Failure to adapt is one of the surest ways for today's winners to become tomorrow's losers. IT security company Check Point Software (Nasdaq:CHKP) looks to be addressing that risk as best it can, with ongoing product development and migration. While this is by no means the cheapest stock out there, investors may still want to consider this name as a somewhat balanced trade-off of growth and value.

Another Solid Quarter to End the Year
Check Point reported that revenue rose 12% in the fourth quarter. That more or less matched the averaged analyst estimate. Deferred revenue, though, was up 19% this quarter and seemed to beat expectations by a more meaningful extent. As Check Point moves on with a somewhat new model, investors should expect deferred revenue to be a more meaningful metric.
Although Check Point already boasts exceptional profitability, management still drove improvements. Gross margin improved about 60 basis points, while GAAP operating income rose 19% (driving operating margin up three points). (For related reading, see A Look At Corporate Profit Margins.)
A New Annuity Model?
Check Point has been seeing good uptake of its new software blade products, and its appliances are finding their way into the replacement cycle for an enterprise firewall infrastructure that's getting a bit long in the tooth. To that end, 2012 will see a major update to Check Point's appliance portfolio and the first really new hardware in a couple of years.
With new products, a new model is likely emerging. Check Point is focusing on driving customer adoption of so-called "annuity blades" that can produce a stream of revenue over a period of years. If successful, this will alter the revenue composition of Check Point and create a longer-tail stream of deferred revenue.
Big in Its Core, Looking to the Periphery
Check Point has a very solid market share position in its core markets like enterprise firewalls. Appliances represent an incremental growth opportunity; Check Point has trailed companies like Fortinet (Nasdaq:FTNT) and SonicWALL in unified threat management (UTM) and has about 15% of the overall appliance market - on par with Juniper (Nasdaq:JNPR), but well behind Cisco (Nasdaq:CSCO).
It's not just about penetrating the appliance business. Check Point also has the opportunity for greenfield growth in market categories like IPS, DLP and encryption. Though none of these markets are as large as Check Point's traditional markets, together they are quite considerable. Keep in mind too that as hardware and software evolve, so too do the security needs of enterprise clients. In other words, "the next big thing" for Check Point may not even exist today.
What's the European Story?
Check Point gets more than one-third of its revenue from Europe and a slowdown on the continent is near the top of every analyst's list of worries for 2012. Fourth quarter results seem encouraging enough, but if conditions get worse companies will cut IT spending. There's an argument to be made that companies will skimp less on security IT than other areas, but the risk is still there.
The Bottom Line
Security is an ever-evolving market and that makes Check Point's market leadership set in something much less solid than stone. Nevertheless, the company has shown a rare ability to roll with the punches and reinvest prudently in its own business - not to mention supplementing when and where it needs to with acquisitions.
Check Point is not especially cheap from the perspective of EV/EBITDA or EV/revenue, but the company has a long history of good returns on capital and solid cash flow generation. If Check Point can grow its free cash flow at a 10-year CAGR of just 6%, these shares look about 30% undervalued. That does not seem demanding, but investors need only look at names like Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) or CA (NYSE:CA) to see the valuation compression risks that go with slower-growth software names.

Jeff Roberson, Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Roy Halladay gave up a grand slam to Yadier Molina in an abbreviated two-inning start before leaving with shoulder soreness, and the St. Louis Cardinals avoided a four-game sweep with an 8-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.
The Phillies were looking for their first four-game sweep in St. Louis in 99 years.
Adam Wainwright (4-5) allowed a run on seven hits in six innings, thriving in 90-degree heat for his second straight dominant outing. Molina left due to dehydration during an at-bat in the fifth.
All of the Cardinals' runs came from homers. Carlos Beltran's three-run homer in the fifth was his NL-leading 15th and rookie Matt Adams, who's been filling in for injured Lance Berkman at first base, hit the first of his career off Chad Qualls in the seventh.
Halladay (4-5) departed with a 3.98 ERA after an outing that matched the second-shortest outing of his career. The team said the two-time Cy Young award winner was taken out as a precautionary measure and that he'll be re-evaluated in the next few days.
The Phillies are already without stars Ryan Howard and Chase Utley. Halladay was 19-6 with a 2.35 ERA last year, and allowed 10 homers in 32 starts.
Since winning his first three starts, Halladay is 1-5 with a 5.08 ERA in eight games, and the Phillies have lost seven of his last eight starts. He's absorbed the last two losses for the Phillies, who entered the series finale on a four-game winning streak.
Molina's third career grand slam was the fifth allowed by Halladay, two of them this year after the Braves' Brian McCann connected May 2 at Atlanta. Halladay has allowed six homers this season, all this month.
Skip Schumaker and Matt Holliday singled with one out and David Freese walked with two outs before Molina hit his seventh homer of the season to straightaway center, a deceptive drive that had Shane Victorino backpedaling before running out of room.
This is the 89th time the two teams have met in St. Louis for a four-game series since the Phillies' last sweep in 1913. The Phillies' last three-game sweep in St. Louis was in 2006.
Molina made the Cardinals' only mistake, trotting from first to third after believing Adams' drive right-center in the fourth was a homer. Victorino made a leaping catch at the wall to rob Adams of extra bases and threw to first for an easy double play.
The Phillies' 2-3-4 hitters, Juan Pierre, Hunter Pence and Carlos Ruiz, combined for seven hits. Pierre had three hits and two RBIs.
The Cardinals lead the NL with 63 homers after entering the game with eight more than the next-best Brewers.
Wainwright has allowed three runs in 21 2/3 innings his last three starts, including a shutout with nine strikeouts against the Padres in his last time out. He walked none for the first time this season and struck out two to go to 3-1 for his career against Philadelphia.
NOTES: The Cardinals are the first team in the majors with three players hitting 10 or more homers. ... The Phillies lost for just the fourth time in their last 14 road games. ... Halladay had no strikeouts and remained 10 shy of becoming the fourth active player with 2,000. ... Before McCann's grand slam earlier this month, the last slam off Halladay was by the Rays' Evan Longoria in 2008. ... Molina's last grand slam was Sept. 6, 2010 at Milwaukee against Todd Coffey.

The managing editor of the nonprofit news organization ProPublica has been named to the 19-member board that administers the Pulitzer Prizes in journalism and the arts.
Columbia University announced Thursday that Stephen Engelberg will join the board. Engelberg has been managing editor of ProPublica since it was started in 2008.
ProPublica was the first online news organization to win a Pulitzer. It won the investigative reporting prize in 2010 for chronicling life-and-death decisions by a hospital's exhausted doctors after Hurricane Katrina. A year later it won the national reporting prize for exposing Wall Street practices that contributed to the nation's economic meltdown.
Before joining ProPublica, Engelberg worked for The Norfolk Virginian-Pilot, The Dallas Morning News, The New York Times and The Oregonian of Portland, Ore.

With more smartphones being utilized everywhere, should we be redefining cloud computing? If not redefining it, at least recalibrating it to encompass and fit new edge technology that is becoming the device of choice.
Many organizations that are looking at implementing cloud computing should also be looking at BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) concepts that focus on smartphones and tablets.
Why? More people are using smartphones and tablets than PCs today. They don't want to be burdened with "computing," that sounds too technical. All they want to do is make a call and get things done.
Distillation of Applications to Apps
Middleware, firewalls, hosted services, infrastructure, and all the other complex facets of data-centric applications need to be re-engineered and streamlined to fit into the new choice in edge technology. No it's not the next laptop or PC; it's the smartphone and tablet.
People don't care about all the technical interfaces, the connectivity concepts, or any of the other techie jargon that make applications work. All they want to do is pull out their smartphone and complete a transaction. No wait, that is too techie. All they want to do is make a cloud call.
What is a cloud call? A cloud call can be anything. It can be:
- Pulling up a video
- Paying for an item (digital wallet)
- Doing a Google search
- Asking for directions
- Making reservations
- Playing a game
- Just making a phone call
Some social media "tools" might be still searching for relevance and a better way to monetization, but what they have done is bring in a very casual type of user who isn't enamored by glitzy tech issues or complex interfaces.
The casual user just wants to communicate with others and facilitate transactions to make life simpler. They don't want to earn a degree in computer science in order to use their phone.
Convergence of Edge Technology
When you go out of the house, do you always take your laptop? Do you always take a tablet? No, the only device that you take out is your smartphone.
If the smartphone is going to be viewed as the new "universal" edge technology, then all applications have to be designed with that in mind. This means adjusting to certain issues and weaknesses, like power consumption and screen size.
There are already big shifts in reworking real estate and intelligent buildings so that smartphones can be applied as edge technology where no interfacing end-user technology exists.
A great example is a sports stadium. Going to the game, no one is lugging a laptop or toting a tablet, but they are bringing in their smartphone. If the smartphone can be used as the "edge technology" for interactivity with the stadium's network," look at all the apps that can be developed for a richer fan experience.
This is happening already and you have the ability to order concessions, order team wear and other event memorabilia from your seat.
This is breathing new life into the stadium as well as the teams' revenues without having to build out a total network infrastructure to a 70,000 seat stadium. Could you imagine the cost of putting in an electronic terminal device at every seat and hooking it back up to a group of servers?
Next-generation real estate and commercial buildings have to take all this into consideration as people adopt new "edge technology" that is not tied to or limited to the company that they work at.
"Let your fingers do the walking" has been replaced with "Let your fingers do the shopping."

The IoT market is on track to hit $7.1 trillion in 2020. The reality is that only a handful of companies are ready for this massive demand. There are a lot of barriers, paint points, traps, and hidden roadblocks. How can we deal with these issues and challenges? The paradigm has changed. Old-style ad-hoc trial-and-error ways will certainly lead you to the dead end. What is mandatory is an overarching and adaptive approach to effectively handle the rapid changes and exponential growth.

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

Can call centers hang up the phones for good? Intuitive Solutions did. WebRTC enabled this contact center provider to eliminate antiquated telephony and desktop phone infrastructure with a pure web-based solution, allowing them to expand beyond brick-and-mortar confines to a home-based agent model. It also ensured scalability and better service for customers, including MUY! Companies, one of the country's largest franchise restaurant companies with 232 Pizza Hut locations. This is one example of WebRTC adoption today, but the potential is limitless when powered by IoT.

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers. One aspect of the current public clouds that is slowing this cloud migration is cloud lock-in. Every cloud vendor is trying to make it very difficult to move out once a customer has chosen their cloud.

The handling of "data" has been limited to text chat and file download – all other data sharing seems to end with screensharing. What is holding back a more intensive use of peer-to-peer data? In her session at @ThingsExpo, Dr Silvia Pfeiffer, WebRTC Applications Team Lead at National ICT Australia, will look at different existing uses of peer-to-peer data sharing and how it can become useful in a live session to...

WebRTC has had a real tough three or four years, and so have those working with it. Only a few short years ago, the development world were excited about WebRTC and proclaiming how awesome it was. You might have played with the technology a couple of years ago, only to find the extra infrastructure requirements were painful to implement and poorly documented. This probably left a bitter taste in your mouth, especially when things went wrong.

Venice Film Festival announces Golden Lion contenders
26 July 2014 [12:30] -
This year's Venice Film Festival will tackle topics from the financial crisis to drone warfare, and feature performances from Willem Dafoe, Al Pacino and Ethan Hawke.
Organizers on Thursday announced a 20-strong competition lineup that includes Ramin Bahrani's subprime mortgage drama 99 Homes, with Andrew Garfield and Laura Dern, and Andrew Niccol's The Good Kill, starring Hawke as a dissatisfied drone operator.
The latter will have its North American premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September.
Other films competing for the Golden Lion include David Gordon Green's Texan drama Manglehorn starring Pacino and Holly Hunter; Abel Ferrara's Pasolini, starring Dafoe as the taboo-breaking Italian filmmaker; and The Cut by Turkish-German director Fatih Akin.
Manglehorn and Pasolini will also be screened at TIFF.
The 71st Venice Film Festival opens Aug. 27 with the world premiere of Alejandro Inarritu's Birdman or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance, starring Michael Keaton. The festival runs to Sept. 6.

Bank of China : Michelin's recommendations
A symbol of the Chinese Nationalist Government, located in the middle of the Western concessions, the Bank of China (1937) has superbly adapted the skyscraper concept to local architectural influences, with its pyramidal roof curved at each corner and supported by a labyrinth of beams, openwork windows featuring traditional geometric motifs, dragons guarding the entrance etc. Originally designed as a 33-storey building, the original project was swayed by the influence of Victor Sassoon, who didn't want the Peace Hotel standing in its shadow. In the end, only 16 floors were built.

South Bergenite Article: Red Wheelbarrow poetry group releases eighth edition in RutherfordOctober 8, 2015
From http://www.northjersey.com/arts-and-entertainment/books/red-wheelbarrow-poets-publish-8th-volume-of-poetry-1.1427921:
"I fell in love with poetry in high school or earlier, the poetry of Shakespeare, Yeats, Donne and others. The music of those poets got stuck in my head, and I felt a need to write my own, like when a song gets stuck in your head and only singing it will get it out," Zirilli says. "In high school, however, my poetry sounded like jingles. It was truly awful. Slowly, I found the right music for my words. I guess it was the right combination of difficult and rewarding to make it truly addictive."
A Healthcare IT manager, Zirilli holds a Bachelor of Arts in both Computer Science and English Literature. His hobbies are poetry, art and photography, all of which he cannot live without, he notes.
His approach to writing poetry is not to fuss over quantity or content.
"I only write if I have something to write. I'll see something, or hear something, or a certain phrase will occur to me. The poem starts there," Zirilli shares. "I might start right away or I might wait months before I start writing it down and expanding it. The seed, if it's any good, will create more words until the poem is done. I rarely plan the poem. I just let it write itself out."
To foster creativity and allow it to grow takes time.
"The trick is overcoming the blank page, which sits there like a terrible abyss. The seed image or phrase might not be the beginning of the poem, but I'll usually put that down first just to get rid of that blank page. Often, I'll write longhand first. A first draft might be fast, under an hour, if I don't get stuck," Zirilli reveals. "Then typing it into the computer becomes the first revision. After the first revision, it gets hard to revise, hard to get back into the poem again, but I've found that sometimes I'm able to revise old poems because I've mostly forgotten writing them, so I bring fresh eyes to them."
Zirilli's contributions to the poetry book include around 15 pages of poetry as well as a 10-page literary analysis of Williams' work. Influenced by Yeats as much as Williams, he notes that the two use imagery differently — the Irishman who used rhyming couplets in stanzas, and the free verse poet — yet in somewhat similar poems.
"This is the man who said the poem is a machine, and sometimes you can take a machine apart and can never put it back together again," Zirilli writes.
"I think it's fair to say it's a warning about [not against] editing, but it can even happen while you're writing the poem for the first time. It's like you're trying to get back to the original feeling that inspired the poem, but that original feeling was wordless, and if you obsess too much about recreating it you can lose the poem, have no words left to speak it," Zirilli explains.
His biggest poetic influences were Shakespeare and the Beatles. Of the 18 poems Zirilli contributed in the book, he writes about topics such as growing up drawn into nature, northern New Jersey malls and floods, Kanye West, and more, with imagery throughout including a butcher whose hands are covered in blood, grasshoppers staring through windows, a trip to Target and his observations there, a willow tree's death — the latter of which is personified well. "You fell only when you were ready/I missed the crash/the noise, the squirrel trauma./You missed the fence,/the garage, fell harmlessly/after all your looming,/ a piteous serpent, a bark-bellied corpse," he writes in Broken Tree.
Lovely metaphors and similes are throughout the stanzas filled with vivid imagination and images strung together randomly and as well as carefully thought out.
The revival of poetry in Rutherford, Williams' home town, began when poet John J. Trause, along with Jane Fisher, director of the Rutherford Public Library, founded the William Carlos Williams Poetry Cooperative of Southern Bergen County. Trause ran monthly readings at the Williams Center, featuring poets from the tri-state area as well as further afield. The group meets on the first Wednesday of each month for free workshops at borough hall, and is open to all. Monthly readings are held at GainVille Café.
Don Zirilli lives in Sussex County with his wife Colleen, two dogs, three cats and a fish.

RWB Workshop Poem of the Week – Sept. 30, 2015October 2, 2015
John Barrale
Home from Alaska
Last night, we ate fish.
I bit into a fried back
and thought of how like a thousand bee stings
the rough suck of a bear's teeth must feel
when the salmon is caught.
The moment is frozen, indifferent
and so alive.
I didn't see this but can still hear the splash.
Glaciers calve. I did see one do this.
It was more sound than show.
A gunshot with nobody killed.
I remember gulping real cold, the unsullied freshness
blessing my lungs, but, like the bear, indifferent.
(I would later develop bronchitis.)
Still, I could give my eyes to the stinging brightness,
my heart to an uncluttered country, my intellect
to blankness. Yet we returned to the dampness,
came home to the melted ground
where our lives have rooted.
Here the loneliness is regular, and death
something scheduled for the future.
Soft sounds lull us, the night filled
with familiar sounds, the kitchen tap dripping,
a car door opening or closing.
There the wind howls. Chilling. Ungovernable. A bear.
Here we speak the language of machines,
and my refrigerator has an ice maker.
It's attached to a copper coil.
Makes ice cubes like babies.
They clink when they fall.
Mini glaciers.
RWB Workshop Poem of the Week – Sept. 23, 2015September 24, 2015
Richard Greene
Summer's End
This morning,
for the first time in months,
it was cool enough
that I felt like wearing something
next to my skin.
All the summer's haze had gathered
into a few small clouds
hung out like newly-washed sheets,
and migrant swans came down
on the wings of the wind.
WCW – Launch of The Red Wheelbarrow Poets #8September 21, 2015
Friday, September 25, 2015, 7 p.m.
With Musical Guest Corina Bartra
GainVille Cafe
Seventeen Ames Avenue, Rutherford NJ
Wednesday, October 7, 2015, 7 p.m.
Williams Center for the Arts
One Williams Plaza, Rutherford NJ
The Red Wheelbarrow Poets will launch the gorgeous 8th edition of their yearly publication, The Rutherford Red Wheelbarrow, at readings at GainVille Café Friday, Sept. 25 (with musical guest Corina Bartra), and at the Williams Center Wednesday, Oct. 7. Both events are in Rutherford and start at 7 PM.
The book, pronounced the best of the eight in the series by editor Jim Klein, features a stunning cover by Don Zirilli and the poetry and prose of 40 area writers who have either participated in the RWP's long-running weekly poetry workshop or who have read their work at the Williams Center or GainVille Café in the past year.
Interior drawings have been supplied by poet and artist Melanie Klein. Claudia Serea provided the cover design. John Barrale and Mark Fogarty are managing editors of the book.
The overall theme of the book again is Dr. Williams' observation that the epic is the local fully realized. Many of the writers in the volume adhere to Williams' groundbreaking poetic philosophy of writing about the everyday in vibrant, "live" language.
This year's featured poet is also Don Zirilli. He is a New Jersey poet and publisher who is the owner of not one but two wheelbarrows. Don has also contributed four short essays on the work of Dr. Williams to the book.
The revival of poetry in Rutherford, Dr. Williams' home town, began when poet John J. Trause, along with Jane Fisher, director of the Rutherford Public Library, founded the Williams Carlos Williams Poetry Cooperative of Southern Bergen County. From 2006 through 2012, Trause ran the monthly readings at the Williams Center, featuring poets from the tri-state area as well as from further afield. This First Wednesday series now is run by the "Gang of Five" (Claudia Serea, John Barrale, Don Zirilli, Zorida Mohammed and Anton Yakovlev). Mark Fogarty curates the monthly reading series at GainVille, which started in 2009.
The RWP weekly poetry workshop at Rutherford Borough Hall, now in its ninth year, is run by Jim Klein, the leader of the Red Wheelbarrow Poets. It is free and open to all local poets.
Both the Williams Center and the GainVille readings offer an open mic to poets who are also invited to submit their work for next year's publication. Copies of the book will be on sale at both events and are also available online at http://www.lulu.com/shop/red-wheelbarrow-poets/the-red-wheelbarrow-8/paperback/product-22346521.html.
RWB Workshop Poem of the Week – Sept. 16, 2015September 18, 2015
Janet Kolstein
Gleaning Time
The audience is everywhere.
A city's breath breathing on your neck
and mumbling strange allegations
in your ear,
still searching for that jeweled crown,
or laurel wreath.
Ornamental sword,
chest of metals,
scarlet sash.
I envision the film opening with his last lover
prone on the floor of the church's aged stones,
her crinolined dress billowing out,
his encrypted corpse moldering deep below.
Are you comfortable in your clothes yet?
In your skin?
The elevator takes me and shakes me,
wipes the forest from my face.
She leaned down and kissed him on the cheek.
If that's not a sign,
I don't know what is.
There was a time
when someone cared
if my feet got cold,
or wet.
The clock on the old bank building
was frozen at six o'clock,
but we shop for vases
under a celedon dome.
Each century conveys a shambles:
dried mums,
half-eaten bones,
a concubines's broken nails.

How a famous classic keno ticket was manipulated by cheatersMay 03, 2011 6:00 AM by Keno Lil
This is the tale about how a famous classic keno ticket was manipulated by cheaters to steal a few dollars from keno games.
The 4-way-10, when played nowadays, is usually marked using 13 numbers, grouped 3-3-3-3-1. In this form it is a simple, playable ticket, easy to mark and to check for winners. In essence it is a 4-way-9, with an added king that works on all four ways to make 10. In this sense the king is a field of one. It is unusual to have a field smaller than the rest of the groups on a ticket, but not unheard of.
Some years ago the security at the keno game, (the measures taken to prevent cheating by players and employees) consisted mainly of a locked box similar to a mail box. It was made of glass or clear plastic and the tickets were dropped in before the call of the game.
The tickets were not photographed as in the 70s and 80s, or recorded electronically as they are today. In order to pay any large winners (at most games $50 or more) the box had to be unlocked and the inside ticket checked. Smaller winners were paid as a matter of efficiency according to the player's copy of the ticket. This was the vulnerability that was exploited by cheaters.
Just imagine a cheater playing a 4-way-10, marked 3-3-3-3-1. He is careful to mark his ticket in a manner such that the final group of three cannot easily be circled; it is scattered around the ticket.
The cheater, having paid $1.20 for the ticket, hits 3-2-0-0-1, and thus wins a 6-out-of-10 for a winner of $6. The cheater, being one, is not satisfied with this catch. He goes outside to his car, where his trunk is splendidly equipped with a keno brush and a supply of Chinese ink.
He adds a winning spot to one of the groups of 3. He now has a catch of 4-2-0-0-1 on a ticket grouped 4-3-3-3-1. It is a mathematical quirk that a 4-3-3-3-1 is just as much a 4-way-10 as the 3-3-3-3-1. Seven-out-of-10 at 30¢ per way pays $45. The cheater collects his ill-gotten gains and hurries down the road.
A few days later the cheater is back, playing the same 3-3-3-3-1 4-way-10. This time he hits nothing, but never fear! He goes out to the car, and adds three winning spots to the final group of three, and hits another $45! It is also a mathematical quirk that a 6-3-3-3-1 is just as much a 4-way-10 as the 3-3-3-3-1 and the 4-3-3-3-1.
The next day he comes back, and although his luck is bad, his ingenuity is at an all time high! He hits nothing, but this time adds four winning spots to the final 3-spot on his ticket. Quirky, for sure, but a 7-3-3-3-1 is without question a 4-way-10! Our cheater pockets another $45.
Amazingly, this is not the end of the possible manipulations. To the original 3-3-3-3-1 the cheater could add three winning spots to one group of three and one winning spot to another group of three for a 4-way-10 composed 6-4-3-3-1.
The cheater could also add two winning spots to a group of three and add an entire group of two winning spots for a 4-way-10, 5-3-3-3-2-1! He might, if sufficiently bold, add three winning spots to one group of three, and another three spots to another group of three, producing the 4-way-10, 6-6-3-3-1!
He could even add three winning spots to a group of three, and three more spots to the king group, and come up with a 6-4-3-3-3 ticket, which is also a 4-way-10!
The 4-way-10 is quirky. It is open to more manipulation than any other ticket I have ever encountered. In fact, I have discovered 114 different ways to mark a 4-way-10 with 20 numbers or less. Of course, computerized keno has eliminated some of the chance that cheaters can work these kinds of scams at the keno game. But now you know some of the history.
Well, that's it for now. Good luck! I'll see you in line at firstname.lastname@example.com

Solid Documents, a developer of document reconstruction and archiving software, announced that Adobe Systems Incorporated (Adobe) has licensed the Solid Framework SDK for Adobe Acrobat X. Adobe Acrobat X takes advantage of Solid Documents' PDF to Word and Excel conversion capabilities, allowing Acrobat X users to easily reuse and repurpose PDF content.
"After reviewing the available options, we chose to use Solid Framework technology for the conversion of PDF files to Microsoft® Word and Excel in Adobe Acrobat X. The document reconstruction quality is very good and the Solid Documents team has been a pleasure to work with on this project," said Aman Deep Nagpal, Senior Product Manager, Acrobat Solutions, at Adobe.
"We're excited that Adobe is using Solid Framework as part of Adobe Acrobat X," said Michael Cartwright, founder and CEO of Solid Documents. "Reviews highlighting Acrobat X's conversion features are already in and the results are very positive."
The pre-release version of Acrobat X's PDF to Word and Excel features using Solid Framework's core conversion technology received the following rave reviews:
"The folks at Adobe told me that the export functionality of Acrobat X has been vastly improved. I can vouch for the export to Word being improved. I recently tried to export a text based PDF that had been filed in federal court, with the goal of copying some of the text to use as sticky notes. I wasn't able to do it with Acrobat 9 because of some issue with font compatibility. I opened up Acrobat X and gave it a try, and it converted the 22 page document in less than 10 seconds." -Ernest Svenson, Writer, PDF for Lawyers, "Adobe announces Acrobat; my quick review" 10/18/2010

As enterprises capture more and more data of all types – structured, semi-structured, and unstructured – data discovery requirements for business intelligence (BI), Big Data, and predictive analytics initiatives grow more complex.

Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers. One aspect of the current public clouds that is slowing this cloud migration is cloud lock-in.

Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...
