Thesis Literature review (Ch.2): SOCIAL COGNITIVE THEORY OF MORALITY
2011/03/01 § 4 Comments
Introduction: Ethics and morale in a Business context and the effect of honor codes
Chapter 1: PSYCHOLOGICAL BASIS OF MORALITY
Chapter 2: SOCIAL COGNITIVE THEORY OF MORALITY
Chapter 3: TOOLS AND POLICIES REDUCING IMMORAL BEHAVIOUR
Chapter 4: MEASURING MORALE AND ETHICS
4.2.1 Moral awareness and judgment
Apparently, different individuals take different decisions in relation to ethical issues. Social cognitive theory attempts to explain the basis of these differences (Reynolds 2008). The postulate of social cognitive theory is that moral decision is based on the traits of the individual, external stimuli, and the ensuing interaction of the two factors (Bandura 1986).
In accordance to social cognitive theory the difference in moral behaviour derives from a variation in attention to moral issue between individuals. The attention is influenced by the significance of the stimulus, how interesting the stimulus is, and the individual's capacity to recognize and process the stimulus (Taylor 1991).
The basis of moral reasoning is moral judgment that derives from the questions "What is right and wrong?" and the concept of the self, as discussed above (Reynolds and Ceranic 2007). Ethical behaviour starts with a moral judgement based on the awareness of a moral issue, the intention to act morally, and finally the engagement in the appropriate behaviour (Kohlberg 1975).
The judgment of what is right and wrong is crucial in moral behaviour, and is influenced by two main factors, namely development of moral reasoning, which is explained in more details below (Kohlberg 1984; Hunt 1992; Green and Weber 1997; Abdolmohammadi and Sultan 2002; Greenberg 2002; Bernardi, Metzger et al. 2004), and ethical predisposition, which is defined as a cognitive framework that builds the basis for moral decisions (Brady and Wheeler 1996). Moral judgment is a process that is a process that in principles happens every time anew a moral decision has to be taken (Reynolds and Ceranic 2007).
4.2.2 Influencing moral awareness using psychological priming
Some studies have suggested that these factors are subject to priming, i.e. the activation of specific connectional frameworks by subliminal suggestion (Higgins 1989). Priming can for example act by having subjects sort phrases, or unscramble sentences, that are enriched with suggestive terms, for instance words that are associated with the term "mean". By subconsciously directing attention towards the framework for judging actions as "mean" individuals can be influenced to judge vignettes as meaner than control subjects that have performed unscrambling task with no inbuilt bias (Skowronski John, Sedikides et al. 2010).
Other categories that have been addressed using priming are, racial categories (Devine 1989), gender stereotypes (McKenzie-Mohr and Zanna 1990), political advertisements (Shen 2004), anxiety (Robles, Smith et al. 1987), and violent crimes (James 1986), to name but a few examples of the wide array of possible applications.
4.2.3 Moral attentiveness, moral identity, and social consensus
Some authors distinguish moral awareness, that can be influenced by priming, from moral attentiveness, and define attentiveness as a more general sensitivity to moral topics that exists regardless of context (Jones 1991; Reynolds 2008). Moral attentiveness can be associated with a more intuitive moral reaction while awareness implies deliberation. Perceptual aspects play a role in moral attentiveness, which let an individual colour the information encountered, and a reflective aspect which lets the individual examine the experience (Reynolds 2008).
This is an intricate part of the moral identity of an individual which deals with moral aspects of one's self (Bergman 2002). The moral identity acts as a motivator to behave in accordance to moral sets of rules that an individual has come to accept as basis for his own behaviour (Marc H. Bornstein 1999; Narvaez and Lapsley 2009).
"Social consensus indicates the extend to which there is a general concurrence within society about the moral status of the issue" (Reynolds and Ceranic 2007). Reynolds and others have argued that a high social consensus reduces the need for moral judgment of an individual, so that the behaviour of the individual is going to be influenced by his moral identity but not the moral judgment (Reynolds and Ceranic 2007).
4.2.4 Stages of moral development
As pointed out above, moral development is a key component in the decision process on moral behaviour (Kohlberg 1984; Hunt 1992; Green and Weber 1997; Abdolmohammadi and Sultan 2002; Greenberg 2002; Bernardi, Metzger et al. 2004). Kohlberg's conventional level of moral development are a well accepted basis to describe the stages of such a development (Kohlberg 1984; Wikipedia 2011).
The model has- disregarding intermediate levels sometimes applied- three levels, composed of six developmental stages, each more adequate at responding to moral dilemmas than its predecessor (Wikipedia 2011).
The pre-conventional level consists of two stages that could be described as "punishment avoidance" and "benefit seeking". The conventional, or second level, consist of the stages "social conformity" and "authority acceptance". The third, or post-conventional level consists of the stages "social contract shaping" and "ethical principles orientation" (Kohlberg 1984).
The stages describe the progression from a mostly egoistic and self-interested moral perspective, over the acceptance that social norms should be followed for a efficient social existence, to the realization of higher principles, such as ethical principles and social contracts. The final stage is composed of independent intellectual abstraction, and based on complex concepts and such as human rights, liberty and justice. It also incorporates basic principles, such as majority decision and minority protection (Kohlberg 1984).
The basic principles of this model apparently hold true for different cultures, although this circumstance is a matter of some debate (Boom, Wouters et al. 2007; Gibbs, Basinger et al. 2007).
A similar model, that in contrast to Kohlberg's model does not concentrate so much on social development, but rather emphasizes infant development is Jean Piaget's developmental stage theory (Carpendale Jeremy 2000).
Some studies have provided evidence that the stages do correlate with actual behaviour. Employees who had attained Kohlberg's conventional level of moral development refrained from stealing money when they worked in an office that had an ethics program in place. Those on the other hand at the pre-conventional level of development and who worked at an office without an ethics program stole from their employers. Apparently the programs in place improved the moral development of the employees (Greenberg 2002).

When deciding on a mechanical best grease gun coupler, the two first picks are lever actuated or pistol or hand grip.
In widespread extra strain can be received via the use of a lever actuated grease gun. This is now not enormously, due to the fact a lever actuated grease gun, has more leverage than a pistol grip gun does. The gun style guns are more ergonomically friendly and less confusing to use.
In standard, lever fashion weapons will generate around 10,000 PSI while the pistol style will make around 7500 PSI. If you want greater than 7500 PSI, glaringly, no other elements will come into play, and you need to get a lever fashion gun. If you can use much less than 7500 PSI, a pistol style may be for you.
Typically a gun style gun may be actuated using one hand, like a gun, even as the opposite hand can hold the hose and coupler onto the zerk becoming. If you're in a good vicinity, you'll have a little choice, however, to use the pistol grip gun as you'll want one hand to snake the hose to the factor of lubrication and maintain it there.
If that is your state of affairs, you'll want to preserve the precise cleaner to make sure the 7500 PSI generated is enough to crack open the appropriate and lubricate the bearing.
If the bearing is in a more open space and also you do now not need the extra hand to hold the bearing on the zerk fitting, the lever fashion gun will allow for the greater strain to build and therefore you'll do less preservation on the zerk becoming and grease route.
Typically, Gun grip grease guns are more expensive than lever action guns by using about 30%.
As you may see, bar style guns, generate extra pressure and cost much less than pistol action grease weapons.
The huge benefit to pistol grip weapons is that they're easier and less confusing for the user than a lever actuated gun. If your application allows, they're nicely worth the more few dollars.
As usually, while searching to buy cordless grade weapons, I strongly urge you to shop for an acknowledged first-rate brand like Alemite or National Spenser. Also, use the net to buy for the first fee. A little checking around can save your suitable money on the exact product you were going to buy besides.
When deciding on a lever or pistol fashion grease gun, permit your utility to guide you to the right choice.

Flameless candles are one of the vital newest "fads" to have swept the nation in residence décor. Close to every box retailer shares their shelves full of them and that you can get them in any color or measurement. However what most people don't recognize is there are a couple of styles. And in my opinion, the good one will not be offered in shops!
I'll come again to those not offered in shops, but right now I wish to speak about the diversities of those that are offered in shops.
To begin out, you may have a choice of purchasing flameless candles with timer which might be battery operated or powered by way of electric. So far as décor goes, battery operated is the one feasible option. Who wishes a wire putting off their mantle or buffet table.
Subsequent, you have an alternative of buying flameless candles with a timer. This feature is handiest on hand on the battery operated candles; a fab function, however, most likely not the good!
Rather then the few choices I recounted above, battery-operated or electrical, timer or no timer and colors and sizes, these are your most effective choices.
There are some beautiful cool benefits of flameless candles though; no flame (most likely), no hot wax, no smoke, no soot and no lighters required! Worth the funding, which for a 3" x 6" candle at your general field store will run you around $10 plus the rate of batteries.
But now lets get back to the flameless candles I mentioned previous that are not offered in outlets. I stumbled across these a couple of years ago after I lived in Houston.
I had a booth at a local craft show and developing right next to me have been these two core-aged ladies. They back their truck up, unloaded storage container after storage container into their tent and started unpacking them like they had been relocating into a brand new condo.
I did not pay a lot of attention to what they were promoting and persisted getting my own booth in a position for the show. It was going to be a long day sitting outside in the parking zone at considered one of our nearby retailers within the Texas warmness.
After about an hour after the show began I spotted the group was beginning to build up, and that's the moment that I regarded over on the women after me and nearly fell out of my chair! There have to were fifteen women huddled round their tent going nuts for whatever it was they were promoting!
I wager you understand by way of now what they had been promoting...Yep, flameless candles! However...These were not the flameless candles that I knew, these have been beyond the good factor I had obvious in a long time!
This is how they work... The wax sits on a tray above the sunshine bulb and will also be switched out with different scents at any time. There are such a large amount of different heaters that you're definite to seek out one to check the décor in every single considered one of your rooms.

You're in this for the long haul
Timing is everything.
It is usually in hindsight, looking back after the fact at some event or other, that it can be clearly seen that when a decision is made or action is taken was as important as what that decision or action was in the first place. Life is an endless string of cause and effect, and the timing of each and every decision made along the way determines the outcome as much as any other factor. Decisions can be premature, or they can be too late. It is only by taking into account the facts in evidence at any time that any success at timing can be seen.
Understanding the nature of timing, and making decisions and taking actions at the most optimal time is often a matter of discipline. Decisions that are based upon attainment of immediate reward such as the short-sighted seeking of instant gratification can resonate further than intended. There can be repercussions that extend far beyond the benefit of the short-sighted goal. In 1387 Chaucer wrote the Canterbury Tales in which he included the truism that "In wikked haste is not profit." This was re-worded by John Ray in his 1678 A Collection of English Proverbs as: "Haste makes waste, and waste makes want, and want makes strife between the goodman and his wife." In simplest terms, by seeking premature gain, one may end up losing more than was sought after in the first place.
It is the practiced discipline of putting off the natural tendency to seek instant gratification that enables one to plan out, commit to, and achieve long-term goals. The delaying of gratification will often free up resources that allow for the implementation and realization of longer term plans. This longer term approach includes the potential for the ultimate creation of actual conditions that provide for on-going enjoyment of the very same type of gratification that was delayed. A simple picture of this is the dilemma of choice faced by the hungry farmer at planting time. Does he eat the seed in his possession, in which case he is momentarily satiated, or does he plant the seed so as to be able to produce a crop, reap a harvest, have another year of food to eat and realize a profit of having seed to plant with again the following season. Of course there are endless variable that will affect the outcome of this little example, but they do not affect the basic principle that if the crop seed is eaten out of hand, no possibility exists for future enjoyment.
The other side of the timing issue is to react too slowly to information or to disregard the facts in evidence until it is too late and miss the optimum moment. It is said "He who hesitates is lost." History tell us that 80% of investors will not get excited enough about an opportunity in time to profit from the particular trend and end up buying when things are at the top and selling as they hit the low. Some are frozen in their tracks when faced with a decision and suffer from the "analysis paralysis" of looking too long before they leap. This is especially disabling in the world of intra-day trading when opportunity for reaction to miniscule changes can only be taken advantage of by the timely and skillful execution of judicious actions of the technical trader. This is not that kind of microcosmic investment opportunity. This moment in history, which will see the manifestation of the Silver Bomb, is the sum total of all the years, of all the days, of all the trades ever made. It is more like becoming aware of the seeping cracks appearing in the face of a dam just before it bursts, or hearing the muffled grunts emitted deep within a mountaintop snowpack just before an avalanche.
The entire premise of this book is that the world, particularly the western world, stands at the edge of the change of an epoch. As it has been pointed out in these pages, much of that change will be repetition of cycles that have been observable throughout human history. It will also include events that have no prior precedent and will never happen again. The decline of the western empire, with the concurrent paradigm shift away from the fiat currency based economy resembles past historical precedent. It is understandable as a discernibly cyclic phenomenon, the pieces and parts of which can be seen in prior empires and prior ages. The collapse of an experiment with paper currency followed by the re-monetization of precious metal is also nothing new. The change that is coming that has never been seen before will be due to the global realization of the new intrinsic value of silver due to the never before seen consumption of it as an industrial metal.
It is the combined timing of this new rarity of available silver on planet Earth, with the unfolding events of the west-to-east transference of wealth, and the unfolding global return to metal as money that have set up the soon to be witnessed triggering of what has been referred to in this book as The Silver Bomb. The price of silver is low…right now. It is about to go up at a rate that can and will only happen once in history. The release of this book, or others like it that address the same topic, may have an effect in the further acceleration of the paradigm shift towards awareness about the new rarity and therefore the new relative built-in value of silver. That has been a great portion of the drive to deliver this information into the hands of as many as possible, and as quickly as possible, even though doing so could actually shorten the time-frame of the present window of opportunity to take advantage of the simple, practical recommendations herein.
Now is the time. It is the time of all times to go long on precious metals and particularly to go long on silver. It is time to buy physical precious metal and actually hold it in your possession. It is time to put every resource that can that can reasonably be used into silver. History tells us there will be price fluctuation and as we have seen, ALL markets are currently rigged and subject to wild volatility due to massive manipulation. These manipulated fluctuations are all based on the exertions of a central banking cartel whose goal is to hide the truth and perpetuate the paper dollar fraud as long as possible. The game has changed however, with the global economic shift to the east, and that western banker cartel influence will soon end. Pay no attention to price volatility in the interim. The change that is described as The Silver Bomb, will be unmistakably different from any of the present or even historical price fluctuations. If you buy silver one day and the next it drops 20%, don't let this shake you because that 20% loss is measured off of the current illusion of wealth; the US dollar, which again, with all other currencies and assets that are denominated in dollars, is going to crash. It is at that point that those with physical metal, especially silver in hand are going to be the new RICH of the new era. Don't look back in other words. Buy it will both fists now and don't look back.

GFFI - DLLs Done Right
Ever wished that Game Maker's dll system wasn't so limited? Four string arguments not enough? Want to pass an argument that's not a double? Sick of having to compile a dll to wrap a single measly WinAPI function? GFFI might be what you've been looking for.
FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. In plain English, GFFI essentially adds new "builtin" functions to your game which provide better dll functionality. As well as supporting C-style char* strings and double, it also supports all the other basic C data types such as: char, int, long, float etc. On top of this, you can even work with C arrays and structs from Game Maker - it's possible to both create them and read existing ones returned by a dll. Overall, the functionality provided is similar to Python's ctypes module and .NET's P/Invoke system.
Usage is simple, simply merge the provided file with your game. Empty scripts are provided to keep the syntax checker happy, they also contain documentation. The actual functions are "injected" by the GFFI dll using parts of Gmapi when the game runs. For those of you wondering about performance, it should be close to external_call. There is a small amount of overhead because everything is dynamic, but all the typecasting to and from double is normally manually done anyway in a handwritten wrapper .
Probably the biggest limitation is Game Maker's 16 argument limit. This means most of the time, defining a dll function is limited to functions with 13 or fewer arguments. I can add extended functions using ds_list if the need is there, but most of the time 13 is an excessive amount of arguments anyway. The second "limitation" is that this dll cannot interact with .NET assemblies (which aren't really true dlls anyway). Game Maker is not truly object oriented and so it's essentially impossible to do this. There's a .NET layer dll floating around that can work around the problem by calling a static function in a handwritten wrapper assembly.
A big thanks to GearGOD and Messy Mind for hosting, you can download it >Here<. Source is included, it's licensed under LGPL so it's usable in commercial games.
I hope people find this DLL useful, I used it as an opportunity to learn some C (and then hastily tacked on a C++ library). I've included a few basic examples of usage - it's perfect for making a few WinAPI calls without writing an ad-hoc wrapper dll.
Update: GM8 was released shortly after I posted this. I've added GM8 support to Version 1.1

NetEvents Day 1: Artificial Intelligence, Business Intelligence and CyberSecurity Intelligence
Saratoga, Calif., Sept. 21, 2016 — Reporters from around the globe wore out the keyboards on their laptops taking notes at the NetEvents Global Press & Analyst Summit, held here in a beautiful mountaintop winery resort. With keynotes and panel debates focused on everything from artificial intelligence to cloud computing to the Internet of Things, the program was packed – and the information was flowing as freely as the morning coffee.
Kick-Off Keynote
Manek Dubash, the master of ceremonies for the NetEvents Summit, introduced the first discussion, which was on "Artificial Intelligence: Out of the Futurists' Lab, Into the Real World."
The first part of the AI discussion was by Kathryn Hume, president of Fast Forward Labs, who framed AI as a series of stories. She explained that just as in Aesop's Fables, the story depends on the teller. In this case, one can have a mental model for how AI algorithms work by thinking about fables, in other words, the problem that the AI is trying to solve – and then how it solves that problems.
Ms. Hume explained that in all markets, the earliest apps are rarely killer apps – and AI is no exception. However, while analysts and experts can't predict killer apps, they can hone their ability to spot future game-changers and pivot to take advantage of them.
An example of this, Ms. Hume explained, is with natural language generation. At first, people thought that AI-based natural language would be used to, say, automatically generate news stories in a journalistic style, such as having software write a website news story based on sports data. While there certainly have been successes there, that turned out to be a niche market. Instead, natural language generation has proven to be good at helping summarize a lot of data for human consumption. Think about how a raft of numbers (such as raw sales data) can be turned into a spreadsheet or table, which adds some meaning. That data could be translated into a chart or graph or dashboard, which adds more meaning. But what if software could translate that into the textual "Sales increased in the last quarter"? That's AI in action.
Another example she used is of AI to analyze X-rays; today, image recognition processing can do in 104 seconds what would take a human radiologist a full month. Imagine the impact on health care when such technology becomes more widespread.
The moral of the story, she said: We are at the beginning of an AI revolution. We aren't sure where it's going, but there's a massive opportunity if we focus on where the technology is succeeding in this early stage market.
Ms. Hume was followed by Stuart McClure, an inventor and founder of AI-based cybersecurity company Cylance. Mr. McClure explained that what AI is good at is categorizing things – in the case of Cylance, about whether something (such as an executable file) is good (i.e., safe) or bad (i.e., malicious).
How do you do that? Training with lots of data sets. He used the example of determining whether an adult is a male or female. There are some indicators, some features, you can train software. Hair length? Odds are that if the hair is long, it's a woman, if short, then a man – but of course, there are exceptions. Facial hair? If there's a beard, it's likely to be a man, no facial hair, less likely to be male, but of course, there are exceptions (many men are clean-shaven). And so on. A human might use a few features to make decisions – but AI technologies might use hundreds, thousands or even millions of features to learn patterns. With that type of power, AI can learn to make some impressive decisions – categorizing more data much faster than humans, and potentially with greater accuracy.
Following Mr. McClure's presentation, he and Ms. Hume were interviewed on stage by Paul Jackson, Principal Analyst, Digital Media, at Ovum.
First Debate
Continuing the theme of cybersecurity and AI, the first NetEvents debate panel was "Ransomware, Spear-Phishing and Worse — Defending Against the Unstoppable." The panel was introduced and moderated by Andrew Braunberg, Managing Director, Research, at NSS Labs.
The panelists were Bryan Gale from Cylance; Greg Fitzgerald from Javelin Networks; Greg Maudsley from Menlo Security; Greg Enriquez from TrapX Security; and Frank Weiner from Wedge Networks.
The panel discussed that ransomware is a huge problem and is becoming bigger. Technologically, there's nothing particular new about ransomware; like many other attacks, it requires that some type of executable code gets onto a client, whether from a bad email attachment, malicious website, or another source. What's unusual about ransomware is that the attackers have found a way to easily monetize the attack: "We have encrypted your data, pay us money or you'll never see your data again."
Given the success of malware the attack is spreading, and now is even available as "ransomware as a service," where anyone can launch an attack, even without highly technical skills. The answers, the panel agreed, consist of a multilayered defense. There is no one single approach, and an organization that wants to defend itself against ransomware attacks needs to look at everything on the market.
Second Debate
From the tech suite from the exec suite with the second debate panel, "From Rule-of-Thumb to Smart Data-Driven Businesses: The CEO/CIO Software Toolkit for Success." Introduced and chaired by Dean Takahashi, a reporter with VentureBeat, the panel looked at the problem with information overload. From financial and inventory reports from the ERP system and a flood of roll-up spreadsheets, to documents and an unmanageable flow of messages, it's too much. If information is the lifeblood of business, decision makers are drowning. It's gone from helping make decisions and driving productivity, to harming efficiency and making it harder — not easier — to understand the business.
The panel consisted of Guillaume Amaud of Anaplan, Jim McNiel of NetScout, Rob Pickering of ServiceNow, and David Gurle of Symphony Communications.
The solution, the panel discussed that real-time decision support needs tools, like the cloud. It needs security for trust and compliance. It needs to go beyond dashboards to help employees know what they need to know when they need to know. Promising technologies include AI techniques such as machine learning, predictive forecasting and natural language. As the panel said, if you can frame your business problems, you can use those technologies efficiencies to help humans do their job better.
A key is size. The panel quoted the "law of big numbers" – you need a scale, a quantity of data to help use technology to make decisions. But if smaller companies have the data, they can go head-to-head against the biggest players.
Third Debate
Jean-Baptiste Su, technology columnist for Forbes, moderated "Unicorns, Baby Unicorns and Other Tech Leaders — Who Are They, Where Do They Go From Here?" His panel had Guillaume Amaud of Anaplan, Gregg Holzrichter of Big Switch Networks, Stuart McClure from Cylance, and David Gurle of Symphony.
In his introduction, Mr. Su explained that there are 175 unicorns – companies with over a billion dollars in valuation – most of which are in Silicon Valley. He noted, however, that the number of unicorns is shrinking – and this is a challenging time for companies to grow and succeed at that scale.
To get to size quickly, companies need hypergrowth, and the panelists insisted that if you want hypergrowth, you have to hyperspent. That means, of course, getting big fast, driving revenue. This might mean always flirting with profitability, but at this stage, the goal is to plough the money back in, rather than take money out.
The panel advised always that you never say "no" to more money, even if you aren't actively looking for funding – because you never know when you might need the money. And when you do need more money, it may not be available at that moment. So take it when you can get it.
Some investors want their companies to double-down on growth and get as big as possible as fast as possible. Others advise executives and founders not to burn up their nest egg. In all cases, founders need to seize opportunities, look for partners, and never let something good pass you by.
Why is Silicon Valley special? Sure, there are opportunities elsewhere, where there's little competition from the likes of Google and the huge array of companies in Northern California. That said, there is still something unique here in the Valley – institutions, capital, human capital. Sure, there is competition for talent, but the nexus of capital and entrepreneurial spirit gives Silicon Valley and its companies a competitive advantage.
Fourth Debate
"Let's Redefine the Internet of Things: IoT Means Internet of Profits!" That's the catchy name for the debate panel chaired by Tam Dell'Oro, Founder and President of the Dell'Oro Group. Her panel was Milind Pansare of Aerohive; Tom Ramar of H3 Dynamics; and Will Wise of the IoT Institute.
Tradition service-provider and carrier businesses are shrinking – which can mean declining revenue and declining spending. This panel talked about new opportunities for unlocking new markets and opportunities, such as package delivery, smart connected cars, and convenience businesses – all driven by the Internet of Things.
The challenge is organization dynamics: How quickly can service providers (and all companies, in fact) adapt to these new technologies? They need to understand how it will change their life and their customers' lives. How it will create threats and opportunities. How it will redefine their business model. In some cases, there may be regulatory issues, like there are with cars and drones.
The IoT is all about devices talking to devices, often using Internet protocols. The IoT can allow startups to disrupt established giants with innovative business models, because the established company can't threaten its established revenue streams – but a startup or new market entrant can do so.
IoT is also about connecting networks of networks. For example, a car has an internal network with many sensors and local intelligence tied together with its own LAN. In the IoT world, you can leverage that and powerful algorithms to create new capabilities – especially when you link it to other networks, such as the cloud. Then you can add in analytics, AI, and new services.
For service providers, there's an opportunity to go beyond providing connectivity to leverage those IoT networks at scale to create new managed services.
you don't know today what you're going to need for network features and capacity a year from now – so design and architect that way. A challenge, of course, is to measure the ROI for these initiatives. The panel pointed out that there aren't good academic models that can be applied to disruptive technologies like the IOT – so the best advice is to deploy and try and learn as you go.
Awards and More!
The remainder of the first day of the NetEvents summit included the Shark Tank presentations and awards for companies in the IoT and Cloud Innovation categories. More about that in a separate entry!

Buddies for Life or Just a Glory Item?
What do people mean when say that they own a pet? Do they mean that they have a companion in their life other than humans or that they want to add another show piece to their house?
But why just care about your own pets? Why not protect the whole animal kingdom which cannot be adopted or are not lucky enough to become pets.
Some people adopt them just to add beauty to their house but just don't keep them as a decoration item rather make them you family member.
A dog lying in an AC in a hot summer day or a dog locked in his cage outside the house. The dogs have a higher body temperature than humans. They tend to feel more heat and this can cause damage to their organs. When we own a pet they become our responsibility.
Their personal care, protection and hygiene are very important, but there are some things which are more important than these. Peep into the following points, it might help you know your pet a bit more:
Festivals are a big "no-no" for your pets-
Remember that your celebrations of festivals do not impact your pets. Loud sound of crackers or fire, animals are sacred of these. You might like to play 'holi' with them but that's also a big no. They are allergic to colors. So yes we should treat them as family member but certain things are not meant for them
Don't make them sleep with you-
It is important that your pets should have their own beds. You might want to make them sleep with you in your own bed but "no". Pets have different kind of bugs in their body which might infect you. So general pet safety tips to all the pet owners make them sleep in their own bed.
Don't serve them from your plate-
Pet's intake of food is far different from us. That are not allowed the food that we eat but yes, animals are like children. They too want that thing which they are not allowed to. So, make it a practice that you don't serve them your food from the very beginning.
Show them the love-
Pets are the only species in the world who will always reciprocate more love than the amount given to them. They are not meant to be kept as an ornament in the house locked in their cage; they too need freedom just like us. Set them free atleast in your own house. Putting a leash around their neck does not make them pets.
Serve them ice-
Yes, pets love ice. Try serving them one and they will surely pass their time playing with it.in summers, ice are a big favorite of your pets.
A bubble bath-
Let your pets have a picnic time once a month. Bring them a mini pool, and let them have a gala time. Your pets surely will enjoy this time and won't be out before an hour. This will make them refresh and they will surely not run away from their any time in future if you make this more fun for them.
Pets want to feel loved and we have to offer them foods for healthy life. And only we can help them make so. So, do not bring them home just to add glory or to pass your time. They require much more than your time.

How To Choose A Luxury Watch
So you've come to that point in your life and made the decision to buy yourself a luxury watch and kudos to you for that, but don't buy anything until you have read my ultimate guide to buying watches. While some of my readers will be well versed in the art of shopping online so may not need all this help, there will be many who need sound advice to help guide their watch purchasing decisions.
Online Retailing
A Pew Research study concluded 79% of Americans prefer to do their shopping online driven more by cost saving than convenience which means 8 in every 10 people choose to use e-commerce over regular stores. Another interesting conclusion from the study was that frequent online shoppers were more likely to buy without making a price comparison.
Of course, I know my readers would never consider buying a watch online without doing their homework and looking for price comparisons, right? No, I thought not. Another thing that's really important is being able to ask questions and just because you're buying online doesn't mean you this should change.
Why am I throwing this at you now? Well, I want you to know that it's important to compare prices, ask questions, take advice, and read reviews before making any decisions. Now that's out of the way, let's get on with it.
The Best Watch For Me.
The question of "which watch is best for me" is impossible to answer because there are so many variables the only way to get close to an answer, is to ask as many questions as possible and try to understand your own finite needs of function and tastes. Let's look at some pressing questions we need ask to get the ball rolling because choosing a watch is a very personal choice that only you can make the final decision.
Q1. Why do I want a watch?
Q2. What type of watch do I want?
Q3. What features do I need?
Q4. How much do I need/want to spend?
Initially, these questions may seem somewhat ridiculous particularly if you already have the answers, and if that's the case then you're ahead of the curve here. If you're not quite there yet and just thinking about buying your first luxury watch then try to answer these questions before moving any further. First, ask yourself 'Why do I want a watch', because once you have an idea why you want a watch you can start to understand 'What type of watches to look at'. For example, you may just want a nice watch, but ask yourself 'Where will you be wearing it' Will it be at work, a social event, are you wanting to go diving or skiing, or perhaps you do a lot of business travel, so different features may be more useful to you depending on the purpose of the watch.
When you have an idea of why you want the watch, what type of watch it needs to be, you can start looking at the features you need or prefer, and this can give you a good idea of which brand to look at and the budget you will need. We will be looking at all these important steps in greater detail in the section below, but for now, I just want you to take a few minutes to think about these initial concepts.
Gnothi Seauton
From ancient Greek meaning 'know thyself" probably something every one of us could give more consideration to throughout our busy lives. How often during one single day do you make a decision and not even think about it? You probably don't remember or lost count along the way, but it just shows how reactionary we have to be just to keep up with modern life. Choosing your perfect watch is an exercise in knowing thyself, only you can truly know what makes you happy and to know that, you need to ask yourself searching questions.
Final Notes
Now you're read through the sections giving you a run through of the basics of making a big decision, you should be better positioned to make an informed decision and avoid any disappointment or negative experiences. While the process of online shopping has many advantages not least the cost advantage, there's one area where it comes up short in comparison with bricks and mortar shops.
Trying Before You Buy
Well, unfortunately, it has to be said this is something that online shopping lacks and that is a great shame when comes to shopping for luxury items like watches. In my view, I'd say the savings outweigh the negative impact of not having the opportunity to try the watch on before making the decision, however, I would say, if it's possible to visit a retail store in your city it would be a good idea to ask to try your desired model to get a feel.
Asking Questions
You should always be able to ask questions and feel happy with the sales agents knowledge base that instill confidence in both them and their product, for example, is the watch designed and built in-house at the watchmaker's premises? While this is quite a rarity because most manufacturers use partners or 3rd parties in the manufacture of their products it's still a valid question. In fact, as an example "Swiss Made" is defined as "the movement has been assembled in Switzerland and, the movement has been inspected by the manufacturer in Switzerland and; the components of Swiss manufacture account for at least 50 percent of the total value, without taking into account the cost of assembly"
Another interesting idea in horology is the idea of jewels and the number that's considered acceptable. I wanted to mention this because in my view the number of jewels has become something of a snob factor meaning the more jewels your watch has the better. The thing is, jewels are used as bearings where moving parts rub against each other to produce wear and eventually failure which used to a bigger problem in the past than now. The truth is materials technology has improved so jewels are no longer needed as they were in previous generations, or at least not to the same extent, so boasting about the number of jewels is really an outdated idea.
How To Make The Buying Decision
You now know why you want a watch, where you're wearing it, what features or complications you want, the best brand for you, and the probable cost of making your purchase. The decision has probably been made so you're either dropping the whole idea or steaming ahead with it and need to find the best place to buy your perfect watch at the best price possible.
The final piece of the puzzle is finding an online watch store you can trust and happy to hand over your hard earned cash, so where do you start?
Where To Buy Watches
With dozens of online watch stores, some of them are genuine discount stores and others that are simply online stores with fewer overheads making them better priced than their bricks and mortar competitors, it's difficult to know. That's why discount watch stores have researched some of the best known online watch stores to bring you reviews, personal opinions, and real customer feedback from real customers that have used the online stores. Using these details the best online stores may be awarded the discount watch stores seal of approval signifying good quality products, good prices, and excellent customer services.
To start your journey of discovery you can start looking through the watch store comparisons page before you make your final decision, go forth and buy your dream timepiece.
So, if you're looking for the perfect Watch at the perfect price, from a trusted source, you know it can be a stressful experience, with the right help and advice, you too can find your dream timepiece. As I'm considered an expert in my field and I write for other publications like Wrist Review I know you'll benefit from my experience and avoid the pitfalls.
Read My Best Discount Watch Stores Reviews
I hope you found this guide useful if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me with any concerns or comments. Your thoughts are always welcome and together we can produce the perfect watch buyers guide for anyone looking to fulfill their dream of owning a luxury watch but don't know where to start.

Make no mistake about it, if you are looking for live gay sex entertainment on the internet, you really have your work cut out for you. It would seem like finding live gay sex is not that big of a deal. It might seem like it's a slam dunk considering the huge amount of dudes out there putting on gay webcam shows.
If you're looking for a guy sucking off a stud or getting drilled up the ass, it may seem like you're looking for something that is fairly common. It may seem like you're looking for something that is easy to come by. But the problem is, of course, one of quantity versus quality.
While it's true that there are lots of live gay sex feeds and streams available online, it's also true that not all of them are good. In fact, it only takes a few minutes of checking out what's available to come to the sad conclusion that a lot of them flat out suck. So if you are serious about finding the very best in live gay sex entertainment and live man on man entertainment, you really have to safeguard your time. Gay cam sites are the safe bet, but let's though talk about the topic as a whole.
If you are like the typical busy person from all over the world, you understand and know full well that your time is at a premium. Time is a luxury. You probably have so many other things you could be doing than just basically slogging through one gay sex website after another. And it gets pretty boring really quickly. It gets old.
You have to get the maximum bang for every second of effort you put into looking for live gay sex. This is why you have to have standards. You really do. You can't just look at this as a volume game.
You can't think that just because you've seen one type of live gay sites, you've pretty much seen them all. No. If you think that way, you're setting the bar too low and you're really selling yourself short. You deserve the best. Allow yourself to believe that. Allow yourself to act like it because, otherwise, you're just going to be settling. You're just going to be settling for substandard man on man action featuring dudes who don't know what the fuck they are doing using equipment that is laughable and everybody ends up just wasting their time.
If you want the very best in all male entertainment, you have to insist on the very best. This is why you need to pay attention to the following 8 hallmarks of high quality live gay sex entertainment. If too many of these factors are missing, get out of that website. You probably would be better off finding other sites. Do yourself a favor, save your time. Make sure you get maximum return on effort regardless of what you do online. Your time is precious. Once you spend a minute doing something, you're not going to get that minute back.
Make the best use of your time by making sure that you only check out the very best live gay sex channels. Here are the 7 hallmarks of high quality, all-male live channels aka as gay webcams sites.
1. Great Selection of Dudes
You may not be big into looks, but if you're looking for muscle guys or bears or twinks or any other type of male erotic entertainer, then you need to insist on selection.
Don't assume some sort of beggar position where you basically will be thankful for whatever the live gay sex platform throws you. You're not doing yourself any favors. You're more valuable than that. You have a right to insist on the kind of dudes that turn you on.
So if you're into twinks, make sure that there is enough selection on the website that you are considering. The same applies to any other type of gay "genre." If you're into older dudes, black guys, interracial, bears, you name it. You have to make sure that the guys presented actually fit the profile. Otherwise, you probably would be wasting your time.
2. Great Lighting
The action might be hot, the intensity might be overwhelming, but if the lighting sucks, all of that intensity and heat go out the window. The action might even feature really hot guys, but none of that matters if you can barely see anything. Insist on great lighting.
Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that the lighting has to be exactly like GQ lighting, but the lighting in gay cam shows has to be good enough for you to fully enjoy the action.
3. Non-cluttered Settings
You'd be surprised as to how careless many producers of live gay sex shows are. They think that just because they featured two dudes going at it that the guys watching the footage wouldn't really care about the background. Well, you have to understand that the background does take away from the action taking place in the foreground.
You might have these two hot dudes nailing each other with raw, relentless, unforgiving, intense, hot ferocity, but if you have trash all over the place or the camera angles are all fucked up, then it's very easy for the visual "clutter" to get the better of the scene.
4. The Guys are Really Into It
When you look at the footage of dudes nailing each other, sucking each other off, giving each other rim jobs, they have to be really into it. While it's true that a lot of live gay sex stream performers are really straight guys who are just in it for the money, they have to at least look like they're having a good time.
We're not just talking about having a good time like somebody's thinking about the payday at the end of the scene. No. They have to really get into it. They have to really get all excited. Now, this doesn't mean that the guy has to be all smiles, sweet and all soft. No. A lot of guys are not into that. They're looking for guys as in hard, man on man action. They guy looks intense and is really feeling it, but doesn't go overboard. It's kind of a bit of a tightrope, but you will get it when you see it.
5. Excellent Technique
There's nothing more annoying than a guy banging another dude and it looks like he's just basically stabbing somebody with his meat sword.
You have to understand that whether you're giving or you're receiving, it's all about technique. It's all about the motion in the ocean and, unfortunately, when you watch somebody basically having man on man sex like it's a job, something gets lost in the translation. It's not as hot as it could be and it's all too forgettable.
The whole reason why guys watch live gay sex footage is to really get drawn into it. It is art at that level. And when it's obvious that the person is basically just going through the motions, the lack of technique really gets in the way of everybody's enjoyment of the scene. Gay webcam sites can be tons of fun if you can find a affordable and high quality place for gay cams chat.
6. Genuine Heat
You can tell if two guys are really into each other. Now, this doesn't mean that they're about to get married. This doesn't mean that they are boyfriends, but if they're really into it and you see the eye contact, you see the hard contact and you see the raw intensity of the urgency of the moment, you can't help but get excited. You can't help but be drawn into the heat in the small screen in front of you. If you don't see that, then you probably would be better off looking for other live gay sex platforms.
7. Each Show is Different
Just as it's annoying to see a performer go through the motions, it's also annoying to see performers basically play out their roles according to some sort of template. Each show has to be different. If the show is not different, they you now you're dealing with robotic performers. You probably would be better off doing something else. You would probably be better off spending your time going to another platform. You don't want robotic performance. That's not the kind of entertainment you're looking for. Keep your eyes locked on the hallmarks listed above. The more of these hallmarks appear at a live gay sex platform, the higher the chance that that's exactly the platform you need to hang out at.
