Thanksgiving/Black Friday paid search data suggests mobile revolution
Thanksgiving and Black Friday data is starting to filter through and key findings from Kenshoo's analysis of retail paid search reveals big increases in click volume and retailer spend.
According to Aaron Goldman, Kenshoo CMO, shopping behavior has not simply migrated to mobile, "it's a full on revolution".
His comments come as part of an announcement about paid search spending during the recent holiday of Thanksgiving and the store-frenzy day that is Black Friday.
According to Kenshoo's recently released paid search data, mobile devices accounted for a much more significant share of spend, clicks and revenue this year than last. In November, 2012, through to Cyber Monday, 2012, marketers spent 79.5% of their paid search budgets on PCs such as laptops, desktops and notebooks. Just 11.8% was allocated to mobile phones and 8.7% to tablets.
This year, Kenshoo found the rate of change to be "astounding". While the vast majority of paid search ad spend was allocated to PCs, it fell by 24.1% to 60.3% while mobile phone and tablet budget spend grew significantly. This year, 21.2% of total paid search spend went on mobile phones and 18.5% on tablets, a year-on-year rise of 79.1% and 113.6% respectively.
"With phones and tablets accounting for nearly 40% of all paid search ad spend on Thanksgiving and Black Friday, it's clear marketers have multi-device strategies in place to lure consumers wherever and whenever they're shopping," said Goldman.

What is a 'Remittance'
A remittance is the funds an expatriate sends to their country of origin via wire, mail, or online transfer. These peer to peer transfers of funds across borders are economically significant for many countries that receive them.
BREAKING DOWN 'Remittance'
Since the year 2000, remittances have played an increasingly large role in the economies of small and developing countries. Since the late 1990s, remittances have exceeded development aid, and can often make up a full third of a country's GDP, for example, Nepal and Maldova. Remittance payments make up for a substantial amount of the flow of capital between countries. In 2014, $583 billion in USD was transferred between countries, $436 Billion of which was received by developing countries.
The countries receiving the largest share of remittances are the BRIC nations China and India. Those countries received $69.97 and $59.49 billion dollars in 2013 by 2015 estimates.
Remittances are seen as an important part of form of disaster relief, and exceed official development assistance (ODA). Those living in a country struck by a disaster benefit from receiving money via remittances, especially when the disaster is of a kind that has temporarily put people out of work and tied up money. Remittances are also seen as a way to get those living in poorer countries to get bank accounts, in turn helping to promote economic development in a region.
G8 and The World Bank
Remittances play an important role in the growth of developing countries. In 2004, at the G8 summit held in Sea Island Georgia, member countries agreed to take on the problem of the relative high cost of moving funds across borders.
In 2008, the World Bank ended up establishing a database where people could compare prices of different transfer services, so as to make a more informed decision on how to transfer their funds back to their family and loved ones. The thinking behind the database was that, along with creating a more informed customer, it would encourage the money transfer industry to be more competitive on their pricing.
In 2009 the G8 set the goal of reducing the cost of remittances by 5% in as many years. The World Bank responded by helping to establish smaller regional databases using clear and objective methodology to measure the price of different transfer services.
Since the World Bank's database was set up, a good number of remittance services have emerged online, like remit2india, xoom.com, and Azimo, which all provide fast and cheap services. However, many see more work to be done. At a G20 meeting in 2011, Bill Gates argued for the reduction of transfer costs. By Gates Foundation estimates, cutting fees from 10% to 5% could 'unlock' up to $15 billion a year in poor and developing countries.
Latin American and Caribbean countries received a total of 66.5 Billion in remittances in the year 2007, more than both foreign direct aid and development aid. Three quarters of that money came from migrant laborers working inside the United States.
The Philippines received the second largest amount of remittances, receiving transfers amounting to 21.3 billion in 2010. President Joseph Estrada honored those working outside the Philippines, whose remittances make up nearly 9% of the countries GDP, by declaring the year 2000 the year of the "Overseas Filipino Worker."
Remittances to countries in Africa are an important part of those economies, but the numbers are hard to track. A paper from University of Iowa's Center for International Finance and Development put their estimate at $40 Billion USD sent from 20 to 30 million African immigrant laborers annually. Some countries limit remittances to wire transfers to banks, and banks usually end up limiting the services they use to specific money transfer companies. The 2010 World Bank study broke down the amount each country received, putting Nigeria at the top with $10 billion, Sudan at $3.2 billion, Kenya at $1.8 billion, Senegal at $1.2 billion.
Immigrant households in the United States budget 10% of their income towards remittances, which in turn make up between 50 and 80% of the household income of those receiving the money. Up to 80% of immigrants living in New York State send remittances back to their home countries, more than any other state in the U.S. California, Texas, Illinois, and New Jersey all see high rates of immigrant families sending remittances. Remittances from the U.S. to Mexico and other countries in South American have been in decline. Before the Great Recession in 2008, remittances were as high as $69.2 billion, nearly $10 billion more than 2011 where families sent $58.9 billion.
The actual methodology that countries use to record the amount of money people are receiving via remittances is rarely made public. While the majority of value transfers occur via web or wire transfers where they can be more easily accounted for, a fair amount of money is transferred in ways that are harder to track. This has raised concerns among financial intelligence units that remittances are one of the ways in which money can be laundered, or violent activities like terrorism sponsored.
The chief legislation regarding international transfer of funds in the U.S. is in title III of the embattled Patriot Act, passed in the wake of the 9/11 attacks in the U.S., and the Money Remittances Improvement Act of 2014. The overwhelming majority or financial transfers from migrant labor are no cause for national security concern.

PC for R&D unit in CISF for better security techniques
Ghaziabad (UP): Home Minister P Chidambaram
Wednesday advocated a "brawn and brains" approach to be adopted by
the security forces for protecting vital installations like
airports, space and nuclear establishments.
Speaking as the chief guest on the 41st Raising Day of
the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) -- which guards
vital infrastructure across the country -- he said the force
should set up a Research and Development unit comprising
"highly qualified guys" from various streams of engineering.
This group should look around the world and understand
the techniques they use for ensuring security, he said.
"CISF is protecting atomic energy establishments, iconic
establishments, therefore it is very important that we had the
latest in science and technology for securing these very vital
installations. What applies to an airport may not apply to an
atomic energy establishment. What applies to a space
establishment will not apply elsewhere.
"Therefore it is important that the CISF sets up a small
unit... say highly qualified guys can be recruited directly...
Physics masters (or) graduate or engineering masters (or)
graduate and then that unit must start looking all over the
world (to see) how industrial and other establishments
elsewhere in the world are protected," he said.
Pointing out that there is a difference between CISF and
other para-military forces as the former is really a "security
establishment", Chidambaram said, "So, I think here brawn and
brains are required."
"The CISF is not like CRPF, the BSF, marching with guns
into a battle kind of a thing, they are really a security
establishment. Therefore, I think there is a certain
difference between CISF and other para-military forces,"
Chidambaram said.
He said this initiative of establishing R&D units should
be taken up by other security forces also.
"It will apply to others (forces) also... Each one
requires science and technology but I think CISF (requires
more) because of the myriad responsibilities it handles. It
different kinds of situation. I think CISF requires R&D and
today I know that other airports are protected slightly
differently. Each one (para-military forces) should develop
R&D," he said.
The R&D centres should develop new ideas, Chidambaram

'Brandi's drunk, on Xanax and all over my husband': Lisa Vanderpump's fury at bikini-clad Glanville's poolside antics
She recently raised eyebrows by drunkenly getting married in Las Vegas.
But in the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Brandi Glanville annoyed one of her co-stars by openly flirting with the woman's husband.
Lisa Vanderpump looked on in horror last night as Brandi, 39, locked lips with Ken Todd, her husband of 30 years.
Kiss kiss: Brandi Glanville gets very friendly with Ken Todd, the husband of one of her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' co-stars, Linda Vanderpump, in the latest episode
And - as if to add insult to injury - the blonde joked that the California socialite was pleased that she showed Ken some attention.
Brandi brazenly said: 'I think Lisa's not really jealous.
'I think she's like: "Please touch him so I don't have to".'
Settling her nerves: Brandi said that she used to take a 'roofie' to get over her fear of flying
Taking in the view: Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Camille Grammer, Kyle Richards and Lisa Vanderpump
It seems that the former model wasn't too far from the truth as Lisa went on to say: 'Brandi's drunk and she's on Xanax and she's all over my husband...
'Bloody hell. I'm going to have to put out tonight.'
The housewives' antics were filmed last year on a beach in Hawaii.
Teeny weeny: Brandi's skimpy bikini was the topic of conversation on the latest episode of the reality TV hit
The cast and crew flew out there to celebrate Mauricio Umansky's birthday, the husband of Kyle Richards.
Brandi sunbathed on the beach wearing a skimpy beige bikini, which Lisa commented on.
Her attire was not lost on the married mum, who said: 'That is not a bikini. That's butt floss.'
She also said: 'For God's sake, could she not run that bikini farther up her a**?'
Lisa didn't hold back and made another crass comment, saying: 'I'm not going to beat around the bush.
'It was see-through. There was no bush.'
Brandi - who was married to actor Eddie Cibrian - gave her cast mates plenty of things to talk about.
In addition to trying to get Ken to take off his shirt, she also revealed how she used to overcome her fear of flying.
She openly admitted that she used to self-medicate before she flew, taking the date rate drug Rohypnol.
The mother-of-two said: 'I was so afraid to fly I used to roofie myself.
'It was awesome.
'I wish I could still do that but it's against the law.'
Kyle's sister Kim wasn't on the trip to Hawaii. But Brandi still spoke about her boyfriend Ken Blumenfeld.
Brandi said: 'I said he was like a bull mastiff.'
And the woman whose husband left her for country singer Leann Rimes, urged her cast mates to have fun.
She told them: 'Loosen up kitty cats. We're on vacation.'

CRYORIG R1 Ultimate CPU Cooler Review
While it may seem like CRYORIG popped up out of nowhere, it seems the company and their products have been an idea and concept for a long time; it has just taken them a while to get all the ducks in a row to launch the company successfully. By visiting their web page, you will also find out that they are absorbing people from some of the larger and greatly successful companies out there (like Thermalright, Phanteks, Prolimatech, as well as others), and are cooperatively putting together in a brain trust of sorts to try to deliver the best products available on the market today.
It also seems as if they are very humble with their roots in the overclocking scene, when top-tier products were coolers like the Thermaltake Blue Orb. With that in mind, it does seem that CRYORIG is equally as interested in feedback from users and the rest of the market, to be able to develop and deliver what they believe are some of the best coolers available on the market today.
What really strikes me as a reviewer is their ability to take that basic cooler design that anyone could build, and take it to the next level in many ways that a lot of companies do not address. Once you see these coolers, it really makes you wonder why these ideas have not been tried before. At this point we won't get into much detail on these ideas, but they encompass things such as DirectCompress Soldering, Heatsink Displacement Optimization, Jet Fin Acceleration System, Heat pipe Convex Align, and for the fans, they have High Precision Low Noise (HPLN) sleeve bearings. As we progress through the review, we will be sure to point out these systems, and explain how they make this cooler design more efficient than some of the more plain designs available on the market.
The cooler we are looking at today is one of two versions that will be released to the market soon. We are looking at their flag ship version today, the R1 Ultimate, but there is also the R1 Universal, which uses a thin fan on the front to allow the cooler to fit in more systems. Other than the R1 Ultimate having the thicker fan on the front, the only other way to tell them apart is the color of the fan shrouds; on the Ultimate they are black, and on the Universal, they are white.
While we have all seen a dual-tower CPU cooler before, you have never seen one with as much attention to detail, or as many "tricks" applied to the design; both of which allow this cooler to have the potential to be the best of the best in dual-tower designs. At this point, I would strongly urge you to continue reading to find out what all of these systems are, and what they do for the end result. You may just be surprised at what CRYORIG has delivered.

Click here to print the obituary below
Jacob Close
Jacob "Jack"
Jacob Close, Sylvania, Ohio, passed away Tuesday, April 22, 2014, at the age of 94. He was born May 6, 1919, in Toledo to the late Max and Dora Close, who immigrated from Russia in 1912. The fourth of six children, Jacob was a precocious child who started kindergarten at age 4 and excelled in academics. He grew up in the Roaring '20s, helping out around his father's shoe repair shop, playing in neighborhood football games, and roller skating the streets of Toledo. His family worked hard six days a week, but always made time for Sunday dinners and occasional picnics and trips to the zoo.
Jacob was a cheerleader at Scott High School, and graduated in 1936. After graduation, he worked as a grocery store manager. In 1941, he joined the U.S.
and served as an infantryman in the 37th Infantry Division, or "Buckeye Division" of Ohio's National Guard. Jacob began his military career as an enlisted man, and was commissioned as an officer through Officer Candidate School.
World War II
he deployed to the Pacific Theater and fought in the battle for Bougainville in the Northern Solomon Islands, and in several battles on Luzon during the liberation of the Philippines. In combat his exceptional valor and leadership earned him the
Bronze Star
with two Oak Leaf Clusters, the
Purple Heart
, the Meritorious Service Medal, and the Combat Infantryman Badge. He remained in U.S. Army Reserve Forces after the war, retiring as a Colonel in 1972. During that time he served in several capacities at the 2087th Toledo U.S. Army Reserve School, eventually becoming the school's Commander.
After the war, Jacob was employed at A. Bentley & Sons construction company as a time-keeper. Over the next 32 years he worked his way up to Treasurer and Vice-President, and was instrumental in the company's conversion to the use of computers in the late 1960s. After retiring in 1982, he enjoyed photography, teaching his pet parrot to talk, attending Toledo Rocket football and basketball games, and playing golf with family and friends.
Surviving is his beloved wife, Elizabeth "Betty" Jane (Houston) of 72 years (married March 28, 1942). Also surviving are children, Kenneth Robert, Sylvania, OH and Gale Ann Mentzer, Toledo, OH; as well daughter-in-law, Patricia (Masterson) Close and son-in-law, Charles "Brett" Mentzer. Surviving grandchildren, who brought joy to his life, include Michelle (Close) Murphy and her husband Brian, Sylvania, OH, Donna Close, Toledo, Air Force Staff Sergeant Carol (Close) Walker and her husband, Matthew, Dayton, OH, Samuel Mentzer, North Canton, OH and Simon Mentzer, Herndon, VA. His lone surviving sibling is his younger sister, Rose (Close) Weiss, Northridge, CA. Preceding him in death were his daughter, Patti Jane (Grant); son, Donald Allen, and grandson, Peter Michael Mentzer.
Jacob was an active member of Fairgreen Presbyterian Church where he served several years as an elder. He and Betty loved to travel and made several trips across the country as well as internationally. Most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren to whom he was an inspiration for hard work, determination, keeping a sense of humor, and maintaining high moral standards. In 1999, he published his military memoirs, dedicated to his grandchildren, Memoirs of a Groundpounder, in which he chronicled his World War II experiences.
To celebrate his life, consider donations to the Army Emergency Relief Fund
Viewing will be held at the Robert H. Wick/ Wisniewski Funeral Home, 2426 N. Reynolds Road, Toledo, Ohio on Friday, April 25, from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Funeral services will be held at Fairgreen Church, 3220 Laskey Road, Toledo, Ohio 43613, at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 26.

Xie, Yu, and Haiyan Zhu. 2009. "Do Sons or Daughters Give More Money to Parents in Urban China?" Journal of Marriage and Family, 71(1): 174-186.
The patriarchal structure of the traditional Chinese family suggests that sons, more than daughters, provide financial support to elderly parents. The norm of receiving support in old age primarily from sons, however, may have been undermined by dramatic demographic, economic, and cultural changes occurring over the last several decades in China, especially in urban areas. We examine gender differences in adult children's financial support to parents using a recent data set ("Study of Family Life in Urban China") collected in 1999 (N = 1,801). The results show that married daughters, especially those living with parents, provide more financial support to parents than married sons do. This significant gender difference can be primarily explained by daughters' resources, such as education and income.

Stonington - For the past four years, Heather and Adam Hudson have gotten up several times each night to check their son Christian's blood sugar levels.
They had no choice because if his blood sugar falls too low, he could slip into a coma. Christian has been a Type I diabetic since he was four.
But now that 7-week-old Malachi has arrived in their Pawcatuck home, the Hudsons likely will be sleeping through the night.
The fox red retriever has been trained by a Virginia company to be a diabetic alert dog, able to detect the scent that diabetics give off when their blood sugar levels are too high or too low. The dog then repeatedly lifts its paw or touches its nose to a person's leg, depending on whether the odor indicates high or low blood sugar. If the diabetic does not take action, the dog then goes to another person until someone responds.
On Tuesday, his first night in the Hudson's home, Malachi noticed Christian's blood sugar level was low and alerted the Hudsons by loudly scratching on his crate in Christian's room.
"I don't like to be dramatic, but this is lifesaving," Heather Hudson said Wednesday afternoon as Malachi played nearby. "It's just given us a sense of relief and security."
Malachi will not accompany Christian to West Broad Street School this fall, but his trainer Andy Harrison, from Warren Retrievers in Orange, Va., said the dog still should be able to detect whether Christian is having a problem at the school a half-mile away, and react accordingly.
Harrison, who had trained other types of dogs for nine years before working with diabetic alert dogs, said he initially had doubts about the breed's amazing capabilities. But, he said, dogs have "diagnosed" people with diabetes before they knew they had the disease. Others have been trained to call 911 if no one is available to help.
Harrison is spending three days with the Hudsons, helping Malachi get adjusted. Over the next two years, he will keep in close contact with them about Malachi's ongoing training and will make periodic visits here to check on his progress.
In a few months, Malachi will be able to bring Christian a juice box from the kitchen if his blood sugar level falls to low. He also will be able to retrieve a glucose monitor.
"The idea is for the family to sleep in peace," he said.
The Hudsons also plan to bring Malachi to Christian's lacrosse games so he can monitor Christian while he's playing.
"He'll give us much better control over the management of Christian's diabetes," Heather Hudson said.
She learned about diabetic alert dogs by doing some research on the Internet, then contacted Guardian Angel Service Dogs, a nonprofit organization whose president, Dan Warren, owns Warren Retrievers.
A friend who works for Connecticut Special Wishes put in a request and the organization donated $5,000 towards the purchase and training of the dog. The Hudson's continue to hold local fundraisers to obtain the rest of the money.
All donations are tax deductible and can made to Guardian Angel Service Dogs (tax ID number 27-3778997) via credit card at www.guardianangelservicedogs.org/home.html or by calling Dan Warren at (804) 883-6931. A check made payable to "GASD" with a note stating "For the Benefit of Christian Hudson" may be mailed Guardian Angel Service Dogs, Attn: Dan Warren, P.O. Box 910, Orange, VA 22960.

- Telefonica's new global convergent video platform, based on the Microsoft Mediaroom product suite, will power its pay TV and OTT services across its Operating Businesses, with first deployments in Brazil, Chile and Spain.
MADRID and REDMOND, Washington, Nov. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Telefonica Digital and Microsoft Corp. today announced a multiyear strategic agreement to create a new Global Video Platform (GVP) for all video entertainment services across Telefonica's Operating Businesses. Based on key Microsoft technologies including the Microsoft Mediaroom platform, the GVP is unique in delivering TV services over both managed (IPTV) and nonmanaged ("over the top") networks, at global scale, to a range of consumer devices. The first GVP deployments are taking place in Brazil, Chile and Spain, and Telefonica anticipates extending the deployment of TV services based on the GVP to a number of its other Operating Businesses over the next few years.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO )
"Video is a fast-growing market, and we already play a leading role in delivering Pay TV services to customers in Europe and Latin America. This new platform allows us to reflect the deep and rapid changes happening in this market. It offers the ease and convenience of a global, convergent platform while maintaining flexibility over content for our local businesses. Most important, it allows us to meet customer demands for access to video content on an ever- expanding range of devices," said Vivek Dev, director of Digital Services, Telefonica Digital.
The GVP, and its use of Mediaroom, will enable Telefonica to deliver to consumers high-performance, differentiated and feature-rich TV services over both its managed high-speed broadband networks as well as "over-the-top" nonmanaged broadband networks. It provides a range of advanced features to TV subscribers, including time-shifting and multiscreen among others, enabling Telefonica to take advantage of its multidevice capabilities.
"Telefonica is a close partner to Microsoft, and the Global Video Platform, based on the Microsoft Mediaroom platform, will enable them to grow their business and reach new audiences," said Tom Gibbons, corporate vice president, Operator TV Business, Microsoft. "This new agreement focused on Telefonica's GVP further extends our alliance in the world of TV and video entertainment to a range of screens throughout the home and on the go, and the benefits will be enjoyed by many millions of people globally. Through its use of IP-based broadband networks and the Microsoft Mediaroom platform, Telefonica's next-generation TV services are poised to delight and entertain millions of consumers across their markets in Europe and Latin America."
These services can be enjoyed by consumers on a range of devices inside and outside the home, including set-top boxes, Xbox 360, tablets and smartphones. Because the Mediaroom platform includes key technologies such as Microsoft PlayReady, Internet Information Services Smooth Streaming and Microsoft Silverlight, the delivery of TV services across these various networks and to multiple screen types can all be done via one common technology infrastructure. This is expected to result in significant efficiencies for Telefonica in time to market, cost of delivery and overall scale.
Earlier this month, Telefonica launched its premium Internet Protocol television (IPTV) service in Brazil, which follows a similar launch in Chile in October. Both services, Vivo TV Fibra in Brazil and Movistar IPTV in Chile, are the first IPTV deployments that take advantage of the new GVP platform and its capabilities, offering an exceptional user experience for their Fiber to the Home customers. In November 2011, Telefonica and Microsoft launched the first service enabled by the GVP: Movistar Imagenio on Xbox 360. It provides subscribers with 12 linear channels focused on sports, including the Spanish First Soccer League (Liga BBVA) under Canal+ Liga Channel.
During the past 14 months, the Microsoft Mediaroom platform has continued to scale its deployments and services, surpassing 11 million consumer households and 22 million set-top boxes across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, further securing its position as the world's most deployed IPTV platform.*

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.
