Here are highlights from Monday's Analyst Blog:
Technology Stock Roundup
Intel (Nasdaq:INTC-Free Report) kicked off the earnings season last week, but there were plenty other things going on…
Will More Heads Roll at Yahoo?
Yahoo (Nasdaq:YHOO-Free Report) shares took a tumble last week as CEO Marissa Mayer fired two executives in rapid succession. The first was Chief Operating Officer Henrique de Castro who had come from Google to serve the company for around 14 months. Mayer was apparently dissatisfied with his inability to bring targeted growth to Yahoo despite her efforts to boost the people and products side of the business.
Firing de Castro was an expensive decision (he leaves with $60 million), so one can only hope that Mayer has a definite game plan. A replacement has not been named yet.
The second person to leave Yahoo was Editor-in-Chief Jai Singh, who had joined the company from the Huffington Post in 2011. Details of this dismissal were unavailable. Mayer seems to be shaking things up at Yahoo all over again, and not a minute too soon. Following Alibaba's IPO and Yahoo's subsequent gains there will be very little to hold up share prices if growth in the core business does not return.
Yahoo has been publishing positive trends in its quarterly results that seemed to indicate that the company was moving in the right direction. But the firings seem to indicate that growth is either not where it was targeted, or that the company is now taking a different road. Recent hires indicate that the different road is a possibility.
Google Goes from Robotics to Home Automation
Google's (Nasdaq:GOOG-Free Report) recent acquisitions have been unusual. Last year, it acquired eight robotics companies, including Boston Dynamics, which is particularly good at making humanoid robots. Last week, the company announced another strange purchase, this time a company called Nest, a very successful maker of intelligent thermostats and smoke alarms.
While the two may not be related, one can't help but wonder if they are. The robots can of course be used for industrial automation and goods delivery as well. But somebody did suggest the role of domestic help to take care of routine household chores especially for the aged and this makes sense. Whatever be the case, Google's entry into the home now appears cemented with this acquisition.
Privacy watchdogs are concerned because Google will now gain access to energy consumption data in the household or other data from devices that may be developed in the future using Nest technology. But it's hard to stop Google.
Intel Results Were a Big Disappointment
Intel's fourth-quarter results and first-quarter guidance were below expectations. The company's mobile plans are heading in the right direction, albeit a little behind schedule. Still, considering its manufacturing advantage and ability to churn out volumes, Intel should see rapid adoption once it catches up on the design side.
As far as its core computing market is concerned, market research from both Gartner and IDC indicate that there are chances of stabilization or moderate growth this year. Intel remains a strong player on the server side, especially the emerging cloud computing markets. So the first half of the year is likely to be slow as the company gets ready to launch new products, with the second half picking up somewhat as it delivers on its promise of 40 million tablet units this year.
More Proof Teens Don't Like Facebook
iStrategyLabs has published some research that indicates a 25% decline in teen usage of Facebook (Nasdaq:FB-Free Report) over the past three years. The period indicates a disturbing trend, particularly since most of the defections appear to be in the age groups 13-17 and 18-24. The research indicates that Facebook seems to be out of favor with high school and college students, while gaining significantly in every other age group.
An earlier report by another market researcher indicated that Instagram, which Facebook acquired not such a long time back continues to see steady increases in teen usage. So the overall impact may not be all negative for Facebook as a company.
Other stories you may have missed-
Apple/Samsung Lead in the U.S.: The NPD Group reported in a recent report that the fourth quarter of 2013 saw Apple (Nasdaq:AAPL-Free Report) and Samsung leading the U.S. smartphone market with 42% and 26% market share, respectively.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

Macworld UK Polls iPod users on the iPod battery
"And this week's Macworld.co.uk poll would suggest that the problem has, in the words of one of our readers, 'been wildly overstated and time will show what a trivial issue this really is.'
Of the 1,047 readers polled 70 per cent have not experienced any reduction of battery life, and of these nearly half (49 per cent) admitted 'I accept it will lose charge over time.'
Although 30 per cent of respondents have experienced decreased battery life just 14 per cent of these people state that they are 'unhappy' about the situation. The remaining 16 per cent have already accepted that their battery will not live on indefinitely.
However, 21 per cent of the iPod owners who have not yet experienced reduced battery life say that if it does happen they 'won't be happy'."

This post is sponsored by the VMware Online Forum 2013.
This part three of our VMware series will build on the second article that introduces Rackforce, one the Cloud providers implementing VMware technologies.
Enterprise SaaS Enablement
With this platform in place we can look in more detail at how organizations might approach the apps strategy that they run in these environments, under a headline banner of 'Enterprise SaaS Enablement', referring to transforming traditional software apps to run in a Software-as-a-Service mode.
Typically this is when it is for a commercial venture, to literally sell the software as a service, but increasingly it will also become a new practice within enterprise architecture, a means of improving how corporate IT delivers apps to users.
This is because the enterprise adoption of Cloud computing can mean both outsourcing to third party suppliers like Amazon, but also via their Private Cloud strategy internal adoption of the architectures of Cloud computing as well.
This means SaaS and PaaS, as well as the infrastructure/virtualization aspects of IaaS that are common to most Private Cloud scenarios. These layers are less common, where they impact more upon how software programmers work through new shared service architectures at the app layer.
From virtual appliances through full SaaS-enablement toolsets there are a range of ways enterprises can improve their software practices, with the core idea being benefiting from the best practices SaaS vendors have developed through running very large-scale, high availability web applications.
VMware has a comprehensive PaaS strategy built on their Cloud Foundry platform, and culminating in the launch of a dedicated joint venture with EMC called Pivotal. (learn more at the VMware Online Forum 2013.)
This two-pronged approach is key to unlocking the full transformational power of Cloud Computing, where the organization leverages both i) scale: using Cloud providers like Amazon to tap into a new low-cost capability for IaaS, and also ii) utilizing principles like SaaS enablement to re-architect applications to better make use of this resource.
Cloud Security and service catalogue standardization
One simple way to adopt this powerful business improvement is via the ongoing development of the enterprise service catalogue, introduced in the previous articles.
Not only does this provide for the core IT automations that are one of the benefits of Cloud, but this automated deployment is achieved through templates of repeatable IT configurations. Building up this inventory can be driven by a process of setting enterprise-wide standards for Private Cloud SaaS. Which authentication modules to use, and so on.
This kind of standardization effort can better consolidate and manage the IT estate, and also can manage the use of third-party vendors as part of this process, so that these standards can address key areas like Cloud Security.
VMware has an extensive partner portfolio who add value to the core suite – For example Canadian supplier AFORE offers a range of tools for Cloud Security Management, specifically intended to address securing sensitive cloud data in a multi-tenant environment when customers share application and server infrastructure, and how can security deployment be simplified so applications, virtualized workloads and hardware don't need to be modified – often this is onerous if not impossible in cloud environments.
AFORE's CloudLink® Secure VSA encrypts mission-critical data in motion and at rest across public, private and hybrid clouds by providing a secure software-defined storage layer between virtual machines and cloud storage infrastructure.
Agentless, storage infrastructure agnostic security solution – no need to modify applications or workloads
Full control by enterprises over security policy and key management of encrypted data in the cloud
Enable multi-tenant security by creating per tenant virtual storage and encrypted with tenant controlled encryption keys.
Unsurpassed deployment flexibility including multi-tenant virtualized private, hybrid and public cloud environments and the ability to span heterogeneous storage servers with one CloudLink management console
Easy adaptability for ANY IaaS clouds (VMware, CA, Amazon, Microsoft, OpenStack, CloudStack, etc) and support self-service and elastic nature of these cloud services.
AFORE's CypherX secures sensitive data in hosted VDI and application stacks from cyber attackers, malicious insiders and cloud administrators. It seamlessly and efficiently places apps in secure virtual containers, encrypting and managing access to all data.
App Lockdown creates a secure virtual container for applications, protecting network, storage and inter-process communications with application-level granularity
CypherZones extend data security between groups of protected applications, allowing a complete application stack or workgroup environment to be protected.
Centralized control of security policy and encryption key management across many virtual machines
Complete end-user transparency
Traceability via tamper-proof audit logs that detail who/what accessed protected data, when and from where
Conclusion – Securely enabling Enterprise Agility
The key to any strategy intended to unlock better 'enterprise agility' is to empower employees and partners more and more.
A twin strategy of PaaS standardization and improved Cloud Security will enable IT development teams to work faster and do so by leveraging a wider range of productivity boosting Cloud services, all in a manner compliant with the organizations information security policies.

Big Data engines are powering a lot of service businesses right now. Data is collected from users from wearable technologies, web behaviors, purchase behavior as well as several arbitrary data points we'd never think of. The demand for faster and bigger engines to crunch and serve up the data to services is growing exponentially. You see a LOT of correlation between "Cloud" and "Big Data" but on Big Data and "Hybrid," where hybrid hosting is the sanest approach to the Big Data Infrastructure pro...

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Corporate Visions, Inc., the leading sales and marketing messaging company, today announced the results of its fourth quarter industry survey on visual storytelling, which was taken by more than 300 business-to-business (B2B) salespeople and marketers around the globe. The findings reveal a lack of visual storytelling techniques among marketing and sales teams, and specifically, that only 13 percent of salespeople use an interactive writing surface such as a whiteboard to support their customer conversations.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120402/NE80402LOGO )
To determine what role whiteboard selling techniques play in marketing and sales teams who work in complex B2B selling environments, Corporate Visions presented questions about the use of whiteboards, how they are created, by whom and why they are used. Notable findings from the Q4 survey include:
- Whiteboards are barely used – Respondents noted they use whiteboarding just 13 percent of the time to tell a visual story as part of sales conversations. The other tools mentioned most often were PowerPoint (33 percent), phone (26 percent) and in-person conversations (27 percent), which employ little to no visual components. This means salespeople are losing out on the opportunity to present ideas in a more engaging way, and to differentiate their messages, conversations and presentations to customers and prospects.
- Whiteboarding is not an on-purpose effort – Of those who actually report using whiteboards, 51 percent say they create them ad-hoc or borrow them from their peers. Only 24 percent are pre-built and approved as part of a strategic marketing and sales support program. For whiteboarding to be effective, marketing needs to develop the messages and tools alongside the sales team to make sure everyone is delivering a consistent, high-quality message. By pre-building whiteboards, salespeople are given the ability to deliver a simple, repeatable story with confidence and create a differentiated experience in the buying cycle.
- Whiteboards, when used effectively, can be leveraged in various ways – Respondents who use whiteboards specified they are essential to the buying cycle in a number of different ways, including:
- 25 percent – presenting/differentiating their solution from the competition
- 17 percent – illustrating the business impact of their solution
- 8 percent – demand generation
- 6 percent – explaining the implementation process
By leveraging the power of visual storytelling, salespeople can help illustrate their ideas in a simple, concrete way that will help them at various key moments in the sales process.
In fact, recent research by Aberdeen Group found that 53 percent of best-in-class companies identified creating more meaningful conversations as a top priority for increasing and sustaining revenue in an uncertain economy. Furthermore, the firm found conducting an interactive whiteboard conversation (as opposed to a static presentation) leads to a 50 percent higher lead conversion rate, 29 percent shorter time-to-productivity and 15 percent average shorter sales cycle – helping to combat the meaningful conversation problem among businesses.
"It's clear from the results of this survey that visual storytelling techniques like whiteboarding are alarmingly underutilized by both marketing and sales teams," said Tim Riesterer, chief strategy and marketing officer, Corporate Visions. "87 percent of today's companies are using static techniques, rather than having intimate and visually interactive conversations, which is what whiteboarding allows companies to do. Marketing and sales teams need to work together to create pre-built whiteboards that are going to differentiate themselves in the sales cycle, which in turn, will help them close more deals."

It's not the most enjoyable animated film for an adult but then I don't expect to be the target audience.My 2 year old is Cars and Cars2 crazy. If I'm honest this was a purchase to provide my wife and I with a little variety from the Cars franchise.
In short, it's worth a viewing and a very good film for a little boy. It maintains enough interest to keep my boy amused for most of the film. (and gives me and Mum a little peace for a while).
When I first watched it, I thought it was an attempt to copy Disney's Cars, but I didn't think it was as good.
However my 2.5 year old son is mad about this film. He loves all the characters, the flying, and the songs.
After watching it with him a few times, I love it too!
My 6 year old daughter loves it too! 5 stars from us!
suitable for all ages old and young,
Fortunately it bears watching more than once because my 20 month old grandson wants to see it about once every 3 or 4 days. Plenty of smiles and clever bits you miss the first time round.

Many people (not limited to the thread above) don't understand how research works. For someone to make an informed decision they should have more information than the people saying, 'well, duhhh.'
The end game is unknown at this point. Maybe they make changes to tackling techniques, equipment, or rules that result in very little risk. Maybe none of that shit works and we find another game to play.
If I knew there was a risk of brain damage, I would not have played. As it was, I went though 3 knee surgeries and have early arthritis. I knew that was a risk though.

Thanks Thomas! The magnetic edition definitely looks more attractive:
Do you like the light quality? The size of the ring? It's much bigger that other rind adapters...
Do you have any images taken with roundflash to share?

John Banks has thrown New Zealand into uncharted territory by clinging on to his seat in Parliament after being found guilty of filing a false electoral return.
OPINION: For the first time in living memory, the Government intends to rely on the vote of an MP found guilty of an offence serious enough under the law to cost him his seat in Parliament.
Prime Minister John Key and his Government could pretend all they liked that it was business as usual yesterday after the High Court delivered its verdict. It is anything but.
Banks would have been gone from Parliament yesterday if Justice Edwin Wylie had entered a conviction when he delivered his guilty verdict in the High Court. But Wylie delayed entering a conviction until sentencing two months from now - just one day, in fact, after Parliament rises on July 31. By then it will be largely academic whether Banks still has a seat given that he is retiring at the election anyway.
Arguably, the judge has done the Government no favours. The timing of Banks' sentencing may help National avoid a messy vote against holding a by-election in Banks' Epsom seat. But it opens the curtain on what is likely to be a chaotic and ugly few weeks before the election campaign proper gets under way.
Key will be forced to front up in Parliament and explain why his Government won't cut Banks loose. He will have to explain why he refused to delve deeper into the allegations against Banks even as the former ACT leader's memory blanks over donations to his Auckland mayoralty campaign, including one from internet entrepreneur Kim Dotcom, stretched credulity.
And dots will be joined between Banks and other recent scandals embroiling National MPs, including Maurice Williamson and Judith Collins.
There will also be questions about police, who threw out the initial complaints against the former police minister because of "insufficient evidence".
Key's line throughout has been that he believes Banks is an honest man. He has also distanced himself from the allegations by pointing out that they relate to Banks' time as Auckland mayor, before he re-entered Parliament as an ACT MP.
But just as his predecessor Helen Clark's lack of action against former Pacific Affairs Minister Taito Phillip Field damaged Labour, Key's decision to effectively turn a blind eye by insisting on taking Banks at his word will damage National.
His immediate problem, however, is whether to ask Epsom voters to hold their noses yet again and back an ACT candidate.

Saint Thomas More Senior Karina Salazar-Reyes has been awarded a 2013 Gates Millennium Scholarship, a highly competitive good-through-graduation grant which will allow her to pursue a degree in any undergraduate major at the accredited college or university of her choice. Continuing Gates Scholars may also request funding for graduate degree programs in select fields. Karina is the first Saint Thomas More student to receive the prestigious Gates Millennium Scholarship, and she was one of only ten students in Wisconsin chosen to receive the award.
Established in 1999 with the goal of developing "Leaders for America's Future," the Gates Millennium Scholars program is funded by a $1.6 billion grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The GMS Program is intended to remove barriers to education for 20,000 high-performing, low-income students. Each year, it enables 5,000 students to attend and graduate from 800 of the most selective private and public schools in the country, including Ivy League colleges, flagship state universities, and other institutions. The ultimate goal of the Gates Millennium Scholars program is to promote academic excellence by providing thousands of outstanding students with significant financial need the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Karina's parents came to the United States from Mexico in order to give their children a better chance to be successful. Karina learned the values and traditions of Mexican culture from them, along with the importance of hard work, education, and service to the community. As a result, Karina is both bilingual and bi-cultural, characteristics she celebrates through her involvement in the Latino Student Organization at Saint Thomas More and through her active participation in traditional dance groups at school and in the Milwaukee Hispanic community. She has maintained an impressive 3.79 GPA during her four years at Saint Thomas More. Karina has also given back to her community by volunteering and mentoring students at Notre Dame Middle School and Saint Thomas More, and by volunteering at the Casa Romero Retreat Center.
Karina will use her Gates Millennium Scholarship to enroll at St. John's University in New York City next fall. Her goal is to become a bilingual professional in the field of international business, and to return to work in the Milwaukee Hispanic community.
Congratulations to Karina!

Government departments and agencies build up routine information about all of us as part of their everyday activities. Who should have access to these data?
Were it not for Brexit, it's likely that the last few weeks would have seen far more discussion about this topic. On 5 July the Cabinet Office published the response to its consultation on the 'Better Use of Data in Government'. The document's proposals form the basis of a new Digital Economy Bill, which includes legislation to help researchers access data. The next day Dame Fiona Caldicott, the National Data Guardian for Health and Care, published her review of data security standards and proposed a new consent model for data sharing in the NHS and social care.
Researchers are interested in this so called 'administrative data' because its volume and detail can vastly exceed what it's possible to collect through other routes such as surveys. As a result, bodies like the Economic and Social Research Council have set up special Read more ›
