept telling them on the bench theres one coming. I didnt know there were two coming.

Cappie Pondexter scored 20 points to lead the Liberty.

They are a great team and played well all year, Pondexter said. Tina, the MVP of the league, played outstanding. Asjha made key buckets in the third quarter that gave them a run.

Lawson hit a 3 with 3:58 left start the Suns game-ending run. She was fouled and converted the free throw for the four-point play that put the Sun ahead for good, 65-62.

Plenette Pierson had just rallied the Liberty from a five-point deficit, scoring with 4:20 left to put the Liberty ahead 62-61.

After Jones hit a jumper with just under three minutes remaining to push Connecticuts advantage to six, Lawson made another 3 to make it 70-62.

Asjha Jones scored 18 points to help the Sun complete the two-game sweep.

When it was time to step up all of the best players stepped up tonight, Connecticut coach Mike Thibault said. Our three All-Star players stepped up. It was terrific, but we had great performances from a lot of people. It was as ugly start that you can get that nobody would like to watch, but one of the best things about this team is we hung in there on the road.

Liberty eliminated from playoffs

Indians' balance another reason for 8-0-0 start

Liberty goalkeeper Julian Spina makes a save during their game against Tuxedo on Thursday.CHET GORDON/Times Herald-Record

By WILLIAM MONTGOMERY

Published: 2:00 AM - 09/30/12

LIBERTY Through the first eight games of the season, the Liberty boys' soccer team isn't lacking for offensive firepower.

Freshman striker Gustavo Romero (14 goals, three assists) and senior midfielder Pedro Garcia (nine goals, 13 assists) are tied for first place atop the Section 9 scoring list with 31 points apiece.

Liberty improved to 8-0-0 with a 3-2 overtime victory Thursday at Tuxedo, but the reason for the Indians' success doesn't lie in the pursuit of scoring records. In fact, head coach Debbie Simpson has tried to instill the opposite message in her players: it doesn't matter who scores.

"We don't care who's leading the team in goals or assists," she said. "We're just working the ball down the field. Their goal is to win games, not to see who has the most goals."

"She's right. It really doesn't matter," said senior defender Christopher Symanski. "I'm pretty sure almost everyone on the team has scored a goal, even the goalie."

Of the 20 players on the roster, 17 have recorded at least one goal or one assist, including starting goalkeeper Julian Spina, who has two goals to his credit. Since Liberty has outscored opponents by a 49-7 margin so far, Spina has gotten some time in the field as reserve goalkeeper Ignacio Feijo gains experience in net.

UNCASVILLE

A double-digit lead had slowly whittled away and the Connecticut Sun, finding themselves tied with the New York Liberty late in the third quarter, used much of their roster to finally find some lasting separation Thursday night in their WNBA playoff opener.

Winning a championship isn't about being top-heavy. It's about having depth. And the Sun showed how many options they have while regrouping and cruising to a relatively easy 65-60 victory before 5,520 at Mohegan Sun Arena.

"We had a good run," coach Mike Thibault said of a 12-point burst to break a 45-all tie. "We were terrible in the third quarter. We missed layups. We missed jump shots. We gave them second shots. We made three or four stops and we had an advantage again. I'm happy with the effort but we need to play better."

Tan White created a turnover and fed Kara Lawson for a basket that gave the Sun a 47-45 lead, and later made another steal for an uncontested basket. The reserve guard gave a stale offense needed boosts. In between, there were key baskets by the ailing Asjha Jones, the veteran forward still recuperating from an Achilles injury, and Kara Lawson, the veteran guard.

"I'm getting stronger every day," Jones said.

Tina Charles, named the WNBA MVP in a pre-game press conference, led the Sun with 17 points, but the Sun didn't have to lean on her for every key play. In fact, she was on the bench for the 12-0 run. Jones, who had played just 17 combined minutes in her first two games back from injury, had 10 points and nine rebounds in 29 minutes.

Sitting next to Jones in a post-game press conference, Thibault said, "We've got a warrior here."

Allison Hightower had nine points, Lawson eight and Montgomery seven for the Sun, who led 27-13 in the first quarter but allowed the Liberty, now winless in four tries at Mohegan, to hang around.

Game 2 of the best-of-three semifinal series is Saturday in Newark, N.J. Game 3, if necessary, would be back at Mohegan Monday night. The Sun have not lost back-to-back games all season and have won four of five against the Liberty.

With the help of its defense and special teams, Liberty Hill turned a boxing match into a track meet on Friday night.

Will Fromme rushed for 139 yards and two touchdowns and Liberty Hill blew open a close game in the fourth quarter of a 46-24 win over Wimberley.

Fridays game featured two teams that have won four state championships over the past seven seasons. Wimberley won the Class 3A, Division I championship in 2005 and the Class 3A, Division II title in 2011 while Liberty Hill won back-to-back championships in 2006 and 2007.

Thats the state championship last year, Liberty Hill senior Kyle Marshall said. We got them in the bag. That gives us a lot of confidence.

Liberty Hill (4-1) had scored at least 60 points in two of its last three games but it was its defense that led the way in the first half on Friday.

A 22-yard field goal from Albertano Avila gave Wimberley a 3-0 lead in the second quarter and the Texans were poised to take a double-digit lead on their next drive.

But Marshall stripped Wimberley quarterback Colton Cerday inside the Liberty Hill 5 and the defensive back returned the football to the Texan 20. Four plays later, Fromme gave Liberty Hill a 6-3 lead with a nine-yard touchdown run.

Wimberley would get close to the Liberty Hill endzone again but the Texans final drive of the first half ended with a missed field goal. The Texans reached the Liberty Hill 10 on three of their drives in the first half but the Panthers still went into halftime with a three-point lead.

It brought the team a lot of energy, Marshall said of his forced fumble. That was a big game-changer.

Both team scored a touchdown in the third quarter but Liberty Hill grabbed a 19-10 lead on Jesse Perezs 16-yard touchdown run on the first play of the final quarter.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. (AP) -- Tina Charles collected her first WNBA MVP award, then showed why she deserved the honor.

Charles had 17 points and four blocks to power the Connecticut Sun to a 65-60 victory over the New York Liberty in their playoff opener on Thursday night.

''The day is going great,'' the third-year center said. ''I got a (personal) achievement, and we got the first playoff win. Now we have to build on that.''

Game 2 of the best-of-three Eastern Conference semifinal series is at the Prudential Center in Newark on Saturday at 7 p.m.

It was the Sun's first playoff win since they beat the Liberty 73-70 on Sept. 20, 2008.

''I'm happy with the win,'' Connecticut coach Mike Thibault said. ''I'm happy with the effort. We need to play a lot better.''

Asjha Jones had 10 points, nine rebounds and four assists for Connecticut (26-9), which is the top seed in the Eastern Conference. Kara Lawson added eight points, six rebounds and five assists.

Cappie Pondexter had 14 points, six assists and four steals for the Liberty (15-20). Plenette Pierson finished with 13 points and nine rebounds.

The Sun and Liberty were tied at 45 with over a minute left in the third quarter when Connecticut pulled away with a 12-0 run. It held New York scoreless for a 6 1/2-minute stretch that began late in the third quarter and extended into the fourth.

Renee Montgomery made two free throws early in the fourth quarter, then fed Mistie Mims for a layup. Jones continued Connecticut's run with a pull-up jumper.
