Goodwill® and Monster.com Host Virtual Career Fair

May 7, 2012 * *

*Inaugural Online Event Connects Employers with Robust Candidate Pool*

*ROCKVILLE, MD* — Goodwill Industries International, the nation’s leading nonprofit provider of job placement and training programs for people with disabilities, those who lack education or job experience, and others who face challenges to finding employment, will launch its inaugural virtual career fair from May 7 – 10. Sponsored by Cintas and hosted by Monster.com, the virtual career fair will supplement Goodwill’s community-based career fairs, allowing employers around the United States and Canada to refine their recruiting strategies, expand their candidate pools, and reach individuals who may not be able to attend an in-person fair.

Goodwill’s 165 member agencies in the United States and Canada create a variety of opportunities that help people gain and maintain valuable employment. Goodwill also connects employers to its vast pool of talented, trained workers. Many local Goodwill agencies host career fairs in their communities — both intimate hiring events to introduce employers to new graduates of Goodwill training programs, and large public career fairs designed to create maximum access to successful employment outcomes for job seekers and employers alike. These career fairs are open to people of all backgrounds, such as veterans returning to civilian life, single mothers, seniors who need to learn new skills, and people with criminal backgrounds, among others.

“Goodwill has been connecting people to employment opportunities for 110 years,” said Jim Gibbons, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International. “The virtual career fair extends this mission into a new arena by offering employers a new way to connect with our pool of trained workers, and giving the people we serve new opportunities to become economically self-sufficient through the power of hard work.”

The virtual career fair will take place in conjunction with Goodwill Industries Week. Since 1951, Goodwill agencies across the United States and Canada have reserved the first full week of May to celebrate the organization’s mission of enhancing the dignity and quality of life of individuals, families and communities by eliminating challenges to finding work, as well as helping people access employment training opportunities and community-based services, such as financial education, transportation and youth mentoring. This year, from May 6 ­–12, Goodwill Industries Week will include a variety of events in communities across the United States and Canada, including more than 100 local career fairs at 36 Goodwill agencies and the inaugural virtual career fair.

* * * **Cars.com Introduces All-New Online Advertising Package Features for Franchise Dealers, Site Enhancements for New-Car Consumers*

CHICAGO – Cars.com, the premier online resource for buying and selling new and used vehicles, announced today that it has introduced BaseDrive™, an evolution of its online advertising package helping franchise dealers better promote their brand, reputation and new-car inventory on Cars.com. The introduction coincides with the first wave of planned site enhancements designed to better align the new-car shopping experience on Cars.com with the needs of today’s consumers. ****

** **

“New-car sales are back, and more shoppers than ever are taking to the internet to make the best choices, not only about what car to buy, but where to buy it,” said Mitch Golub, president, Cars.com. “BaseDrive introduces new-car features to our online advertising package that help franchise dealers promote the value of their dealership, not just their inventory, and it’s all designed to drive more new-car business with Cars.com’s audience of in-market car shoppers.” ****

** **

BaseDrive enhances franchise dealers’ existing online advertising package with increased brand exposure, automated merchandising features and comprehensive reporting specifically customized for a dealer’s new-car sales process. Ad packages for franchise dealers in most markets have been automatically upgraded to BaseDrive.****

** **

*Optimized Brand Exposure*

** **

“Dealers work hard to provide a great experience to their customers and differentiate themselves in their markets,” said David Gilmartin, director, New-Car Strategy. “BaseDrive brings all that hard work to life on Cars.com by integrating a dealership’s story and reputation throughout a consumer’s new-car search process.” ****

** **

On the new Dealer Profile Page, dealers showcase their unique value through a personalized narrative, a promotional tagline, dealership photos and videos, multiple contact options, sales and service hours and prominently featured Dealer Reviews. ****

** **

Shoppers can also group search results by dealer and sort by Dealer Reviews, making it easier to assess vehicle availability at the dealership level and helping them make a more confident and informed decision about where to buy. These pages now feature more dealer-level information, such as Dealer Review ratings and a promotional tagline, better showcasing a dealership’s brand. ****

** **

*Optimized New-Car Merchandising*

** **

Cars.com will now automatically include one color-matched stock photo on search result and vehicle details pages of every new-car listing when dealer-supplied photos are unavailable, offering a better consumer experience in addition to providing an automated, impactful vehicle merchandising solution for the dealer. ****

** **

“When it comes to inventory merchandising, our research has shown that photos are one of the top items shoppers want to see, yet it can be time-consuming for dealers to take photos of every new vehicle on their lot,” said Gilmartin. “BaseDrive makes including photos a turnkey part of the merchandising process.”****

** **

*Optimized Way of Gauging Exposure and Engagement*

** **

“We’ve seen dynamic changes in the way consumers shop for new vehicles online, and one of our top priorities in launching BaseDrive is to give dealers better insight into that activity than ever before,” said Gilmartin. “BaseDrive Market Intelligence Reports convey how a dealership’s performance with new-car shoppers stacks up against that of its competitors, as well as key market trends and predictive data that help dealers make better decisions for their business.” ****

** **

BaseDrive’s Market Intelligence Reports track a dealer’s share of total consumer exposure and engagement in their market, showing how often shoppers see information about their dealership, as well as the level of consumer interaction they capture on Cars.com in relation to the rest of their market. The reports also show how the dealership’s inventory turn rate on Cars.com stacks up against its competitors, helping them gauge the pace of their sales compared to the market average. ****

** **

Finally, Cars.com has partnered with Dataium, the largest aggregator of internet automotive shopping activity, to provide key new-car market trends in the BaseDrive Market Intelligence Report, including predicted consumer demand and trend forecasts for selected makes and models, all provided at the national and regional levels. The first report, based on data collected in May, will be available in June. ****

More information about BaseDrive’s new features, including an introductory video, can be found at dealers.cars.com/kickit.****

Hipcricket enables powerful multi-channel analytics, and clients can easily use powerful APIs to incorporate additional enterprise data from leading ERP systems.

“With AD SERVE, for the first time, marketers can manage their entire mobile campaigns-from creation to beyond the click or install -from a single platform,” said Hipcricket COO Eric Harber.

“Now, the AD LIFE platform is further pushing the mobile marketing and advertising envelope by measuring mobile customer engagement, not just click-throughs, downloads or other discrete activities.

This longitudinal view is critical for our clients to fully extend their customer relationship management from the back office onto their customers’ mobile devices.”

*Powerful targeting capabilities*: – AD SERVE offers mobile-specific options for precise targeting of rich media that go above-and-beyond traditional mechanisms.

Unique features have been implemented that allow clients to maintain all of the data that is collected from disparate sources associated with ad campaigns within a single interface.

This reduces significant numbers of man-hours that have traditionally been invested in day-to-day operations, empowering clients to focus on achieving core campaign objectives, as opposed to laboring over spreadsheet manipulations.

*Etsy News – No Longer Pay for Quantity Upfront*

Published on May 03, 2012 in Product Announcements,Etsy News Blog

Today we’re excited to announce a highly-requestedchange to fees for listings with a quantity greater than one. This change will roll out the week of May 21, 2012. Sellers will only be charged $0.20 USD to list or renew an item, regardless of quantity. Fees for additional quantities will only apply when an item sells. It works like an auto-renew feature — when your item sells and you still have quantity left, your listing automatically renews for $0.20 USD. If your listing sells out, the total fees are effectively the same. If your listing doesn’t sell out within four months, your fees will be lower because you won’t pay for unsold quantities.

Currently when sellers list their items on Etsy, they pay $0.20 USD per quantity up front when the listing is published. (For example: I have six handmade mugs. If I list with a quantity of six, then my listing costs $1.20 USD right away.) Many sellers instead choose to list a quantity of one to avoid fees for unsold items, and to reduce the cost of renewing. This can confuse shoppers (maybe they want to buy six as part of a wedding registry but only one is listed!), and sellers are stuck manually watching and renewing sold-out listings. With the new system, sellers can add as many items as they have in stock or are able to make, and shoppers can check out easily and add their desired quantity to the order. We hope this will be a time-saver for sellers: you’ll have to renew your items less often!

Our Fees Policy http://www.etsy.com/help/article/2144 is being updated to reflect these changes, *which go into effect the week of May 21, 2012*. When the new fee structure is live for your shop, we’ll notify you in the shop management area of the site. Be sure to check out our lovingly-illustrated FAQs for details http://www.etsy.com/help/article/2552 about how the new structure works!

The company has a diversified business model with revenue coming from member subscriptions, marketing solutions and hiring solutions. Headquartered in Silicon Valley, LinkedIn also has offices across the Americas, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures* To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS (collectively the “non-GAAP financial measures”). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The company believes that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making.

The company excludes the following items from one or more of its non-GAAP measures: * Stock-based compensation.* The company excludes stock-based compensation because it is non-cash in nature and because the company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance and liquidity. The company further believes this measure is useful to investors in that it allows for greater transparency to certain line items in its financial statements and facilitates comparisons to competitors’ operating results.

*Amortization of acquired intangible assets.* The company excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets because it is non-cash in nature and because the company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance and liquidity. In addition, excluding this item from various non-GAAP measures facilitates internal comparisons to historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ operating results. * Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. *Excluding the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments from the provision for income taxes assists investors in understanding the tax provision related to those adjustments and the effective tax rate related to ongoing operations.

*Assumed preferred stock conversion.* As a result of the company’s initial public offering, all outstanding shares of preferred stock were automatically converted into shares of Class B common stock. Consequently, non-GAAP diluted net income per share has been calculated assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock into shares of Class B common stock.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures” table in this press release. This accompanying table has more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. Additionally, the company has not reconciled adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance because it does not provide guidance for other income , net and provision (benefit) for income taxes, which are reconciling items between net income and adjusted EBITDA. As items that impact net income are out of the company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, the company is unable to provide such guidance. Accordingly, a reconciliation to net income is not available without unreasonable effort. * Safe Harbor Statement * “Safe Harbor” statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This press release and the accompanying conference call contain forward-looking statements about our products, including our planned investments in key strategic areas, certain non-financial metrics, such as member growth and engagement, and our expected financial metrics such as revenue, adjusted EBITDA, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation for the second quarter of 2012 and the full fiscal year 2012. The achievement of the matters covered by such forward-looking statements involves risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, the company’s results could differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements the company makes.

The risks and uncertainties referred to above include – but are not limited to – risks associated with: the company’s limited operating history in a new and unproven market; engagement of our members; the price volatility of our Class A common stock; general economic conditions; expectations regarding the return on our strategic investments; execution of our plans and strategies, including with respect to acquisitions of other companies; expectations regarding the company’s ability to timely and effectively scale and adapt existing technology and network infrastructure to ensure that its website is accessible at all times with short or no perceptible load times; security measures and the risk that the company’s website may be subject to attacks that degrade or deny the ability of members to access the company’s solutions; our ability to maintain our rate of revenue growth; our ability to accurately track our key metrics internally; members and customers curtailing or ceasing to use the company’s solutions; the company’s core value of putting members first, which may conflict with the short-term interests of the business; privacy issues; increasing competition; our ability to manage our growth and retain our employees; and the dual class structure of the company’s common stock.

Further information on these and other factors that could affect the company’s financial results is included in filings it makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed for the year ended December 31, 2011, and additional information will also be set forth in our Form 10-Q that will be filed for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, which should read in conjunction with these financial results. These documents are available on the SEC Filings section of the Investor Information section of the company’s website at http://investors.linkedin.com/. All information provided in this release and in the attachments is as of May 3, 2012, and LinkedIn undertakes no duty to update this information.

GateHouse Media Announces First Quarter 2012 Results

FAIRPORT, N.Y., May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –

*First Quarter Highlights*

- Digital revenue increased 33.1% versus the prior year and 30.9% taking into account a change in the Company’s reporting period. – As Adjusted EBITDA increased 27.6% versus the prior year to $13.2 million. – Total revenues for the first quarter were $120.0 million, up 0.2% from the prior year and down 1.7% after taking into account a change in the Company’s reporting period. – Operating costs and SG&A expense totaled $107.6 million in the first quarter, a decrease of $3.1 million or 2.8% from the prior year. Adjusting for one-time items and a change in the Company’s reporting period, Operating costs and SG&A expenses declined 4.4% from the prior year. – Levered Free Cash Flow per share was ($0.3) versus ($0.4) for the prior year. – Excess cash flow payment of $4.6 million was made on long-term debt in March.

GateHouse Media, Inc. (the “Company” or “GateHouse Media”) (OTC Pink Sheets: GHSE), a leading multi-media company providing news and information to local communities, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April 1, 2012. Total revenues were $120.0 million, an increase of 0.2%. On a same reporting period basis total revenues declined 1.7% compared to the prior year and As Adjusted EBITDA was $13.2 million, an increase of 27.6% compared to the prior year.

*Change in Reporting Period*

The Company moved to a consistent 52 week reporting cycle for all locations during the first quarter of 2011. As a result, the first quarter of 2012 had 5 more days compared to the first quarter of 2011 for approximately 40% of the business. The Company estimated the impact of this change for better comparability year over year in reporting same store results (“same reporting period basis”). The Company estimates that this change did not have a material impact on the comparability of As Adjusted EBITDA year over year.

Commenting on GateHouse Media’s results, Michael E. Reed, Chief Executive Officer of GateHouse Media, said, “Our first quarter was our third consecutive quarter of improving trends. We believe that these improving trends reflect the progress we have made under initiatives to transform GateHouse Media to a truly local multi-media company, as well as a slightly more favorable economic environment. We are encouraged by the fact that the improving trends are broad based and span several revenue categories. Our total revenue decline of 1.7% on a same reporting period basis was the best performance we have seen since early 2007. Our total digital revenue grew 30.9% in the first quarter, driven by 22.3% growth in page views, improved pricing and better digital sales productivity from our sales force. We also saw benefits from our pricing initiatives on circulation, leading to our total circulation revenue increase of 1.5%. Local print advertising trends continue to improve as well and were down 7.1% in the first quarter.

“While I am excited about our recent revenue performance, we remain focused on expense controls. We continue to identify and execute on permanent cost reductions, as evidenced by our 4.4% reduction in expenses on a same reporting period basis. The combination of improving revenue trends and expense reductions resulted in a 27.6% increase in As Adjusted EBITDA to $13.2 million, a very good start to the year given this is seasonally our lowest quarter.

“An important component of our strategic plan is to identify, develop and launch new businesses that leverage our core strengths from our GateHouse Ventures division. During the first quarter we invested about $800,000 in these new businesses, which we see as growth opportunities. We were pleased to see several of these new businesses come to market in the first quarter. We officially launched Propel Marketing, an online marketing company that provides digital solutions to small and medium sized businesses and Adhance Media, a private exchange for digital advertising with real time bidding designed to maximize digital revenue for GateHouse. We also made an investment in Find n Save® in the first quarter, a comprehensive newspaper industry online shopping platform. While the overall contributions of these new business initiatives are small today, we believe they can be significant contributors to our growth and profitability in the future.”

*First Quarter 2012 *

Total revenues were $120.0 million for the quarter, an increase of 0.2% compared to the prior year and a decline of 1.7% from the prior year on a same reporting period basis. The same reporting period results were driven by strong digital revenue growth of 30.9% offset by declines in print advertising. The improvement in digital revenue was driven primarily by a 25.5% increase in digital advertising, along with strong growth in our daily deal and digital subscription programs. Total advertising revenue declined 2.8% on a same reporting period basis as growth in digital advertising was more than offset by a 7.1% decline in local print advertising. Classified revenue increased slightly compared to the prior year resulting from strong legal revenue driven by increased foreclosure activity, a significant improvement over the negative trends experienced throughout 2011. Circulation revenue also increased slightly as the benefit of price increases more than offset volume declines.

Total operating and SG&A expenses in the quarter were $107.6 million, down 2.8% compared to the prior year and down 4.4% on a same reporting period basis. The expense declines were primarily from lower compensation.

Operating income for the quarter was $0.6 million, an increase of $4.2 million as compared to the prior year. As Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $13.2 million, an increase of $2.9 million or 27.6% from the prior year.

Levered Free Cash Flow for the quarter increased $0.5 million, or 21.4%, to ($1.8) million as compared to ($2.3) million for the prior year. Adjusting for the timing of interest payments due to the Company’s change in reporting period, Levered Free Cash Flow for the quarter increased $2.9 million.

One-time costs incurred and other non-cash expenses in the quarter were $1.8 million, and related primarily to reorganization efforts and initiatives introduced to realize permanent expense reductions.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures*

A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure. GateHouse Media defines and uses Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues, and Levered Free Cash Flow, non-GAAP financial measures, as set forth below. The Company strongly urges stockholders and other interested persons not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP measures, as presented in this press release, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

*Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow*

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and other non-recurring or non-cash items. The Company defines As Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA before other non-cash items such as non-cash compensation, non-recurring integration and reorganization costs and Adjusted EBITDA from non-wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company defines As Adjusted Revenues as total revenues plus revenues of discontinued operations less revenues from non-wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company defines Levered Free Cash Flow as As Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, cash taxes and interest expense, excluding non-wholly owned subsidiaries.

*Management’s Use of Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow*

Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to income from operations, net income (loss), cash flow from continuing operating activities or any other measure of performance or liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP. GateHouse Media’s management believes these non-GAAP measures, as defined above, are useful to investors for the following reasons:

- ­Evaluating performance and identifying trends in day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance on its day-to-day operations; – Providing assessments of controllable expenses that afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieving optimal financial performance; and – Indicators for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow provide GateHouse Media with measures of financial performance, independent of items that are beyond the control of management in the short-term, such as depreciation and amortization, taxation and interest expense associated with its capital structure. These metrics measure GateHouse Media’s financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure or expenses of the organization. Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted Revenues and Levered Free Cash Flow are some of the metrics used by senior management and the Board of Directors to review the financial performance of the business on a monthly basis. In addition, GateHouse Media’s management utilizes these metrics to evaluate the Company’s performance, along with other criteria, to determine the funds available for paying the quarterly dividend.

CoreLogic® Reports 69,000 Completed Foreclosures Nationally in March––Largest Improvements in Foreclosure Rate from a Year Ago were in Nevada and Arizona––

SANTA ANA, Calif., May 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — CoreLogic (NYSE: CLGX), a leading provider of information, analytics and business services, today released its National Foreclosure Report for March, which provides monthly data on completed foreclosures, foreclosure inventory and 90+ day delinquency rates. There were 69,000 completed foreclosures in March 2012 compared to 85,000 in March 2011 and 66,000* in February 2012. Through the first quarter of 2012, there were 198,000 completed foreclosures compared to 232,000 through the first quarter of 2011. Since the start of the financial crisis in September 2008, there have been approximately 3.5 million completed foreclosures.

Approximately 1.4 million homes, or 3.4 percent of all homes with a mortgage, were in the national foreclosure inventory as of March 2012 compared to 1.5 million, or 3.5 percent, in March 2011 and 1.4 million, or 3.4 percent, in February 2012. The number of loans in the foreclosure inventory decreased by nearly 100,000, or 6.0 percent, in March 2012 compared to March 2011.

“The overall delinquency level was unchanged in March, remaining at its lowest point since July 2009,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic. “Non-judicial foreclosure markets like Nevada, Arizona, and California are experiencing significant improvements in their shares of delinquent borrowers. Some judicial foreclosure states are also improving, like Florida, but not to the extent of non-judicial markets.”

The share of borrowers nationally that were more than 90 days late on their mortgage payment, including homes in foreclosure and real estate owned (REO) assets, fell to 7.0 percent in March 2012 from 7.5 percent in March 2011, and remained unchanged from 7.0 percent in February 2012.

Also in March, the inventory of REO assets held by servicers nationwide grew more slowly than the pace of REO sales, as measured by the distressed clearing ratio. The distressed clearing ratio is calculated by dividing the number of REO sales by the number of completed foreclosures. The higher the distressed clearing ratio, the faster the pace of REO sales relative to the pace of completed foreclosures. The distressed clearing ratio for March 2012 was 0.81, up from 0.76 in February 2012.

“Compared to a year ago, the number of completed foreclosures has slowed,” said Anand Nallathambi, chief executive officer of CoreLogic. “Since the foreclosure inventory is also coming down, this suggests that loan modifications, short sales, deeds-in-lieu are increasingly being used as an alternative to foreclosures to clear distressed assets in our communities. This is what was envisioned with the recent National Foreclosure Settlement, and can often be a better outcome for both borrowers and investors.”

Highlights as of March 2012

- The five states with the largest number of completed foreclosures for the 12 months ending in March 2012 were: California (150,000), Florida (92,000), Michigan (62,000), Arizona (58,000) and Texas (57,000). These five states account for 49.1 percent of all completed foreclosures nationally. – The percent of homeowners nationally who were more than 90 days late on their mortgage payments, including homes in foreclosure and REO, was 7.0 percent for March 2012 compared to 7.5 percent for March 2011, and 7.0 percent in February 2012. – The five states with the highest foreclosure rates were: Florida (12.1 percent), New Jersey (6.6 percent), Illinois (5.4 percent), Nevada (4.9 percent) and New York (4.9 percent). – The five states with the lowest foreclosure rates were: Wyoming (0.7 percent), Alaska (0.8 percent), North Dakota (0.8 percent), Nebraska (1.1 percent) and South Dakota (1.4 percent). – Of the top 100 markets, measured by Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) population, 35 are showing an increase in the year-over-year foreclosure rate in March 2012, two more than in February 2012 when 33 of the top CBSAs were showing an increase in the year-over-year foreclosure rate.

*Figure 3: CoreLogic 90+ Day Delinquency Rates*

*Methodology* The data in this report represents foreclosures and delinquencies reported through March 2012.

This report has state data separated into judicial vs. non-judicial foreclosure state categories. In judicial foreclosure states, lenders must provide evidence to the courts of delinquency in order to move a borrower into foreclosure, while in non-judicial foreclosure states lenders can issue notices of default directly to the borrower without court intervention. It’s important to distinguish this since judicial states as a rule have longer foreclosure timelines and thus affect foreclosure statistics as a result.

A completed foreclosure occurs when a property is auctioned and results in the purchase of the home at auction by either a third party, such as an investor, or by the lender. If the home is purchased by the lender, it is moved into the lender’s Real Estate Owned (REO) inventory. In “foreclosure by advertisement” states, a redemption period begins after the auction and runs for a statutory period, e.g., six months. During that period the borrower may regain the foreclosed home by paying all amounts due as calculated under the statute. For purposes of this Foreclosure Report, because so few homes are actually redeemed following an auction, we assume the foreclosure process ends in “foreclosure by advertisement” states at the completion of the auction.

The foreclosure inventory represents the number and ratio of homes that have been placed into the process of foreclosure by the mortgage servicer. Mortgage servicers start the foreclosure process when the mortgage reaches a specific level of serious delinquency as dictated by the investor for the mortgage loan. Serious delinquency is typically defined as 90, 120, or 150 days delinquent (sometimes more), in foreclosure or in REO. Once a foreclosure is “started,” and absent the borrower paying all amounts necessary to halt the foreclosure, the home remains in foreclosure until the completed foreclosure results in the sale to a third party at auction or the home enters the lender’s REO inventory. The foreclosure inventory is measured only against homes that have an outstanding mortgage. Homes with no mortgage liens can never be in foreclosure and are therefore excluded from the analysis. Approximately one-third of homes nationally are owned outright and do not have a mortgage. CoreLogic has approximately 85 percent coverage of U.S. foreclosure data.

The distressed clearing ratio is calculated by dividing the number of REO sales by completed foreclosures. It is a measure of whether the REO inventory is growing or shrinking. The higher the ratio, the faster the REO inventory is clearing.

*Two-Thirds of U.S. Companies Planning Significant Recruiting in 2012, Survey Says; * *HR Professionals Identify Areas for Improvement in Recruiting and Relocation, Opportunities for Differentiation* 0

CHICAGO, April 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Corporate recruiting is moving into high gear, with two-thirds of HR professionals reporting that they have “extensive” or “moderate” plans for hiring in 2012, according to the *2012 Allied Workforce Mobility Survey*.

Larger companies – with more than 10,000 employees – are more bullish, with 80 percent planning for “extensive” or “moderate” recruiting.

In addition, most HR professionals do not see significant obstacles to relocation in today’s economic environment. Only 6 percent believe that today’s workforce is *not* willing to relocate, and most believe it is “highly mobile” or “somewhat mobile.” Fifty-nine percent reported that the current economic context has had “no impact” on their ability to recruit and hire.

Sponsored by Allied Van Lines, the *2012 Allied Workforce Mobility Survey*captured the voice of 500 HR professionals on critical topics related to workforce mobility. The first set of results, released today, concern recruiting and relocation. Other results will follow on May 21 and June 11. All completed survey results will be available through www.alliedhriq.com.

Today’s survey results suggest a busy, challenging recruiting environment in 2012, with several areas of concern, including high unemployment and a soft real estate market.

And, not all companies are ready for this challenging environment. HR professionals identified weaknesses – or areas for improvement – in many recruiting and relocation programs:

- Many companies lack confidence in their recruiting programs. Fifty-two percent of HR professionals say their recruiting programs are only “somewhat successful.” – The overall rate of recruiting success is not as high as it could be. Even “highly successful” recruiting programs lose one in four choice candidates, and companies in the bottom quartile lose about one in two. – Recruiting incentives, including benefits packages, could be stronger at many companies. HR professionals have low confidence even in the incentives they rank the highest. Only 27 percent rate their healthcare plans a “5″ (on a scale of 1 to 5, with “5″ being strength and “1″ a weakness), and they rate all other incentives even lower. – Relocation packages do not address some key areas, like spousal employment support, which only 2 percent of companies cover in any form. – Companies are not using all the recruiting tools that they could. While “highly successful” recruiting programs make use of a wide range of resources, “somewhat successful” programs scarcely tap into internal recruiters, external recruiters, career fairs or events, and social media.

Taken as a whole, the survey suggests many opportunities for differentiation among companies heading into a competitive recruiting period.

Best-in-class companies are usually larger. They spend more, recruit and relocate more, and cast their nets more widely geographically.

Yet, best-in-class companies are also found among companies with revenues under $1 billion or even under $100 million. About one-third of companies in these categories are best in class in recruiting, according to HR professionals who rated their own programs.

Companies interested in differentiating themselves in recruiting and relocation may consider these findings:

- Recruits in need of relocation have diverse needs, yet most companies do not offer a range of benefits tailored to specific types of recruits (e.g., married with children versus single). Seventy-two percent of programs offer only four of 10 possible relocation benefits listed in the survey. – While 69 percent of HR professionals say that selling a home restricts relocation, only 16 percent of companies offer any form of reimbursement for old home losses. – While 72 percent of HR professionals say children’s plans/schools restrict relocation, only 39 percent of companies offer information on area schools. – Only 38 percent of HR professionals rate social media as a “good” or “excellent” source for recruiting, which suggests these resources are underutilized (or truly not useful).

*The New York Times Announces Strong Circulation Gains*

*Weekday Circulation up 73% over March 2011; Sunday up 50%*

*Sunday Home Delivery up by 1.7% over March 2011*

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–May. 1, 2012– For the six-month period ending March 31, 2012, The New York Times saw strong circulation growth according to the just released Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) report. Total average circulation, which includes total print and total digital, was 1,586,757 for Monday–Friday and 2,003,247 for Sunday.

The gains in total average circulation over the same period one year ago were 73% for Monday-Friday and 50% for Sunday. These gains can largely be attributed to the popularity of The Times’s digital subscription packages, which launched in the United States on March 28, 2011 and also to new ABC rules on reporting digital circulation.

For the ABC reporting period, total average digital circulation for Monday-Friday was 807,026 and for Sunday it was 737,408. This category of circulation includes all paid and verified digital subscription copies as well as paid subscriptions to replica editions and e-readers including Amazon’s Kindle and the Barnes & Noble NOOK.

The Times saw significant growth in non-replica paid and verified circulation, which is illustrative of the way in which Times subscribers access content across platforms. These averages include and reflect the daily usage of multiple digital platforms by subscribers.

Additionally, for the six-month period ending March 31, 2012, total average print circulation for The New York Times for Monday-Friday was 779,731 and total average print circulation for Sunday was 1,265,839. These figures represent modest declines; -4.5% for Monday-Friday and -1.1% on Sunday, when compared to the same period last year.

However, the inclusion of free all digital access with every print subscription to The Times continues to prove its value in acquisition and retention efforts as Sunday home delivery circulation continues to grow. Sunday home delivery grew by nearly 2% in this latest reporting period, the largest gain in more than five years. And, the group of core print subscribers (subscribers for 2 years or more) to The Times remains a robust 845,000.

Scott Heekin-Canedy, president and general manager, The New York Times said, “This latest ABC statement illustrates the great strength of the overall New York Times brand and our strong performance in the period is a tribute to the success of our digital subscription strategy. In addition, we believe that the new ABC rules have allowed us to offer a true reflection of the actual cross platform usage of our products by our highly engaged group of paid subscribers.”

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, April 26, 2012 – DoApp has released a completely redesigned interface for their Mobile Local News platform.

The new, scrolling “News Ticker” feature can be used for breaking or featured stories.

“Our main focus for the redesign was making the interface even more intuitive for the reader,” states Mobile Local News app designer, Jim Kozlowski. “We have taken the great features in the previous design and made them even better: more photos, ability to enlarge text and photos, swiping between articles, as well as many app performance upgrades so stories load quicker.”

Features from previous releases are also available, including: sharing articles by email, Facebook & Twitter, the ability for readers to submit content and photos, integrated local weather and traffic, push notifications for breaking news and weather, Adagogo mobile ad platform integration as well as app use metrics and statistics.

“The initial response to our new design has been tremendous,” says DoApp CEO, Wade Beavers. “News organizations that use Mobile Local News have reported significant gains in the number of articles read on their readers’ mobile devices as well as an uptick in the time spent using the app. We have also received reviews from our users who have noticed a great improvement in the quality of the apps.”
