BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/03/12 --
- 77% of marketers currently using point solutions expressed desire to move to cloud-based solutions
- ClickSquared's Dan Smith to highlight how to make the move during Master Class 'Taking Marketing Technology into the Cloud' at NCDM 2012
- Best practices of successful cloud-based marketing solutions to be analyzed
According to a survey conducted by The Relevancy Group and ClickSquared earlier this year, direct marketers' desire for utilizing a cross-channel campaign management solution offered as software as a service (SaaS) is high -- regardless of current deployment. Seventy-seven percent of marketers using a combination of point solutions expressed interest, confirming that the marketing function is ready to leap to the cloud.
Dan Smith, senior vice president of marketing for ClickSquared, will address the topic of SaaS cross-channel campaign management in his session at NCDM titled, "Taking Marketing Technology into the Cloud." Smith will explore what solutions are available today, what is on the horizon, and best practices for implementing. Smith will also share how marketers who choose a SaaS marketing solution can increase speed to market, capture efficiencies, enjoy lower cost of ownership and maximize marketing effectiveness -- without sacrificing functionality.
Smith's presentation will be held at NCDM 2012 on Wednesday, December 5 in Orlando. Smith will address marketers in a Master Class session on effectiveness, accountability and ROI. Smith's presentation will analyze the current state of cloud-based marketing solutions and provide real-world examples of how companies have achieved cross-channel success. In addition, ClickSquared will be exhibiting at NCDM at booth #400.
"The desire for marketers to use a single campaign management suite is strong with 74% of marketers responding favorably in our survey earlier this year. Marketers are concluding that the most efficient and cost-effective way to manage their cross-channel marketing campaigns is by using SaaS solutions," said Dan Smith, SVP of marketing at ClickSquared. "The benefits of moving to the cloud are becoming clear to savvy marketers that seek to engage in a consistent cross-channel dialogue with their customers. They are increasingly embracing SaaS campaign management solutions as the way to cost-effectively consolidate customer data and orchestrate cross-channel customer communications to drive superior results for their companies."

One of the biggest challenges when developing connected devices is identifying user value and delivering it through successful user experiences. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Mike Kuniavsky, Principal Scientist, Innovation Services at PARC, described an IoT-specific approach to user experience design that combines approaches from interaction design, industrial design and service design to create experiences that go beyond simple connected gadgets to create lasting, multi-device experiences grounded in people's real needs and desires.

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed w...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Hunter, Chief Scientist & Technology Evangelist at Greenwave Systems, examined three key elements that together will drive mass adoption of the IoT before the end of 2015. The first element is the recent advent of robust open source protocols (like AllJoyn and WebRTC) that facilitate M2M communication. The second is broad availability of flexible, cost-effective storage designed to handle the massive surge in back-end data in a world where timely analytics is e...

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

The Blue Jays may be willing to swap Jose Bautista for pitching help
Nov 17, 2013, 7:05 PM EST
Despite the recently debunked trade rumor involving Jose Bautista and the Phillies, started by radio personality Howard Eskin, the Blue Jays may still be willing to move him for pitching help according to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe. Cafardo writes that the Jays are looking to add multiple starters. Given the dearth of quality arms available in free agency, acquiring at least one pitcher via trade may make sense for the Jays.
Bautista turned 33 years old last month and is owed $14 million in each of the 2014 and 2015 seasons, quite reasonable for a player of his caliber. However, he has played in fewer than 120 games in each of the past two seasons, suffering from a wrist injury in 2012 and a hip contusion last season.

Local veterans groups and residents gathered at Hicksville Middle School Veterans Memorial Park recently to honor brave servicemen and woman, past and present. William M. Gouse Jr. Post 3211 hosted Hicksville's annual Veterans Day ceremony on Nov. 11.
The ceremonies began with the pledge and national anthem sung by Hicksville High School student Cassie Pursoo, accompanied by trumpeter Conner Hoelzer. Monsignor Thomas Costa from Our Lady of Church in Hicksville gave the invocation.

On Nov. 10, a dedication ceremony was held to celebrate the completion of a beautiful new two-story house in Hicksville. However, while new dwellings are an ordinary occurrence on Long Island, this one was unique and special in a way that very few are.
The house at 77 Thorman Ave. was built in memory of Navy Lieutenant and posthumous Congressional Medal of Honor recipient Michael P. Murphy, a Long Island native who tragically died in combat while serving in Afghanistan in 2005. However, this house represents more than just the dedicated service of a man to his country; it represents the beginning of a new life full of hope for a brother-in-arms and his family as well.

KANSAS CITY – Cocoa grindings in the second quarter in all the major markets were reported higher last week, indicating a pickup in what has been a somewhat slack pattern of demand.
That news propelled ICE Futures U.S. cocoa bean futures sharply higher last week. Although prices were slightly lower early July 22, the nearby September contract jumped about $100 a tonne last week and was up about $200 a tonne, or 9%, since late June.
The largest jump took place in North America, including the United States, Canada and Mexico, where the second-quarter cocoa bean grind was pegged at 126,044 tonnes, up 12% from the same quarter a year ago, according to the National Confectioners Association. The increase in grinding was far above expectations of a 3% to 4% rise.
Cocoa bean grindings are viewed as a proxy for chocolate demand, which experienced a prolonged period of weakness following the 2008 financial crisis. Analysts said the rising U.S. equities market probably was creating something of a wealth effect and making luxury consumer goods, including chocolate, more attractive.
Cocoa bean grindings in Europe, the leading per capita consumer of chocolate, also rose during the second quarter. The European Cocoa Association reported grind at 310,408 tonnes, an increase of 6% from the same quarter in 2012.
In Asia, reflecting grind n Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, second-quarter grindings were reported last week at 153,792 tonnes, up 2% from with the same quarter a year ago, the Cocoa Association of Asia said.
Increased second quarter cocoa bean grind in all three regions was a marked improvement over the first quarter, when North American grind increased 6% but European grind fell 4% and Asian grind was down 11% from the first quarter of 2012.

By Express News Service - COIMBATORE

Last Updated: 16th November 2012 10:53 AM
An 18-year-old boy was arrested in connection with the recent assault on an RSS functionary Anandan at Mettupalayam, on Wednesday.
On November 6, Anandan was on his way home when he was allegedly assaulted by a group of unidentified persons.
Amidst protests to arrest those responsible for the attacks, the police registered a case and launched a hunt for the miscreants.
On Wednesday, the police arrested a resident of Mahadevapuram, Mettupalayam in connection with the assault.
Police said the accused (name withheld), was arrested a few months ago for sending mischievous SMSes to a few persons and was out on bail.
The eighteen-year-old was produced before a magistrate in the city on Wednesday night and was remanded in judicial custody at the Bostral School at Pollachi.
A hunt is on for more persons suspected to be involved in the assault. Further investigations are on.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The Sacramento Zoo has euthanized a snow leopard after the animal suffered a back injury that left it unable to move around comfortably.
Zoo officials say Shanti, a 20-year-old snow leopard, was euthanized on Friday, a little less than a week after they noticed her injury.
She had suffered damaged vertebrae, and her condition did not improve with antibiotics and pain medication. She also had a bite wound, suggesting she had fought with her male companion. Zoo officials say it's not clear whether the two injuries were related.
The decision to euthanize the cat was made after it suffered additional neurological complications and infection.
Snow leopards are listed as endangered.

2014 NFL Playoffs: 5 Reasons Why You Don't Want to Face the Panthers
Carolina Panthers Are Talented and Dangerous
The Carolina Panthers follow a winning formula every week, and it carried them to 11 wins in their last 12 contests to earn the NFC South title, the second seed in the NFC and a first-round bye. Nobody really took notice of Carolina through the first half of the 2013 season, but a hard-fought 10-9 victory over the San Francisco 49ers – the Panthers' opponent in the Divisional Round Sunday – garnered Carolina respect. A come-from-behind thriller on the road against the defending conference champs tends to make people pay attention.
So after struggling to a 23-41 record in the previous four seasons combined, Carolina returns to the postseason for the first time since 2008. This group is poised to ride the momentum and confidence from the regular season and take it straight through the playoffs.
Though it takes a team effort to go 12-4 in the NFL, it's clear the defense is the backbone and driving force behind the Panthers' success. The defense allowed just 15.1 points per game and 301.2 yards per contest during the regular season, good for second in the NFL in both categories. One factor in the team's stifling performance is the ability to shut down the final 20 yards of the field. Carolina's enemies scored a touchdown on only 41 percent of their red zone trips, the third-best mark in football.
With a hungry core of players led by quarterback Cam Newton and an intimidating defensive presence, the Panthers are a dangerous team with legitimate Super Bowl aspirations.
5. Luke Kuechly is a Game Changer
First team All-Pro linebacker Luke Kuechly tilts the field in favor of Carolina's defense and forces the opposing offense to game plan around him. The second-year pro boasts terrific instincts and solid read-and-react skills to put himself in position to impact nearly every play. With 93 tackles, seven passes defended, four interceptions and two sacks during the regular season, Kuechly will make his presence felt in a variety of ways in the playoffs.
4. Stout Run Defense
I'm well aware the NFL favors the pass and is a quarterback-driven league; however, stopping the run is still an important factor in victory. Carolina gives up less than 87 rushing yards per game and has allowed a mere four touchdowns on the ground all season. The Panthers' stinginess in the run game will be vital as their next foe, San Francisco, was third in the NFL in rushing yards on the year. Meanwhile, the top-seeded Seattle Seahawks were fourth on the ground, and the final NFC squad, the New Orleans Saints, ran for 185 yards in their Wild Card victory.
3. Cam Newton: Playmaker Ready for the Next Step
It's not always pretty, but Cam Newton has been finding ways to produce and collect wins throughout the campaign. A strong arm, amazing mobility and keen awareness of his surroundings all make the third-year QB a frightening opponent to face. While his passing yards (3,379) and rushing yards (585) dropped, the dual-threat and ability to make something out of nothing led to a career-best 12 wins, including four game-winning drives. Newton had career-highs in completion percentage (61.7) and touchdown passes (24) in 2013, adding greater dimension to his impressive skill-set. Next on the checklist is a few playoff victories.
2. Success Winning Late, Close Games
There's something about a team learning to pull out tight ballgames in the final minutes that makes you believe the squad has a major advantage. Most postseason contests go down to the wire with players coming through when the clock is winding down and the team needs a play. Led by Newton, the Panthers produced four wins thanks to fourth-quarter comebacks with five of their 12 victories by four or less points. This group has faced adversity, battled back and proven the ability to fight through the pressure of close games to come out on top. Needing a late rally or holding onto a slim lead in the fourth quarter will be no problem for Carolina.
1. Sacks, Turnovers the Ultimate Factor
Carolina led the NFL in sacks with 60, constantly pressuring opposing quarterbacks and taking them to the turf. Greg Hardy (15 sacks) and Charles Johnson (11 sacks) wreak havoc on the quarterback and can swing a game's momentum in a heartbeat. While the sacks are obviously beneficial, it's the uneasiness, doubt and panic a quarterback feels from that relentless pass rush that is paid off with more valuable dividends.
From 2002-2008 in the NFL regular season, the team who won the turnover battle had a record of 810-220-2 (.786), and it's only magnified in the playoffs. The Panthers forced a turnover to end 16.3 percent of their opponents' drives, the second-best mark in the NFL. On the other side of the ball, Carolina was third-best at protecting the pigskin. With only 19 turnovers all season, the Panthers forced teams to go on lengthy drives against their tough defense. Meanwhile, the pressure they put on opposing offenses led the Panthers to collect 20 interceptions (fifth in the NFL), a key number in a pass-friendly league. This all led to Carolina's +0.7 edge in turnover margin, good for fourth in all of football.

10/30/2012 (10:31PM - 11:00PM) (Tuesday) : IT'S HALLOWEEN AND HERE COMES BRYAN BOO BOO? -- Nicole Richie AND George Takei GUEST STAR – Bryan (Andrew Rannells) is getting into the Halloween spirit by doing what he does every year -- decorating the house so that it is the envy of the neighborhood and making his annual trip to the pumpkin patch with his bestie Nicole Richie to spot celebrities. Also, with the help of the 'Sing' make-up artist, Sam (guest-star George Takei), Bryan dictates what everyone's costumes are going to be. However, when he insists on a 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' Halloween theme, David (Justin Bartha) rebels and defiantly sports a Tom Brady costume. Meanwhile, Goldie (Georgia King) is still struggling with the on-going custody battle for Shania. Later, Clay (Jayson Blair) makes a shocking announcement that puts Jane (Ellen Barkin) over The Edge. NeNe Leaks also stars.
