SAN JOSE — Cityview Plaza, a huge office, restaurant and retail complex in downtown San Jose, has been bought in a $284 million mega deal that highlights robust investor interest in the Bay Area’s largest city — and appears to mark the biggest commercial property sale in Silicon Valley so far in 2018.
The deal comes amid a flurry of property sales and development proposals in nearby areas of downtown San Jose. The complex is a few blocks away from Diridon Station and the SAP Center, where Google plans a massive, transit-oriented complex of offices, restaurants, shops, residences, open spaces and other amenities in a development where 15,000 to 20,000 of the search giant’s employees would eventually work. It’s also across the street from the three-building Adobe Systems headquarters, which Adobe intends to expand with a fourth office tower.
SJ Cityview, an affiliate of San Francisco-based developer Jay Paul, purchased the 580,000-square-foot complex, according to Santa Clara County property records that were filed July 23. The seller was Park Center Plaza Investors, an affiliate of realty investment firm Equus Capital Partners.
The Jay Paul affiliate paid $283.5 million in cash for the property, which is bounded by West San Fernando Street, South Almaden Boulevard, Park Avenue and South Market Street, county documents show. The complex consists of 534,000 square feet of offices and 46,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space.
“The mixed-use Class A campus consists of high-rise and mid-rise office buildings, retail and restaurant space, united by a newly designed plaza area with outdoor seating, artwork and water features,” according to an Equus web page about Cityview Plaza.
Along with several large office buildings, Cityview Plaza contains 40,000 square feet of restaurant and retail spaces, including Specialty’s Cafe & Bakery, Morton’s Steakhouse, Scott’s Seafood, Peggy Sue’s, Bank of America, Heritage Bank and Wells Fargo Bank. In recent years, Equus launched a wide-ranging renovation that added a new fitness center, conference center, a fountain and upgraded landscaping, a property brochure stated.
Colliers International and Cushman & Wakefield, commercial realty brokerages marketing the complex, stated in a brochure that Cityview Plaza commands a top-notch site.
The property is perched near the Fairmont Hotel and the Paseo de San Antonio.
“Cityview Plaza is centrally located in downtown San Jose” and features an “amenity-rich environment,” the brochure stated.
The Cityview Plaza deal, at $283.5 million, looks to be the biggest commercial real estate acquisition so far during 2018 in Santa Clara County, as indicated by a review of major property purchases in the South Bay reported by this news organization.
In January, a 64,000-square-foot Palo Alto office building occupied by Visa was bought for $138 million, notable for its head-spinning price of $2,165 a square foot. In March, a big office building in Mountain View that’s leased to Google, along with adjacent land suitable for development, was bought for $169.9 million.
Steven Golubchik, Edmund Najera and David Hosler, executives with realty brokerage NKF Capital Markets, arranged the purchase of Cityview Plaza.
“With one of the largest Caltrain stations and a BART line under development, downtown San Jose will be one of the most easily accessible and interconnected locations in Northern California, making this a strategic investment,” said Golubchik, a vice chairman with NKF Capital Markets.

For many, as it did with me, this book will beckon you from the bookseller’s shelf; an explosive title befitting an incredible process involving upwards of 400 journalists in 80 countries culminating with simultaneous coverage breaking worldwide at 20:00hrs GMT on Sunday 3 April 2016 (note to impatient lawyers: that happens at p 327).
Park the moral indignation about theft of personal information and enjoy the thriller ride involving Central America, offshore jurisdictions, despots, dictators, celebrities, sports stars, politicians, Swiss bankers and the son of a Rottenführer in the Waffen-SS that became an apparently bad CIA informant.
The sheer volume of material is, in some senses, the undoing of this book by the two German journalists at the heart of this ground-breaking collaborative effort. They wrote in dawn shifts and sometimes it shows; parts of this amazing history are slightly repetitive. ‘Project Prometheus’ covers factually quite complex wealth structuring narrative – rather the point of the book – and its attempts to make the concepts accessible to the (dare I say) non-lawyer are not always completely accurate. The eventual name of ‘Panama Papers’ for the largest known data theft of all time is taken from the ‘Pentagon Papers’, the publication of US Ministry of Defence secret papers in 1971.

I'm trying to rig a camera inside a car to get something like these shots from Drive.
I would want the camera somewhere around the passenger seat with the rearview mirror angled to see the driver and someone in the back seat.
We will be shooting on a Red Epic.
Thanks for any ideas or examples on how to rig a set up like this.
You can take off the passenger seat and use a trihat or something like that.
Baby legs centered in the back seat with 2 legs down on the floor and 1 leg up on the seat. Fluid head and possibly a Tango Head for level.
Handheld with a furni pad for support.
Remove the back seat and use a bazooka base and risers.
Speedrail hoodmount across rear seat and ratcheted to rear doors.
The best way would be to remove the passenger seat and try to rig a tripod there. If that's impossible, try to recline the passenger seat and see if there's anyway to rig something on top.
I'm afraid that any handheld shooting into the little rearview mirror will look way too shaky when the car is moving. But, perhaps you'll end up loving that effect? It's worth a try, but don't do it hand held unless you can deactivate the airbag. It could well be deadly if the airbag deploys into a camera and operator.

MyDay, the new all-day, £2.60 county-wide bus ticket for West Yorkshire’s under 19s has been hailed a success, with over 25,000 sold over the summer.
Launched in July, the money-saving multi-operator MyDay has been used by thousands of young people to travel throughout West Yorkshire. Over 25,000 were sold over the summer and bus companies recorded a 25% increase on multi-operator child bus ticket sales over the previous August.
MCard and Bus18, which includes West Yorkshire Combined Authority and major bus operators Arriva, First and Transdev, worked with the Leeds Youth Council and other young people’s groups to develop and promote MyDay.
Find out more about the money-saving MyDay tickets and how to get one.
When MyDay was launched in July, Cllr Kim Groves, Chair of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority Transport Committee, said: “Making bus travel more attractive to young people, which will help reduce the environmental and economic costs of congestion, was one of our key aims when we set up Bus18.

Oxygenic photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria is initiated at photosystem II, a homodimeric multisubunit protein-cofactor complex embedded in the thylakoid membrane. Photosystem II captures sunlight and powers the unique photo-induced oxidation of water to atmospheric oxygen. Crystallographic investigations of cyanobacterial photosystem II have provided several medium-resolution structures (3.8 to 3.2 A) that explain the general arrangement of the protein matrix and cofactors, but do not give a full picture of the complex. Here we describe the most complete cyanobacterial photosystem II structure obtained so far, showing locations of and interactions between 20 protein subunits and 77 cofactors per monomer. Assignment of 11 beta-carotenes yields insights into electron and energy transfer and photo-protection mechanisms in the reaction centre and antenna subunits. The high number of 14 integrally bound lipids reflects the structural and functional importance of these molecules for flexibility within and assembly of photosystem II. A lipophilic pathway is proposed for the diffusion of secondary plastoquinone that transfers redox equivalents from photosystem II to the photosynthetic chain. The structure provides information about the Mn4Ca cluster, where oxidation of water takes place. Our study uncovers near-atomic details necessary to understand the processes that convert light to chemical energy.

When you connect to as many different Office 365 tenancies as I do, it’s easy to lose track of which tenant you’re connecting to – especially if you’re working on one project, but logging on to another tenant to test changes.
Sure enough, I was testing OneDrive sync restrictions for a client, and I accidentally ran the cmdlets in their production tenant, and not in my test tenant like I thought. Basically, the purpose of the cmdlet is to only allow domains on a safe list to sync – everything else (including Macs) gets blocked.
Needless to say, I was horrified when users company-wide started reporting that their OneDrive sync had stopped working! Thankfully, I was able to reverse the changes fairly quickly, and my client took my mistake and profuse apologies in good grace.
So I took my feedback like a big boy, and decided that I was going to figure out how to change my process to prevent these types of mistakes from happening again – and I re-wrote my connection script to force me to put in the tenant name every time I connected. It can’t completely prevent mistakes, but it at least prevents autodialing the wrong tenant if I’m not paying attention to what I’m doing.
This connects you to both SharePoint Online, as well as the MSOL Service so you can query/manage AD objects as well.
Hope this helps… as always, scripts or cmdlets are provided without any guarantees on my part – read it over and make sure you know what you’re running before you execute scripts in a production environment!

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, October 31, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — The 12th Annual Border Security Conference will convene in Rome, Italy on the 12th and 13th February 2019.
Oxxiom is the only wireless pulse oximeter for sports and aviation that is small enough to allow users to wear the device for long periods, and have real-time access to continuous, uninterrupted measurements of oxygen saturation, heart rate, perfusion index, and waveforms. the Oxxiom for Sports and Aviation pulse oximeter works in combination with the Oxxiom app for iOS devices. By just pressing a button in the Oxxiom app, users can create a complete report with charts for measurement trends and histograms, desaturations per hour, cumulative time with oxygen saturation below a threshold, pulse rate volatility histogram, and perfusion index log-volatility histogram. Typically, a healthy person will have less than 5 or so desaturations per hour with amplitude greater than 4%, and will stay for a very small time percentage with oxygen saturation less than 90%. These values may change (increase) during exercise, or in situations of high stress, or in high altitude places. Increasing pulse rate volatility trends and decreasing perfusion index log-volatility trends are beneficial, and an indication of positive adaptation and/or increase in fitness, making Oxxiom for Sports and Aviation the perfect solution for those who wish to expand their limits.
Oxxiom is small, lightweight and easy to use. It can be placed on the finger, forehead, or back of the ear (posterior auricle). Its design, with no patient cables of any kind, allows users complete freedom of movement in a 33 ft unobstructed path from the iOS device, meaning that athletes can exercise while taking continuous measurements.
(i) Wireless and continuous measurements of oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse rate (PR), and perfusion index (PI) for 24 hours (typical value).
(ii) Voice-based measurements (once every 30, 60, or 120 seconds).
(iii) Reports with charts for SpO2, PR, and PI measurements over time and distributions (histograms), desaturations per hour, cumulative time with SpO2 less than threshold, PR Volatility distribution, and PI Log-Volatility distribution.
(iv) Storage of SpO2, PR, and PI measurement trends (12, 24, 36, or 48 hours).
(v) Visual, audible, and voice-based warnings: Oxxiom not connected, searching signal, battery empty, poor wireless connection, charge iOS device, SpO2 and/or PR threshold crossing.
WASHINGTON, DC, USA, October 29, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — National Council of Resistance of Iran – U.S. Representative Office (NCRI-US) will roll out a new book, Doubling Down on Terror and Turmoil, which details the role of the most senior Iranian regime officials in a new wave of terrorism against Iranian dissidents in the United States and Europe. It will also unveil the agencies involved in the decision-making and execution of terror operations.
The Iranian regime has devised a sophisticated scheme to retain billions of dollars in revenues from oil and gas exports to continue its crackdown at home, wreak havoc in the Middle East and carry out assassinations against Iranian dissidents abroad.

More simply put, Industrial Espionage is the process of gathering information or data about economic or industrial targets of a business for the purpose of profit.
This information loss is fairly common in businesses and something as small as a bugging or eavesdropping device can lead to the loss of a large amount of confidential information, which can ultimately damage a company’s profits or reputation. This is known as technical espionage and is one of the most common modus operandi, however there are other forms of espionage that can be targeted including refuse disposal, waste management and key personnel.
Ensuring Key Personnel and Management understand the value of the information they use daily is one of the most important issues regarding espionage that should not be overlooked. Best practice is always to have a solid system in place including encryption of communications, secure data storage, regular internal and external security reviews and staff training and lectures.
At Insight Investigations our Counter Industrial Espionage services can help your business or organisation to develop and put into action a comprehensive internal security policy, starting with a complete security review to assess your present security levels. Technical Surveillance Counter Measures sweeps should always be an integral part of any company’s security policy, and we offer this as part of our services to avoid any potential threats to your business.
Industrial Espionage should never be taken lightly as it is a huge and common factor in today’s high-stakes competitive business world. It’s no secret that most businesses possess sensitive information such as customer lists, research reports or financial information – and our services are focused around keeping this valuable information secure.

text: The traffic door is increasing in variety of applications of use. Recently, DMF supplied and installed some Traffic doors in a hospital operating theatre. The challenge was that laser equipment is used in these theatres and so required the see through windows, but with the ability to be shielded when the laser was in action. DMF came up with the solution of using a venetian design within the double glazed window. This design meant the venetian blind was securely housed between the double glazed windows, and could be opened and closed from an external control . The doors did not lose their heavy duty design or 180 deg swing action, still being able to accommodate the heavy movement of equipment and beds through. The door panels are tough ABS with heavy duty polyethylene (PE) bumpers, and doors were custom made to size for this application.

Heron Island is a coral cay on the Southern Great Barrier Reef. It has a modern resort and Heron Island Dive Shop has everything you need to enjoy diving Heron Island.
Heron Island is completely surrounded by coral reef which is accessible by reef walking, scuba diving and snorkelling. Heron Island Resort has 109 rooms, a bar, restaurant and all the facilities you would expect of a modern resort such as a pool and meeting centre.
All in water activities are run from the Marine Centre, and these include diving and a semisubmersible reef viewing boat. There are a number of nature based activities such as reef walking and bird watching arranged via the Information Centre.
The island’s nature calendar includes the nesting and hatching of turtles, the nesting and hatching of sea birds and hump-back whale migration.
From a diving perspective it’s paradise: three dives per day, plus night dives, in reasonably shallow clear water, with most dive sites just minutes from the jetty.
Heron Island is located 82 km north-east of Gladstone on a coral cay.
The Marine Centre is the Heron Island ‘dive shop’. It’s the place where you book in for all watersports (including the semi-submersible trip), and hire any gear you need. Get all the detail via the link below.
There are dive sites all around the reef that surrounds Heron Island, and the adjacent Wistari Reef, so there is always a suitable spot whichever way the wind is blowing. The sites are imaginatively named after the features of the reef near the moorings that mark them and include lairs, cascades, bommies, holes, pools, grottos, gullies, canyons, points, peaks and gardens! The signature dive is Heron Bommie which is due west of the island and almost the closest dive site. In addition to the Heron Bommie dive, the other two dives below are both on the northern edge of the reef.
From a diving perspective, I would recommend getting a diving package and seeing what accommodation options are available with it. All rooms have a balcony or terrace – essential for drying your gear, and quite honestly, do you really need a view of the reef from your window – you’re going to be out on it most of the time.
Still, there may be others in your group who want a little luxury, or direct access to the beach if that’s where they’ll be spending their day, while you’re out on the boat.
Bottom lines: there are plenty to choose from; it’s all good; you can even check into your room at the Marina in Gladstone before you get on the ferry.
There are specific 3, 5 and 7 day packages advertised for divers so check out these first.
Check availability with the Heron Island Resort directly.
The Shearwater Restaurant is the eatery – though some food is served at Baillies Bar. Breakfast is served as a buffet, lunches are a la carte, and dinner is also a la carte apart from the Friday and Saturday evening themed buffets.
The resort will allocate you are dining slot on the à la carte evenings so that there is not the long wait that there would be if everybody decided that 7pm was their dinnertime. You can book a specific slot in advance though if you choose.
The accommodation packages can be taken as inclusive of breakfast or, all meals. The restaurant has an extensive Australian beer and wine list and as it is a resort you are not permitted to take your own alcohol (or indeed food – there are no self-catering options).
Bailies bar has live music most evenings, two pool tables, and an excellent choice of beers on tap at reasonable prices.
The pool is right next the bar so you can safely watch the kids enjoy a drink and the fantastic sunsets.
About an hour before which the bar terrace which overlooks the lagoon has the most beautiful light – perfect for photography.
Check the Heron Times – published daily. Activities are pretty much the same each day, so don’t worry if you don’t have today’s edition. The following daily activities are complimentary.
Research Walk: this is a guided tour through the University of Queensland’s Research station. The world-class research and teaching facility is the largest island research centre in the Southern Hemisphere.
Snorkel lesson: join a 15 minute snorkel lesson (– though as a diver you should be giving the lessons if any of your mob need them).
Bird walk: learn about the many birds that are encountered on the island, including the residents, those that come just to breed like the terns and shearwaters, some migratory waders that come to escape the miserable northern winters, and local visitors from the mainland.
Island Walk: there are walking tracks which wind through the bushy centre of the island to each of the different beaches and reefs.
Depending on the weather, there may also be stargazing at the helipad after-dinner; a nature-based talk on some specific aspect of Heron’s ecosystem or a sunset cruise.
The Information Centre: don’t forget to check out the information centre as soon as you can. You’ll learn a lot of useful background information about the island and the reef ecosystem.
The following activities attract a fee.
Semisubmersible: this is not your average glass bottomed boat trip. The boat in which you sit has a fully submersed lower section (which is covered overhead) so that you can see through the glass side panels and have a very clear and undistorted view of the reef and the amazing fish life to either side. Bookings via the Marine Centre.
Kayak hire: hired by the hour, near the jetty, you can grab a kayak to paddle around the lagoon during the afternoon hours.
Junior Rangers: ditch the kids and go and have a dive (or a rest). The Junior Rangers program was developed by Heron’s team of marine biologists and naturalists with some help from the University of Queensland and is designed for kids aged between 7 and 12 years old. For $15 per child, per session, the kids get a Junior Rangers workbook, hat and get to earn embroidered badges by completing various tasks. For younger kids, there is safe paddling or swimming in the shallow lagoon or swimming pool.
Whale watching (in season): The whales that pass by Heron are Hump-backed whales – named after their small, but pronounced, dorsal fin. Reaching up to 16m in length and weighing up to 50 tonnes, they can be seen breaching from the jetty and shore line. June is the best time to watch for whales heading north to their tropical breeding grounds; September is the best time to see them heading back down south to their feeding grounds around Antarctica.
The Aqua Soul Spa: if you feel the need for a little pampering, book in for a facial, a Pedi or the works at Reception or at the Spa directly. If you’re not sure what to choose, join the daily 15 minute tour from 4pm daily.
Turtles: Turtle nesting takes place between November and March. Turtles can be found simply by walking along Heron Beach one or two hours after the evening’s high tide. Look for the tracks in the sand where the turtle has come in from the sea.
Hatchlings appear two months later (between January and May), again usually after dark. When the hatchlings emerge from the sand they use light horizons to navigate out to sea. If bright artificial light is present, they will get confused and may head toward it instead of the ocean.
In order to not disrupt their habitat, nesting habits, or the behaviour of hatchlings strict guidelines are in place for the viewing of nesting and hatching turtles. Please ensure you are aware of these guidelines before you head off to observe this natural phenomenon.
Of course, you can make up your own activities or just enjoy the island and beach on your own.
It’s the divers’ dilemma that the clearest water is always the coldest. Here are the average temperatures in centigrade.
There are two options for getting to Heron Island from Gladstone: the Heron Islander boat and by air. (Both Virgin Australia and Qantaslink fly to Gladstone).
The Heron Islander is a large (34m) comfortable boat with a bar, and usually a movie for the kids. It has two deck levels, and inside (air-conditioned) and outside seating. The boat travels to Heron Island and back 11 days out of every fortnight. Departing the Gladstone Marina at 11am arriving Heron at 1pm, and departing Heron at 2pm arriving back at Gladstone around 4pm.
There is a coach connection from the airport departing 10.15 am directly to the Marina; and another that transfers from the arriving boat back to the airport arriving just before 5pm. You will need to ensure your flights fit within this schedule, allowing a little contingency time for possible delays.
The alternatives to the Heron Islander are the seaplanes operated by Australia by Seaplane, or the helicopter.
There is no airstrip at Heron, so in-coming flights land on the water in the lagoon adjacent the jetty and depart as soon as they have deposited or collected passengers.
This means that flights are weather and tide dependent, as they need enough water to land and take off again on. It also means that you will need to wade ashore at Heron Island so wear shorts and sandals for the trip. It’s a very scenic 25-35 minute trip though, so you should have your camera handy throughout.
There are two planes – one which departs from Bundaberg Airport, and one which takes off from Awoonga Lake which is a 30 min drive from Bundaberg airport, the transfers being included in the price. The planes only take three passengers, so it is pretty much your own private charter. The standard luggage allowance is 15 kg per person.
The helicopter transfers are operated by Heli Reef, and dependent on availability, can be arranged to work around your other travel requirements. The baggage allowance is 15 kg per person, but additional luggage can be transferred via the launch the day prior at no additional charge.
You can mix and match your arrival and departure methods, though it you are going to do this, you will need to probably need to speak to a person rather than attempt to book on-line.
Though you can charge everything to your room for your stay, take some cash to cover your last lunch after you’ve checked out.

turtles: turtle nesting takes place between november and march. turtles can be found simply by walking along heron beach one or two hours after the evening’s high tide. look for the tracks in the sand where the turtle has come in from the sea.
hatchlings appear two months later (between january and may), again usually after dark. when the hatchlings emerge from the sand they use light horizons to navigate out to sea. if bright artificial light is present, they will get confused and may head toward it instead of the ocean.
in order to not disrupt their habitat, nesting habits, or the behaviour of hatchlings strict guidelines are in place for the viewing of nesting and hatching turtles. please ensure you are aware of these guidelines before you head off to observe this natural phenomenon.
of course, you can make up your own activities or just enjoy the island and beach on your own.
it’s the divers’ dilemma that the clearest water is always the coldest. here are the average temperatures in centigrade.
there are two options for getting to heron island from gladstone: the heron islander boat and by air. (both virgin australia and qantaslink fly to gladstone).
the heron islander is a large (34m) comfortable boat with a bar, and usually a movie for the kids. it has two deck levels, and inside (air-conditioned) and outside seating. the boat travels to heron island and back 11 days out of every fortnight. departing the gladstone marina at 11am arriving heron at 1pm, and departing heron at 2pm arriving back at gladstone around 4pm.
there is a coach connection from the airport departing 10.15 am directly to the marina; and another that transfers from the arriving boat back to the airport arriving just before 5pm. you will need to ensure your flights fit within this schedule, allowing a little contingency time for possible delays.
the alternatives to the heron islander are the seaplanes operated by australia by seaplane, or the helicopter.
there is no airstrip at heron, so in-coming flights land on the water in the lagoon adjacent the jetty and depart as soon as they have deposited or collected passengers.
this means that flights are weather and tide dependent, as they need enough water to land and take off again on. it also means that you will need to wade ashore at heron island so wear shorts and sandals for the trip. it’s a very scenic 25-35 minute trip though, so you should have your camera handy throughout.
there are two planes – one which departs from bundaberg airport, and one which takes off from awoonga lake which is a 30 min drive from bundaberg airport, the transfers being included in the price. the planes only take three passengers, so it is pretty much your own private charter. the standard luggage allowance is 15 kg per person.
the helicopter transfers are operated by heli reef, and dependent on availability, can be arranged to work around your other travel requirements. the baggage allowance is 15 kg per person, but additional luggage can be transferred via the launch the day prior at no additional charge.
you can mix and match your arrival and departure methods, though it you are going to do this, you will need to probably need to speak to a person rather than attempt to book on-line.
though you can charge everything to your room for your stay, take some cash to cover your last lunch after you’ve checked out.

I say don’t be fooled by the official genre stated above, – this movie is, intentionally and unintentionally, first of all and above all, pure comedy! Don’t get me wrong though, it’s a lovely retro film, with great 80’s Sci-Fi look.
The story is very simple and straightforward, no complexity or depth. It reminded me of good old days, when there could be movies which haven’t had an obvious political backbone.
The characters function well together and you get the feeling that, although everything on emotional level is hilariously simplified, they respect and care for each other.
The movie leave you with a peaceful state of mind and positive emotions. I’d call it silly, in a nice way, I’d call most of the modern movies of similar genre, disturbingly stupid and hollow. There’s a big difference.

The Consumer Electronics (CE) section of Amazon.in has started a new pilot project that sells refurbished smartphones, at cheaper prices, from brands like Samsung and Xiaomi. The smartphones are said to come with 6 months or higher warranty period and are revamped by the brands itself.
Consumer Electronics occupies the top three slots at amazon.in and over the last six months, the selection available for purchase by customers has grown by nearly 150% and the customer demand is also said to have shot upwards. With smartphones being the fastest growing category, statistics say that over 82 smartphone brands are now available for purchase to customers.
The devices are clearly marked as ‘Refurbished, so as to distinguish them from the brand new models. However, as of now, the pilot now is limited to a few brands, though Amazon plans to expand this segment in the coming months.
The reason one can trust these refurbished products, is because, they are firstly brand-refurbished smartphones and one has a 100% guarantee, easy returns and premium guaranteed deliveries applied to these products.
Let us know if you would buy a refurbished product.
Tell me which company who wants to make some profit would do that ? As a customer I would prefer a new phone with a 1 year warranty and higher resell value for the same price or less. Why would I go for a refurbished defective phone from the past, used by someone and a six months warranty . Also with no idea whether or not the parts used are of better quality or worse.
At cheaper rates ? Are you crazy…. the price of the phones are almost equal to the brand new phones… some refurbished phones costs even more than the new ones. Only fools would buy refurbished phones at such prices. Better buy at olx etc.

We all know that the manufacturing process could not be the same without CNC milling machines as they cut with great precision and are dependably accurate within multiple applications in many production settings. And once a CNC Machine is programmed it requires very little supervision. However, when parts require Multi-tasking, turning, milling, drilling, taping, boring and finishing, you may find yourself changing machines throughout the process and this takes extra time. If you could save time by getting the whole process done on one machine it could pay off. That is why you should take a serious look at the VRT High Speed Spindle engineered by Bryan Machine.
How much time could you save if you did not have to change tools or machines while in production of a part? Although machine tool multi-tasking typically refers to processes that normally would require multiple machines such as turning, milling, drilling, taping, boring and finishing there is a spindle that was engineered by Bryan Machine that can handle your job all on one machine. Bryan Machine's VRT High Speed Spindle can be used on virtually any CNC machine with a holding shank or vice. CAT, BT, straight shank; you can even mount multiple spindles on one base. And anyone machining with small tools can benefit with higher spindle speed, i.e. Industrial/Automotive, medical, aerospace, aircraft, military defense, textile, manufacturing, steel mills, and agricultural.
The VRT High Speed Spindle stands out above the rest because it is capable of machining any material that can be drilled, milled, or ground. And, you don't have to buy a Turbine Spindle for each speed that you need to run. This High Speed Air Spindle has a variable speed from 15,000 to 40,000 rpm. When interfaced with your control, these spindles can be used like any other tool in your tool changer, completely unattended. This Spindle Speeder can be used on your CNC machines for engraving, jig grinding, profile grinding, & graphite machining.
If you are tired of expensive high-speed machines that don't have the torque for low-speed work, then you may consider upgrading and purchase one of Bryan Machines VRT High Speed spindles.

The current programmatic space is wrought with challenges, but programmatic 3.0, as an Advertising Week panel coined it, pales in comparison to the challenges of programmatic 2.0.
Programmatic 1.0 arose from a need to sell remnant inventory, explained Shenan Reed, president of digital for WPP's MEC in North America. "There was better ROI for us [in 2.0], but it led to a lot of pushing down on price and dilution of quality," she said. "[Programmatic] 1.0 had better quality, but 2.0 was wrought with challenges. 3.0 is our turn to say we want to make it work harder for us."
In the early days of programmatic, when publishers were trying to sell extra inventory, sell rates were only 10% to 30%, she said. "The challenge was in creating revenue that was meaningful. They ultimately sold off too much inventory at too low a price."
Today, it's about getting back to quality inventory that reaches the right people with the right messaging, agreed panelists.
"There was a time we had to sacrifice scale for quality. Now big publishers like me don't need to do that anymore," said Jeremy Randol, VP of programmatic sales strategy at Pandora. "2016 will be the year of programmatic mobile. We've seen companies make strides in defining cross-device [metrics]. DSPs are doing a better job. And there's a migration toward more quality connections."
He said Pandora one and a half years ago hired people who could make programmatic a mainstream sales tactic. His team has grown to 10 people.
Ms. Reed asked the group if in the next version of the marketplace advertisers will be able to buy against a cost-per-acquisition metric. Currently, most buying happens on a CPM, or cost-per-thousand-impression metric.
"We'll sell against how effective the advertising is," said Mark Zagorski, CEO of Nielsen's Exelate. "We're moving into a world where everything is sold on a CPA basis."
"We'll get to a place where sellers can make some real money again," added Ms. Reed. "We've been pushing media partners down and down on these CPMs because we don't see it working. If we can get to the conversion we want, and the metric of success we want, I'm willing to pay more for that success metric."
