      <title>Local eBusiness Services Firm Exceeds Growth Expectations</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;BUFFALO, New York, January 9, 2006&lt;/b&gt; - - Software upgrades in its exclusive Stet Net Admin platform and the resultant increased usability and productivity for its national clients allowed Buffalo, NY-based Rare Earth Interactive Design to increase its client base by a company record 30% in 2005 versus 2004, as it was announced today by Rare Earth Interactive Design&amp;rsquo;s President Craig C. Chapman. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
As a result of the firm&amp;rsquo;s unprecedented growth, the eBusiness services and consulting group added nine staffers in 2005 primarily in the internet technology and sales and marketing departments.&amp;nbsp; The increase in capacity was the direct result of the addition of new clients and increased engagements with some of Rare Earth Interactive&amp;rsquo;s current clients.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Software will get you in the door with many prospects but our successes in getting new deals and expanding our engagements with existing clients is a direct result of the extraordinary talents of our staff,&amp;rdquo; Mr. Chapman said. He continued, &amp;ldquo;The internet is a tool for increasing sales through e-commerce, or creating brand awareness through design and interactivity. However, its impact can be a waste of resources, unless you have experienced technologists and creative professionals who know how to harness the internet&amp;rsquo;s power and funnel it into the overall objectives of the client.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Some of the clients Rare Earth has recently welcomed include &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.taiyobirdair.com&quot;&gt;Taiyo Birdair&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.elixsure.com&quot;&gt;Elixsure&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kerasal.com&quot;&gt;Kerasal&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bnar.org&quot;&gt;Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors&lt;/a&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The internet company&amp;rsquo;s year in review announcement was distributed via the company&amp;rsquo;s website &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rareearthinteractive.com&quot;&gt;http://www.rareearthinteractive.com&lt;/a&gt;

      <title>New Additions, New Products and Services</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;
What a year! 2005 represented many important milestones in the resurgence of Rare Earth Interactive as a premier provider or solutions to the Small-to-Medium-Size Enterprise (SME). We added more customers, upgraded our servers to give customers more disk space, memory&amp;nbsp;and bandwidth, undertook major upgrades to our core SNAP software, as well as our StetNet Exchange Extranet applications,&amp;nbsp;and began development on the StetNet Active Management Suite.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;A bigger community of happy customers, a bigger community of happy employees&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;With more customers and more solutions to manage, we obviously needed more people to do the work of Rare Earth Interactive to support them. Indeed, many of you have had the pleasure of working with Greg Awarski (ext 708), our customer-friendly software engineer, as well as production and technical support specialist Christopher Keller (ext 709) and our new quality control manager Dee Fowler Chapman (ext 710).&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
October saw both Peter O&amp;rsquo;Connell (ext 711) join our sales team and 16-year-old wunderkind Raederle West (ext 713) come on board as&amp;nbsp;our latest&amp;nbsp;design intern.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;New Productivity Solutions and New Services&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;Since March, we&amp;rsquo;ve been making major upgrades to our core applications to better serve your eBusiness Management needs. Here&amp;rsquo;s a review of what we&amp;#39;ve been up to:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Upgrading &lt;i&gt;StetNet Admin Premium&lt;/i&gt; from 5.2, with its Internet Explorer, Windows-only Editor, to the cross-platform version 5.5, which works on Mac, Windows and Linux systems, in concert with a host of other new features. The formal announcement is coming shortly.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Upgrading &lt;i&gt;StetNet Exchange&lt;/i&gt; extranet application from version 2.0 to version 3.0, with the capability for nested folders, more flexible user management and superior messaging tools.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Development of the &lt;i&gt;StetNet Active Management Suite&lt;/i&gt; v1.0&amp;nbsp;is nearing completion. The solution platform allows&amp;nbsp;businesses to train, qualify and empower their employees to self-schedule their own working hours, as well as the ability to conduct comprehensive online surveys.&amp;nbsp;Together,&amp;nbsp;this applications suite promises to deliver the next&amp;nbsp;generation of&amp;nbsp;productivity enhancement tools to our customers - and in turn - their customers.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;An enhanced phone system, with dial-by-name directory, conference center and technical support queue, to ensure you&amp;#39;re never far away from answers to your questions.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;And coming in January, 2006: look for the announcement of long-awaited &lt;i&gt;Rare Earth Continuing Education Program.&lt;/i&gt; Through eye-opening online seminars and question-and-answer sessions covering subjects covering eBusiness Strategies, Search Engine Optimization and Human Resources Management, this program is designed to better enable all of our customers to use the pure power of their solutions, in ways they might not have ever considered before.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
If you have any questions about any of our past, present or future initiatives and how they can benefit your business, please call us. We&amp;#39;re ready and eager to help.
