TORONTO, Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- GroveWare Technologies Ltd. (OTCQB: GROV) – a provider of enterprise mobile solutions connecting workforces by smartphones and tablet devices, is pleased to announce the launch of its proprietary Quality Assurances mobile manufacturing solutions. The application is intended for use on the production floor to help eliminate paper use and generate greater manufacturing efficiencies.
Among the early adopters looking to deploy the latest MobiTask™ solution in the manufacturing sector is Curtis Wright Corporation (CW), a diversified global provider of highly engineered products and services for the aviation industry. GroveWare has provided test units of its revolutionary MobiTask™ solution for field testing on CW's production facility floor, allowing the company to experiment with mobile technology to increase production efficiencies in quality control processes, eliminating the use of paper based processes
Introduced to GroveWare by Business Solutions partner Verizon Wireless, Curtis Wright specializes in advanced engineering and high performance markets, operating over 90 manufacturing facilities throughout United States. The venerable company specializes in operations across three market segments: Motion Control, Flow Control and Metal Treatment, which support several of the largest, most vital industries in the world, including defense, commercial aerospace and energy. GroveWare is collaborating with Curtis Wright using its MobiTask™ advance solution to replace the use of paper based processes in their Quality Assurance with dynamic, electronic mobile systems. This technology enables CW to create a paperless exchange of critical data from production floor to the cloud seamlessly for storage, audit, and recall as needed.
"The addition of the manufacturing sector to the current markets GroveWare serves -- Governments, Education, Law Enforcement, Construction, Field Force Automation, and General Inspections -- is expected to add significant growth and profitability to our company's bottom line in 2013 and beyond," states GroveWare Technologies CEO, Hrair Achkarian. "We have identified 400,000 potential manufacturing companies that can benefit from MobiTask's solutions and we estimate a very large increase in our potential revenue stream over the next 5 years."
"Our business plan calls for a rapid solution deployment in all sectors of the economy. We are confident in our ability to deliver powerful, Commercial Off The Self (COTS) solutions, and have a presence across the enterprise spectrum, building on our strong customer relationships and leveraging our channel partners such as Verizon Wireless," concludes Achkarian.

The Internet of Things will challenge the status quo of how IT and development organizations operate. Or will it?

The idea of comparing data in motion (at the sensor level) to data at rest (in a Big Data server warehouse) with predictive analytics in the cloud is very appealing to the industrial IoT sector.

In his session at @ThingsExpo, Scott Allen, CMO of FreeWave, discussed how as IoT is increasingly adopted by industrial markets, there is going to be an increased demand for sensor data from the outermos...

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.

Fassmer shipyard, located in Berne in Lower Saxony, and AG Ems, which is the Emden-based parent company of Cassen Eils shipping line, have signed the construction contract for the new Helgoland ferry. Imtech Marine received the order for the whole range of electrical systems and electronics. Apart from the engineering, the order contains the technical coordination and the project management. Imtech will provide the ship automation, the switchgears, the motor starters, distribution panels and lighting as well as the complete cable network. In addition, Imtech Marine will supply the navigation and communication equipment for the ferry.
In the future, the ship will ensure the year-round ferry service to the island of Helgoland. Accordingly, there will be more trips from the mainland to Helgoland – for both passengers and cargo. As of May 2015, the ship will prospectively cast off regularly from Cuxhaven to the island. On board, there will be place for around 1,000 people and up to ten cargo containers - even under extreme weather conditions. So far, every now and then, Helgoland was cut off from the outside world when there were storms.
With a speed of up to 20 knots, the new multi-purpose vessel will be in transit on the North Sea. There are special stabilizers that will take care of keeping the ship as calm as possible – even in heavy seas.
A new Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) drive will ensure an environmentally conscious journey. LNG can be regarded as most environmentally friendly fossil fuel, because it has the lowest CO2 emissions per unit of energy and compared to conventional shipping fuels it hardly produces sulfur oxide- and only reduced nitrogen oxide-emissions.

iPhone / iPad Hotmail coming with iOS 5 - confirmed!Pocket-lint
While the Hotmail application for Android handsets and tablets is now available, it's only a matter of time before Apple iPhone and iPad owners will be able to integrate Hotmail email accounts with their devices too. However, it won't be released in app form as with the Google operating system. Instead, Microsoft has confirmed to Pocket-lint that it will be selectable as an account option in "Mail" when iOS 5 launches.
Speaking to us in an exclusive one-to-one briefing, Bryan Saftler, Hotmail product manager, Microsoft Consumer and Online UK, explained that Apple's soon-to-be-released software upgrade will have the email service ingrained in its very core: "We're going to be native on iOS 5, which is going to be released momentarily, so just like you get any other email, it's going to be on that experience: push, calendar, contacts and email," he said.
It's the final piece in the puzzle to bring Hotmail back to the public conciousness, it seems.
With Apple devices soon to be covered, and an Android portal already out there to download for free, Microsoft can finally say that it has brought the service to all smartphones, and can therefore compete on a level footing with Gmail.
Saftler is certainly confident: "Windows Phone on Mango - phenomenal experience. We've always had an experience on BlackBerry. Always had an experience on Nokia. So now we've covered the major smartphone market, and we'll be available fully for free."
Let battle commence.

The three-week series begins Monday, Aug. 11, and budges aside the current story line, which has been finished for months. Most cartoonists work months in advance of what you see published. Unlike many artists, Batiuk works almost a year in advance.
The story is about a comic writer who gets the assignment of a lifetime -- writing Superman. When he gets stuck, a buddy says he needs inspiration and drives him to visit the house where it all began. Batiuk drew the house based on photos he took that day and turned out a smart little story.
Thanks to Rob Corns for the lead on this story.

text: Benefits Some Participants Use Simple Math to Allocate Investments August 14, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – Some defined contribution participants rely on simple math when deciding how to allocate their plan investments, research indicates. By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | August 14, 2012 This was especially true when participants were presented with a larger number of investment menu choices. Researchers from Rutgers University; University of Pittsburgh; University of Texas, Austin; and Boston College found the number of participants selecting the default fund option increased as the size of the investment menu increased, but among those who actively selected investments, easy division was key to their decision making. The findings suggest that while most investors want to invest in a handful of funds, the total number they invest in may be systematically influenced by the total number of funds offered in the plan. Larger fund assortments may cognitively tax ordinary investors, who may then simply decide to not only increase the number they choose for their own portfolios, but also to divvy up their dollars evenly. Responses to questions asked of the study participants do not support the notion that when choosing from a larger assortment, choosing more funds or evenly allocating their dollars is motivated by the desire to create a more diversified portfolio. "[A] practical implication of our research is to provide insight and direction to fiduciaries responsible for designing and implementing retirement plans in the best interest of their employees," said the researchers. "If fiduciaries can control which options investors consider, they can design mutual fund assortments more optimally to increase the likelihood of participation and the quality of decisions made."

ST. LOUIS (KMOX) – Many area school districts offer summer school, but Belleville East offers credited classes such as biology and math, for a fee.
The St. Clair R-13 School District offers voluntary summer school as well, but with a financial incentive. Assistant superintendent Nadine Myers says that the district has been offering incentives such as this for years.
"We give them either a $50 or $100 Walmart card, or something along that line," Myers says.
This summer, the money will be doubled from what it has been previously. If a student has perfect attendance, they will receive $100 and if they miss only one day, it will be $50.
Students in kindergarten through fifth grade can receive cash prizes as well, but they will not exceed $25 and the money does not apply to summer credit courses. Myers says that they want kids in school learning during the summer months rather than losing the knowledge they have gained during the fiscal year.
Myers says that in most cases their summer program includes about 900 students, grades K-12.
"Summer vacation is a pretty popular thing with kids, but we want to minimize what students lose in instruction during the summertime," says Myers. "So, offering that incentive is a way we try to help."

Stupendous projections for the value of the IoT have been thrown about this year. Trillions of dollars of value are said to be in play.
Great, but who will pay for all of this? To get a handle on this question, we can start by looking at the nature of the IoT.
The other day I mentioned the IoT's three big components: wearables, M2M, and smart grids. They can be seen as separate elements, each with its own world of hardware manufacturing, software development, and deployment to enterprises on the one hand; consumers on the other; and government and NGOs.
M2M is expected to generate 70 to 80% of the coming zettabytes of annual internet traffic - much of this dataflow will be hyperlocal, and all of it will be contained within a manufacturing facility or supply chain. Wearables will be things like fancier heart monitors for joggers, Dick Tracy watches, and less risible versions of Google Glass. Smart grids will eliminate traffic jams, slash energy bills, and reverse global warming.
A Complex Scene
That's a highly simplified picture of the real IoT, of course. A lot of M2M traffic will flow along those traffic grids, for example. Wearables will include any number of little beacons that will work with grids to speed up things like shopping, entrance to events, and flying. And the grids in and of themselves are not going to be a universal solvent to any of our problems.
The three components are also highly dependent on one another. The wearables market won't last long if good connectivity is not available. Yet ubiquitous, high-speed grids will need ubiquitous wearables to justify investments. We remember dark fiber, right? (Much of it is still there, waiting to be lit.)
Adding to this the challenge of making sense of the welter of ways to communicate among machines, particularly in close quarters. The need for standards is an evergreen in the technology industry, and has never been more confusing than with today's nascent IoT. There are already several standards organizations led by big technology companies who invariably push the tried-and-true my way or the highway approach to creating "de facto" standards.
So Who Will Pay Whom?
Funding from all this looks to be as complex as the global economy itself. Wearables will be funded by consumers, M2M by business and to some extent government. The grids will be a combination of significant in-building infrastructure, with costs borne by developers and ultimately by tenants; continuous telco growth serving consumers and enterprises; and massive public works projects that may ultimately need tricky public-private partnerships to be built.
Pesky voter approval may come into play for much of the grid infrastructure funding. In the developing world, a large measure of NGO and CSR (corporate social responsibility) funding will be added into the funding mix, whether healthcare-focused wearables, educational outreach programs, or grids.
I've got my mind focused immediately on the upcoming @ThingsExpo, for which I serve as Conference Chair, and long-term on a project I call IoT2040, which covers what I think is a reasonable timeframe to achieve significant progress with the IoT.
3rd International Internet of @ThingsExpo will take place November 4-6, 2014 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, California with over 100 major sponsors and exhibitors in 2014 and more than 6,000 delegates from 17 countries.

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.

Canon EF-S 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS STM Telephoto zoom lens
Mark Peters : September 2nd 2013 - 18:10 CET
Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM zoom lens :
Canon is proud to introduce the new EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM telephoto zoom lens. Created to be the perfect companion lens for the EOS 70D, EOS Rebel SL1 and EOS Rebel T5i Digital SLR cameras, the EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens expands Canon's line of Stepping Motor (STM) lenses to six models - the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, the EF 40mm f/2.8 STM, EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, EF-M 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, EF-M 22mm f/2.0 and the new EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens. Canon's Stepping Motor lenses allow for the capture of high-quality still and video images and reduce motor noise from the lens so cameras, such as the Canon EOS 70D, will capture the sound of the video scene being recorded without the interruption of noise by the focusing motors.
Canon EF-S 55-250mm telephoto zoom lens features
The EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM telephoto zoom lens offers high magnification in a compact and lightweight EF-S telephoto zoom lens with an Optical Image Stabilizer for up to 3.5* equivalent stops for shake correction. The lens' stepping motor and newly-designed focus mechanism support Canon EOS Movie Servo AF (available on select EOS cameras) to provide smooth and quiet continuous autofocusing during video shooting, as well as when shooting photos. The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM telephoto zoom lens features one UD lens element, reducing chromatic aberration throughout the zoom range for excellent image quality with high resolution and contrast.
Enhanced lens coatings
It features enhanced lens coatings to help ensure superb color balance while minimizing ghosting and flare and a 7-blade circular aperture creates beautiful, soft backgrounds. For outstanding performance, a new compact six-group zoom system provides a maximum magnification of 0.29x at the telephoto end. Full-time manual focus is available in AF mode. The front element does not rotate during focus, which is beneficial when using polarizing filters. Minimum focusing distance is 2.79 ft./0.85m. The lens' rear focusing system, high-speed CPU and improved AF algorithm allow for high-speed autofocusing. For technical details, download the
Canon EF-S 55-250mm
specification sheet.
Canon EF-S 55-250mm price & availability
The Canon 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM telephoto zoom lens is scheduled to be available in late September for an estimated retail price of $350 USD.

Alison Waite Is the Babe of the Day
Playboy once described her as "the quintessential girl next door."
Playboy once described her as "the quintessential girl next door."
We'd love to go under the sea to kiss this girl. (Her name's Arielle, don't ya get it?)
She literally teaches a class called Power Booty.
No, we are not going to make some crude MILF joke here. We have manners.
She's a babe who wears many hats. Also bikinis.
A bikini model and designer who designs and models her own bikinis.
She's like an otherworldly creature from an imaginary pleasure planet.
Imagine all the costumes she'd wear for you.
All that and more. Much more.
After searching far and wide, we finally we found her.
"Breathtakingly hot" doesn't say nearly enough.
Take a look at this three-time AVN Award winner.

A major £36 million coastal defence scheme from Clacton Pier to Holland Haven is to get underway this week. The first phase of works will begin with demolishing the existing concrete and timber groynes from the radar mast to Brighton Road at Holland-on-Sea and removing them in preparation for the construction works.
Once the structures have been taken away beach material will be brought in from a Crown Estate licenced off-shore dredge site. The material will then be rainbowed onto the shore from a special shallow draft dredging vessel to create platforms from which the construction program will be carried out.
Rock will be shipped in by sea from a quarry in Norway to create 23 new fishtail groynes and the beach recharge will involve about 950,000 cubic metres of sand and shingle. Work will begin today at Holland Haven – between the mast and Brighton Road – and the beach will need to be closed off for safety reasons.
It is expected to take until early August, depending on the weather, for the first kilometre of existing breakwaters at Holland Haven to be removed and the initial beach recharge is due to start on July 29.
Nick Turner, Tendring District Council's (TDC) Cabinet Member for Environment and Coast Protection, said it is a day he has been waiting for. "The contractors have been busy preparing on site but from Monday there will be activity taking place and people will be able to see it's now full steam ahead."
"Excavators and dump trucks will be going along the beach and getting rid of the broken and dilapidated structures which are no longer fulfilling any worthwhile purpose," he said. "What we will finish up with in about 18 months' time are coastal defences which will protect more than 3,000 residential and commercial properties for the next 100 years."
"Much more than that it will signal a catalyst for the renaissance of our seafront and open up a whole range of investment and regeneration opportunities. It is definitely more than just a coast defence scheme," added Turner.
VBA Joint Venture Ltd has won the contract for the scheme which will be project managed by Mott MacDonald for TDC.
Essex County Councillor John Jowers, Cabinet Member for Libraries, Communities and Planning, said, "It is excellent to see this critical coastal defence scheme get underway. ECC was pleased to contribute funding as it will help make a real difference to the lives of residents and businesses in the Clacton to Holland-on-Sea area."
Jaap Dekker from VBA said that VBA look forward to delivering the project and the benefits it will provide to the community.
The project will be completed in two phases. The first is from Holland Haven to Brighton Road and then from Brighton Road to Clacton Pier. The phases are subject to tidal and weather conditions and may change as the project goes forward.

FOOTHILL RANCH, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/13 -- Applied Voice & Speech Technologies, Inc. (AVST), a leading provider of best of breed Unified Communications (UC) software, announced today that, in further support of the emerging enterprise trend towards hybrid UC cloud deployments, the latest release of its enterprise class CX-E UC platform now supports an enhanced integration to Microsoft® Office 365, including unified messaging, calendaring, contacts and message waiting indicator.
While the majority of enterprise UC deployments today are premise-based (private cloud), recent surveys indicate a clear trend towards public cloud-based and hybrid premise and cloud-based deployments of UC and enterprise voice. As a first step, a growing number of enterprises are deploying public cloud-based email services while leveraging their remaining mission-critical voice infrastructure on-premise. "With either total or partial (hybrid) cloud-based enterprise UC deployments predicted to increase from 35 percent today to 70 percent in the future, hybrid deployments will clearly be the preferred approach for enterprise UC deployments in the future -- based upon an extensive survey we just completed," said Michael Finneran, Principal at dBrn Associates, Inc, the primary author of the study which was conducted by Webtorials, on behalf of Sonus Networks. In support of this trend, AVST has released this latest version of its enterprise class UC platform, CX-E, to address the growing popularity of these hybrid UC cloud deployments. Through its resilient UC architecture and extensive interoperability, CX-E can be attached to cloud email services such as Microsoft Office 365 and Google Gmail.
"2013 is the year of the hybrid UC cloud," said Tom Minifie, AVST's Chief Technology Officer. "Our customers are migrating from an on-premise Exchange Server email environment to Office 365 in the cloud. Seattle Pacific University is one example of this. The world class interoperability of AVST's CX-E platform has enabled Seattle Pacific University to operate in an evolving email environment while continuing to offer the University's faculty and staff a completely unified experience."
According to David W. Tindall, Assistant Vice President for Technology Services, Seattle Pacific University, "AVST's CX-E platform architecture and interoperability keep our university at the forefront of Unified Communications, and its powerful set of UC applications continues to elevate the business performance of our faculty and staff. We are now able to offer a seamless unified messaging experience, as well as manage and access our availability, contacts and calendaring from our mobile devices -- regardless of whether we are using a premise or cloud-based email system."
Thousands of enterprise customers globally have chosen AVST's industry leading CX-E UC platform as part of their private cloud or hybrid cloud UC deployment strategy. Key features include:
- Highly scalable enterprise class architecture supports mission critical voice application modernization initiatives including centralization, full disaster recovery/business continuity capabilities and virtualization support;
- Broadest UC interoperability on the UC market enabling enterprises to leverage and unify their existing UC infrastructure investments as well as connect to the cloud for an optimal hybrid UC configuration; and
- Best of breed AVST mobile, voice and business process applications that deliver increased individual, work group and enterprise productivity.
CX-E 8.2 SU3 is now available through AVST's established reseller channels worldwide. For more information about AVST's products, please visit the company website at www.avst.com.
About AVST
The typical enterprise communications infrastructure is made up of a collection of technologies from multiple vendors, acquired over time and never intended to work together. To maximize user and business productivity, while leveraging existing IT investments, interoperability is a must.
AVST delivers the industry's most interoperable Unified Communications (UC) platform that brings best-of-breed voice, mobility and business process applications to the enterprise. Unlike virtually every other UC vendor, AVST does not constrain customers with a single vendor lock-in approach. In fact, it's the very opposite. By connecting new and existing technologies, AVST frees organizations from the constraints of a closed, single-source UC solution, unlocking the full potential of their communications infrastructure.
With over 15 million users worldwide and three decades of innovation excellence, AVST is unifying communications®.
Headquartered in Orange County, California, AVST maintains facilities in Seattle, Washington, Victoria B.C., Canada and the United Kingdom and has remote sales offices throughout the United States. AVST's UC solutions are sold and supported worldwide by an extensive network of resellers and OEM partners.

Disney VHS Lot
Numerous Masterpiece Collection. Some have a pricetag that may or may not come off easy, just depends. I tried 2. 1 came off and e other left a tear. If you were more careful you should be able to get the majority of the stickers off. I havent watched any of these but have no reason to think they dont work. There may be 1 or 2 that have issues. There are a couple duplicates but not many. Lot as a whole looks to be in good condition. There should be a couple rare ones. Not all are Disney but almost all are classic family movies.
Shipping and Handling: $FREE within the USA.
Payment Instructions: I accept VISA / MASTER CARD,Paypal. Paypal is our preferred method of paymentIt is fast and easy. When paying through paypal please send it to firstname.lastname@example.com.
