Internet of Things (IoT) is the new frontier in tech. Chief Experience Officers have the tremendous opportunity to seize large market shares by prioritizing IoT experience design, and IoT's rapid deployment will only accelerate as more devices become Wi-Fi enabled.
Internet of Things 2.0 brings these devices into the residential market, as an increasing number of people want to be informed about and connected to the products they purchase. Understanding your customers' needs and motivations is key to creating IoT products that will be successfully adopted. Here are some IoT user experience strategies that work:
UX and CX Starts Day One
Customer experience (CX) begins long before someone makes a purchase. A great user experience is built not just from satisfactory product performance, but also through engagement. So, get your product team and your user experience (UX) team connected.
A great UX team can assist with everything from planning stages through product launch and beyond. It's vital to understand the path that a customer will take with a product and where the IoT system will fit into their work and lives. Your UX team should make customers' needs paramount throughout every stage of design.
An iterative cycle and end-to-end strategy that covers all aspects of the new device also needs to be part of the UX plan. Usability testing should be flexible and tailored to different devices. Don't fall into the one-size-fits-all trap.
Give Users What They Want
Simplicity is key. Keeping IoT simple will increase adoption rates. Types of users vary, so remember to design with users who will be adopting your IoT in mind. Once you've set the standard, it's important to allow customers to personalize their IoT.
Early and iterative usability testing will ensure that all usability issues will be discovered and addressed. Usability issues are particularly frustrating for new users, so be sensitive to their needs. Not all adopters will be familiar with IoT 2.0, and some will need onboarding experiences.
Compatibility and security are customer concerns that should also be addressed on each device. Compatibility needs to be tested across platforms with an emphasis on usability. Security is a primary concern in all design, so be sure your UX testing methodology includes this functionality.
Yes, there are many different considerations when designing for IoT. Why not get the support that you need? Key Lime Interactive helps IoT innovators understand their user base. Our role is to discern your customers' wants and needs and to advocate for them. We ensure that you'll win them over with each new product you launch. Our wide range of services is engineered to take the guesswork out of making customers happy and loyal to your brand. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you.

Nebraska hopes Illinois doesn't pick apart pass defense
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) Nebraska makes its first trip to the Illinois campus since 1986 and the favored Cornhuskers could use a win in the Big Ten opener for both teams.
Fall short on Saturday and Nebraska (2-2) would leave town with a losing record and games against No. 19 Wisconsin and No. 16 Northwestern over the next three weeks.
For an Illinois team (3-1) looking to prove something in a tumultuous season, the game has high stakes, too. To get to a bowl the Illini might have to pull off an upset along the way. A Nebraska team that isn't a direct descendent of the Tom Osborne glory days might be one of their best shots.
The game will be first-year Nebraska coach Mike Riley's Big Ten initiation, and Illinois' passing game could test the suspect Cornhusker pass defense. It is last in the conference, giving up 379.5 yards a game.
''I watch the film and go, `What are we doing here?''' Riley said, explaining that his players have panicked when things go wrong. ''We've got to coach to a point where the confidence, no matter what's going on, we'll play within the principles of what we're doing.''
Interim Illinois coach Bill Cubit, who was promoted when player-abuse allegations led to the firing of Tim Beckman a week before the season, nonetheless sees the favored Cornhuskers as a serious challenge.
''Hopefully we get a nice crowd out there,'' Cubit said. ''We're going to have to play really well. We understand that.''
Some things to watch Saturday:
When the teams played at Nebraska in 2014, the Illinois offense was limited without injured quarterback Wes Lunt and the defense could not stop the Cornhuskers. The result was a 45-14 Nebraska romp. Ameer Abdullah ran for 208 yards and three touchdowns.
''I remember we started off really well and went down and scored and it fell apart from there,'' Lunt said.
Cubit said he believes this Illini team is better, and one big reason is the protection in front of Lunt. Illinois has given up one sack a game so far.
The coach also thinks his defense is better, too, and will be focused on quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. Last season, the Illini were last in The Big Ten or close to it in a number of defensive categories. This season they are a solid seventh in total defense at 306 yards a game and second in preventing third-down conversions, allowing them 21.3 percent of the time. The Illini also have forced eight turnovers.
Nebraska linebacker Chris Weber believes that, while the Cornhuskers' run defense has been good at just 73.5 yards a game, the team has beaten itself in pass defense. ''I mean, we're stopping the run, but we have to be able to stop the pass if that's what teams are doing,'' he said.
The Cornhuskers are scoring 36.2 points a game, third in the Big Ten. But Riley says they have left a lot of points on the field. ''We actually opened the game with six scoring drives,'' Riley said of last week's 36-28 win over Southern Mississippi. ''The problem was that five of them were field goals.''
Riley said he thought Illinois' offense didn't look much different with Cubit in the head-coaching role. Lunt still throws the ball and Josh Ferguson is the top back. But look for the freshman behind Ferguson on the depth chart to play a significant role, too: Ke'Shawn Vaughn had 80 yards and a touchdown in last Saturday's 27-25 win over Middle Tennessee State, and ''really grew up,'' according to Cubit. On one third-quarter drive, the 205-pound Vaughn carried the ball five straight plays, picking up 21 tough yards.
''For us to get through, Keyshawn's got to be a player for us,'' Cubit said.
Nebraska has not played in Champaign since 1986, but Cornhusker receiver Jordan Westerkamp and his family know their way around Memorial Stadium. Westerkamp's dad, Bob, was a receiver for the Illini in the 1980s. And Jordan Westerkamp helped Montini Catholic High School in Lombard, Illinois, win three state titles on the field in Champaign. In the 2011 game, he caught 12 passes for 353 yards and five touchdowns.
Illinois offered him a scholarship, he said.
''I visited there. I liked it, but when I came (to Nebraska), obviously I liked it better,'' he said.

New signing Jay Spearing believes he has made the 'right move' after completing his loan switch from Bolton Wanderers.
Player of the Year at the Macron Stadium last season, Spearing has found opportunities hard to come by this campaign and was delighted when Rovers came calling.
"I had a few offers from elsewhere," said the 26-year-old midfielder. "But for me personally, this was the right move.
"I spoke to the manager (Neil Lennon) and I wasn't going to fit into the system he wanted to play.
"I obviously want to play, so we both agreed that it was best for me to come here and hopefully get some games.
"It's been difficult recently, but that's part and parcel of the game. That's sometimes that happens when a new manager comes into a club - they have different ideas and ways of playing and that's just something you have to get on with.
"When I first went to Bolton, I was playing week-in week-out and you get used to it.
"I worked hard to get that back, but for one reason or another that wasn't happening, so it was a mutual decision.
"So it had come to the point where it was time for me to move on and get some time out on the pitch.
"Now I've got to impress a new manager and prove that I should be on the field."

The popularity of poker in Malaysia is largely due to the influence of foreigners, but residents who discovered it in Hong Kong, Macau, and the Philippines, where Texas Hold'em and Omaha are popular, have also impacted its growth.
As for online-poker, there are also a few interesting sites/networks to play.
In this article we will present our selection of the best online sites to play while located in Malaysia.
Malaysia Poker Sites FAQs
Is it legal to play online poker in Malaysia?
While technically illegal, online gambling is overlooked in Malaysia. Many inhabitants place bets over the Internet every day, and most of the major international betting sites accept customers from Malaysia. They might go as far as processing deposits and withdrawals in ringgits. It's easy to get paid, make deposits, and play as long as you stick with the up-to-date rooms that offers access to Malaysian players.
There are actually no specific references to online gambling in the Betting Act, and no relevant amendment has yet been made, so the market remains largely unregulated.
Overall, Malaysian police forces are too busy to worry about people playing poker at home on the Internet (or even in private home games). To this day, no local has ever been punished for online poker in Malaysia.
What are the Best Sites to Play Online Poker in Malaysia?
Players are looking for different experiences. Some will favor great software over softer games. Cash Games players and tournaments players also have different needs.
Moreover, in order to be able to maximize all promotions offered by the different sites, players must be willing to open an account on several clients.
For all of these reasons recommending only one site would be a mistake. We prefer to list the pros and cons of each option currently available to Malaysian players in this article.
Our selection of Poker Sites in Malaysia

CMP Website Gets a New Look
- Apr 18, 2018
- Top news
Over the past few months, the CMP staff have been preparing the connectedmath.msu.edu website for a new design.
While the site may look different, the overall structure and tools have remained the same.
The most significant changes occur on the homepage and in the classroom videos.
The homepage content has been simplified into two categories:
- News and Updates
- Highlighted Features
These categories provide the latest content and helpful features found on the website, such as items from Teacher Support.
In addition, Classroom Videos no longer require a login. Website visitors will still be required, however, to agree to the license agreement prior to viewing the videos.
Correlating with CMP's overarching goal, the new design's primary focus is on making the website accessible to ALL.
- Additional tools for screen readers have been added
- Color contrast ratios between text and background text pass WCAG AA standards
- videos will continue to include captioning.
Minor design changes will continue for the next couple of months to improve the overall experience of those visiting our website.

Sadly, I'm pretty disappointed with the way this photo was printed. All parts of the image in shadow are printed so darkly I cannot see any nuance - can't see anything in the bottom right or left side of image. The lovely sun dappled tree on the top right of the photo is unseeable, just dark green. I did not realize that Fine Art America has a return policy till a week after the 30 days was up. I'm curious if this is usual for Fine Art America's print results or if we're just unlucky.

…….and just like that I knew it's not even worth a thought anymore! Last weekend we made it to mount Rainier before they closed the pass for the Winter. Looking at the Mountain from Seattle is mind blowing, standing at the top makes you pray that it won't erupt any time soon, and suddenly I realized that this is it! I can't go higher at this point. This is it. ————I felt almost as happy and free as I do every time going up Denali/Mount McKinley. The evening glow started turning the mountains into gold. It was then when I understood that my soul had said its own good-byes to the pain I still had carried. ——– It just happened. I separated for good from all that hurt in places I never knew I even could hurt. My soul closed its doors for good to years of lies, intimidation, yelling and screaming, and the broken pieces of who I used to be before loving a narcissist in the hope he will change in time. Some demons we can't fight, but we still hope. —— Love does that. Perseverance and hope. I gazed over the valleys and thought of beautiful memories, like the birth of the girls, the birthdays with family and friends, times when the happy days where not yet overshadowed. A couple of days later now it is still the same. I am grateful for it, beyond grateful to what ever set my soul free. Free of guilt for leaving, and also for letting myself sink into that dark place broken people go way too often, and stay too long. I was ashamed no more. The mountains and woods as always nourishing, silent and serene. Never underestimate the power, and strength you have. It's all one. Wisdom, freedom, love and forgiveness is found in those places. God can be found in those places, while feeling one with everything around you. ~~~~~~~~Love and Light to all of you during this Holiday weekend. Simone'

Sounds like your heart's finally let go of the pains you'd been put through, freeing you from the restraints of your past, i had a similar experience like that too back in 2008, and it'd felt like all the weight suddenly, lifted, and i can, finally breathe again…
Thank you as always. It is an amazing feeling to be able to forgive and forget. It is also a strong life-line when the world goes dark again. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!🙏🏻🙏🏻

Filmmaker Sajid Khan, who has directed the successful franchisee "Housefull" and "Housefull 2" himself choose to step out of "Housefull 3", says producer Sajid Nadiadwala.
Asked why Sajid Khan didn't direct "Housefull 3", Nadiadwala said: "Sajid Khan didn't want to because he was busy with 'Himmatwala' then. Besides, this is a difficult genre to write also; after sometime they also say we don't want to because the genre gets saturated so it becomes difficult to edit and make a trailer for this film. Usually, a writer after one or two films gets into a saturation mode."
Eros International and NGE's "Housefull 3", featuring Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, and Lisa Haydon, is directed by Sajid-Farhad and releases on June 3.

Size implies the external region of your home if it is a property and the internal region if it is an apartment.
If you are an ANZ consumer, check with your bank manager – if they mention the PIQ technique, insist that you would choose to organise your personal valuation – we have usually been, and ARE Still accepted by ANZ – and SAVE oneself at least $115.00 and get to talk to your personal senior registered valuer direct. The government authorities in Sydney also seek our compensation associated valuation solutions that are amongst the best in Sydney.
As soon as the contract is prepared and house valuation ordered, the appraiser, typically offered the contract cost, the appraiser proceeds with the valuation of the house. All quite well and good, but the write-up fails to mention that there are two aspect to a valuation – 1 based on statistics (objective) and the other a subjective judgement of the valuer. Properly the most crucial issue in promoting a property in any true estate market place is price. It lies someplace amongst the inferred and the intrinsic technique, and is not a fully autonomous valuation technique.
Most folks consider of insulating their attics and calling it enough, but to really insulate your residence you have to wrap it, and the most hassle-free, efficient and reasonably priced way is to tear off the wood, steel or aluminum wrap and wrap the home in vinyl siding with an insulated foam backer. You can also use the map controls to move to a distinct region of the nation to show typical home valuation bands in that locality. Its horses for courses and the valuation of these aspects are open to interpretation.

I LOVE Fiona's most recent butterfly sculpture!
I went to visit local artists yesterday via North Yorkshire Open Studios (NYOS). This is an annual event that open to the public and a great opportunity to see artists, their work and studio directly. I actually didn't know this scheme existed until this year and recently visited other artists in the similar event. Wow that was fantastic so I could not miss my LOCALS of course.
Spending the most of afternoon, I managed to view 7 artists. They are ceramicists, wire artist, painters etc etc. All unique and so inspirational. I enjoyed getting to know people and peeking their studios - this is a fun bit! Here I would like to introduce those inspiring artsts from near where I live. Please click the link so you can see the images of work and more information.
Fiona Mazza - She is a ceramic artist who mainly focus on butterflies images. Her work are absolute eye candy.
Chris Moss - Wire artist. Her studio and garden were packed with inspiration! She does animals mainly, and her hares in the garden were pure breath-taking.
Eric Moss - He does Raku ceramics and produces numbers of forms that beautifully combine each other, which somewhat reminds me of patterns in nature. He kindly shared me some techniques (which is another great part of open studio!)
Stephanie Black - I met Steph ten years ago when I first studied ceramics (and Yorkshire English!). She was already ahead of us and produced wonderfully thrown pieces. She creates fascinating surface texture on her work.
Charlotte Black - She is a painter who uses interesting materials on her work. Her abstract pieces show very subtle colours yet dynamic movement.
Christine Relton & Tom Marine - They have been collaboratively working together for the past 14 years. I love the way two artists put their spirits and stories together. When I heard how they produce the layers on canvas, I was utterly brown away. And the studio! Looove the space.
Splash of colours! Christine & Tom's beautiful studio

BUJUMBURA March 4th (ABP) – The coordinator of the "Readiness" project of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in Burundi, Mr. Olivier Abayisenga said in Bujumbura on Friday night that this project expects in the future to mobilize Burundi public sectors around the national climate action.
According to him, it is a preparatory project for the coordination of initiatives for access to the Green Climate Fund (GCF) for Burundi, said Mr. Abayisenga during a press briefing he held at the end of the closing of works of a training session on VCF mechanisms.
Launched in 2010 in Cancun (Mexico) and officially created in 2011, the GCF has since been considered the main multilateral instrument for financing climate actions.
Mr. Abayisenga indicated that this training session was organized for the inter-ministerial committee bringing together the different Burundi ministries characterize by a "certain vulnerability" in relation to the issue of climate change.
These ministries, he said, include those with Environment, Finance, Energy, Health, Trade and Good Governance in their attributions. Those ministries are said to be "vulnerable" because the effects of climate change affect their daily activities in relation to the missions assigned to them.
He was pleased with the main results achieved by this training session; because, for the moment, they have mastered the functioning of the GCF, in this case the appropriate form for the setting up of projects.
The UNDP-Burundi Readiness Project, he noted, is also very satisfied in that the results achieved by the training session are in line with expectations.
The added value of the GCF, he stressed, is that compared to other international mechanisms for financing climate activities, this Fund is in the process of positioning itself as a one-stop-shop for the financing of least developed countries (LDCs) in the climate field.

Texans' Watt always on prowl to find place to strike
Watt always on prowlto find a vulnerablespot to strike offense
The green light is always on for Texans star defensive end J.J. Watt, the owner of rare, sweet freedom to roam around the line of scrimmage and line up wherever he feels he can make the greatest impact.
From snap to snap, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year analytically searches for the most vulnerable weak point in a blocking scheme.
That means Watt might line up at his traditional left defensive end spot stacked against the offensive right tackle's outside shoulder, shift to the other side at right end, or shoot through the center-guard gap against interior linemen overmatched by his power and athleticism.
Because of the faith Texans defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel has placed in Watt, the 6-5, 290-pound, three-time Pro Bowl selection thoroughly enjoys how he's deployed in an aggressive 3-4 defensive scheme.
"It's a lot of fun," said Watt, who had similar license to use his instincts under former Texans defensive boss Wade Phillips. "It takes awhile to build that trust, and I'm very fortunate that Romeo's put that trust in me. I have a lot of great teammates who also fit well into everything that we're doing and understand everything that we're doing, and it's a blast.
"That's why I love this game. You can go out there and make plays from all over against all different guys, and you never really know where I'm coming from."
High praise indeed
Exploding out of a three-point stance with his hand in the dirt or a two-point stance similar to that of Hall of Fame New York Giants outside linebacker Lawrence Taylor, Watt has 57 sacks, 12 forced fumbles and 37 passes defended in four NFL seasons.
Because of Watt's blend of size, speed, relentlessness and an uncanny ability to diagnose offenses, Crennel feels comfortable giving him a lot of rope as a pass rusher and run-stopper. That's because Watt rarely is caught out of position and registered 20½ sacks last season.
"It's a total combination of the way he studies the game, because I think a lot of players can study the opponent and have an idea of what's coming, but everybody doesn't have equal ability," Crennel said. "He's got a great combination of ability, work habits, study habits, instincts."
Watt hasn't done this alone. Defensive end Jared Crick is his partner in crime, working in tandem with Watt to execute line stunts to confuse opponents.
"Crick is really good at what he does," Watt said. "There's times where it doesn't have to be a look or a hand signal. Through the middle of a play, he can see me do something and knows that he needs to come around.
"It's pretty awesome to have a guy like that who can really make you right, and he's really good at his job. Our lockers are right next to each other. I think we just developed that chemistry over time."
Heading into Sunday's regular-season opener against Kansas City at NRG Stadium, Chiefs coach Andy Reid compared Watt favorably to Reggie White, one of the NFL's all-time-great defensive ends for the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers.
Reid was part of the Packers' coaching staff under Mike Holmgren when White helped them win a Super Bowl.
"He's one of those big guys that played about that far off the ground and could go full speed," Reid said of White. "J.J.'s got that same type of thing. He's not quite as big as Reggie was, but he's big enough, and he's a good football player.
"They move him all over. There's not one place he's going to be over and over. They're going to move him up and down the line and inside and outside. He's a good athlete and a smart player. He keeps leverage, and he's relentless. He keeps bringing it."
K.C. line a patchwork
So did White, whose famous bull rush allowed him to flatten offensive tackles. White died at 43 of heart problems and sleep apnea at his North Carolina home. He was a 13-time Pro Bowl selection who had 198 career sacks and 33 forced fumbles.
"I'm extremely honored and humbled to be in the same sentence as a guy like Reggie, especially coming from an NFL head coach," Watt said. "He knows what he's talking about, so that means a lot.
"After only four years in my career, to be even in the same sentence much less the same breath as a guy like Reggie, it's a massive honor."
Watt has emerged as the scourge of quarterbacks around the league, preying on weak offensive tackles and indecisive passers who make the mistake of holding on to the football too long.
Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith is fairly mobile. However, he was sacked 45 times last season. And his offensive line has been overhauled. Disappointing former top overall pick Eric Fisher is shifting to right tackle from left tackle, with Donald Stephenson replacing him at left tackle. The Chiefs are starting a rookie at center in Mitch Morse, and Canadian import Laurent Duvernay-Tardif is making his first NFL start Sunday.
A caged animal
Given that the Chiefs are in transition with their blockers, Watt has watched old tape of the players at their respective positions.
"We'll go back and look at some of the film of each guy in the position that they will be playing," Watt said. "In some cases, there may not be that. You have to also go out there with the mentality of play your game, do what you do, and don't really let all that affect you."
Because Watt was held out of preseason games for precautionary reasons, he hasn't played in a game since Dec. 28, a season-ending win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. That has left him eager to hit a quarterback.
"That would be the understatement of the century," Watt said. "It's like an animal in a cage. I think on Sunday they're finally going to open up the cage for me, and I can't wait. I'm pretty hungry."

Anyone who watches Futurama knows that Bender loves beer. They even used him to brew it in one episode. Well, you know that saying about how life imitates art? Yeah, this is definitely one of those cases.
Meet the 'Beer Brewing Bender,' a home-brewing machine that's got a computer for a brain—with an actual MOS 6502 processor, just like in the show.
Bender's body is made from medium-density fiberboard and covered in cardboard that's coated with fiberglass. The eyes, head, and feet are polystyrene balls cut in half, and the legs are PVC.
The 'brain' is a computer built from 70s and 80s parts, and old audio chips allow Bender to say pre-recorded phrases. The whole thing is connected to a remote control, which looks just like the remote from the show and makes him talk when you press a button.
You can find a very detailed description of the building process, along with tons more photos and circuit diagrams on the project page.

Do we have a good one for you today – the new curved LG G Flex 2 goes up against the all metal Huawei Ascend Mate 7. Both devices have nothing to apologize for in the looks department – the G Flex 2 has its curved body, battery and display and the Ascend Mate 7 has its small bezels and metal backing – giving both devices a solid build and a premium look.
These two devices do have a few things in common – they both are considered a large, or phablet style smartphone. They both use an Octa-Core processor and 2GB of RAM with 16GB of internal storage, although both models include a microSD care slot to add additional storage. Both devices also have a 13MP sensor for the main camera and the usual Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, a speaker on the back panel and a microUSB port for charging and data transfer.
Please take a look over the detailed Specifications Comparison below and spot the differences. After that, we will look at each individual device and point out their pros and cons in our quest to pick a winner in this comparison.
LG G Flex 2
When LG introduced us to the first LG G Flex, it was met with mixed emotions and at that time was compared to the Samsung Galaxy Round. The G Flex was curved from top to bottom while the Galaxy Round curved from left to right. Neither device and their curves were completely understood by the public. Samsung's Galaxy Round never left the Asian market, but LG released theirs in select markets and the users in the US seemed to covet the device with its curved back, battery and display. The LG G Flex 2 is a true upgrade from the first device, in terms of display quality and specifications.
LG shortened the 6-inch display on the original G Flex to 5.5-inches, which seems to make the device easier to hold and store in your pocket. Most importantly, LG went from a meager HD display resolution to a FHD resolution giving the new G Flex 2, 1920 x 1080 pixels and 403 pixels-per-inch (PPI)…better than the 6-inch 368 PPI on the Ascend Mate 7. LG also put in the most advanced 64-bit processor that Qualcomm produces, the Snapdragon 810 octa-core clocked at 2GHz and 1.5GHz – a bit of a jump from the Kirin octa-core in the Mate 7. They both use 2GB of RAM and both devices offer 16GB of internal storage, however, both devices have a microSD card slot to increase that storage – theoretically to 2TB in the G Flex 2 and 64GB in the Mate 7.
The cameras use the same sensor size at 13MP – the G Flex 2 adds their Laser autofocus, dual-tone LED Flash and OIS+, whereas the Mate 7 uses the standard autofocus and no OIS or dual flash. The G Flex 2 has a 2.1MP front-facing camera (FFC) and the Mate 7 uses a larger 5MP FFC for selfies and video chatting. The 3000mAh battery of the G Flex 2 cannot compare to the 4100mAh battery in the Mate 7…both are non-removable.
Besides the usual features we listed above, the LG G Flex 2 does add Dolby Mobile for better sound, an FM Stereo Radio, a self-healing back, Quick Charge 2.0 and a built-in IR Blaster. It is running Android 5.0.1 Lollipop from the box with LG's UI running over top. It will be available on AT&T, Sprint and US Cellular at this point and will cost you approximately $300 on a two-year contract and $650 off-contract. It should be available sometime in February.
Huawei Ascend Mate 7
The Ascend Mate 7 comes with a 6-inch FHD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and 368 PPI – a very good display, but not quite up to the FHD display on the G Flex 2, which is one-half smaller, has OLED technology, and has 403 PPI. The Ascend Mate 7 also uses Huawei's Hisilicon Kirin 925 octa-core processor clocked at 1.8GHz (4-cores) and 1.3GHz (4-cores). This is a very good processor, but the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 in the G Flex 2 has many advanced features that just outclass the Kirin 925. The Ascend Mate 7 uses the same 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory, although there is a microSD Card slot to add an additional memory in both devices.
The Ascend Mate 7 has the same size 13MP sensor as the G Flex 2, however, where the Mate 7 has an autofocus and LED flash, the G Flex 2 has their Laser autofocus, dual-tone LED Flash and OIS+. The Ascend Mate 7 does have a rather large 5MP FFC compared to the 'usual' 2.1MP found on the G Flex 2 and will allow excellent selfies and video chatting. The battery in the Ascend Mate 7 is a huge 4100mAh and will give you excellent battery life over the 3000mAh battery found on the G Flex 2.
It also comes with a fingerprint scanner, and will work on the GSM and LTE networks of T-Mobile and the HSPA+ on AT&T – but be sure to check the bands in detail before you purchase one. It is running Android 4.4 KitKat with EMUI 3.0 over top and will run you approximately $600.
…And The Winner Is…
I have to go with the LG G Flex 2 as the winner of this comparison. The 5.5-inch display is a little easier to handle and the OLED display technology just has a brighter and more vivid look to it than the LCD technology found on the Ascend Mate 7. The Snapdragon 810 is 64-bit and has more firepower and technology built-in to it than the Kirin processor. The main camera has the built-in OIS+, Laser autofocus and a dual-tone LED flash. While the 3000mAh battery is smaller than the Mate 7's huge 4100mAh battery, it should still get you through an entire day. The Quick Charge is a nice feature, as is the self-healing back and IR Blaster. It also comes with the newest Android 5.0.1 Lollipop and its LTE can be used on all US networks. It will run you about $300 for a two-year contract and about $650 off contract.
The Huawei Ascend Mate 7 is an excellent device, and if the curved display of the G Flex 2 does not excite you, the 6-inch Mate 7 should not disappoint you. It is not a 'cheap Chinese device,' but a well-made, higher spec'd device that commands a higher price – but it is certainly not worth more than the LG G Flex 2 and what it has to offer.
I believe the LG G Flex 2 is definitely the better buy and the winner of this comparison. Please hit us up on our Google+ Page and let us hear your choice and WHY…as always, we would love to hear from you.

Defense was certainly there, and the block definitely made their presence known in the first two sets, helping the Knights jump out to a comfortable 2-0 lead, 19-25, 19-25 in the conference tournament finals. But then the Knights got too comfortable.
East Hartford took the next two sets, 25-13, 26-24, to force a decisive fifth set, and the Hornets used a trio of 3-0 runs and a 4-0 rally to win the fifth and deciding game, 15-10, to capture their third straight CCC title.
"We came out with that mentality in games one and two that there's nothing to lose," said Casey, pointing to a number of strong defensive stops in the first two games. "We said that they're dangerous going into game three, and we needed to respect that and still keep pushing. I don't know if we showed that."
The coaching duties in the championship game were split between assistant coach Tim Casey and Gianacopolos. The head coach was delayed by his regular job, and Casey had built a 2-0 lead by the time he arrived.
"He can do that any day of the week," said Gianacopolos Sr. "He can take over because he knows what we do. We're on the same page. We don't hide anything from anyone. We know our strengths and weaknesses."
The Knights held close with the Hornets throughout most of the match. But two changed calls of 21-18 in the fourth set and 11-8 in the fifth set, both in East Hartford's favor, could have accounted for part of the momentum swing of the Hornets.
"There were a few questionable calls by the officiating staff, which has been an issue in this state," said Gianacopolos Jr. "Calls come in our favor and calls go against our favor. But it's a game of momentum, and when calls like that happen, the momentum could change."
Brian Durocher (9 digs) paced the offense with 14 kills and went 15-for-17 serving with a pair of aces. Lou Gianacopolos Jr. (16 digs, 8 kills) dished out 39 assists and went 15-for-18 behind the service line with three aces.
Andrew Chavez went 14-for-15 serving with three aces and anchored the defense with 19 digs. Dan Hackerman (3 kills) controlled the net with five blocks. Tim Walsh contributed with 11 kills, 10 digs, and four blocks.
Southington finished the regular season at 17-2 overall (9-1 home, 8-1 away), placing fifth out of 21 teams in Class L with a 14-1 record in the CCC. The Knights also won the CCC South regional title with an 8-0 record. Newington (13-7, 6-2) finished behind Southington as the CCC South runner-up.
The Knights will enter the first round of the Class L tournament as the fifth seed and are scheduled to host No. 12 Danbury (11-9) on Wednesday, May 31. Match time is 6 p.m.
Cheshire (18-0) is the top seed. No. 3 Ridgefield (18-1) is the defending champion.

|Where to Stay
From: Orly Airport Transportation
RER B: Driverless Orlyval shuttle trains connect Orly Airport's Sud and Ouest terminals to the Antony station of the RER B line, where you can transfer to an RER train into the heart of Paris. Your combined ticket ticket will be valid on the Orlyval train, the RER, and the Métro.
Buy your ticket at the RATP's Orlyval/Orlybus booth in the terminal, then go up the escalator to the elevated train station. Keep the ticket with you throughout the journey. (You'll need it for the turnstiles at Antony and to exit the RER.)
If you're connecting from Orly to Charles de Gaulle Airport, buy an Orlyval/RER ticket to CDG-Roissy and board a B3 train at the Antony RER station. (Other B trains don't go to CDG.)
When traveling to Orly from Paris on the RER, board a train with the final destination of Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse and transfer to the Orlyval train at the Antony station.
RER C: A "Paris par le train" bus connects Paris-Orly South (Entrance F) and Paris-Orly West (Entrance G Arrival Level) with the Pont de Rungis station of RER Line C. The bus ride takes 10 minutes, and RER Line C will get you into the city in 30 to 45 minutes or so, depending on your destination.
Orlyval trains depart every 5 to 7 minutes from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m., and total travel time to central Paris is 35 to 40 minutes.
The 1- to 5-zone Paris Visite pass is valid on Orlyval and the RER. (The cheaper 1- to 3-zone Paris Visite pass does not cover airport transportation.) (The weekly or monthly Navigo pass is not valid on Orlyval.)
For your return trip, you can buy tickets all the way to Orly at any RER or Métro station.

Party Pros: Create your own Web Site
|Block Party Guide
|Here are some great ideas on how to organize your next Block Party!
1. Poll your neighbors to gauge their interest in having a Summer block party.
2. Discuss and determine the best date and time for the party.
3. Personally deliver invitations. This is a great opportunity to meet new neighbors, recruit volunteers and exchange ideas.
4. Determine how the menu will be. Some block parties have each family bring their own meats and one dish. You can pre-assign a dessert or side dish to neighbors. One easy way is for odd address to bring desserts and even to bring side dishes or you can have a sign-up sheet. Otherwise, collect money in advance to buy main course meats.
5. For paper goods, plastic utensils, cups, and napkins you can have each neighbor donate a few dollars to purchase a Summer Theme party pack or require each family to bring their own.
6. Choose a convenient location, such as a private cul-de-sac, neighborhood park, or a blocked-off street. You will need permission from the city to block a street. If blocking the street put up wooden horses to stop traffic.
7. Sign-up neighbors to set up their portable grills.
8. Plan some fun events like volleyball, relay races, watermelon eating contest, hula hoop contest or limbo.
9. Have someone bring a portable stereo for music and maybe dancing later in the day.
10. Provide activities for kids. Have plenty of bubbles, sidewalk chalk, hula hoops, frisbees and other summer toys. If it's real hot, have a wading pool for little ones and water balloons for older kids. You can plan for child entertainment like a magician or face painter.
11. At one block party, we invited the local fire department. They came with their engine and let the kids tour it. It was really hot and they even showed everyone how the hoses worked. It was a lot of wet fun!
12. Invite an area business to join in the fun by donating attendance prizes, like discount coupons, free passes or a block party door prize.
13. If your block parties will run into the night, make sure you have outdoor candles ready.
14. Enjoy the party and before it ends, appoint next years organizers or committee.
Discuss new ideas for next year.

"All politics is local" is a well-used phrase in the United States, normally associated with a famous Congressman Tip O'Neill. He used it to remind himself that he should never forget that local people elected him. It also means that you should always think about the local dimension when considering new laws or changing policies. How will this affect residents in the constituency? What will they think about it?
It's a mantra I recall when in Westminster representing the interests of residents in Great Yarmouth. My first contributions in the House of Commons were about issues important to Great Yarmouth. I called debates on improved end-of-life care provision in East Norfolk and about the British tourism industry, highlighting its importance for the Great Yarmouth economy. However, it's not all about making speeches in Parliament. MP's can have a greater impact by campaigning on issues that affect their constituents, writing articles and lobbying Government ministers and senior civil servants. I've campaigned on numerous issues that affect the Great Yarmouth communities – highlighting the need for infrastructure investment, the creation of local jobs in an Enterprise Zone and convincing the Government to freeze fuel duty.
Reminding myself that "All politics is local" is even more useful as a government minister. Dealing with national, and even international issues, affecting millions across our country, it would be very easy to forget the local angle. Instead, I consider "What are residents in Hemsby or Hopton telling me when I knock on their door" and "How did the lady in Gorleston put it in her letter?" Local opinion helped my focus before Christmas when I made key announcements on reintroducing the traditional blue-style British passport and a crack-down on foreign criminals so they are returned to their home country. I knew that both were important to constituents in Great Yarmouth and they would consider them common-sense actions.
In the latest government reshuffle, the Prime Minister promoted me to a senior role in her Cabinet. "All politics is local" remains central to my approach, it's the only way we've secured improvements to the A47, funding for a Third River Crossing and wider broadband connectivity across the constituency. And I will continue to use every opportunity to promote the needs of Great Yarmouth.

Stanford senior Shannon Aubert came within a half-inch of forcing a playoff at the U.S. Women's Amateur in San Diego on Thursday. She struck her shot for par perhaps .00001 of a percentage point harder than needed and saw the ball ring out of the hole.
Cardinal sophomore Albane Valenzuela had more room for error in the round of 16. She didn't even need all 18 holes.
Lucy Li
Or, perhaps, it was just another plus for Li, who was, after all, born at Stanford.
She lives just a few miles north of Stanford up Highway 101 and has, no doubt, played a few rounds at the Stanford golf course.
Could this have been a glimpse of the future?
The top-seeded Aubert, third-seeded Haley Moore and fourth-seeded Stephanie Lau became the latest victims of higher seeds being eliminated.
Valenzuela, who has the No. 13 seed, is the second-highest remaining seeded left to No. 10 Lauren Stephenson.
Valenzuela took care of Lau, 4 and 3, while Li held on to beat Aubert, 1up. Li was 4up after 14 holes.
Video: Highlights from the Round of 16.
In the Round of 16, five of the eight matches were won by the lower seed. That followed a Round of 32 that saw half the matches won by the lower seed.
Still left in the field is No. 63 seed Chia Yen Wu and No. 51 seed Isabella Fierro. Li is the 48th seed.
Valenzuela meets a familiar foe is USC senior Robynn Ree, seeded 37th. Ree needed just 10 holes to reach the Round of 16, where she edged No. 12 Karen Miyamoto, 1up.

Everything you need to know about working in Tenerife summer 2020.
Everything you need to know about working in Tenerife summer 2020.
As the largest of the seven Canary islands, Tenerife is known for it's volcanic landscape and vibrant nightlife. You'll even have the chance to spot whales and dolphins if you care to partake in the many sightseeing opportunities!
The buzz of Veronicas Strip makes Tenerife an ideal party resort, with more bars and clubs than you'll know what to do with! You definitely need a full season to experience everything Tenerife has to offer, and the number of tourists that this epic location draws makes for an ideal location to find your dream job with Summer Takeover.
If you want a smaller resort with plenty of variety then jobs in Tenerife are ideal. The bars are all within walking distance of one another, and there's so much to do during the day. With so many local businesses, workers will always be in high demand so you'll have plenty of options to choose from!
The majority of Summer Takeover guests travel solo, so if you're nervous about heading out on your own don't panic! Once you've secured your place you'll be added into a private Facebook group, and given login details for our very own workers social network, SummerSphere, so you can get chatting to all the other guests before you go
Most jobs available in Tenerife will revolve around the nightlife, such as Bar work, Restaurant work, Ticket Selling and working for some of Tenerife's biggest events companies. If you fancy your chances at being able to make some decent commission, Shot selling or Balloons are definitely the way forward. Check out our jobs tab for the full range of job opportunities and further information!
Our dates run from May to July, but you can stay on for the closing parties - we'll help you secure further accommodation when you're out there. If it's your first time working abroad, we recommend going out earlier, it's easier to get your bearings when it's a little quieter than to jump in at the deep end mid season!
Jess Keniwell
Just finished my second year abroad with Summer Takeover and they've made it just as amazing as the last!
Jack Rawdling
This was my second year with summer takeover and as normal there was no disappointment in it!
Conor Casey
I went on the 16th of may, was a bit quiet at the start but couple weeks later it got rammed with workers and tourist's. I Had the privilege to work for tidal for the season it was insane. Met so many great people and i have life long friends from it, defiantly doing it again next season. Peace
George Churchill

This was definitely a summer to remember. Summer takeover were a massive help on the job front and great people who you could speak to whether you just wanted a chat or if you had a problem. Very friendly and would recommend anyone who want to go out and work through ST. They provided me a job on Tidal as a VIP host and it was hands down the best job on the island, making friends for life.
Toby Pearce
Best experience I've ever had, everyone makes you feel at home and as your one big family
Phoebe Lagor

Best Summer ever 😁
Wages in Tenerife average between €30-50, this is absolutely plenty when you consider that a bottle of beer will set you back €2 during the day, and around €4 in night time venues.

Bear in mind - this doesn't include tips and commission, so turn up the charm and you'll have more money than you know what to do with...
Hours and shifts will vary depending on your job of choice for working in Tenerife. Ticket sellers can expect to be out enhancing their tan on the job, whilst bar workers will obviously start later. The average shift is between 4-6 hours, this leaves you plenty of time to visit the incredible volcanoes, go for a day trip to the theme park, or even try your hand at scuba diving!
As the pay is so good and the shifts are so short, most of our Summer Takeover crew work every day to maximise their earnings. See our jobs tab for more information. Work hard, play harder...

Not only can they provide detailed information about all the bars, clubs, restaurants and events that are recruiting staff, they'll make sure you know when recruitment days are on and will get trial shifts setup on your behalf. All you have to do is show up, and put in a good shift!
We've been building relationships with employers in Tenerife for years now, we know what sort of people they like to work with and what a potential employee can expect from them in return. Your dream job is waiting...
Our reps will meet you at the hotel to get you all settled in to work in Tenerife. This is when the party begins - treat this first week as the holiday part of your working abroad experience. Between welcome meetings, Summer Takeover bar crawls, epic parties and sightseeing you won't have a spare moment!
We'll begin proceedings with a good old knees up - you can get to know your fellow workers and plan anything special you want to do in the welcome week. Between Shenanigans, Hard Rock Café and Tramps you'll be spoilt for choice, and that doesn't even begin to scratch the surface!
By day six you'll be starting into your job trials, get the champagne on ice as you should be celebrating an offer by that evening! Congratulations, you've officially been initiated into worker life; time to make the most of your summer in Tenerife and #LiveTheDream.
After the initial 28 days you'll have the option to extend your stay in our accommodation at a discounted rate, or our devoted reps can assist in finding alternative accommodation if you'd prefer.

The technological landscape for Fintech is moving at a rapid pace. We're seeing the rise of AI Assistants, Chatbots, Internet of Things, Wearables, and Virtual & Augmented Reality.
These technologies are still taking shape, but it is safe to say that, in the near or more distant future, they are going to change the way financial services are used and delivered.
Regulation will also play a role. By January 2018, the revised European directive on payment services (PSD2) will mandate the opening of banks' APIs to third parties, with the aim to accelerate innovation in the sector.
What opportunities does this present to your business? How do you ensure that future solutions will benefit both your customers and your employees?
This document highlights the key opportunities and the User Experience challenges regarding the most important of these technologies.

Writing About Literature: Literature and Memory
In this course, we will explore an exciting range of possible relationships between literature, memory and history. Memory may be personal or national, collective or individual. It is, by turns, unreliable, haunting, inescapable, compelling, or traumatic. It creates moments of pleasure, struggle and reckoning. We will examine the role of memory in works drawn from the genres of fiction, non-fiction, drama and poetry, from varying nations and time periods. Texts represented are likely to include William Shakespeare's Hamlet, Julian Barnes's England, England, Alexander Pope's "Eloisa to Abelard," Natasha Trethewey's Native Guard, and Marie-Elena John's Unburnable. In each case, we will ask how memory shapes the stories we tell, as well as the formation of our psychic and social identities.
More broadly, English 2100 provides instruction in the fundamentals of writing about literature. Designed with the needs of English majors in mind, the course introduces students to the basics of literary research, interpretation and criticism. A central goal of the course is to familiarize students with a variety of critical and theoretical approaches that are used in the study of literature, as well as with appropriate resources for conducting literary research.

The Phoenix Suns' Devin Booker, born October 30, 1996, is the youngest player in the NBA. Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett were NBA active players at the time of his birth. Among the 60 picks from the 2015 NBA draft, Devin Booker, Jerian Grant, Larry Nance Jr. and Joe Young had their fathers play in the NBA.

The Underrated Defensive Season of Nerlens Noel
Nerlens Noel missed the 2013-14 season with a torn ACL, so his rookie season was pushed back a year. It did not disappoint. Lost in Philadelphia's 18-win season was a 6-foot-11, 228 pound defensive wizard who turn 21 years old with a week left in the season. While offensively challenged, Noel turned in the defensive season of a veteran. [Read more…]

Hello guys! I am very happy to be owner of an ID 100 TVP stack ( ID 100 head + ID 412 cabinet). It's a killer machine with incredibily good sound. I am using it in rehearsals with my band Ivory Twilight (check us out on Facebook and Youtube ) and already test it in a few live shows. I've tried many different amps, tube and not, but this TVP setting is a real deal. The cabinet with 4 x 12 Celestion speakers sounds pretty good too. Overall I'm very happy with my amp, finally I found the sound I've been searching for, and for the money it's the best gear you can get. I am considering buy Series One at some point but time will tell, today ID 100 TVP is my amp. No matter rehearsals or live venues it can take it all!
