-  <p>With scalable we mean:</p>
+  <p>The three major components of Mahout are an environment for building scalable algorithms, many new Scala + Spark (H2O in progress) algorithms, and Mahouts mature Hadoop MapReduce algorithms.</p>
+  <h5> <strong>11 Apr 2015 - Apache Mahout's next generation version 0.1.10 released</strong></h5>
+  <p><strong>Apache Mahout would like to introduce a new math</strong> <a href="http://mahout.apache.org/users/sparkbindings/home.html"><strong>environment we call Samsara</strong></a>; for its symbol of universal renewal. It reflects a fundamental rethinking of how scalable machine learning algorithms are built and customized. Mahout-Samsara is here to help people create their own math while providing some off-the-shelf algorithm implementations. At its base are general linear algebra and statistical operations along with the data structures to support them. It’s written in Scala with Mahout-specific extensions, and runs most fully on Spark.</p></p>
+<p><p><a href="http://mahout.apache.org/users/basics/algorithms.html"><strong>Mahout Algorithms</strong></a> include many new implementations built for speed on Mahout-Samsara. They run on Spark and some on H2o, which means as much as 10x speed increase. You’ll find robust matrix decomposition algorithms as well as a Naive Bayes classifier and collaborative filtering.</p></p>
+<p><p><strong>Mahout MapReduce</strong> includes the best of Hadoop MapReduce algorithms from Mahout v 0.9 but now with dependency updates and full Hadoop 2 support.</p></p>
+<p><p>With scalable we mean:</p>
   <p><strong>Scalable to large data sets</strong>. Our <a href="http://mahout.apache.org/users/basics/algorithms.html">core algorithms</a> for clustering, classfication and collaborative filtering are implemented on top of scalable, distributed systems. However, contributions that run on a single machine are welcome as well.</p>
   <p><strong>Scalable to support your business case</strong>. Mahout is distributed under a commercially friendly Apache Software
     license.</p>
