Muhammad (PBUH) The Greatest – Lecture in New York – Sheikh Ahmed Deedat This lecture was delivered at Al-Khoi Center in New York, USA, on December 1993Sheikh Ahmed Deedat: In 1986, the King Faisal Foundation awarded the King Faisal International Prize for SERVICE TO ISLAM, to a South African who is more or better known than many dignitaries in their own countries. This was the first time that this prestigious award has been awarded to a South African. The recipient of this award was a man totally dedicated to his faith and its propagation and who was not afraid to challenge any one to a debate to settle once and for all the matter, who has the good news right? He was none other than Sheikh Ahmed Deedat, reverently known and called UNCLE by those who hold him in high esteem and admiration. The award came after a lifetime of struggle to propagate Islam and to defend Islam against the onslaught of the missionaries. Finally, he was given recognition by the international Muslim community that he deserved and focused more sharply the attention of the Muslim world on the most important aspect of his work, the challenge to propagate Islam.

Extra Space Storage Selects inContact By UCN
Salt Lake City, UT — September 29, 2008
UCN Inc. (NASDAQ: UCNN), the leader in on demand contact center software for intelligent contact routing and agent improvement, announces a signed a one-year, renewable agreement with Extra Space Storage Inc. (NYSE: EXR), the second largest self storage company in the United States.
Extra Space Storage has chosen inContact? to provide a more standard sales approach and improve CRM efficiency for management of 673 self-storage properties it owns or operates in 33 states and the District of Columbia. The company’s properties comprise more than 461,000 units and 49 million square feet rented by more than 300,000 individual tenants.
“Our outsourced call center was handling overflow calls to our properties,” said Bill Hoban, CIO for Extra Space Storage, “but with the solutions from UCN, we can now train and equip agents in-house to manage all of our inbound calls and increase our sales growth. We also wanted a software as a service solution rather than an on-premise system so we would not have to worry about hardware upgrades or additional overhead. With inContact, we now have more efficient call routing, a single IVR with better tracking capabilities, and more long-term flexibility as we continue to grow through expansion and acquisition.”
Extra Space Storage also needed a fully integrated solution to help train agents and increase reporting and staffing efficiency. “We concluded UCN provides the best solution for delivering training to agents during short periods of downtime and helping us to optimize the number of agents on the phones in the first place. We also expect to lower our per-minute cost usage with UCN’s carrier rates,” added Hoban. “We expect this technology to deliver outstanding results for Extra Space Storage.”
Said Paul Jarman, UCN CEO, “Extra Space Storage is another example of a company benefitting from the tight integration between our powerful carrier network and the inContact technology platform. Coupled with the feature-rich ACD, components like eLearning help train agents to deliver an exceptional customer experience. The workforce management component allows Extra Space Storage to create optimal staffing schedules that accommodate fluctuations in call volumes.”

LadatelUSA.Com Introduces New Collect Calling Service Customized for Hispanic & Mexico Consumers 001-800-LADATEL (001-800-523-2835)
Los Angeles, CA — April 15, 2005
LadatelUSA.Com, a leading provider of international telecommunications services to Spanish-speaking consumers, today announced the completion of a new service customized for the fast growing Hispanic population, the largest ethnic marketing group according to U.S. Census Bureau statistics.
The new service includes an enhanced “LadatelUSA,” a toll-free access service that lets callers in Mexico place collect calls to customers in the U.S., Canada or Mexico using an automated attendant. This innovative service is only 25c per minute (2.5 Pesos MXN), an unheard of innovation in the highly competitive traditional collect call services, and now works from any phone in Mexico, including pay phones, without the need of a prepaid card.
According to Jorge Delgado, a spokesman of LadatelUSA.Com, a strong focus on the Hispanic market clearly differentiates our company from the competition. “Unlike other providers that try to be all things to all people, we want to establish LadatelUSA.Com as the preeminent phone company for Spanish-speaking consumers by supporting their special calling needs and preferences,” says Delgado. “We feel that our unheard of low-cost services and in-language support further distinguishes us in this burgeoning market.”
According to a recently published report prepared by Insight Research Corp., Hispanics will spend more than $ 65 billion on local, long distance and related telecom services this year (see: http://www.insight-corp.com/reports/ethnic2.asp) (http://www.insight-corp.com/reports/hispanic04.asp). The report also reveals that Hispanics are heavy users of local, long distance and international calling programs in addition to spending more than the general market on value-added features. These trends are reinforced by LadatelUSA.Com’s regular customer surveys, demonstrating that more than 90 percent make frequent calls to Mexico, more than 20 percent receive collect calls from Mexico and more than 70 percent use prepaid cards to lower their monthly telecom expenditures.
All LadatelUSA.Com service recordings are provided in Spanish, which ensures that its customers, the majority of whom speak Spanish at home, fully understand system prompts and messages. In addition, LadatelUSA.Com’s customer service efforts are built around a team of more than 150 bilingual professionals with offices in Los Angeles California, Longview Texas and Monterrey Mexico. Outbound call centers in Mexico are also staffed with bilingual professionals who appreciate the cultural nuances of Hispanics from different countries of origin.
For those of Hispanic origin in the USA, Canada, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Bahamas, Bermuda, the U.S.V.I. or the Cayman Islands, a similar toll free service number is available by simply dialing 1-866-238-2929. The same rates and service applies.
About LadatelUSA.Com
Los Angeles-based LadatelUSA.Com is a competitive carrier with a comprehensive set of local, long distance, international and enhanced calling services for more than 100,000 local and more than 300,000 long-distance Spanish-speaking customers nationwide. With a strong focus on the Hispanic marketplace, the company serves many of the top Hispanic markets including Los Angeles, New York, Miami, San Francisco, Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, McAllen (Texas), Los Angeles, and San Diego. LadatelUSA.Com employs more than 150 bilingual professionals and specializes in delivering competitive telecommunications services to a growing base of residential and small business customers.
