Stony Brook Medicine has opened the new Cardiac Catheterization (Cath) Laboratory at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital to improve access to lifesaving heart care for residents of the East End of Long Island.
The lab provides emergency and elective treatments delivered by Stony Brook University Heart Institute specialists, for easier, faster access to the highest standards of cardiac care. The standard of care for a person experiencing a heart attack is that the blocked artery should be opened within 90 minutes of contact with medical care. That procedure can only be done in a cardiac catheterization lab by highly trained personnel.
For the rapidly increasing population of the East End, the nearest cath lab was previously located at Stony Brook University Hospital, up to 70 miles and a 60- to 90-minute drive. Even transportation by ambulance or helicopter could result in a life-threatening delay.
The new cath lab, led by interventional cardiologist Dr. Travis Bench, is currently the only facility in the East End capable of providing clinically complex care to critically ill heart patients. Bench and his partner, Dr. Dhaval Patel, have East End cardiology practices in Southampton and Center Moriches.
At the Southampton cath lab, doctors will be able to perform percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a nonsurgical procedure in which a physician inserts catheters through the skin to reach affected structures. The PCI treatments at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital include emergency and elective procedures.
The Southampton lab is staffed every day, around the clock, by Stony Brook Heart Institute's interventional cardiologists with the most up-to-date knowledge and skills to diagnose and treat patients with heart disease.
For patients who need emergency catheterization, Stony Brook's "Code H" protocol has produced an average "door-to-perfusion" time of 56 minutes, almost 45 minutes below the New York State regulated treatment guidelines. That is the level of care we strive for at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital. The systems and processes are in place and we look forward to taking care of our patients out east with that same dedication to quality and excellence.

Dr. Javed Butler is the co-director of the Heart Institute and chief of the Division of Cardiology at Stony Brook Medicine.
Counting penguins is like riding the highs and lows of Yankees rookie Aaron Judge's home run streaks, followed by his series of strike outs. He's not as bad as his strike outs suggest, although he's also not a sure thing at the plate either.
Similarly, in local populations, the Adélie penguin, which waddles to and fro squawking on land and gliding gracefully through the water, isn't as clear a barometer of changes in the environment. Also, like Judge, when populations rise and fall, people are eager to offer their explanations for exactly what's happening, even if the sensational explanations — he's not that good, no, wait, he's the greatest ever — may overstate the reality.
That, however, is inconsistent with Lynch's recent results, which were published in the journal Nature Communications. Examining penguin data from 1982 to 2015, Lynch, Christian Che-Castaldo, who is a postdoctoral researcher in Lynch's lab, and nine other researchers looked to see if there's a way to connect the size of the population to changes in the environment. The study involved two teams of researchers, one supported by NASA and the other backed by the National Science Foundation.
"It's a noisy system," Lynch concluded. Managers of the populations of krill, small crustaceans that are the mainstay of the Adélie diet, try to use time series of key indicator species to understand what's going on in the marine realm. In this article, Lynch said, local Adélie penguin populations may not be a clear signal of the health of the krill stocks because penguin abundance fluctuates for reasons she and her team couldn't pinpoint.
These penguins, which Lynch has counted during her field work in the Antarctic, exhibit changes in population that can run contrary to the health, or stressed condition, of the environment.
The drivers of abundance fluctuations likely involve other animals or aspects of the krill fisheries they couldn't model, she suggested.
Tom Hart, a researcher of the Department of Zoology at the University of Oxford who was not involved in this study, explores local scale variation in penguin populations. Locally, Hart said in an interview by Skype, "Things are incredibly noisy. When you aggregate, you get good signals, but with some error." He suggested that this research drives him on further, showing that "local influences are important" because there's so much variance left to explain. Lynch's research is "a really good study and shows very well what's happening on the regional scale, but leaves open what happens below that," he said.
Indeed, Lynch suggested that by putting sites together, researchers can look at larger areas, which provide a clearer picture on shorter time scales.
Managers who set fishery policies in Antarctic waterways are often concerned about harvesting too much krill, leaving the penguins without enough food to survive and feed their chicks.
The challenge with this result, Lynch acknowledges, is that it makes setting krill boundaries more difficult.
A strategy that involves resetting conservation targets based on annual monitoring appears unrealistic given these results, Lynch said. "From a practical standpoint, we threw in everything we could and could explain only a tiny fraction of the variation," she said.
To get people involved, Lynch and her team created a science competition, called Random Walk of the Penguins, to see who could predict the overall penguin populations for Adélie, gentoo and chinstrap penguins from the 2014 to 2017 seasons.
The competition, which was a collaborative effort with Oceanites, Black Bawks Data Science and Driven Data included $16,000 in prize money, which was donated by NASA. Entrants could use data from the 1982 through the 2013 seasons. The contest drew competitors from six continents. Of the five winners, all were from different countries.

Regardless of how attentive you might be about observing safety and health rules on the job, workplace injuries can always happen. Some of these injuries can lead to hospitalization or death, depending on the type or cause of injury. Well, here are some of the common causes of workplace injuries in any organization.
Are you pushing yourself too hard? Are you working beyond the standard hours? Are you doing much more workload than is expected of you? Well, you are at risk of mental and physical exhaustion that can lead to slower reflexes, poor judgment and also inattention to instructions or details. If these things happen when you are operating heavy machinery, then you might suffer a terrible workplace injury.
There are many things that can stress you about your job. For instance, are you worried about your finances, job security, personal relationships or more? Well, if you are stressed, your mind is more likely to make mistakes that could lead to serious injury while in the work place. On the other hand, you can suffer serious health complications such as hypertension, stroke or cardiovascular problems.
The office kitchens and break rooms are some of the areas in the workplace where you are vulnerable to a workplace injury from a slip, trip or fall. That's because, these places have many liquids stored or in use at all times. On the other hand, floors made out of hardwood, tiles or linoleum are slippery after being mopped or waxed and that's where most slips happen.
On the other hand, items on a high traffic area such as extension cords that are stored poorly can lead to trips for both employees and clients. The same goes for carpeting that has come loose as well as poorly lit stairs and hallways. Therefore, if you notice any liquids or poorly stored items, you need to correct the issue immediately, to prevent workplace injuries that might require a lot of medical attention.
If items such as furniture, bookcases or filing cabinets are not secured safely, they can be dislodged by any movement such as earthquakes. Therefore, the toppling objects would place any employee or client nearby at risk. The same goes for heavy objects or supplies that are stacked too high and are bumped accidentally. To prevent these mistakes, make sure that all the movable furniture in the office is secured safely and all the stacked supplies are stored safely.
Do you work in a company that deals with dangerous or hazardous chemicals? Well, when handling these materials, you should always have protective clothing such as protective eye wear, gloves and protective clothing. The employer should always provide these safety clothing to make sure that all the employees are safe. However, there is always the risk of a slip or fall that might bring you into contact with the dangerous chemicals. If that happens, you need to be given immediate medical care to prevent further complications.
If you have suffered an injury at work you should seek assistance from a workers compensation lawyer who will be able to assist you in making a claim to cover your medical expenses, loss of income and damages for your pain and suffering.


It was nothing but a dream when we got together to plan our trip to New York Fashion Week this past September, and then suddenly our dream was becoming a reality when we arrived – thanks to the help we received at Expedia.ca and Airbnb. Our team consisted of a multitude of Vancouver-ite talent: Meagan of LivingBoldly.ca brought her sharp business mind, Sabrina and Jeremy of StreetScout.me brought there mad street style photography skills, and Cristina of Fluent Productions made the whole thing run smoothly with her coordination.
I can honestly say that I've never been so impressed by a city when it comes to fashion, ever. I've been to New York before, but something magical happens here during fashion week. From watching the most incredible fashion shows I've ever seen to scouting for the most AMAZING street style to perusing NYC with some of my favorite people, I have to say... New York Fashion Week was a dream trip come true!
A big thanks to the team of Streetscout.me for their amazing work on putting together this video from our trip - enjoy!

Just three years removed from a World Series season Kansas City is back to where they came from. That is as a team with a low payroll and little prospect for success. MLB game lines will have the Royals as consistent dogs this year. Such a drop in stature has to hurt KC fans who had become accustomed to backing a contender. Eric Hosmer's departure to San Diego was a crushing final blow this past winter. As for the Angels championship demands are at a maximum level. Kansas City will host Los Angeles on Saturday night.
Probable starters are Garrett Richards for the Angels and Jakob Junis for the Royals. Richards is a right hander that has posted a 1-0 record in three starts in 2018. With an ERA of 4.20 he has a WHIP of 1.60. He has pitched in just 15 games since the 2016 season. Also throwing right handed is Junis. Starting strong he has a 2-0 record and 0.50 WHIP. Junis permitted no earned runs in his first two starts. As a rookie last year, he was 9-3 with a 4.30 ERA and 1.28 WHIP. Junis is a rare top shelf Royal.
Kansas City wasted no time showing their ineptitude with the MLB game lines. With six losses in their first nine games the cellar belonged to KC. Pitching was once the strength of the Royals. Now it is a liability. Even worse is an offense that ranks near the bottom for run production. Mike Moustakas is one of the few names remaining from the title years. "Moose" powered to a .925 OPS with two home runs and eight RBI to start the season. With a roster remake this will be a year of learning for KC.
Few teams boast better run production than the Angels. With nine wins in their first 12 games they demonstrated their chalk status. Defending champ Houston and LA are expected to battle all season in the American League West. What is most encouraging so far for Los Angeles has been their improved pitching. That has been the missing element the past few seasons. Bolting out of the gate was old mainstay Mike Trout. LA's centerfielder powered four home runs. Also flexing his muscles was Shohei Ohtani with three home runs. Justin Upton added three more round trippers.
Kansas City has dominated this recent sportsbook online series. Seven payouts in their last eight games vs. LA has made lots of cash. Over the total has paid in just two of the last seven in this rivalry. Los Angeles has paid in just two of their last nine at Kauffman Stadium. Five of the last seven between these teams at KC have gone under the number.
This is a MLB game lines mismatch. Junis does bring an element of chance for Kansas City. But his presence also means a drop in price for the Angels. Betting value therefore will be with the better team in this matchup.
Keep an eye on the Angels for 2018. And certainly, for this game!

Project i20, electrical and autonomous car that BMW wants to compete against Tesla
Automotive |September 24, 2016 |by |0
The future looks promising for technology in cars, today we are facing a significant share of electric cars aiming to increase year after year; on the other hand are the systems of autonomous driving, where several companies have active developments with a view to having the first commercial products during the next decade.
Here BMW has taken it easy, or at least have decided not to show off their progress as others, as everything has been in tentative dates, images concept and the promise that their autonomous car will arrive in 2021, as claimed ago about months. Today comes to light new information on this project which was known as 'i NEXT' and from now changed to 'i20 Project', which aims to be launched in 2025.
Image Source: Google Image
It starts as an electric car with "autonomous capabilities"
In a new update to the road map BMW, detailed part of the plan that will have the manufacturer for electric cars in the coming years, which updates the i3 and i8 for 2022 include, but more interesting is that it adds the new i20, as it is known internally, which maintains the original release date for 2021 but this first version will not be completely autonomous, but come with a system for driving assistance, yes, a sort of "autopilot" as Tesla.
This i20 come with several power options ranging from 136 hp to 247 hp, it would be more streamlined, larger and more "beautiful" than the i3; while the capabilities of self-driving come completely to the version that would be launched in 2025.
Meanwhile i3 update scheduled for 2022, would come with a new aluminum chassis with carbon fiber structure. While for the i8, which is believed to be delayed until 2023, the most important change would be the abandonment of the hybrid engine to make way for three completely electric motors with a power of 750 hp, and a range of approximately 483 kilometers.
Undoubtedly the most interesting bet is the i20, which arrives to open a new range of products to catch up and thus face their competitors in a market that is complicated, where Tesla has managed to come with some problems, but where the unless it is already present with its autopilot and its range of electric cars.

that is interested in an annuity. I have never sold one and am not sure what type is right or what company is best. She is 65years old and is looking for something safe that can give her a good return on investment. She is only interested in taking out the interest (not principle) for living expenses. Where do I start?
Get out and meet an annuity expert that you have confidence in and trust, work out a comp. split and refer her.
Putting her in the wrong annuity will cause you both a huge amount of grief.
you are right. I guess the question I have is: If I have a 65 year old wonam that is getting 5.5% from a CD what can I offer her that will allow her to take just the interest out that is better than the cd. I need annuities 101 I think. I am licensed to sell them but know nothing about them.
She's not going to get a better return than her CD. CD's are considered short term investments and with the Federal Reserve raising the short term rrates 17 consecutive times, CD rates have moved upward.
Annuities are generally tied to long term treasuries due to the regulation requirements on the insurance company (which a bank doesn't have). And long term rates have actually dropped over the past several months. As a matter of fact, the 10-year Treasury is at 4.59%. So it would be impossible for an insurance company to offer a guarantee over a long term investment much higher than what we see in the 10-year treasuries.
The only possible advantage she would have with the annuity is that the rate could be guaranteed for a longer period of time than the CD. People who played the CD switcharoo in the late 90's through 2003 or 2004 saw their rates go from 6% or so down to 1%. Had they been locked into something paying maybe 5%, they would have been real happy in 2002, 2003 and 2004.
It may be possible to get her a guarantee of just under that CD rate for maybe 5-7 years. But you're not likely going to find a fixed annuity with a 5.50% guarantee.
Not saying not learn or stay involved but its not like you can just and read a 5 page book then go make the sale.
You get the point and it sounds like your trying to do what is right or you wouldn't even be asking the question.
Still surprised that Annuities don't require additional license to sell at least here in MI.
Think there was 2 questions on the test regarding them.
Thats just a general thought not geared towards you. Have ramped up (seminars, readings...) on annuities and still would seek advice before making a sale.
Sman is right, you will not find a better return. www.annuityfyi.com is a very good place to start, but some of the rates they show are prospectus products, so be careful. Also, since she is not looking to accumulate money, but to live off of the interest, there are no real tax advantages either. There could be a small advantage of removing the principal from the probatable estate, but I doubt she is in that category.


Every Intro Bio student can cite ATP as 'the energy currency of the cell'… but what do we mean by that? And why does it play that role? These are important questions, and they deserve answers. And real ones, not invocation of the mystical 'high energy bonds'.
Perusing Wiki for an image to link for ATP, I'm surprised to find how many directly imply that the 'value' is in the bond between two phosphates. I think suggesting that this is the case does a disservice to students' ability to analyze and understand. We've taught them by now that bonds are simply shared pairs of electrons. Blaming the bond for the potential energy inevitably raises the question "Is it the electrons that are special? If not, what is it about the bond?". No and nothing.
The Kreb's cycle/TCA cycle/Citric acid cycle is a cornerstone of most introductory biology discussions of energetics. Boy is it scary to look at, but what a wonderful opportunity to make students memorize names and structures! But seriously… short of asking students to know everything about everything, what are the core concepts that they 'ought' to understand?
I've made a first stab at adding some lecture component materials (stuff I've already researched and collated; note that many of these could be used an in-class exercises or at-home student explorations). These are meant to be collections of inter actives (often simulations or explorations I've created), Web and literature resources, and sometimes Powerpoint/Keynotes files and movies from my own lectures.
Yesterday, I made a first pass at Opsin; this joins existing Flu and Cytosine/Uracil/Thymine modules; I also added a bit to the Blue eyes vs. Lactose intolerance set (where we deduce number and timing of origin of human mutations from gene sequence comparison). All are accessible from the link above.
We all want our students to 'think critically' and 'become better problem solvers'. But what does that mean, and how do we scaffold and provide opportunities developing problem-solving strategies? Obviously, this question is deeper and wider than a single blog post, but I wanted to put my first card on the table. First and foremost, this must all begin with 'legitimate' problems. To me, this means ones where a student must reach beyond plug-and-play; there must be elements of identifying which information is useful, choosing approaches that attack weak points of the problem, finding their own path rather than following ones already mapped out. Two cases that I think exemplify 'real' problems are Petals around the rose and (surprise surprise) my own PatternMaster.

Um yeah, this link up is brilliant.
When I was 27, I was a serial dater. I'm not proud to say that now, but I was proud of it back then. Moving on.
I had met this guy out, who was a friend of some friends. I wasn't super interested but I did like dinner and dates.
We decided to go out for dinner on a Friday at 6.
Red flag #1 I had to pick him up.
So, 6 o' clock came and went and I wasn't picking him up until he confirmed the date.
Around 8 o' clock I received a text that asked where I was?
So he said he was sorry and asked me to come and pick him up.
I got lost on the way to his house and I had to call for directions.
Red flag #2 he was kind of slurring on the phone, while telling me directions, but I just thought that it was bad service.
I scooped him up and we went to a place 20 minutes away from his house for dinner.
As I was driving, I noticed he is hammered. However, this is entertaining to me and by no means makes me mad.
We get to dinner, he orders more beers (I wasn't stopping him, fuel on the fire) and we get our food.
As we are eating, he is only using his right hand. His left hand has now been resting in his mashed potatoes for about 5 minutes. And he's just chatting away and eating and drinking etc. Almost acting as if that hand isn't even a part of his body. Just picture it, EVERYTHING with one hand, from eating a steak tip to drinking his beer, while the left hand just sits there.....flaccid.
We get in the car to head home and he passes out.
Naturally, I then have to bring him by two friend's houses and have them come outside so that I can roll down the passenger window and show them my passed out date.
Weeks later, I saw him out again and he told me he wanted a re-do and that he owes me a date.
WOW....I think you should of taken pictures and drawn on his face for doing this.
Haha omg, I think I dated this guy. Or his twin. Although we didn't make it through dinner, he got kicked out of the restaurant for falling down in the kitchen. No clue why he was in the kitchen, but whatever man. Haha. I love that you showed your friends. And that ecard has me dying!
HAhahahaha. Gotta love you for finding a drunk date entertaining. I dunno what I would have done in your shoes.
Hahaha fell asleep in the mashed potatoes. Dating, geeeeez.
I loooove that you took him to friends houses... bahahahaha!!!
yummmm lol i hate the word flaccid...almost more than i hate "moist"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA why the hell was his arm dead!? I was kind of waiting to hear that it was a fake arm or something but nope just his drunk ol arm chilling in the potatoes. How did he not notice while eating that it was there?!
Oh jeez that is terrible! I guess we know why he wanted you to drive.
...I have no idea what to say about this! Woah.
O... M... G... What a winner! Lol. Def sounds really entertaining!
What? You didn't give him a re-do?
Winner, winner, chicken dinner. He failed to mentioned you had to drive since his license was revoked! I had a 2 hour day and only got to speak one sentence. He complained the waiter was too friendly, said he wouldn't get a dog till he was married so someone would be home to take care of it, then made me go halvsies on dinner. We didn't re-do it either!
Hilarious! I missed all the fun meeting John when I was only 20.
Hahahahaha. I was laughing throughout this entire post! I had a date who passed out during a movie once (he got hammered before I even arrived) and it was so awkward. I definitely don't miss dating AT ALL.


TradingBeasts appears, on the other hand, to be extremely bullish on Ethereum. The monthly Ethereum price prediction for February 2019 is a price of $249.26 by the beginning of February 2019. This seems highly unlikely as, on January 29, 2019, the price of Ethereum is about $105. The minimum and maximum prices for Ethereum by Trading Beasts during February 2019 are $420.71 and $618.68 respectively. And by the end of the month a rather very bullish Ethereum price prediction of $494.95.As the recent price of about $105 has reached the lower daily Bollinger band a potential bounce is likely. The lower and upper daily Bollinger bands are about $106-$133.40 as of Feb. 4, 2019. A bounce up to the level of $120-$125 is likely. Our technical analysis and monthly forecast for Ethereum for the month of February 2019 is not an investment recommendation. But considering the short-term bounce of price on the weekly chart from Dec. 17, 2018, to Jan. 7, 2019 and the following resumed decline we favor the recent downtrend to probably continue in February 2019.

Previous entry What do you use?
Life happens, I've stopped studying so many times I can't count them.
Kudos to you for reviewing the past chapters and plowing on with your textbooks.
I tend to switch resources when restarting studying, it makes for a rather disjointed learning. I really should stick to one main textbook series and only vary the extras.
Going through the old is actually pretty quick but a little boring. But I feel I refreshed almost where I was rather quickly. Ordered more books so will be adding in new things the second I'm starting the next section of npcr where I left off before.
Tuttle learning Chinese character books, Chinese breeze books and intergrated Chinese workbook, still gotta order text book for that but looking for a cheaper copy.
Just try to keep the embers glowing. The time I spend studying Chinese fluctuates in conjunction with the demands of my coursework, but at a minimum I make sure to listen to, watch or read at least one thing everyday.
Lowering your demands in a similar way might help you avoid the longer breaks.
That's another problem is that sometimes I set unrealistic goals for myself and plan to be at a certain point by X day. And when that day comes and only reached 50% of what I set I feel horrible and feels like I did not do anything.
Well, you're doing better than me - I've had a break of almost 4 years and am now plucking up the courage to re-start studying!
Just do it and picture yourself 4 years from now and think how much you would know right now if you never stopped. Start with just 30 min a day and don't set goals that are to hard to reach.

Marketing is a role undertaken by all companies in all market sectors. In St. Louis, it has become an important function as competition for customers increases due to an influx of businesses offering the same or substitute products and services.
Any company that does'nt budget for marketing research in a competitive industry may not survive the turbulence of business cycles and may as well be headed to failure. It's critical for organizations to monitor their market trends and formulate strategies to gain new customers, retain existing ones, and eventually outdo their business rivals in terms of market share.
St. Louis Digital Marketing has revolutionized how buyers and sellers interact in a virtual world. Its benefits extend beyond profitability to creating business models that are more effective and efficient in meeting the needs of all parties in a business setting.
Globalization has created a society that interacts online through the internet. These interactions are not limited to social communication but also extend to transactions among individuals and companies as they exchange products and services.
Companies are now able to track their customers through online communication and software that enable clients to buy company products online.
Investing in the online group of consumers is something every entrepreneur needs to consider. Disseminating information to the public through online domains is the new trend in marketing.
However, it's not as simple of a task as many may think. Marketing is a strategic function of any organization that requires careful forethought and the commitment and application of necessary resources.
Just posting information on social pages doesn't guarantee effective marketing results and may not pass the intended message. It requires management involvement and consultation of qualified personnel to convince the viewers and readers to purchase your goods or services over that of a competitor.
It requires the use of the right medium or platform and designing the right messages that are appealing to and resonate with potential customers. These messages should be able to change their perspectives, deliver sufficient and accurate information, and assure them of the benefits of buying from you.
Developing a company website is only the initial step to digital marketing as noted by most advertising agencies in St. Louis. It requires more than an online platform to transform individuals to customers.
While an appealing website will get peoples attention, by itself it will not change attitude, buying decisions and prompt the users to order your products. It will also not guarantee return customers. There's so much more that needs to be done to ensure it transforms into a reliable means of expanding and retaining the market share.
Members of the online community need to link to your website easily through search engines; this will increase user traffic on your site. This creates an opportunity for potential customers to view your products and services by reviewing their benefits, components, usability and compare them to those of competitors. A well-crafted advertising message is able to change their perceptions and lead to purchase.
The use of social media pages to create brand awareness is a strategy most organizations have adopted. However, it is only successful when you are able to reach target customers and interact with them. It is not effective to communicate the message to a group you do not intend to serve with your products and services.
To do this, it is important to establish the sites to reach your target group. You can then create messages that capture their attention on pages such as twitter, LinkedIn among others. It is not easy to deliver the right information to the right persons.
Digital marketing is a strategic task that requires you to be on the lookout for competitor strategies. While it is an efficient method, it could also lead to business failure when rivals have better marketing strategies. It is good to consult firms that have expertise in the development of digital marketing.
There is a variety of options in St. Louis. They do not only help create convincing messages, but also develop an interactive platform where you can talk and receive feedback from your current and potential customers. St. Louis Digital Marketing experts develop solutions for business and individual marketing that are tailored to meet varying needs.
There are digital marketing agencies that will help you understand importance of digital marketing in a business setup. They are keen to inform clients on the role this plays in driving profitability, customer satisfaction, and competitive sustainability. Digital marketing offers all businesses an opportunity to compete for customers at the same level.
Small businesses are more likely to benefit from it as they can access the same customers as big companies and sell their products and services. It bridges the barrier of size in competition for new markets and increase in the sale volume. Small sized companies are not able to reach customers using traditional marketing strategies.
This is because they have been locked in by big organizations that have created niches and enhanced customer loyalty. This is different in the digital market since consumers have a wide variety to choose from and compare prices, quality, and characteristics of products.
They are likely to buy from sellers that offer goods at an affordable price regardless of size. Entrepreneurs are more likely to succeed by using digital marketing strategies since their advertising message can reach a wider population who are in constant need of new products and means of satisfying their varied wants.
Increasing the return on investment is the goal of every business unit. St. Louis Digital Marketing companies points out that developing the right digital marketing mix is key to increasing profitability. The aim of developing strategies for any business is to increase revenue and reduce costs of operations.
These two can be achieved by investing in the right marketing campaign. An interactive website is key to gaining more customers and retaining them. Return customers lead to increased sale volume for products and drive the turnover rate of stock.
When you have consumers that are willing to purchase your goods on a continuous basis, it increases your production hence more revenue. You can track their buying patterns in order to determine the required level of production and the amount to produce at a certain period when sale volume is more.
It will also reduce your costs of production since sales forecasts reduce the likelihood of idle stock that may become obsolete. It is obvious that traditional marketing provides a difficult method for tracking purchase rates and volumes; it is an almost impossible task.
With digital marketing, you can know what your customer wants and characteristics of your products that they would like changed. There is no better way to grow your business than to provide the consumers with their desired products. It will not only create loyalty, but will also provide you with a means to diversify due to different needs and wants.
A business that is constantly seeking feedback from their target customers is better placed to create sustainability while increasing profitability. Information exchanged through interactive tools enable clients feel valued which enhaces satisfaction.
An organization can encourage their customers to post product reviews, which can be very important in product development and redesign to suit the changing needs of buyers.
Digital Marketing has evolved to solve some of the problems experienced in traditional marketing methods. Businesses are increasingly adopting new technology to run and remain competitive. The measures of business success and competitiveness have been mainly inclined to the level of profits.
The buying patterns of customers can be an advantage for businesses to increase their revenue while reducing costs. Tracking this has been a difficult task in traditional marketing but that's not the case with digital marketing.
It will help you know what clients need in specific situations. Knowing your customers behaviors by tracking their preference and buying decision will help you develop better advertising messages to influence purchase of other goods.
Web analytics can now be used to determine how people access your website, how they view your advertising information and enable you communicate to them in a better manner that is more efficient and effective.
Analogue marketing requires customers to buy physically from the shops after access to an advertising message. This is however different from digital marketing where information on products will also provide a customer with an option to buy the product.
The time between when clients receive information and when they actually decide to buy could change their perspective due to competitor products on display. However, digital marketing is a convenient method of increasing sale by providing clients with a click and buy option.
Customers are impressed by the product and immediately order on the website. It can be said to be the ultimate shopping experience for buyers since they are able to buy based on real time information and in a fast process. This will definitely improve your business model by making it less complex and effective.
Businesses today have a large online presence as they compete for customers and grow their market share. Both small and large businesses are establishing their customer base by using the internet. Internet users are buying things online and recommending these products to other users.
If your goal is to grow your business by a large margin and be sustainable in an increasingly competitive global world then you need to embrace digital marketing. Customers are becoming more tech-savvy and preferring online transactions at the convenience of their homes.
If you aren't able to offer your products to them online, you might lose even your current clients. You need to help these users find your products easily by consulting marketing experts on the best digital marketing strategies.
Your social media presence is tools to enable customers discover your products and buy from you. Rival businesses are also using the internet to win clients hence lack of digital marketing might as well mean you are lagging behind in beating competition. You will reach more customers through social media that has a large following.
Interacting directly with your customers is possible by using digital marketing. Customers turn to online sites to seek information about products they need and get views on the products from other users.
Reviews can create or destroy your product if you are not keen on digital marketing. If you have to talk to your potential customers and encourage them to buy from you then you need to take part in their conversations on review sites.
It's important to clarify misleading information about your products, monitor user opinions, and ensure the right information is disseminated. Individuals are more likely to buy from companies that generate many reviews and are committed to responding to customer concerns and keeping them knowledgeable on new products, modifications, and new service delivery.
If your company doesn't have a website and is not part of the social media community, it becomes difficult for customers to trust you. Customers are more open to trying products from companies that offer information on their products on social pages and will be driven to their websites to learn more.
This is due to rise in a society that appreciates information and are careful to know about goods before buying. An organization's brand awareness reduces the customer's decision-making process; a customer will easily buy a product from a company website that has invested in online advertising.
Digital marketing is an effective cost cutting method. Traditional promotional methods may prove very expensive especially for small businesses. The internet has enabled businesses reduce costs of transactions.
Relaying information on products and services you offer has become a more flexible task. Connecting to your customers and interacting with them directly is now more efficient with internet connection and the right networks.
With an expert in digital marketing, your problems of reaching the customer are solved. You only need a clear, unique, and interactive platform to make sure your products are known and purchased by a large market share.

One of India's finest sporting personalities: Nandu Natekar
Born on 12th May 1933 in Sangli, Maharashtra, Nandu M. Natekar was the first Indian badminton player to win a badminton tournament abroad in 1956.
In a career that spans over a decade and a half, Nandu Natekar won as many as 100 titles. He won a record 6 single national championships, 6 men's doubles national champions, and 5 mixed championships.
Some of his main achievements are:
First Indian to reach the last 8 at the All England Championships in 1954.
First Indian to win men's singles champion at the Selangor International Tournament in Kuala Lumpur in 1956.
He was the first recipient of the Arjuna Award that was instituted in 1961.
Also, voted as the most popular sportsperson of India in 1961.
Nandu Natekar in 1962 teamed up with Meena Shaw and won the King's Cup International mixed doubles tournament. The following year he also won the men's singles title at the same event.
Received "Lifetime Achievement Award" by the Petroleum Sports Control Board of India in January 2001.
The 88-year-old legendary badminton player breathed his last on 28th July 2021. He is survived by his son Gaurav Natekar, a former national tennis player, and two daughters.
The Natekar family was quoted saying "With the deepest sorrow, we would like to inform you that our beloved father Nandu Natekar passed away on 28th July 2021 due to age-related ailments".
Messages from all quarters of the country poured in on the passing of this great man.


Tehran is planning to build small nuclear power plants and desalination facilities in the south of the country, according a spokesperson for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI).
Deputy head of the AEOI Behrouz Kamalvandi said that his organization is actively working on developing a program to make the new energy projects operational in the coming years.
Talking to IRNA news agency on Saturday, Kamalvandi said that he expects Iran to start generating fuel in the next 10 to 15 years.
The Islamic Republic is also drawing up plans for the production of fuel for larger power plants, Kamalvandi said.
Kamalvandi confirmed that a Rosatom delegation is to visit Iran later this month to continue negotiations on building the two new power plants in Bushehr.
"During the visit of Rosatom delegation, negotiations will be underway for joint cooperation in construction of the two power plant as well as the production of nuclear fuel," he said.
He noted that the construction of two nuclear plants will start within the year.
Late last month, Iran and the P+5 powers agreed to a framework for a nuclear deal curbing the Iran's nuclear capability in exchange for sanctions being lifted. The interim deals calls for Iran to reduce the level of enrichment at its Natanz nuclear facility as well as roll back its fuel stockpile and cut the number of centrifuges in Natanz. The deadline for a final accord is set for June 30.


It is certain that the move by Iraqi Kurdistan to hold a referendum on 25th of September to break away from the central government of Baghdad will be a warning bell. Its effects will not be confined within the Iraqi borders. They will inevitably affect the entire Middle East region and their impact will be more serious for Turkey, Iran and Syria.
The referendum was the main reason for a series of diplomatic movements in the region and globally. The recent visit by the US Secretary of Defense, which included Iraq and Turkey, was the Kurdish issue. The Iraqi side has warned that the referendum will catalytically damage the wider region. During his presence in Baghdad, Jim Mattis secretly met with Kurdish officials and asked the Kurdish side to wait for more time. However, the Kurdish response to the referendum was rigid.
In Ankara, the tension in the atmosphere was much higher. The Turkish side of course knows that if the Kurdish separatist domino starts from Iraq, it will not stop there and Turkey is the next one to face a threat because of the enormous Kurdish presence in its southeast. The US side, during this visit, tried to reduce the importance of the referendum, request calm and ask for more time to try to influence the Kurdish side in Iraq.
In recent days, Iraqi Kurdish leader Barazani has secretly visited Israel, one of the countries in the region that generally supports the Kurds and the creation of a Kurdish state in particular. A very well-informed source pointed out to me that Barazani met with the Israeli Prime Minister, who in turn gave his full support to the Kurdish step, stressing the support of a number of Arab states in the Gulf, which they believe will directly affect the stability of Iran in the near future.
Meanwhile, the Kurdistan regional administration included the Iraqi city of Kirkuk in the referendum. This is a direct threat to the central authority in Baghdad, which responded through its representatives, such as one of Al-Hashd al-Sha'abi militia militants, named Abu Azrael, who confirmed that Baghdad and his team would never accept the annexation of Kirkuk to Kurdistan. He also said there was a high probability of military intervention in the city to avoid its attachment. This is but a message of Iran towards the Kurds.
Kirkuk, inhabited by Arabs and Turkmen, is known for its important position in northern Iraq, since it is rich in high-grade oil, so it is of great importance to Baghdad's central government and Iraqi Kurdistan. The Kurdish region will suffer financially if it is separated from Baghdad due to the impossibility of imports and exports, since the imposition of financial sanctions and its financial exclusion from the surrounding countries after the referendum are taken for granted. So Kirkuk and its oil are the only solution. In a statement, Barazani said a few days ago that Kirkuk is for the region as the heart for a human.
Both Iran and Turkey are well aware that blocking the referendum is not possible at this time, and that the majority needed for its success exists. The next step for these countries is to prevent its effects by opening an internal Iraqi conflict between the central government of Baghdad and Iraqi Kurdistan on the city of Kirkuk. In my opinion, a Kurdish-Iraqi conflict is a matter of time. Days after the referendum will mark the start of a new war in the region.

Q: Configuring Pydev Interpreter in Eclipse to use Enthought Python Distribution I downloaded Pydev plugin for Eclipse (3.5.2) today on Mac OSX 10.5.8. To be able to use Pydev, I need to configure the interpreter in Eclipse. I am not clear what exactly I need to do here, or what this step does. I want to make sure that when I run programs from Eclipse using Pydev, it uses the Enthought Python Distribution (EPD) I have installed, and can use all the packages that come with EPD. Can someone please tell me simple steps that I need to follow.
If I click on autoconfig, it shows a bunch of folders with the path
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.Framework/Versions/2.5/...
But I know that the Python that came with EPD is version 2.6.4, so autoconfig is not choosing EPD.
Thanks for any help.

UPDATE - solution
If anyone else is interested in learning how to do this, see the first link in the answer by mlvljr below. Use the solution there EXCEPT that as suggested in the solution, Shift+Cmd+G, did not help me see inside the Python.app package. To look inside it, use the "gear" drop down menu in the Finder and choose "Show Package Contents"

A: For latest versions of Canopy under Mac the correct path seems to be:
/Users/<yourusername>/Library/Enthought/Canopy_32bit/System/bin/python

I tried with ~/.... first but Eclipse didn't seem to like that.

A: I've had the same luck!
On top of a Mac X Lion I did the following installations:
* Enthought 2.7 (these preconfigures Python 2.7 and a lot of other libraries).
* Aptana Studio 3.03 (not beta) with PyDev preconfigured.
* Finally, and after some troubles I saw that there was some versions of Python installed on my Mac (and I don't remembre when I installed it). I had to choose the version that justus87 says. Put attention on it because its easy to confuse and is a head break!
Remember, the path of the python file is: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/7.1/bin/python
You need to make sure you point it to the EPD interpreter and not just the regular python 2.7 interpreter. For EPD 7.2 64-bit on mac the path is
"/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.2/bin"

A: Mac OS 10.6.4:
Selecting the interpreter as /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python did not work.
I had to select /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python

A: At least on Windows, this seems to doable via:

*

*[Navigate Eclipse menus] "Window"->"Preferences"->"PyDev"->"Interpreter - Python"-> "New" (which is next to "Auto Config" you tried to use, if I get it right)

*[Type or paste into textboxes] "Interpreter Name", "Interpreter Executable"

*Click "OK" :))
[UPDATE]
From the Enthought Python Distribution Readme.txt (EPD.mkpg/Contents/Resources/Readme.txt in epd-6.1-1-macosx-i386.dmg EPD disk 32-bit MacOS disk image):

Applications are installed into /Applications/EPD32-6.1
and the underlying Python framework into
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/6.1

So, Interpreter Executable must be:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/6.1/python
You can supply (almost) any Interpreter Name you like. :)
Hope this helps.
[EDIT]
If this does not help, google search for "Error getting info on interpreter" gives the following (the problem may have to do with Eclipse version (older have bugs) and the symlink vs actual path problem):

*

*Installing PyDev on OS X 10.5.2

*[Pydev-users] [pydev - Users] mayapy on PyDev Maya Python is running on OSX

*Cannot set python interperter in preferences - ID: 1523582 (unfold "comments" there)

A: I am running Python 3, so I had to make these changes to get python.exe as my interpreter.
File:
C:\EasyEclipse-for-LAMP-1.2.2.2\extensions\pydev-1.3.3\eclipse\plugins\org.python.pydev_1.3.3\PySrc\interpreterInfo.py
Edit all occurrences of "print ..." to "print(...)" (the ... is whatever is being printed), so wrap it in parentheses.
Comment out line 16, since True and False are considered keywords in Python 3.
Save, and you should be able to successfully set C:\Python32\python.exe as the interpreter. I kept the default folders checked.

A: I found this tutorial very helpful for this problem - http://www.cs.duke.edu/courses/compsci101/current/resources/install.php
Specifically, step 6:

*

*connect Eclipse to your version of Python (so you can run Python programs within Eclipse)
connect Eclipse to your version of Python (so you can run Python programs within Eclipse)

*

*open Eclipse and access the Preferences Box (under Window>Preferences on Windows or Eclipse>Preferences on Mac)

*choose "Pydev" and "Interpreter - Python" from the sidebar

*press the "New ..." button to tell Eclipse about Python

*in the resulting dialog box, for the "Interpreter Name" type "Canopy" and for the "Interpreter Executable" type

*

*for Windows: "C:\Users\UUU\AppData\Local\Enthought\Canopy\User\python.exe"

*for Mac: "/Users/UUU/Library/Enthought/Canopy_VVV/User/bin/python"

*where UUU is your user name on your machine and VVV is the remainder of the directory name (which depends on which version you installed; you should be able to find the right one by browsing to it)

*choose "Select All" and then click "OK" at the bottom of the resulting dialog box

*click "OK" at the bottom of the Preferences Box and wait for the changes to take effect when the dialog box to close (you do not need to restart Eclipse)

A: If you can get the (Enthought)  Canopy distribution working, but are unsure where it's installed to/what PyDev needs, the following worked for me to use that install to identify the right solution, and install it:
start ipython (as it was installed with the Canopy distribution).
do:
import sys;
for i in sys.path: print( i)

look for the option that ends in:  "/bin"    ( e.g. mine was:    /Users/myUserNameHERE/Library/Enthought/Canopy_32bit/User/bin  )
Now the fun part (as it worked for me), go to eclipse's preferences, and under:
  "Pydev"==> "Interpreter - Python",    and select 'New...'
Add in that full path under 'Interpreter Executable"  put that path, along with 'python' (on mac  [ probably 'python.exe' on windows?] ). For 'Interpreter Name' I  put 'Python2.7-Canopy');
PyDev then automatically the other libraries to include ( I checked the boxes to accept its suggestions).
Lastly, you'll need to make sure that your project is using that Interpreter. Ensure either

*

*(a) If your project is bound to the default interpreter (for 'Python'  and not 'Jython'),  move that new 'Python2.7-Canopy' you added (in your workspace Preferences) to be your workspace's default ( using 'Up' to make it first)   or

*(b) Go to the settings for the project,  and under  'PyDev - Interpreter/Grammer' select from the requisite dropdown box the name you put (eg.  "Python2.7-Canopy")

On my system, all then finally worked, matplotlib, numpy, etc.  Yeah!

Sitting quietly in my apartment in Maryland at 5:30 in the morning, unable to sleep anymore tonight, I reflect back at the past few months. It is 12/12/12 today, supposedly a once in a lifetime experience, but I am quite living these once in a lifetime moments for the last few months.
I have wanted to write for some time, but alas, the strongest urge to write comes when you are alone, really alone, with no one else on your mind, but yourself. You then own yourself and give in completely to what you truly want.
The journey has been exciting, the least to say. From deciding to take the plunge, spending that extra 25% for the masters, convincing myself, convincing family and convincing N.P. Singh, all of it looks like a part of another world now.
Wait, am I flying? May be J But the flight has been serene, enriching and sometimes maddening too. Everyone said, you cannot quantify the benefits of an exchange program, now I know how true they were.
Boarding the flight to Washington, I was excited, yes. But I did not know what to expect. Unlike my "pseudo European" friends, I had no itineraries prepared, no vast travel plans. I asked my peers, "So, why have you decided on US?" "Well I want to experience the US education system". Hmm, that's a good enough reason. But I wanted something more. Maybe I wanted to check if I can be on my own, search myself in these long (or maybe short) 4 months.
My onset into American land was marked with the introduction to the Maratha Gang, a group of 15 odd Mumbaikars, my room-mates and pseudo room-mates for the months to come. They were loud and loving, a little weird but very welcoming J. Thanks to them, I can tick "Understand Marathi" in the new forms I sign asking for language competencies :P.
I had never seen anything like The University of Maryland campus before. 37,000 students, 220 graduate/under graduate courses, 1250 acres of lush green campus. The campus is a city in itself. College shuttles, events, the STAMP became a daily affair. The Smith School was grand and elegant. The infrastructure needs to be seen to be believed. Bloomberg terminals, MAC labs, Case rooms: everything is available to the students all the time. Classes were rigorous and free of attendance, a great departure from what we've been subjected to throughout the academic routine. But the voluntary participation made the classes intense. The methodology and techniques are similar in all B Schools generally, but the class size was much smaller and discussions informal. The professors were different too. Hedge fund management was taught by a professional owning a company at the Wall Street! Management consultancy was taken by a professor having 15 years of experience with KPMG.
Sounds boring? :P Well there was plenty of fun too!
Joined by Manna and Vishal, we set to conquer the east coast, interspersed with classes of course! Our first destination was a tour to the National Capital, Washington DC. A half an hour metro ride takes you to the political capital of the World! And since it was so close, it was the first of the many many visits to the architectural marvel, The Museums were free, and Manna was having fun :P The Walk across the Mall, The Capitol, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial and of course the World War II memorial in the moon light, dunking donuts in George Washington University, Opera at JFK Centre, long long walks, infinite tours to the Union Station, The Gay Parade at Halloween, Haagen Daez Sundae at gallery Place, North Farragut fiasco, Catching the last train by a whisker, missing the last bus by a whisker, infinite mega bus moments, 2.5 mile walk across Anacostia waterfront to save a dollar (then spending it on a generous serving of donuts/sundae), the amazing buffets, DC baby you will be remembered, forever!
Between the DC visits, there was a lot more places to go. Niagara falls was another such one. The serene beauty of the place is simply mesmerizing. It simply blows you away. The maid of the mist ride, the 360 degrees rainbow, the trek right under the falls, the night colors of the fall, the beauty needs to be seen to be believed. And it is said, this is nothing compared to the Canadian Side. Well, another trip is definitely due there.
Next up was New York! The city that never sleeps. But we did sleep, ofcourse, in Lower Manhattan. A forced entry in a GS studio apartment, located right opposite World Peace Tower (Ground Zero). All for the price of 6 precious donuts :P. New York was crazy. Time at rocker fellor, the Empire State building, Times Square, Wall Street, Ground Zero, Hop On Hop Off Buses, the chill of the city, the freezing night, Hersheys, search for dunkin Donuts and finding it closed every time L, the non-stop chitter chatter, the $22 pizza L, meetings with old friends, Sunset at Manhattan, The Cruise, The Atlantic, the pride in calling Delhi's metro better than New York's subway, every drop of the city pass was drained and utilized. The New York experience was priceless but alas we had to return.
Next in line was exploring the home town (well temporary home town), maryland. What a wonderful place it is. People don't need to live in apartments; there are big houses with a porch. It does not snow here a lot. Its so close to Washington, connected via metro yet away from the hassles of the Business world. And the transport system is fabulous! We had a taste of it ;) Commuting 6 hours for a 2 hour Hindi movie, we've done that! The fall colors in the Campus and Greenbelt trail, the Artimisia lake and the quiet right in the middle of the city, the hour long trails back to college, Baltimore's "Mis-red, Mis-Chief", Annapolis harbor's night time beauty, the ship (or fish) that nearly went through us :P, the church, the morning coffee, Alexandria's old town feel, the Christmas décor, the mysterious yatches, Greenbelt's countless movies, Shopping at 8 AM, the college shuttles, Federick's $8 buffet, silver springs and the ben & jerry's Choco therapy Tub.. you all will be missed!
Apart from the travelling and the classes, I have learnt a lot on this 4 month vacation. I can live outside Delhi, without my family, which I never thought was possible. I do not want to enter Marketing. I am in love with dunkin donuts :P. I can cook decently and I enjoy it!
I want to travel the world and take each day as it comes. I am glad, I found an excellent friend on my 4 month vacation.


Conversations with AlienVault, AppRiver, Barracuda MSP, Cisco, Datto, eFolder, Infrascale, Ingram Micro, IT Glue, Pax8, VIPRE Security, Webroot & more.
The IT Nation 2017 conference, hosted by ConnectWise, wrapped up on November 10. But our coverage of the gathering — which attracted 3,500 attendees — continues. Here's a recap of our formal meetings, impromptu conversations, chatter from the conference floor, and backroom conversations.
AlienVault already has a healthy next-generation security business in the enterprise. But to reach MSPs in the SMB sector, the company integrated with ConnectWise. The big benefit: ConnectWise's software essentially manages the federation of AlienVault services across multiple SMB customer settings. MSPs, in turn, can more easily deploy and manage the AlienVault offering.
AppRiver is one of the world's largest Office 365 partners – helping MSPs to wrap additional IT services around Microsoft's SaaS suite. A new AppRiver-ConnectWise integration surfaced at the show. And new private equity ownership should fuel additional AppRiver growth.
We ran into multiple Arctic Wolf team members at the conference. The company offers a Security Operations Center (SOC) as a service to MSPs. A ConnectWise integration surfaced at the event, and new SaaS-oriented offerings also debuted during the week.
MSPs know Barracuda best for the Intronis acquisition in 2015. Fast forward to present day and Intronis has been rebranded as Barracuda MSP. But that's only part pf the story. The overall Barracuda MSP portfolio is now a category of solutions rather than a specific backup point product, notes Bradbury. Organic R&D along with tuck-in acquisitions also continue. A new integration with ConnectWise Automate surfaced, and an acquisition (involving Sonian) further bolsters Barracuda's data protection story for Office 365. Sonian is an email archiving solution that's popular with OEMs.
Sheth, during a media Q&A with ConnectWise CEO Arnie Bellini, vowed to ensure Cisco demonstrates a strong commitment to MSPs in the SMB sector. We'll share some video footage of the interview in the days ahead. Cisco and ConnectWise, by the way, announced their formalized partnership earlier this month at Cisco Partner Summit.
Bellini's keynote focused on successful team building within technology solutions providers (TSPs). Plus, some updates on the overall ConnectWise business strategy. Here's a complete recap.
ConnectWise Unite, a new, single management dashboard for on-premises and cloud services. Multiple Cisco applications and Amazon AWS services are plugging in now. The ConnectWise CloudConsole integrations (Office 365, Azure) will be rebranded into Unite around Q1 2018.
Unite Software Development Kit, which just started beta testing. The kit will allow additional partners to plug into the dashboard. The kit goes "beyond anything Salesforce has done" because partners can embed pieces of the ConnectWise suite in their applications, Bellini asserts.
ConnectWise Invent, a $10 million incubator fund for ISVs and others that want to integrate with the dashboard. The company plans to share more details about the fund in the weeks and months ahead. It could grow to a potential $25 million, Bellini says.
ConnectWise Marketplace, an online store where integrated Unite offerings will surface.
Peter Bellini: The ecosystem effort also includes another Bellini name. Indeed, Peter Bellini – Arnie's son – has been driving the Connectwise Unite software development team and will also oversee the SDK effort. Much of the initiative has involved Peter Bellini moving to India.
ConnectWise has made multiple acquisitions and investments since 2010. Those assets were reorganized into a single corporate umbrella by late 2015. Fast forward to present day, and the company has standardized on an Agile software development model that means bugs are typically fixed within 90 day windows, and R&D is closely coordinated across ConnectWise Sell (formerly Quosal), Manage (PSA), Automate (RMM) and Control. The big focus areas for 2018 include ConnectWise Unite, which essentially rebrands ConnectWise CloudConsole to manage on-premises and cloud assets like various Cisco services, Microsoft Office 365, Azure, Amazon Web Services and more. Also, a ConnectWise Unite software development kit will allow third-party technology companies to plug their services into the dashboard. The result should be a stronger ecosystem of services for MSPs and technology solutions providers, Fulton asserts.
In some ways, ConnectWise was late to the international market. Multiple rivals broke ground in Europe and Australia before ConnectWise really planted its business flag across the globe. David Bellini shifted to an international role and moved to London back around 2015. The results have been impressive. That London office has grown from four to 44 employees. ConnectWise now has 1,600 partners outside of the U.S. market, with growing momentum in such areas as the Benelux and the Nordics, and Australia. Next Up: IT Nation Europe, which is set for April 18-20 in London.
The high-profile Datto-Autotask merger is expected to be finalized later this quarter. But during this meeting with Rae and Gassman, we didn't discuss the M&A deal. Instead, we covered yada, yada, yada. Hmmm… Maybe I'll share details at a future date.

Islam does not contradict anything. In the Quran , the second verse states " in this book , there is no doubt."
According to these Qur'anic verses, Islam stressed the absolute unity in variety of the human race. In his famous Farewell Pilgrimage sermon, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) declared: "O people! You are all to Adam and Adam was made of dust. No Arab is to be preferred over a non-Arab except by virtue of his piety." So before you make false statements, please fully complete your research.

Current Students Student Profiles Diana Shepherd Back to top
Dance at Illinois
"The nurturing environment has allowed me to understand the artist that I am becoming."
Diana Shepherd's family has supported her love of dance since she was five years old. Now 14 years later, she continues to explore that passion as part of an even bigger family—the College of Fine and Applied Arts at Illinois.
"Dance at Illinois is very welcoming and supportive, which makes it easy to make new friends and to explore who I am as a person and a dancer," says Diana. "It's this kind of support and the support of the people close to me that define my experiences as a student and an artist. And the experiences I have provide the inspiration for my work in dance and choreography."
Diana chose Illinois because of its highly ranked academic programs, the first-rate reputation of the dance program, and the helpful professors, students, and staff she met while visiting.
"It's easy to feel at home here because everyone is so welcoming."

Wildlife tracking is nothing new, but it's certainly not without limitations. When pursuing animals – particularly birds – across rough terrain, traditional methods such as VHF tracking can become inordinately challenging, with the necessity to attach trackers to individual animals, the signal of which can become lost within rugged and uneven landscapes. One such example are the endangered swift parrots of Riverina in New South Wales, Australia, which migrate across a large region, and are among those whose unpredictable movements are unsuitable for traditional tracking methods.
