BANGALORE, India, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ittiam announces its next generation VCSroom bringing enterprise grade, over-the-top video conferencing to the living room, further enriched with call continuity and beam-forming for an enhanced consumer experience. New NPD In-Stat research forecasts that total users in the nascent living room video calling market will increase from 1.5 million in 2011 to 16.4 million in 2015.
The VCSroom is offered with a smartphone and tablet counterpart, VCSmobile. Both are standard compliant, interoperable yet tightly-integrated solutions. They allow users to enjoy seamless continuity in calls across smartphones or tablets and TV - as the user moves in and out of the living room. As an example, the user could place a call from the smartphone using VCSmobile while sitting in her study and seamlessly switch the call to her TV with a simple swipe - as she enters the living room. As the user leaves the room, she could switch the call back to her smartphone with the same ease. Call continuity allows the user to experience the call on the device of her convenience but without a break.
Acoustics for a living room conferencing system is a unique challenge – given the noisy environment, seating layout and acoustic conditions of the room. Consequently, over the top living room conferencing systems typically suffer from poor audio quality when the person speaking is not close enough to the microphone. VCSroom is equipped with advanced acoustic beam forming based on a microphone array that significantly improves the audio quality by reducing ambient noise and generating a single audio stream that is focused on the person speaking. The acoustic beam forming uses four microphones to single out the direction of active speaker and attenuate local audio reverberation to deliver high-quality audio experience even in a poor acoustic environment of a living room.
Salient features of VCSroom on the OMAP 5 platform include:
- Peer-to-peer video calling at 1080p
- Hands-free operation with high performance acoustics
- Beam Forming using microphone array
- Call continuity between mobile devices and the room conferencing system
- Intelligent, auto-adaptive bandwidth allocator that learns and adapts to the continuously changing network conditions
- Built-in Embedded Bridge delivers multi-party HD conferencing without external hardware or software or server assistance
"Our goal with the OMAP 5 processor has been to deliver an unmatched user experience," said Fred Cohen, director, OMAP ecosystem, TI. "We are excited to continue our collaboration with ecosystem partners such as Ittiam who make use of the defining features of this chipset, bringing out the best of the OMAP processor."
VCSroom on the OMAP 5 platform will be showcased at the TI Village in the North Hall (N115-N119) of the Las Vegas Convention Center at the Consumer Electronics Show, Las Vegas from 8th January to 11th January 2013.
VCSroom is available as an SDK with a reference application for Android™ and Linux™ that can be used to create standalone products or for enabling video calling in other products such as IP- STB's.
VCSmobile is available as an SDK with a reference application for Android™ and iOS™ that can be customized or integrated into other applications. VCSmobile will initially be made available on iPad™ and popular Android tablets and then will be made available on other devices based on request.

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 happe...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud.

Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

It's been a tough time for the Buffalo Bills as they lost founder and longtime owner Ralph Wilson at the age of 95 on March 25.
Wilson's widow, Mary Wilson, released a statement to thank those who have supported her late husband. Mary Wilson is running the franchise in the short-term.
"I want to take this opportunity to thank Bills fans and people everywhere for their tremendous outpouring of love for Ralph. Their heartfelt condolences and warm wishes have truly been a comfort for me, Ralph's daughters Christy and Dee Dee, Mary Owen and the entire Wilson family during this difficult time.
"Ralph loved his life and he had a great full life that touched so many people in a variety of ways. He loved his family and his many friends. He loved his Buffalo Bills and he loved the fans. Before he passed, he told me that he wanted people to celebrate his life after he was gone. He wasn't big on tears. And so that's why we are referring to events such as the one today as 'celebrating' the life of Ralph Wilson.
"This man accomplished so many things during his time and most of them have been well documented in the past couple of weeks. But the one thing that everyone has mentioned in their kind words was his sense of humor and that certainly was one of his most endearing qualities. Ralph most likely would have offered a funny quip about today's event. But at the same time, he would have been profoundly touched by the fans outpouring of emotion."

Hormel acquires Skippy
Hormel Foods has acquired Skippy, the second-largest peanut butter brand in the US, from Unilever. Through the deal, Hormel hopes to bolster its overseas presence and grow the domestic business through innovation. For its part, Unilever believes that a more focused US portfolio will yield better results.
Focus: Hormel's acquisition of Skippy 4 Jan 2013
The sale of Unilever's Skippy business was confirmed yesterday (3 January) when it was announced that the iconic peanut butter brand would find a new home with Hormel Foods. While Hormel clearly has big plans for Skippy, Unilever will be hoping that an increased focus will benefit its food portfolio. In part one of our two-part analysts, Katy Askew looks at how Hormel hopes the deal will benefit its bottom line.
Focus: Unilever's sale of Skippy 4 Jan 2013
News that Unilever has sold its Skippy peanut butter brand comes as little surprise. The well-flagged disposal follows a number of divestments in the packaged food space. The consumer goods giant is clearly hoping that its food interests will benefit from greater focus, while the decision to shed a largely US-leaning brand reflects Unilever's disposition towards emerging markets. Katy Askew reports.
US: Hormel acquires Unilever's Skippy businesses 3 Jan 2013
Hormel Foods will acquire the Skippy peanut butter brand from Unilever for a consideration of around US$700m, it emerged today (3 January).
Deal or no deal: Unilever's potential Skippy sale 15 Oct 2012
Consumer goods giant Unilever is "considering options" - including the potential sale - of its Skippy peanut butter brand in the US and Canada. The news has sparked fresh speculation that the group will ultimately sell off larger chunks of its food portfolio, which could lead to an eventual split. With Unilever insisting it "remains committed" to food, Katy Askew looks at the strategic rationale behind the possible sale.
US: Unilever mulls Skippy sale 4 Oct 2012

I applied online – interviewed at Theorem Clinical Research in October 2014.Interview Details
I was genuinely excited to receive initial email from recruiter about setting up initial phone interview. While I definitely prepped by familiarizing myself with specifics on Theorem areas of expertise as emerging CRO, the recruiter did not. Recruiter was slight abrasive (but whatever) & seemed annoyed that I was a strong hem/onc candidate with just senior/lead SITE level experience to date; but no history as employee of industry. I found this immensely frustrating/troubling as I have a detailed CV and even addressed my desire to move to industry side in cover letter. I attempted to salvage the call by reiterating my 4+ years of phase I experience working soley with industry CROs but recruiter had seemingly lost interest. I'm disappointed to day the least- if they don't review CVs prior to initiating contact they should at least spare 3 additional moments to allow candidate to expound on qualifications.Interview Questions

John Perkins, Nyack Commencement Speaker
On Monday, May 14, Dr. John M. Perkins, founder and president of the John M. Perkins Foundation for Reconciliation and Development (JMPF) in Jackson, MS, will be the Commencement speaker for Nyack College and Alliance Theological Seminary. The 2:00 p.m. ceremony will be held at the Westchester County Center in White Plains, NY.
John M. Perkins is a sharecropper's son who grew up in Mississippi in dire poverty. He fled to California when he was 17 and vowed never to return after his older brother's murder at the hands of a town marshal. However, in 1960, after his conversion to Christianity, he returned to his boyhood home to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. His outspoken nature and leadership as a civil rights activist resulted in repeated beatings and imprisonment.
Christianity Today magazine, placed the landmark book, Let Justice Roll Down, written by Dr. Perkins at number 14 among the top 50 books that have shaped evangelicals. Perkins, known as a community development pioneer, is credited in the publication's citation for presenting a "three-pronged solution to America's systemic race problem: relocation, reconciliation, and redistribution." The author of several other books including, With Justice For All, Beyond Charity, He's My Brother, Resurrecting Hope, and A Time to Heal, he has contributed chapters to other compilations.

Motorola boss offered $66M golden parachute in Google purchaseGoogles agreement to purchase Motorola Mobility includes a promise of $65.7 million in golden parachute compensation for Sanjay Jha, the chief executive officer of the Android device maker.
A golden parachute is an agreement between a company and an employee, usually a top executive, that specifies the benefits a person would receive in the event of termination of employment. The practice provides reassurance that a company will retain key executives after a merger is completed.
According to a recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Jha's potential payout totals $13.2 million in cash and $52.4 million in equity compensation. Roughly $35 million in similar incentives has also been promised to four other top executives of Motorola Mobility.
Jha served as co-CEO of Motorola from August 2008 until he became head of Motorola Mobility, the former Mobile Devices division of Motorola, in January 2011. Under his supervision, Motorola adopted Android as its primary smartphone operating system in late 2009.
Starting with the original Droid smartphone, Motorola contributed to the growing popularity of Googles mobile OS in the U.S. and has since launched a variety of Android smartphones and the Xoom tablet to challenge Apple's iPhone and iPad.
In August, Google announced plans to acquire Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion, with the deal expected to close by the end of the year or in early 2012, assuming regulatory approval. SEC Filings have since revealed that Google outbid itself by $3 billion in the course of one day as it rushed to close the deal.
Google's acquisition of Motorola would give it some 17,000 issued and 7,500 filed patents, which could be used by the search giant to defend its Android ecosystem but also to target competitors, including Apple, in future mobile-related patent cases.
Currently engaged in legal battles with Android device makers like Samsung, HTC and Motorola, Apple has filed motions to stay for two Motorola lawsuits, arguing that the company lacks the right to enforce its patents until the Google acquisition is finalized.

Had this been a gun, we would be hearing for calls to ban guns, and asking why
we even need them anymore.
However, since this is a car, and isn't associated with any political agenda it is going on without the complaints from liberals.
Why won't the liberals call for banning cars or call to make it more difficult to get a driver's license?

Small Business Association loan deadline looms
Published: June 22,2009
ACROSS MISSISSIPPI — The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is reminding businesses in Mississippi that Economic Injury Disaster Loans are still available to small businesses economically impacted by Hurricane Gustav that occurred Aug. 28-Sept. 8, 2008. The loan deadline is June 26.
Small businesses in the following counties are eligible to apply: Adams, Amite, Bolivar, Franklin, Hancock, Harrison, Humphreys, Issaquena, Jackson, Jefferson, Pearl River, Sharkey, Stone, Sunflower Washington and Wilkinson.
Loans are available up to $2 million for small businesses that suffered substantial economic injury from the disaster. These working capital loans may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable, and other bills that could have been paid had the disaster not occurred. These loans are not intended to replace lost sales or profits.
The interest rate on these loans is 4 percent, with a maximum term of 30 years. The SBA determines the amount of economic injury and the terms of each loan based on the financial circumstances of each borrower. The SBA determines eligibility for the program based on the size and type of business and its financial resources.
To obtain a loan application, interested business owners should contact the SBA's Customer Service Center by calling toll-free 1-800-659-2955 (1-800-877-8339 for the hearing-impaired), or by sending an e-mail to email@example.com. Business disaster loan applications can also be downloaded from www.sba.gov/services/disasterassistance. Completed applications should be mailed to: U.S. Small Business Administration, Processing and Disbursement Center, 14925 Kingsport Road, Fort Worth, TX 76155.
Victims may also visit the SBA's secure website at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela/ to apply for disaster loans.

Villeneuve: Formula 1 no longer special
– Jacques Villeneuve says Formula 1 is no longer special as a result of its latest regulation overhaul. The 1997 World Champion, speaking after his seat in this year's World Rallycross Championship was confirmed, reckons the new turbocharged 1.6-litre V6 power plants, in conjunction with the strict fuel limit per driver, per race, will detract from the overall spectacle, and reiterated his dislike of overtaking aids DRS and ERS. "With the engine regulations, everything is so restrictive that it's not F1 anymore, there's nothing special about it," said Villeneuve. "Conserving fuel is fine, and it was great in the past. The problem is that the drivers don't have to do...

Montverde Academy beats Oak Hill for Dick's National title
Apr 6, 2014, 10:16 AM EST
Montverde Academy (Fla.) capped off a perfect season with national title win on Saturday afternoon inside the World's Most Famous Arena. The Eagles (28-0) held off Oak Hill Academy (Va.), 71-62, in the Dick's Sporting Goods High School National Tournament championship game at Madison Square Garden.
Montverde Academy repeats as national champion. Two of Montverde's star players last season — Kasey Hill and Dakari Johnson — appeared in Saturday night's Final Four.
"The last couple of years, we've made some good strides to build the Montverde name," Montverde Academy head coach Kevin Boyle said, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Australian native and LSU commit Ben Simmons scored 24 points, 12 rebounds and five assists. The future Tiger earned tournament MVP honors. D'Angelo Russell, who will be at Ohio State next year, ended with 16 points and 11 rebounds.
Cody Martin, who play at NC State next season with his twin brother Caleb, led Oak Hill with 14 points and 10 boards.
Montverde Academy is ranked as the top team in the USA Today Super 25 rankings, and was No. 2 in the nation according to MaxPreps entering Saturday.
- kansacity88 - Apr 6, 2014 at 1:32 PM
Didn't Monteverde lose to some team from Chicago? But they were ineligible or something like that? I mean I'm just asking….congrats to them for the back-2-back titles, though!!

Sony wins subpoenas revealing visitors to PS3 jailbreaker site
Another blow to my privacy
I find it outrageous that some judge that has no jurisdiction over me has the right to disclose to a commercial enterprise such as Sony, the fact that I visited a site belonging to someone who they have a grievance with. The kid is hacking a games console, not showing people how to make nuclear bombs! Any UK solicitors willing to take this further? I am looking for some advice on this, must be free of course :)

Apple really should be more careful over who is allowed to buy their products. The thought of some old anorak been allowed to even touch an iPad is enough to put me off.

Iraq Civil War – #2 (Day 3): Two Georges Up In Flames
Finally, a news photo that illuminates the politics of the current Iraqi firestorm rather than the wrenching, but mostly non-explanatory wailing and corpse images.
As opposed to the propaganda coming out of Washington that "the Iraqi government" is cracking down on "criminals" (feel free to substitute the name "Moqtada al-Sadr" right there), the picture tells another story. What we see are demonstrators in Sadr City burning a photo of Abdul Aziz al-Hakim chumming it up with Junior in the White House.
In this case, because al-Sadr boycotted the last round of elections and Maliki and al-Hakim stand to lose ground in the October vote, it appears Maliki, using government police and military, teamed with al-Hakim's Badr Brigade, are trying to wipe out the Mahdi in Basra while it has the chance. In an act of exploitation that John McCain probably couldn't figure out in 100 years, Maliki has actually lured the U.S. into launching air strikes on behalf of his psuedo-governmental faction.
As regards the picture-in-the-picture, here's the original image of GDub (while thick in his George Washington phase) meeting al-Hakim in the Oval Office — a meeting which took place a month before the U.S. military embarrassed itself by trying to bust al-Hakim's son for visiting Iran. (And then, who aren't we backing that isn't tied up with Iran?)
The tragedy of this shot is not that Bush is going to burn for getting played in a deadly factional game he doesn't understand. It's that, in wearing George Washington like a halo, the symbol core of our democracy is going to burn with him.
Teetering (TPM)
And then, George Washington at Bush's back seems to resonate strongly with the recent: Before I Could Explain (BAGnewsNotes)

The problem arises though when you have to reconcile that fun, which you know will likely be short-lived, with the high price that Microsoft has stuck on the Kinect controller. We really like playing Dance Central, but we also know that we arent going to be playing it come the end of the week and if we do then itll be a rare, drunken event. That means we find it hard to justify recommending Kinect, or think of it as anything other than a me-too gimmick an opinion well stand by until Kinects awesome potential is realised.

Gold eases; eyes on Greek debt, U.S. fiscal woes
LONDON (Reuters) - Gold edged lower, trading at around $1,724 an ounce on Wednesday, with investors focused on efforts to agree financial aid for Greece, truce talks over Gaza and discussions on how to avert a fiscal crisis in the United States.
Spot gold slipped 0.25 percent to $1,723.71 an ounce by 1506 GMT. U.S. gold was up 0.03 percent at $1,724.10.
Gold prices had eased as the dollar firmed after Greece's lenders failed to strike a debt deal for the country, and later failed to react to U.S. jobless claims data, which came in as expected.
International lenders failed for the second week to reach a deal to release emergency aid for Greece and will try again next Monday, but Germany signalled that significant divisions remain.
"Gold is continuing to consolidate in its current range between $1,720 and $1,735-1,736. Buying would come in if gold goes below $1,720," Alexander Zumpfe, a trader at precious metals house Heraeus, said.
Losses in bullion were checked by expectations that U.S. lawmakers would reach a deal to avert automatic tax hikes and spending cuts in early 2013, which could otherwise trigger another recession.
"This optimism is about avoiding recession, which would weigh on gold prices because of concerns over deflation," said Bayram Dincer, analyst with LGT Capital Management.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Tuesday that 2013 could be a "very good year" for the U.S. economy if politicians can strike a quick deal to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff.
The conflict in the Middle East helped to support the gold price. A failure to reach a cease-fire would further support gold's safe-haven appeal, analysts said.
Gold can sometimes be viewed as a safe haven investment, especially in times of great uncertainty.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday pursued a Gaza truce, with Israel and Hamas still at odds over terms, as Israeli air strikes shook the enclave and a bomb exploded on a Tel Aviv bus.
News that Brazil, Kazakhstan and Turkey had raised their gold holdings also supported gold prices.
Brazil raised its gold holdings by 17.170 tonnes in October, data from the International Monetary Fund showed on Wednesday, bringing its bullion reserves to 52.518 tonnes.
"This is a chunky purchase by a central bank, and the gold market will likely sit up and pay attention to today's news, not just because of its size but because this is a central bank that has not been active in the market for some time," UBS said in a note to clients.
Traders and analysts expect gold to remain rangebound as some traders unwind long positions before Thanksgiving, but say the longer-term outlook for gold remains positive due to expectations of a continuing ultra-loose monetary environment in the United States.
Spot silver eased 0.48 percent to $33.00 an ounce.
Platinum edged up 0.13 percent to $1,571.25, while palladium was last at $638.5, up 0.83 percent.

Thailand: Protest arrests set "dangerous precedent", military regime must show restraint

News Source : Thailand: Protest arrests set "dangerous precedent", military regime must show restraint
The new Thai military regime has imposed harsh restrictions on freedom of expression and assembly that should be repealed immediately, Amnesty International said as the army dispersed a peaceful protest today and reportedly arrested at least three people.
The organization also urges the military regime to immediately clarify the whereabouts of scores of political leaders reported to be detained in unknown locations, and allow them access to lawyers.
Hundreds of people gathered in central Bangkok today to demand a return to civilian rule, before soldiers dispersed the protest in the evening local time after it had carried on for several hours. At least three demonstrators were reportedly arrested.
"If soldiers are arresting peaceful protesters then this is a dangerous precedent – people simply expressing opinions must not be penalized. The need for the military to exercise restraint is particularly crucial given that demonstrations calling for civilian rule could intensify," said Richard Bennett, Amnesty International's Asia Pacific Director.
"Maintaining public order cannot be an excuse for violating human rights."
Thailand's military has suspended the country's constitution apart from sections relating to the monarchy, banned gatherings of more than five people and forbidden reporting - including on social media - critical of the military and martial law.
More than 150 prominent figures, including leading politicians, have been banned from leaving the country. Dozens, including the recently ousted Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, are reported to have been detained in the last two days, and their whereabouts are unknown.
"It is deeply worrying that the military has moved to detain political leaders. The regime must immediately clarify a legal basis for this move and where they are. No-one should be detained on the basis for their peaceful political opinions or affiliations," said Richard Bennett.
"They should either be released or charged with a recognizably criminal offence, then remanded by an independent, civilian court."
Clear instructions must be given to security forces that torture and other forms of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment must not be carried out, and that any personnel suspected of such violations will be brought to justice.

Hi: 9° Lo:6°
By Dan Santy Friday 25 January 2013 Updated: 05/02 08:19
THREE drivers have suffered at the hands of thieves targeting catalytic converters in as many days.
Police are warning owners of vans and 4x4s to find ways to protect themselves from thieves after three converters were stolen this week from town streets.
Due to their height 4x4s and vans are easy targets for such thefts, with skilled thieves able to remove the converters in a matter of seconds.
On Monday (January 21) a catalytic converter was stolen on Winfield Street, causing more than £2,000 of damage to the vehicle.
Further thefts of converters were reported on Tuesday (January 22) from Malvern Avenue and on Wednesday (January 23) in Claremont Road.
Police are urging owners of 4x4s and vans to consider fitting anti-theft devices to their converters. The kits, which can be bought online, cost around £100.
Other security measures include etching kits which enable a catalytic converter to be identified if it is stolen.
And stickers placed in the vehicle window, stating the converter has been marked, may act as a deterrent to thieves.
Crime prevention officer, Ian King, said: "The cost of the kits to secure the catalytic converter is a small price to pay compared to the damage and inconvenience caused if it is stolen.
"I also recommend the cat converter is marked at the same time as the locking device is fitted. Unfortunately due to the speed with which the thieves can strike they can be stolen from wherever you park. The thieves arrive with their tools and within seconds have removed it.
"Police regularly carry out checks on scrap metal dealers, which is where the stolen catalytic converters end up, and if the owner has marked their cat converter police will be able to identify it as being stolen. This information alone could lead to an arrest and a conviction."

Actress Foluke Daramola Ejected From Marwa Gardens Abode
Surely, sultry actress Foluke Daramola has not been finding life easy since her marriage collapsed some years back. The setback that the breakup caused her affected her career and her life to the extent that she is alleged not to have an apartment of her own.
We gathered that a Good Samaritan offered her his house somewhere in Marwa Gardens in the heart of Alausa area of Lagos for N250,000 for a room. The house is very close to one of her sisters' place where she was staying before she was asked to move for reasons best known to both of them.
Though she paid an initial N100,000, she could not raise the balance of N150,000 for the room and instead of going about her business in a quiet manner, we learnt she started telling all who cared to listen that she was the owner of the place without the consent of the person that allowed her to squat there. She would bring her friends and use the place as movie location, which didn't go down well with her benefactor though he did not say anything all the while.
Aside this, she was alleged to be in the habit of disturbing the peace of other neighbours of the apartment which is located on Avocado Street in the dead of the night with loud prayers. She would be dressed in her Celestial Church uniform popularly called sutana, spreading salt and other prayer materials common with the spiritual church members.
Those close to the neighborhood revealed to us that her prayer often sounded like she wanted to take over the house from the real occupier. Our sources further divulged that things didn't go down well with the Good Samaritan (names withheld) who was advised by some people to ease out the stranger if he did not want to experience a downward slide in his life.
This we learnt prompted him to eject her from his house and she was said to have moved to another building on the same street because she wanted to stay in the expensive estate at all costs. However instead of keeping her distance from the house where she was ejected, she still stormed the place with her crew to shoot a movie, shouting and constituting nuisance in the area.
Her going back to the place, we learnt, must have stemmed from the fact that she had given an impression to many people that she was the owner of the apartment. Probably to hide her shame when contacted by her friends for the use of the apartment, she would have to take them there to prove it belonged to her.

Scouting 'First Four' players
How Austin Rivers and others on rookie deals are playing in summer league
Summer league is often pitched as an opportunity to see the latest batch of rookies perform for the first time in a pseudo-NBA environment. There is a natural curiosity that makes us want to see how the Otto Porters and the Shabazz Muhammads of the world fare against a higher level of competition. But summer league isn't just about upcoming rookies showing their stuff; it is also a valuable training and experimentation ground for young players still on their rookie-scale contracts, or players in their "First Four," as I like to call them (first four years of their NBA careers).
For some, it's a chance to show that they've reached a level of development where they can contribute on a nightly basis to their teams. For others, it's an opportunity to work on underdeveloped aspects of their games, to experiment and push the boundaries of their talents.
Whatever the case, it's becoming increasingly valuable in today's NBA to have a firm and up-to-date grasp on the development and abilities of "First Four" players, because they represent subsidized talent (due to rookie-scale contracts for first-round picks, and what usually amounts to minimum deals for second-round picks). Here is a look at five such players and what they've shown so far in Las Vegas:
Austin Rivers | SG | New Orleans Pelicans
After a much maligned rookie season that ended with a wrist injury, Rivers has had an opportunity to absorb the criticisms levied prior to the start of the season and figure out how much of them were applicable to his abysmal performance in 2012-13. He was one of the least efficient players in the entire league, and struggled to justify the use of a lottery pick on him. I wrote about his "design flaws" at the beginning of last season, and questioned whether he had a realistic self-appraisal of his own abilities.
