SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/08/13 -- In the news release, "Mercent Joins Retail Thought-Leaders at 102nd Annual National Retail Federation Convention & Expo in NYC; Company Hosting Executive Retail Forum During Retail 'Big Show,'" issued earlier today by Mercent, we are advised by the company that in the first sentence of the fifth paragraph, it should read "Yann Tanini" rather than "Yann Tahini" as originally issued. Complete corrected text follows.
Mercent Joins Retail Thought-Leaders at 102nd Annual National Retail Federation Convention & Expo in NYC; Company Hosting Executive Retail Forum During Retail 'Big Show'
SEATTLE, WA -- January 8, 2013 -- NRF 2013 - Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, New York City -- Mercent, a leading technology company that enables retailers to profitably reach and convert more shoppers online, announced today its attendance at the 2013 National Retail Federation (NRF) 'Big Show' and 102nd Annual Convention & EXPO held January 13-16th at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City, NY.
NRF's Annual Convention & EXPO was nicknamed "Retail's BIG Show" many years ago and because the name was so appropriate, it stuck. Today, Retail's BIG Show is NRF's flagship industry event held annually in New York City. The four day event offers unparalleled education, collegial networking, and an enormous EXPO Hall full of technologies and solutions.
Mercent joins more than 25,000 professionals during this 3-day industry event and is scheduled to meet with retail clients and prospects, industry and strategic partners, and media and analysts. Mercent's Chairman and CEO Eric Best will provide fourth quarter 2012 eCommerce sales data and insights; expert perspective and strategic recommendations to help merchants grow their eCommerce sales and profits across key online channels supported by the Mercent Retail platform; and winning tactics to leverage growth channels that include Amazon.com and the new Google Shopping platform.
"The NRF 'Big Show' is a highly attended and leading event for the retail industry at large," commented Best. "Mercent is pleased to enter 2013 with our largest portfolio of enterprise retail clients and look forward to a week's worth of private meetings and events where we can gain valuable insights and feedback from merchants, and in exchange, share in-house expertise to guide them to a successful and profitable New Year."
Complementing its attendance at the NRF "Big Show," Mercent is hosting a private Retail Executive Forum led by an expert leadership panel featuring Google's head of Google Shopping Jon Venverloh, Citi Investment Research's lead Retail Analyst Deborah Weinswig and Redcats' VP of eCommerce Yann Tanini. The panel will lead a dynamic dialogue covering 2013 market opportunities and strategies merchants should leverage to drive positive bottom line returns in the New Year. The event will be held on Tuesday, January 15th, at Le Bernardin in the Les Salons Bernardin private dining room. Retail executives interested in open seating availability should contact [email protected] or call 206.310.5323.
Following its private Retail Forum beginning at 9:00 pm ET, Mercent is hosting an open 'after-party' event with co-hosts Google and Netmining at 48 Lounge in Midtown Manhattan. The event will feature an open bar, gourmet hors d'oeurves and music by New York's top DJ Tom Macari. Attendees must RSVP HERE, email [email protected] or phone 206.310.5323.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

It may not be my place to say but, that was the best zelda parody EVERY! Keep up the good work, and thanks for what you have already done.
This Rocks.
Queen AND Zelda? can it get any better?
Princes of the Universe is on the Highlander Sound Track, but Who Wants To Live For Ever is the Main theme for it.
Anyway, Fantastic Flash, Great animations and Funny as anything
Does it really matter? Both songs were made for the Highlander Sound Track, but "Princes of the Universe" happens to be the most recognizable song of the series.
Thanks for the review.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Yes, it is much smoother. Keep it up!!

Squigo is now one of my favorite flash series. Its so cute the sounds and the simple graphics and the violent end to it all...and that one board in the floor that is loose..lol gotta love it!

I, Daniel Blake 2016
This is no "it's grim up North" caricature, but rather a deeply compelling and ferociously damning film but filled with real humanism. That it uses humour in no way detracts from the chilling reality of life on the poverty line and here the State is no longer the mother to care for her citizens but the heartless automaton following a ruthless right-wing agenda.
There's an element of Terry Gilliam's Brazil in this but where that was satirical, it still seemed…
Money Monster 2016
The dismissive "eh, it's okay" reviews aren't giving this film nearly enough credit, either for its tight action (reminiscent of Inside Man) or its bleak sense of humor and awareness of the media environment and people's cynicism around corporate America. Money Monster has a lot of surprises — for God's sake, see it before a trailer gives half the movie away — and the biggest one is how subtle it is about getting across some of its more heartfelt points,…
Morris From America 2016
Note: This one isn't out until August, but Chicago can see it at the Chicago Film Critics Festival on May 20, with the director and star Craig Robinson in attendance for a Q&A. Which is why I saw it so early.
This film is such a charmer, and such a surprise. It's a slice-of-life movie with a little coming-of-age action about a transplanted black kid growing up in Germany with his dad (Craig Robinson). It acknowledges racism and stereotypes,…
High-Rise 2015
I'm impressed by its ambition, but then again, it's source material handles much of that heft. If Crash was made today it might resemble something like this, cold and distant but calculating instead of pulsating. Where Cronenberg's film excels at mapping it's characters psychology, Wheatley's film is interested more in concept and social constructs. I guess one just appeals more to me. How this ultra-modernist prison would make me feel is infinitely more fascinating to me than watching it's effects…
Eye in the Sky 2015
This begins horribly: competent but extraordinary dull camera direction, laser-thin character development, and hackeneyed use of introducing not one but two characters by showing them waking up in bed left me in dread. As such, it took me by surprise to realize 45 minutes in how invested I'd become in the movie. Sharply written to complicate its central premise into knots that will test the opinions but all of the most polarized, it's also quite competently organized such that despite…
The Revenant 2015
I didn't expect to see so much beauty heading into a film hyped for it's gory climatic scenes. It really is a beautiful film of cold landscapes featuring humans acting like animals. Exquisite cinematography and sound design complement the acting perfectly.
Paddington 2014
Adorable live-action adaptation of the beloved bear's adventures is stacks of fun, yet gently, powerfully weaves in themes of refugee experience and prejudice.
A Christmas Story 1983
This film is pure cheese, yet it is my kind of Christmas cheese.
Spectre 2015
Odd chatter with this one, I thought it was a fantastic 007 film. The best Craig since Casino Royale *shrugs*
Loved what Hoyte Van Hoytema brought to the look, the action sequences were spectacular, Seydoux's sidekick 'Bond girl' was one of the more memorable, and the return of goofy classic Bond elements (the ridiculous villain-lair, the mute henchmen) was surprisingly welcome.
The final act return to London is a let down, but just about everything preceding it (save for the Bellucci bit) is really really good.
Holding the Man 2015
Is it possible to laud a film with faint praise? I am going to try. I don't know any other route to take with Neil Armfield's film version of Timothy Conigrave's memoir 'Holding the Man'. It is the only way I can think of to unpack my considerable reaction.
Unlike most of my friends, Holding the Man was not a film I have been desperately awaiting. Nor, with its memorialising structure, stagey execution and heart on sleeve emotions, is it…
Once Upon a Time in the West 1968
Ah. So that's about as good as it gets, huh?

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13 NASB)
God wants you confident in the truth that, through him, all things are possible.
Every day of your life, you have a choice:
When the Israelites first approached the borders of Canaan, Moses sent scouts into the Promised Land to assess the situation. Ten of the scouts came back with reports that focused on the giants in the land, men so big and powerful the scouts feared they could not be defeated.
However, two of the scouts remained confident in the promise from God that he would hand the land over to the Israelites. One of those scouts, Caleb, silenced the others when he said, "We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it" (Numbers 13:30b NIV). He was focused on the magnitude of God and not the magnitude of any giant challenge ahead.
Today, you may be facing giants that challenge your faith. Some of the giants crowd around you — giants of time and energy, finances and resources, fear and faithlessness.
God wants you confident that he's pouring his strength into you so you can do whatever it takes to overcome these obstacles. He says you can take possession of your promised mission; you can be certain you can do it because God is strengthening you.
Consider this: God wants to build up your faith, and one way he'll do it is by showing you how, together with him, it is possible to defeat the giants that keep you from moving into your promised mission.

Multivariable adjunctions and mates
Add to your list(s) Download to your calendar using vCal
If you have a question about this talk, please contact Julia Goedecke.
In this talk I will present the notion of ``cyclic double multicategory'', as a structure in which to organise multivariable adjunctions and mates. The most common example of a 2-variable adjunction is the hom/tensor/cotensor trio of functors; we generalise this situation to $n+1$ functors of $n$ variables. Furthermore, we generalise the mates correspondence, which enables us neatly to pass between natural transformations involving left adjoints and those involving right adjoints.
While the standard mates correspondence is elegantly described using an isomorphism of double categories, the multivariable version needs the framework of ``double multicategories''. Moreover, we show that the analogous isomorphisms of double multicategories give a cyclic action on the multimaps, yielding the notion of ``cyclic double multicategory''.
This is joint work with Nick Gurski and Emily Riehl, and is motivated by and applied to Riehl's approach to algebraic monoidal model categories.

This paper presents a fast and effective algorithm for detecting ridge- or ribbon-like linear features from remote sensing imagery. To judge if a pixel is at the center of a linear feature, the first step is to find several biggest pixels by their grey values within orthogonal directional windows, and store them into an evaluation window. A simple evaluation method is then applied to make the yes or no decision on whether the pixel is a linear feature point. Aerial images were used to test the algorithm's ability to extract roads. This algorithm was compared with the Multiple Directional Non Maximum Suppression (MDNMS) algorithm. The experimental results indicate that with the proposed algorithm the processing of road details could improve and the processing time decrease.

Himachal Preadesh: No new tax, VAT of cigarettes increasedTNN | Mar 15, 2013, 04.44 AM IST
SHIMLA: Cigarette, cigar and beedi would cost more in Himachal Pradesh as government has increased Value Added Tax (VAT) on these products, while anti-hail nets used to save apple crop from being damaged by hail nets would cost less as it would be made available to farmers on 80% subsidy. While presenting first budget of his government, chief minister Virbhadra Singh refrained from imposing any new tax, but he generously doled out sops to agriculture and horticulture sector which is the main stay of state.
During assembly election, Congress had promised unemployment allowance and after coming to power government partially keeping up its promise has now decided to provide "Skill Development Allowance" of Rs 1,000 per month to unemployed youth between 25 to 35 years having cleared class XII or above class. Decision would benefit around 2.20 lakh youth in the state.
Virbhadra Singh, who has retained the finance portfolio with him, on Thursday presented Rs 21,767 crore budget for 2013-14 in the assembly barring cigarette, cigar and beedi. He refrained from proposing any new tax. He said to discourage people from smoking, VAT on cigarettes and cigars is being increased from 18 to 36% and on beedis from 11 to 22%. He also proposed to levy 9% VAT on all types of footwear, combining the two existing rates of 5% and 13.75%.
He said total budget expenditure estimated for 2013-14 is Rs 21,767 crore out of which estimated expenditure on salaries is Rs 6,956 crore, on pensions it would be Rs 2,839 crore, estimated interest payments would be Rs 2,431 crore, and loan repayments are expected to be Rs 1,714 crore apart from Rs 342 crore on other loans and Rs 1,721 crore on maintenance.
He said total revenue receipts are estimated at Rs 17,700 crore and the total revenue expenditure is estimated to be Rs 17,646 crore leaving a revenue surplus of Rs 54 crore. The expected receipts in capital account of the government are Rs 3,540 crore apart from Rs 650 crore in Public Account including Provident Fund etc. Capital expenditure including loan repayments is estimated to be Rs 4,120 crore. The fiscal deficit for 2013-14 is expected to be Rs 2,324 crore which is 2.85% of the gross state domestic product (GSDP).
Chief minister said as per the budget estimates, against an expenditure of every Rs 100, the state will have Rs 81.31 as total revenue receipts, including transfers, from the Centre. "The gap of Rs 18.69 will have to be met by borrowings," he added.
Out of every Rs 100 of state revenue receipts, Rs 30.35 will accrue from own tax revenues, Rs 13.52 from non-tax revenues, Rs 15.35 from share in Central taxes and Rs 40.78 from Central grants. Out of every Rs 100 spent, salaries will account for Rs 31.95, pensions for Rs 13.05, interest payments for Rs 11.17, loan repayments for Rs 7.87 and the remaining Rs 35.96 will be spent on developmental works, including other activities.
Loan repayments are expected to be Rs 1,714 crore apart from Rs 342 crore on other loans and Rs 1,721 crore on maintenance, he said.

Private equity firm Hellman & Friedman on Monday agreed to acquire internet media company Internet Brands INET.O for $640 million in cash.
The private equity firm's offer of $13.35 a share was 46.5 percent more than the company's last closing price.
Internet Brands operates a slew of websites on themes as varied as automobiles, careers, health issues and money and business. Most of its revenue comes from online advertising.
The company said its largest shareholder Idealab, which helps set up technology start-ups, has entered into a voting agreement with Hellman & Friedman for the merger.
Idealab owns about 19 percent of the outstanding shares of Internet Brands and has 64 percent voting power.
Financing commitments for the deal have been obtained from Bank of America (BAC.N), GE Capital, BMO capital markets and RBC Capital markets, the company said in a statement.
The transaction, which is subject to shareholder approval, is expected to close in the fourth quarter of this year.
Hellman & Friedman had acquired building products maker Associated Materials earlier this month for $1.3 billion.
Shares of Internet Brands, which have gained about a quarter in the last 12 months, rose 46.5 percent to Hellman and Friedman's offer of $13.35 in morning trade on Nasdaq.

What's most inspiring about the people you see on the following pages might be what isn't visible: The long hours, personal investments, sweat and tears. The friends, family members and mentors who fired them up along the way. The coworkers who encouraged them. The difficult conversations, debates and negotiations. The obstacles that stood in their paths. The questions they asked. The challenges they overcame. And perhaps most important, the hundreds of young men and women across the city whose work, creativity and change they symbolize. The potential they represent is testament to a city full of promise. — Jason Roop
Two events in the next month offer an opportunity to connect with these young men and women and hear more about how they're working to change Richmond.
What: Join us for a networking reception and ceremony honoring the recipients.
When: Tuesday, Oct. 22, from 6-8:30 p.m.
Where: Virginia Historical Society, 428 N. Boulevard.
To Go: Tickets are $35 per person, available here.
What: How do nonprofit leaders among the Top 40 Under 40 change the community through their work in the social sector? Style Weekly Editor in Chief Jason Roop moderates a panel exploring that question and more in an event produced by the YNPN RVA, ConnectVA's young nonprofit professionals network.
When: Tuesday, Nov. 12, from 5:30-8 p.m.
Where: Library of Virginia, 800 E. Broad St.
To Go: The event is free, but registration is required here.

If Neils Miller doesn't have a statue in Appleton, Wisconsin, he should. You'll be hard pressed to find someone who has had a larger impact on the welding industry than Mr. Miller. Back in 1929, he saw a need for a small, affordable arc welder that would operate on the type of electricity readily available in rural Wisconsin. Using American ingenuity, he cobbled together scrap metal, core and coil materials and hammered out that first welder in his basement. Six short years later, Miller Electric Mfg. Co. produced an industry-changing industrial welder and the rest is history.
Throughout the 40's, Miller's machines powered war efforts in the shipyards and defense plants. In the 50's, Miller played a key role in the construction of most major planes, jets, fighters and missiles. Companies like Boeing, Cessna, Lockheed, Douglas all used Miller machines in their factories. The 1970's brought the introduction of the Millermatic machines; the first power source with a built-in wire feeder.
Today, Miller Electric continues their dominance in the marketplace with machines like the Millermatic 211 and the Dynasty 200 DX, Auto-darkening welding helmets, and the Diversion 180 AC/DC TIG Welder. Miller's full line of welding machines and welding accessories give their loyal customers plenty of reasons to "Bleed Blue."

VMware Launches Cloud Foundry with SuccessFactors
Virtualization and cloud infrastructure solutions provider VMware has launched its Cloud Foundry project with SuccessFactors.
Cloud Foundry helps businesses to build applications using open and industry-standard development technologies while preserving the flexibility to deploy across both public and private clouds.
SuccessFactors, a global specialist in business execution software, will empower its customers and partners to extend SuccessFactors applications using the VMware Cloud Foundry Platform as a Service (PaaS) beta.
Both companies-VMware and SuccessFactors-signed a deal for this project following which SuccessFactors was able to build its first application on CloudFoundry.com within hours.
This application integrated Google Maps data with SuccessFactors' employee location data from its next generation Core HR Information System platform, Employee Central.
SuccessFactors' customers and partners can now easily build, test and run their applications on CloudFoundry.com and in future they can leverage the integration of SuccessFactors and Cloud Foundry to combine its capabilities with other web applications.
"Cloud Foundry helps ensure customers can build applications using open and industry-standard development technologies while preserving the flexibility to deploy across both public and private clouds," said Paul Maritz, CEO of VMware. "SuccessFactors and VMware are both committed to enabling custom development and integration across a broad ecosystem of SaaS providers."
"This agreement is the revolution the cloud industry needs. Our announcement with VMware represents a paradigm shift in the way companies will consume cloud services," said Lars Dalgaard, founder and CEO, SuccessFactors. " We believe SuccessFactors has the world's largest cloud deployments, and we plan to empower our 3,500+ customers with 15 million subscription seats and our partners to rapidly develop custom extensions and integrations of our solutions on Cloud Foundry in an open and non-proprietary manner."

Native Plants
Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.
Did you know you can access the Native Plant Information Network with your web-enabled smartphone?

From: Accord, NY
Region: Northeast
Topic: Grasses or Grass-like
Title: Mowable sedge for Zone 5, New York
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:My wife (who is from Austin!) and I have a house in New York, warmish Zone 5. We are seeking a grass-like groundcover for lawn areas ranging from full to partial shade. We have a well-drained hill needing erosion control, almost-fully-shaded areas needing a low-growing cover that could be mowed or let alone, and flatter areas with decent drainage, but enough moisture in places to drown the ryegrass planted by the builder for temporary erosion control. Mowability and durability is a requirement, as I'd like some traditional lawn space for occasional sports. Attractive foliage and deer resistance are also desirable. Soil is both our native soil and a sandy mix put down by the builder around the house. Large numbers of hard and soft wood trees provide many leaves, which we mulch in the fall. Is there one sedge that can cover all our needs?
This is a toughie. No one said Mr. Smarty Plants could come up with everything, but we tried hard. The most difficult requirement we encountered in our research was mowability. In order to find the five candidates we came up with, we went first to "Plant Database", and down the page to the "Combination Search". There, we filled in the criteria as: State-New York, Growing Habit-grass or grass-like, Light requirements-part to full shade and Moisture-wet.
Carex amphibola (eastern narrowleaf sedge) . This sedge is listed as endangered in New Jersey and New York, so I'm not sure about its availability, but it's good for erosion and wet conditions.
Carex frankii (Frank's sedge) . This apparently grows up to 2-1/2 feet tall, so, unless it took severe mowing well, it's probably not a good candidate.
Carex plantaginea (plantainleaf sedge) .This sedge grows to 1 to 2 feet tall, same problem as above.
Elymus canadensis (Canada wildrye) . This is a ryegrass, which you already said you didn't want, and besides, it grows 2 to 4 feet.
Carex pedunculata (longstalk sedge) . This looks like it might be a winner. On this North American Native Plant Society site, this writer was enthusiastic over this sedge. She also mentions several other native sedges which we don't happen to have on our Native Plant Database, but might be well worth your researching on Google. And she has information on the availability and propagation of the sedges. We found no references to its mowability, but this particular sedge was referred to as 5 inches tall. You might not need to mow.
Now, you get your homework assignment. First, we would suggest you follow the above links and read the information in our database about each plant. A few of them have pictures, as well. If you feel we chose the wrong criteria for our search (too much moisture, not enough sun?), you can do the "Combination Search" for yourself. It will give you a list that fits the requirements you have put in, and you can check the data pages on each of them. And, then go through the article on the North American Native Plant Society site, and see if our nominee for the award is a winner.
Finally, thank you for planning to use plants native to North America and to your geographical area in your landscaping. The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is all about using native plants as a benefit to the environment.

Arts, small business collide
Patchwork Show drew an estimated 7,000-plus people Sunday for shopping and socializing in the heart of the Artists Village in downtown Santa Ana, the founding location and biggest in what has become a network of events focusing on handmade arts and small businesses.
About 160 local vendors sold original jewelry, clothing, accessories, toys and artwork.
The event also offered food trucks, photo booths, craft stations and live music.
Event co-founder Nicole Stevenson said Patchwork, in its seventh year, visits cities that have a growing arts presence. Patchwork hosts shows in Long Beach, Oakland and Santa Ana.
"There are Los Angeles vendors that have never been to Santa Ana before," Stevenson said. "We want people to come here, hang out and bring awareness to people about these emerging arts communities."
