Online video service Netflix reports $71mln Q2 profits
July 22, 2014 - 14:17 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Online video service Netflix reported profits of $71mln in the second quarter, more than double compared with the same period a year ago.
According to BBC News, the company said revenue from its streaming content service rose nearly 50% to $1.2bn, compared to $837m a year earlier.
Netflix said it added 1.69 million users during the period from March to June. The streaming video firm now has 50 million users in over 40 countries.
Netflix has sought to upend the television industry by commissioning original content for its streaming-video platform and taking on established brands like HBO. Viewers have reacted positively to shows like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black.
Last year, the company's original programming was nominated for 14 Emmy TV awards, winning three, and this year its programming garnered a record 31 nominations.
However, the company has recently suffered some setbacks in the U.S., as it has battled with internet service providers (ISPs) such as Verizon over who must pay for the increasing pressure that streaming video puts on download speeds, the BBC says.
Netflix chief executive Reed Hastings has been a vocal opponent of Comcast's proposed $45bn purchase of Time Warner Cable, fearing it would lead to too much consolidation in the industry.
In a letter to shareholders announcing the earnings, Mr Hastings wrote, "Our focus on strong net neutrality, including interconnection, is about preventing large ISPs from holding our joint customers hostage with poor performance to extract payments from us."
Shares in Netflix - which are already up 22% for the year - rose nearly 2% in trading after US stock markets had closed.

Sitting on the gorgeous east coast of Spain, Benidorm holidays will offer endless excitement and indulgence to those holidaying amid the sparkling waters and soft sands of this vibrant and rejuvenating resort.
Blue seas, sizzling Mediterranean weather and pulsating nightlife go a long way to characterising the resort of Benidorm, hugging the seaside of the beautiful Costa Blanca and ensuring a plethora of activities for holidaying families to engage with, while others will find relaxation just as accessible. Five kilometres of sandy beaches may be enough to tempt visitors to this corner of Spain, while water parks, delicious tapas and intriguing cultural features make holidays to Benidorm as diverse as they are fulfilling. The resort is located close by to various other highlights of this region of Spain, including the colourful resort of Alicante, crammed with culture and history, as well as plenty of action and indulgence.
The resort boats two glorious Blue Flag beaches – Playa de Levante and Playa de Poniente, with each offering something different. The former is where the heart of the action is, with a myriad of water sports and a diverse crowd of holidaymakers enjoying the beach. Poniente is more sedate, offering up a great spot to relax and unwind.
If you'd rather explore these stunningly clear waters on your Benidorm holidays, take a trip to the old fishing town of Moraira. Here, you'll be welcomed with the opportunity to dive beneath the sea and catch a glimpse of the teeming marine life that can be found.
Benidorm is fantastically family-friendly, with plenty of attractions for the little ones to enjoy. For a great day out with the kids, head to the Aqualand Water Park in Javea – a high-octane adventure spot crammed full with slides, rides and endless fun.
If you'd rather spend your holidays doing something more relaxing, take yourself away to a spot of serenity by the sea. The picturesque resort of Calpe is only a 20-minute drive from Benidorm and offers a gloriously sandy beach to relax in on hot afternoons, while the calm water provides a great place to cool down.
Of course, holidays in Benidorm are incomplete without partaking in its exuberant nightlife. Whether you fancy lingering over drinks in a nearby beach bar or meandering your way through this resort's buzzing nightclubs, you'll find plenty of places to keep you entertained until sunrise. If you fancy a night out on the town with a different setting, head to nearby Denia. One of the best areas for fiestas, you're sure to find a celebration in this enchanting old town.

We all know that there are some real interesting posts out there that can make for a serious laugh or at least a hearty chuckle, especially when they're quoted out of context. However, if you're going to highlight a real doozey of a humdinger or a mess of mangled logic, please show the original poster or target a minimum level of respect by leaving their name out of any quotes that can reasonably be interpreted as something other than congratulatory. Obviously that also includes not linking back to the original post in those cases. This thread is about having a laugh, not kicking people off the island.
Here's one example to get us started...
As you can see, some of the best zingers still come from the old hands here. In this case I left off the name of the target because this quote is a bit on the harsh side even though it had me in stitches. Ouch!
And some more...
That had me going for a fair bit.
Oh man, I could just keep this up forever.

Well, I'll give it a go, and present for your entertainment a bit of toilet humor.
In a discussion about the raving Naruto fans at her college,
I just thought she found a great way to express her dilemna. Thanks, aya_honda for making me laugh with that one.

Daxomni, I know that the quote you took from Abunai-sama was directed at me, but honestly, I didn't pay any attention .
So you can put the target's name in it

It kind of pains me to admit that the green quoted post above does possess something resembling a point. Savor the last bits of your random insanity so you won't regret it later on? Nice idea.
The act seem almost satirical when the passage is deprived of its context!

Ok, the quote that stucked in my head for quite sometime belongs to Tony K and it was his answer to a thread called Is there gonna be more Fruits Basket?????
Tony K wrote:
The thread was locked (obviously) and I remember that it was at the beginning of my experience on this forum so I had two reactions. The first one: I was amused by his suggestion (criostasis ) The second one: I got scared by the vehement way in which he ended this thread. (I spent since then quite some time on this forum but the fear hasn't left me. )

Sorry, I was feeling a bit tense that day . No real harm meant. But yeah, I've seen a lot of Berserk, Hellsing, Tenjou Tenge, Fruits Basket, Full Metal Panic!, Inu Yasha, and 12 Kingdoms continuation threads asking when the next season will come out.
In the special case of Hellsing, though, you have the OAVs now. While not everyone may have known at first, it does prove that a continuation or a new start from scratch can happen.
The point is that people need to learn to be more patient and accept things in life for what they are. If it happens, it happens. That's my philosophy, and that's why I always end up locking those types of threads. Again, I apologize if I scared you .

With 9th Cloud Expo at Silicon Valley's Santa Clara Convention Center now finished, Cloud Computing Journal asked a variety of industry stakeholders what their Top Three takeaways were from the event, now that the many thousands of delegates are back at their desks and their companies, leveraging the knowledge and the insights that they gained through the extensive technical/strategic program and the huge number of booths on the Expo floor.
- View the Photo Album from 9th Cloud Expo | Cloud Expo 2011 Silicon Valley
- SUBMIT TODAY your proposal for a technical or strategy session to 10th Cloud Expo | Cloud Expo 2012 New York (June 11-14, 2012)
Here are the Top Three according to Rich Wolski - CTO of Eucalyptus Systems:
The busy Eucalyptus Systems booth at 9th Cloud Expo, Santa Clara, CA
Takeaway #1: Private Clouds are now very real
Private clouds have transitioned from a "promising technology" to "growing market" in the business cycle. I spent far more time speaking with customers and potential customers than with technologists.
Takeaway #2: Value of the entire Cloud ecosystem is becoming clearer
The focus of attention shifting from a search for the next big cloud innovation to a search for a way to harness the software ecosystem. That is, rather than trying to figure out the "winning" technology, the cloud community is now realizing that the totality of the ecosystem (and not individual components within it) is where the real value lies.
Takeaway #3: Cost savings from cloud model now better understood
The difference between a virtualized data center and a data center managed as a private cloud is now part of the corporate IT strategy in some vertical segments of the market. Companies that previously believed that virtualized servers were all that are are necessary to streamline the IT process have realized that it is the cloud model itself (and not just virtualization) that really provides the cost savings.
The cloud market growth today is largely in public clouds. While there is a lot of spend in IT departments in virtualization, these aren't yet translating into a true "cloud" experience within the enterprise. What is stopping the growth of the "private cloud" market? In his general session at 18th Cloud Expo, Nara Rajagopalan, CEO of Accelerite, explored the challenges in deploying, managing, and getting adoption for a private cloud within an enterprise. What are the key differences between wh...

The Internet of Things will challenge the status quo of how IT and development organizations operate. Or will it? Certainly the fog layer of IoT requires special insights about data ontology, security and transactional integrity. But the developmental challenges are the same: People, Process and Platform and how we integrate our thinking to solve complicated problems. In his session at 19th Cloud Expo, Craig Sproule, CEO of Metavine, will demonstrate how to move beyond today's coding paradigm ...

Jinfonet Software, a provider of Java reporting solutions, on Thursday unveiled JReport 10. This new version adds rich visualization and interactive reporting to a robust, agile BI platform, providing embedded operational reporting to developers and self-service reporting to end users.
JReport 10 brings Agile Business Intelligence to the next level with rich visualization features. Web 2.0 self-service reporting allows highly interactive reports to be accessible across the enterprise with superior performance and scalability.
Rich visualization promotes better understanding of data by enabling sophisticated, interactive visual presentation. JReport extends the limits of crosstabs, charting, and dashboards with on-screen filters, cascading parameters and data sharing auto-refresh components, providing a richer user experience. With increased interactive capabilities, more reusable report components, and the ability to visually slice, dice and drill down, rich visualization helps you to get more from your data.
Integrating data with geo-spatial maps allows end-users to see data from a multi-level geographical perspective, with drill down support for further details. JReport's enhanced charting includes multi-axis bullet, combo, gauge, bubble and dozens more, making reports and dashboards more expressive.
JReport's agile business intelligence makes report creation and deployment fast and simple. JReport seamlessly embeds in any Java application, and can connect to any data source, giving immediate access to operational data from the application interface. JReport Server Live provides Web 2.0 self-service reporting, so users can intuitively create multi-component web reports without requiring the assistance of developers. End users can also swiftly modify deployed reports to directly reflect their needs, for example, by adding columns, groups, pivoting and filtering, and quickly switching between different chart types or table styles. JReport's easy to use reporting tools accelerate and streamline the reporting process, enabling users to harness the power of business information without a difficult development process.
JReport Server Live uses AJAX technology to create advanced Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), designed to be more interactive and responsive. With report layout offloaded to the browser, report interaction and on-screen refresh are expedited. The streamlined architecture greatly reduced server workload and communication overhead, making the JReport Server Live extremely scalable and capable of handling a very large user population without performance deterioration.
"Actionable information is the foundation of JReport," said Senior Product Manager Greg Harris. "JReport10 takes maximal advantage of the capabilities of modern browsers and the processing power of client computers to provide a Web 2.0 Rich Internet Application experience for end users while drastically improving scalability."

Gang of armed robbers who repeatedly fired a stun gun at shop manager in £43,000 raid are jailed for a total of 94 years
- David Sadiku, 41, and Kelly Day, 36, posed as a couple selling a Rolex watch
- They conned their way into a pawnbroker's in Ilford and threatened manager
- Duo then let fellow gang members - Paulius Strasunskas, 27, Francis Carbon, 32, Amjit Bharj, 47, and Aamir Kayani, 31 - into the shop
- Manager Maom Margolin shocked ten times with stun gun and pistol whipped
- A female employee was also stunned in the face during raid last July
- Gang jailed for their parts in the robbery, and another raid on a mini-supermarket in east London
- Another member, Michael Carbon, 26, took part in the supermarket heist
A gang of armed robbers who repeatedly fired a stun gun at a pawn shop manager in a £43,000 raid have been jailed for a total of 94 years.
David Sadiku, 41, and Kelly Day, 36, posed as a couple selling a Rolex watch to con their way into a pawnbroker's in Ilford, Essex.
Once inside Maxcroft Securities Ltd, Sadiku pulled out a gun and dragged manager Naom Margolin out of his office while Day let fellow gang members - Paulius Strasunskas, 27, Francis Carbon, 32, Amjit Bharj, 47, and Aamir Kayani, 31 - into the shop.
Gang members: David Sadiku, 41, (left) and Kelly Day, 36, (right) posed as a couple selling a Rolex watch to con their way into a pawnbroker's in Ilford, Essex, before attacking the manager and letting their fellow gang members into the shop
Mr Margolin was shocked up to ten
times with the stun gun and pistol-whipped in the face but managed to press the panic button, while a woman employee was stunned in the face.
The gang escaped with £43,000 worth of cash and jewellery, but were today behind bars after they were foiled during another robbery at a convenience store.
Sadiku and Day pleaded guilty to taking part in the Maxcroft robbery and the others were convicted following a nine-week trial at Old Bailey.
Another man, Michael Carbon, 26, who was involved in the mini-supermarket raid confessed to armed robbery, and was found guilty of a gun charge.
During the raid on July 5, last year Carbon told at staff at Maxcroft 'I will f****** kill you' as he demanded they empty their desks, while Strasunskas demanded: 'Where's the f****** money'.
He then put a stun gun to the face of one of the female members of staff and fired it at point blank range, the court was told.
Threats: Paulius Strasunskas, 27, (left) shouted 'Where's the f****** money' at frightened staff, while Francis Carbon, 32, (right) told at employees at Maxcroft 'I will f****** kill you' as he demanded they empty their desks
'She heard a cracking noise and felt a lot of pain. What had happened is he had used the stun gun on her face,' said prosecutor Kerry Broome during the nine week trial.
'Her face was swollen and painful.
'There was no need at all for anyone to administer a Taser, led alone to the face.
'He also administered the same gun to Mr Margolin's head and neck area.'
Two customers were also forced to hand over wedding jewellery they were attempting to retrieve from the pawnbroker's.
On June 25, just a few days before the attack at the pawnbroker's, the gang had tried to raid a Muslim wedding celebration after it had been announced in the local paper.
One wedding guest was Tasered in the face by the gang, but still managed to stop them from entering the home.
Then on August 8, officers from the Flying Squad - who had been following the gang since the Maxcroft robbery - swooped on gang members during a raid on Milap mini-supermarket in Chadwell Heath, east London.
Behind bars: Aamir Kayani, 31, (left) was jailed for his part in the raid, while Michael Carbon, 26, (right) was sentenced for his role in another raid on a convenience store
Sadiku, Strasunskas, Carbon, Kayani, Day, and Bharj, were linked to the Maxcroft raid, while Michael Carbon was identified as part of the gang in the third robbery.
Michael Carbon and Strasunkas threatened staff with a handgun, stealing cash and other valuables before were stopped by armed police as they tried to escape.
Francis Carbon and Kayani, who were acting as a getaway driver and a lookout, were arrested nearby.
Sadiku, of Walthamstow, east London, admitted to aggravated burglary, burglary, two counts of robbery, two counts of carrying a firearm with criminal intent, two counts of possession of a prohibited weapon and one count of possessing a firearm with intent to commit an offence.
He was jailed for a total of 13 years.
Day, of Ilford, admitted robbery and carrying a firearm with criminal intent and was jailed for six years.
Strasunksas, of Clayhall, Francis Carbon, Barking, and Kayani, 31, of Romford, were convicted of aggravated burglary, two counts of robbery, burglary, two counts of carrying a firearm with criminal intent, two counts of possession of a prohibited weapon, and one of possessing a firearm.
Strasunksas was jailed for 15 years, Francis Carbon was sentenced to 18 years in prison, and Kayani was jailed for 17 years.
Bharj, 47, from Upminster, Essex, was found guilty of two counts of robbery, one of burglary, carrying a firearm with criminal intent, possession of a prohibited weapon, and possession of a firearm.
He was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
Michael Carbon, 26, of Plaistow, east London, was convicted of burglary, robbery, and possession of a firearm. He was jailed for ten years.
Sentencing, Judge Nigel Seed QC told the gang: 'The stun gun was used in the face of a female employee as well as several times on the manager.
'The female employees were terrified, and one heard a shout of "I'll f****** kill you".
'The employees were subjected to violence and forced at gunpoint to hand over the contents of their desk drawers.
'An innocent couple of customers there redeeming family jewellery and gold had that taken as well.
'This had been carefully planned.'
