Local Tennessee Firm Donates Voice Command Software for Use by Teachers
December 31, 2010. Millington, TN. Unistar-Sparco Computers, Inc. announced
today that they have donated forty (40) Dragon Naturally Speaking Software

these programs at the Colonial Hearing, Speech, and Vision Center, the teachers
will be able to help special needs children to excel in the face of adversity.
The software's ability to integrate with multiple Microsoft applications like
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint makes using a computer possible for anyone with
visual impairment through voice commands. Typical functions such as "Delete
line," "Copy that," "Make that red," or "Open Microsoft Word," are valid
commands with the Dragon software. The software is easy to use and adaptive to
the user's voice and has an accuracy rating of 99% all while entering text at
speeds up to 160 words per minute which is more than three times faster than an
average person can type.

Tennessee Firm Steps Up by Reducing Energy Consumption and Increasing Renewable
Energy Generation
Small Business Leads the Way Hoping Big Business Will Soon Follow
January__, 2011 Millington TN. Unistar-Sparco Computers, Inc today announced
their participation in the U.S. GreenGov Supply Chain Partnership and Small
Business Pilot, a voluntary collaboration between the federal government and its
suppliers to create a greener, more efficient supply chain. The program was
announced at a supply chain summit in Chicago hosted by White House Council on
Environmental Quality Chair Nancy Sutley and the General Services
Administration's (GSA) Administrator Martha Johnson.
The GreenGov Supply Chain Partnership is a voluntary, GSA pilot program to
promote clean energy and cut waste and pollution in the federal supply chain
using greenhouse gas emissions as a measurement. "We agreed to voluntarily
measure and report our organization's greenhouse gas emissions" said Soo-Tsong
Lim, President of Unistar-Sparco. "We may be a small company, but we are making
big strides to do our part to reduce energy consumption. We installed a solar
panel array two years ago to help us reduce our energy footprint and we look
forward to continuing our commitment to clean energy."
The GreenGov Supply Chain Partnership and Small Business Pilot Program were
developed by GSA in response to President Obama's Executive Order 13514, which
called on GSA to lead the effort to make recommendations for measuring and
reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the federal supply chain. This partnership
and pilot are an outcome of those recommendations, and represent an important
collaboration with government and large and small businesses to move forward
together toward a clean energy economy.
"The federal government is the single largest energy consumer in the U.S.
economy and purchases more than $500 billion in goods and services every year,"
commented Chair Sutley. "It is our responsibility to lead by example to improve
efficiency, eliminate waste, and promote clean energy in our supply chain."
Administrator Johnson added, "As one of the largest purchasers of goods and
services in the world, GSA is in a unique position to collaborate with industry.
Businesses across the globe are already realizing cost-saving, waste-reducing
efficiencies and competitive advantages by decreasing greenhouse gas pollution.
GSA will leverage these private-sector best practices and the GreenGov Supply
Chain Partnership to move the federal government toward a cleaner, more
efficient supply chain." For more information about the program go to:
