		<description><![CDATA[Last month, HighJump issued a press release that really caught my eye.  It wasn&#8217;t so much the headline (&#8220;HighJump Software Offers Promotion Including Complementary ROI Assessment for Its Labor Management System&#8221;), but a sentence buried deep in the press release:  &#8220;This special offer for HighJump Labor Advantage allows companies with constrained capital budgets to realize [...]]]></description>
