French Quarter block by block
History, people, fables and critical essays on the 24/7 life of the French Quarter. "Those who live somewhere should be allowed to decide how a place should exist; it should not be determined by how it can be sold." (Grace Lee Boggs) "The great music of the city is not Louis Armstrong; it's when you say good morning and good evening." (Mr. Jerome Smith)

840 North Rampart-Rock n' Roll history
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum designated Cosimo Matassa's J&M Recording Studio as a historic Rock and Roll Landmark, one of 11 nationwide.
A few J&M recordings, including Fats Domino's single "The Fat Man," Roy Brown's "Good Rockin Tonight" and Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti" have sometimes been called the first rock n' roll record.
Now a launderette, you can still hear Fats Domino at the piano if you listen closely enough when the rinse cycle comes on..
Then stop by and see the Matassa boys at the family store at St. Phillip and Dauphine and get some red beans for later…
from Frank Etheridge's 2006 (?) Gambit story:
Matassa then opened a studio in a larger space on the 500 block of Gov. Nicholls Street in a former cold storage space for avocados — "great sound there," he says — and then later expanded further when he moved to the 700 block of Camp Street in a building that also housed offices for his Dover record distribution business as well as a studio. Matassa also had a plant in Jefferson Parish to manufacture the records.
"I was trying to be a factor on the national level," Matassa explains of his expansion in the years leading up to the mid-'60s. "But every time I went to a bank for a loan, they'd throw me out. Unfortunately, people in New Orleans with money at the time were only interested in real estate deals or oil deals. That's why Nashville made it with the music industry, because the city had a couple of sympathetic banks."

Dear potential contributors, eyes-on-the-street and well-wishers:
Here are the questions that sparked this FQ project:
Who uses the Quarter to work, to live, to meet, to drink/eat, to shop, to protest?
Do enough people love it and care for it?
What do we need to do to keep it from atrophying into complete caricature and what hard truths and practices do we need to consider to restore its diversity?
If you have an opinion, I'd like to hear about it. This project will tell details of all kinds, of every single block in the Quarter and of New Orleans. Reviews, interviews, essays, stories, criticism. And links to those places and written histories that need to be remembered-leaving the obvious to the postcards-to dig up some old underused ideas and add some new innovations to our city center. Blog pieces, zines, broadsheets, articles, maps and other forms will be used in this project.
Mercantile Jackson Square Project 1850-
I am beginning research on the commercial history of Jackson Square since the addition of the Pontalba Bldgs. Feel free to contact me if you have primary documents, ephemera or first-hand accounts of Jackson Square retail, apartment dwelling or other commercial aspects pre 1950s. The latter years and the entire history of the artists colony will be tackled later.

Why we should study the French Quarter:
"Under the seeming disorder of the old city, wherever the old city is working successfully, is a marvelous order for maintaining the safety of the streets and the freedom of the city. It is a complex order. Its essence is intricacy of sidewalk use, bringing with it a constant succession of eyes. This order is all composed of movement and change, and although it is life, not art, we may fancifully call it the art form of the city and liken it to the dance — not to a simple-minded precision dance with everyone kicking up at the same time, twirling in unison and bowing off en masse, but to an intricate ballet in which the individual dancers and ensembles all have distinctive parts which miraculously reinforce each other and compose an orderly whole. The ballet of the good city sidewalk never repeats itself from place to place, and in any once place is always replete with new improvisations."

GlobalSIP 2013 Symposium on Energy Harvesting and Green Wireless Communications
Symposium Date:
GlobalSIP 2013 Symposium on:
[Download the PDF Call for Papers]
Wireless communication networks composed of devices that can harvest energy from nature represent the green future of wireless. Utilizing harvested ambient energy for operation of wireless networks improves the environmental impact of wireless devices in the global scale, while extending the network lifetime indefinitely and making the devices truly mobile in the network. Energy harvesting brings new dimensions to system design in the form of randomness and intermittency of available energy, as well as additional system issues to be concerned about such as energy storage capacity and processing complexity, all of which call for novel signal and information processing techniques. Additionally, deployment of energy harvesting wireless communication networks and their integration to the wireless broadband access structure will require effective resource and interference management, cooperation and collaboration between energy harvesting nodes and battery powered devices/access points/small cell base stations, making signal processing algorithms to accomplish these goals invaluable.
The goal of this proposed workshop will be to bring together researchers in energy harvesting and wireless communications, and provide a forum for dissemination of novel research results.
Submissions of at most 4 pages in two-column IEEE format are welcome on topics including:
Physical layer design for energy harvesting communications
Signal processing for energy harvesting communication
Information theory of energy harvesting communications
Network theoretic approaches for energy harvesting communications
Energy and message cooperation
Energy efficient MIMO
Design of green wireless communication systems with hybrid energy sources
Heterogeneous green wireless communications systems
Small cell networks and green communications
Roy Yates, Wireless Information Networks Laboratory (WINLAB), Rutgers University, Energy Harvesting Receivers: Models and Policies
When receivers rely on stochastic energy harvesting, the processes of sampling and decoding may be interrupted by power outages that limit the reliable communication rate. To model the receiver, we decompose the processing tasks in two parts: first is sampling or Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) which includes all RF front-end processing, and second is decoding. We propose a model in which, for a given code rate, channel capacity, and battery size, the transmit packet timing and receiver sampling policy are optimized. Based on the relative energy costs of sampling and decoding, we then characterize the maximum reliable communication rate over the choice of code rate and sampling rate and we identify optimal receiver policies.

Gil Zussman, Columbia University, Energy Harvesting Active Networked Tags (EnHANTs) — Measurements, Algorithms, and Prototyping
We discuss a new type of wireless devices in the domain between RFIDs and sensor networks – Energy Harvesting Active Networked Tags (EnHANTs - http://enhants.ee.columbia.edu). Future EnHANTs will be small, flexible, and self-powered devices that can be attached to objects that are traditionally not networked (e.g., books, toys, clothing), thereby providing the infrastructure for various Internet-of-Things tracking applications. We describe the paradigm shifts associated with the underlying enabling technologies. Then, we present the results of an indoor light energy measurement campaign and of a kinetic energy study that have been conducted in order to characterize the energy availability for EnHANTs. We discuss low complexity energy-harvesting-adaptive algorithms which aim to allocate resources uniformly in respect to time and to determine energy and data rate allocations for a node and for a link. Finally, we present the design considerations for the EnHANT prototypes which harvest indoor light energy using custom organic solar cells, communicate and form multihop networks using ultralow-power Ultra-Wideband Impulse Radio (UWB-IR) transceivers, and adapt their communications and networking patterns to the energy harvesting and battery states. We also describe a small scale EnHANTs testbed that uniquely allows evaluating different algorithms with trace-based light energy inputs and discuss experimental results.
Based on joint works with A. Bernstein, M. Gorlatova, R. Margolies, A. Wallwater, and the groups of P. Kinget, J. Kymissis, D. Rubenstein, and L. Carloni (Columbia).

Biografische Weiterbildung ist eine ganzheitliche Konzeption der Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung, die sich maßgeblich an der Lebensgeschichte, der aktuellen Lebenssituation und den persönlichen Lebenszielen orientiert. Im Unterschied zu den einheitlich durchgeführten Programmen allgemeiner, beruflicher, politischer oder anderer Bildungsprogramme steht hier die individuelle Biografie im Mittelpunkt des Lernens, d. h. das Erleben und Verhalten der Teilnehmer, ihre Erfahrungen und "Standpunkte" sowie ihre (Veränderungs-)Wünsche und Zukunftsperspektiven.

Definition
Die biografische Weiterbildung setzt an der einzelnen Biografie an und schließt auch die Lebensgeschichten anderer Kursteilnehmer ein, um daraus rückblickend und zugleich zukunftsweisend Folgerungen für das eigene Leben zu entwickeln: "Das Biografische Arbeiten zielt ab auf die Auseinandersetzung mit der eigenen Biografie in pädagogisch gestalteten Lernprozessen. Die eigene Lebensgeschichte oder Phasen dieser Lebensgeschichte, bestimmte Ereignisse oder Situationen, werden zum ausdrücklichen und bewussten Gegenstand des Lernens"

Entwicklung
Den entscheidenden Anstoß zur Biografischen Weiterbildung von Frauen gab die französische Soziologin Evelyne Sullerot mit einem Vortrag im Jahr der Frau 1975 und ihrem folgenden Buch " Die Wirklichkeit der Frau" 1979. Hier knüpft das Konzept einer Ganzheitlich-biografischen Weiterbildung für Frauen an. Die weitere Entwicklung wurde auch durch das seit den 1980er und 1990er Jahren zunehmende Interesse an Biografien und an Biografieforschung in Erziehungswissenschaften und Geschichtswissenschaften, Soziologie und Psychologie beeinflusst. Aus Weiterbildungseinrichtungen und Universitätsinstituten erschienen Beiträge und umfangreiche Dokumentationen zur Theorie und Praxis der Biografischen Weiterbildung (u. a. Gieseke, 2001; Schlüter & Schell-Kiel, 2004). Grundsätzlich können biografisch orientierte Weiterbildungsmethoden für beide Geschlechter genutzt werden, jedoch haben sie sich besonders in der Frauenbildungsarbeit bewährt.

Grundsätze und Ziele
Die Konzepte und Arbeitsmethoden wurden vor allem in der Frauenbildung weiterentwickelt, differenziert und seit den 1980er Jahren bis in die Gegenwart hinein vielfach erprobt. In einer Ganzheitlich-Biografischen Weiterbildung sind drei Komponenten zu unterscheiden:

 Biografisches Arbeiten bedeutet, dass die Lebensgeschichten der Teilnehmer Ausgangs- und Schwerpunkt der Bildungsarbeit sind.
 Ganzheitliche Weiterbildung bezieht die psychologisch wichtigsten Persönlichkeitsbereiche ein: die allgemeine Belastbarkeit, Gesundheit und Krankheit; intellektuelle Fähigkeiten, die Lern- und Bildungsbereitschaft; psychosoziale Bereiche (Emotion und Kommunikation); musische Begabungen wie auch das konkrete, praktische Handeln in neuen Situationen. Dabei geht es weder um eine einseitig kognitive Weiterbildung noch vorrangig um die Selbsterfahrung emotionaler Probleme.
 Weiterbildung im engeren Sinne bedeutet hier, dass die ganzheitliche Biografie-Arbeit durch Wissensbausteine ergänzt wird. Je nach Zielgruppe, Fragen und Diskussionsthemen werden wichtige Voraussetzungen und begleitende Hilfen für die zukünftige Lebensgestaltung der Frauen eingefügt: entwicklungs- und persönlichkeitspsychologische Grundlagen, Lern- und Arbeitshilfen, Rechtsfragen, Weiterbildungs- und Berufs-Informationen oder auch Anregungen für eine kreative Lebensgestaltung.

Programmübergreifende Ziele einer ganzheitlich-biografischen Weiterbildungsarbeit mit Frauen sind:

 die Unterstützung und Begleitung von Frauen in einem Klärungs- und Entscheidungsprozess zu ihrer weiteren Lebensführung und den gewünschten und/oder notwendigen Schritten der Lebensplanung;
 die (Re-)Aktivierung von Frauen in schwierigen Entscheidungssituationen und in Phasen der Unentschlossenheit und Unzufriedenheit. Die Arbeit unterstützt die Teilnehmer dabei, ihre individuellen Ziele zu definieren und das Leben (wieder mehr) in die eigene Hand zu nehmen;
  die Erhaltung oder Verbesserung psychischer und/oder physischer Gesundheit. Die Erfahrungen und Vorbilder in einer aktiven Frauengruppe können einer depressiven oder resignativen Verstimmung vorbeugen und eventuellen Lebenskrisen entgegenwirken.

Weiterbildungsprogramme und Zielgruppen

Beispiele der Weiterbildungsarbeit mit Frauen gibt eine Serie von Kursprogrammen, die in verschiedenen Arbeitsgruppen, zum Teil im Auftrag und mit Förderung durch die Landesregierung Baden-Württemberg entwickelt wurden (siehe Beiträge zur Frauenforschung und Frauenpolitik von 1983 bis 1993). Das Gesamtprogramm umfasst sechs Weiterbildungsmodelle für unterschiedliche Zielgruppen: Die Teilnehmer befinden sich mehrheitlich in Lebensphasen eines "Umbruchs", in denen sie neue Orientierung suchen oder Veränderungen in ihrem Leben anstreben.

 Kursprogramm Neuer Start ab 35, auch Neuer Start für Frauen – Wege in den Beruf, mit wechselnder Namensgebung und aktualisierten Inhalten. Für Frauen in oder nach der Familienphase mit Überlegungen zu einem neuen Aufbruch, vorwiegend in eine erneute Berufstätigkeit.
  Kursprogramm Neue Wege – Frauen im öffentlichen Leben: Qualifizierung für politische, kulturelle und soziale Aufgaben. Für Frauen jeden Alters und in unterschiedlichsten Lebenssituationen, die eine Übernahme neuer (zusätzlicher) Aufgaben anstreben.
 Kursprogramm Neue Chancen nach der Lebensmitte – Spurwechsel? Lebensphase des Älterwerdens. Für Frauen "ab 55" oder "um 60", die sich auf das fortschreitende Alter vorbereiten wollen und Unterstützung im "Dritten Lebensalter" suchen.
 Wissenschaftliche Studie und Kursprogramm Weiterbildungsverhalten von Frauen mit geringen Bildungsvoraussetzungen und in schwierigen Lebenssituationen. Entwicklung eines Stufenmodels zur Persönlichkeits- und Berufsbildung für "lernungewohnte" Frauen in schwierigen Lebenslagen.
 Kursprogramm Zeit für mich – Zeit für Dich. Junge Mütter gestalten das Leben mit ihren Kindern. Für junge Mütter, vorwiegend mit ihrem ersten Kind. Wechsel der eigenen Identität und der Lebensperspektiven. Lebensplanung zwischen (neuer) Familiensituation und Beruf.
 Kursprogramm LernWerkstatt – ein Sprungbrett für Frauen. Für Frauen in allen Lebensphasen mit dem Wunsch, etwas in ihrer Lebensumwelt oder an den gesellschaftlichen Bedingungen zu verändern. Erlernen der "Projektmethode", um eigene Projektvorhaben selbständig planen und durchführen zu können.

Die Fragen und Themen der Teilnehmer in den einzelnen Kursen werden in der kurstypischen Kombination von Biografischem Lernen, Wissensvermittlung, und Gruppengesprächen diskutiert.

Okay. I'm fed up with the attempts to divide this country in every way people can. The article below was posted to FaceBook with the title "Linda Sarsour Asks Muslims To Form "Jihad" Against Trump, Not To Assimilate"
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2017/07/06/linda_sarsour_asks_muslims_to_form_jihad_against_trump_not_to_assimilate.html
There are a lot of people who only read headlines. I believe the person who created this banner headline knows that. The clear intent is to put this woman, and the groups she represents, in the worst possible light. The intent was to create anger and discord, once again, in our country.
This is exactly what she said: "I hope that we when we stand up to those who oppress our communities that Allah accepts from us that as a form of jihad. That we are struggling against tyrants and rulers not only abroad in the Middle East or in the other side of the world, but here in these United States of America where you have fascists and white supremacists and Islamophobes reigning in the White House," Sarsour said.
"Our number one and top priority is to protect and defend our community, it is not to assimilate and please any other people and authority," she said. "Our obligation is to our young people, is to our women, to make sure our women are protected in our community."
"Our top priority and even higher than all those other priorities is to please Allah and only Allah," Sarsour declared.
First, there is nowhere in that speech where she asked or suggested to anyone "form a jihad" nor is there anywhere in it that she suggested anyone "refuse to assimilate".
Second, let's get a clear understanding of what the word "jihad" truly means. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary: Definition of jihad. 1 : a holy war waged on behalf of Islam as a religious duty also : a personal struggle in devotion to Islam especially involving spiritual discipline.
According to a BBC program on world religions in 2009 : "Jihad explained. The literal meaning of Jihad is struggle or effort, and it means much more than holy war. "
Taking those two sources into consideration, and bearing in mind she was speaking at the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) convention in Chicago, most likely to a group of American Islamic women, here is how I interpreted her comments:
"We hope that Allah accepts from us that as a form of jihad" is not calling for a religious war. She is saying they hope Allah sees their spiritual struggle as they build and nurture their religious community as an act of faith and devotion. If a Christian said, " We hope God sees our work within our community under adverse conditions as an act of faith and devotion" I strongly doubt anyone would take issue with it!
In the context of the statement, she said their number one priority is to protect and defend their community, their young people and their women…all other priorities being lesser than that and to be dealt with after those things. She is not saying they refuse to assimilate. She is simply saying that in light of what they are facing it is not the top priority. And I have to respect that. I have always told my kids, "Family first! Always family first! After that you look out for your friends, your neighborhood and your community. But family always comes first.'
This woman is saying exactly that, and I respect her for it.
Wake up people! Stop simply reading the inflammatory headlines. Dig deeper. At least make an effort to fully understand what is going on before you make any judgments. Our country's infrastructure is crumbling. Our civil rights are being chipped away. The things that made our country great are being eroded and flushed away while we are foolishly letting the people who are doing it, our not so illustrious supposed leaders, distract us with bullshit.
Stop REacting and start ACTING like free American citizens. Vote only after looking at the records of what candidates have (and have not) done in the past. At the very least, look at their voting records. Then get off your asses and to the polls on each and every election day.
If you're sitting there telling yourself your vote won't make any difference you are a fool. Every landslide election starts with the first person who casts their vote. Then the next and then the next. One single vote DOES matter. Just look at where we are today and ask yourself, "If I had voted last election, and everyone else like me had done the same, would we be where we are today?"

Yamazaki 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky first came onto the market in 1984 and was the first seriously marketed Japanese Single Malt Whisky. The amazing flavor of spiced wood and notes of vanilla do not disappoint. You can find sweet ginger, cinnamon on the long finish. This is a classic Japanese Whisky that will not disappoint.


walk in, grab it, walk out. It's as easy as that and I'm not sure why a lot of people here over think things (hiding in shelves, working about wraps and tags and alarms) People fail to realize that the majority of LP are hands off and can't physically stop you. They'll try to work "vocal judo" on you but you just ignore it and walk out.
Once you work retail and you know all the "tricks of the trade" you quickly realize that shoplifting is simply a matter of walking in, grabbing something, walking out. I don't even conceal anymore.

is an additional service which runs the URL check - as a scheduled task, through the http (https) protocol. You can use it instead of starting scripts regularly through CRON. The Timer service is available for free with each webhosting (except of PIDI and EMAIL webhosting variants) and its interface is available in the webhosting administration page.
The task is started at intervals of 5, 10, 15, 30, 60 minutes, at time which corresponds with the period.
The task is run at a specific time - e.g. at 13:30, user can also specify the day or days on which the task will be performed.
If one of the checks is negative, the task will not be started, it will be suspended. If the checks are OK, the task will start. In case of failures during the start, the errors will be recorded. According to the type of error (see description below), the policy of task status change is implemented. Time limit for running the task is set to 4 minutes. (Note that the time limit for running a script on a webserver may be shorter. E.g. for webhosting Normal it is 90 seconds). As soon as the time limit expires, the task is interrupted.
Suspension of a task means that the task will not be started until the customer re-starts the task again. Re-start of the task will have no effect, unless the cause of the failure (error) is removed.

Long Term Care Insurance with State-Dependent Preferences
Philippe De Donder
Marie-Louise Leroux
We study the demand for actuarially fair Long Term Care (LTC hereafter) insurance in a setting where autonomous agents only care for daily life consumption while dependent agents also care for LTC expenditures. We assume that dependency decreases the marginal utility of daily life consumption. We first obtain that some agents optimally choose not to insure themselves, while no agent wishes to buy complete insurance. We then show that the comparison of marginal utility of income (as opposed to consumption) across health states depends on (i) whether agents do buy LTC insurance at equilibrium or not, (ii) the comparison of the degree of risk aversion for consumption and for LTC expenditures, and (iii) the income level of agents. Our results then offer testable implications that can explain (i) why few people buy Long Term Care insurance and (ii) the discrepancies between various empirical works when measuring the extent of state-dependent preferences for LTC.

Man fatally shot at Coronado Park - Albuquerque Journal
Man fatally shot at Coronado Park
By Matthew Reisen / Journal Staff Writer
Published: Tuesday, June 14th, 2022 at 11:30AM
Updated: Tuesday, June 14th, 2022 at 10:01PM
Detectives investigate a fatal shooting inside a homeless encampment Tuesday morning at a park in Northwest Albuquerque. (Adolphe Pierre-Louis/Albuquerque Journal)
A man was shot and killed early Tuesday morning at a city park north of Downtown — a place that has stirred years of complaints about the large homeless encampment in the area.
It was the fourth homicide at or within a block of Coronado Park, at Third and Interstate 40, since 2019. It is unclear if the man who was killed, 33-year-old Andrew Aguilar, lived at the encampment.
The park has been central to the debate over how the city addresses homelessness.
People who live and work nearby have complained for years about the city's relatively hands-off approach to the those who camp there overnight.
In an unrelated news conference, Mayor Tim Keller addressed those concerns, saying federal courts "will not allow us to just walk in and arrest someone because they're homeless" and the current situation beats the alternative.
"It is not lost on me that we created Coronado Park because Wells Park said, 'We don't want these folks in our neighborhood,' and we agree with them. And that's why they were all grouped to one area," he said. "So you also got to remember the alternative. You can't have it both ways — you want to close Coronado Park, you are going to open all of Wells Park neighborhood to something none of us want to see."
The latest incident at the park happened in the early morning hours.
Albuquerque Police Department Lt. Ray Del Greco said around 2:30 a.m. a man who lived at the park walked up to a nearby fire station to report a man had been shot. He said firefighters responded to the park and found a man shot to death.
He said police are investigating and did not give any other details.
"We don't have a lot to go on," Del Greco said Tuesday afternoon.
Keller was questioned about the park Tuesday afternoon during a news conference on reclaimed water outside the Sunport.
He said the city has plans for addressing homelessness, including the long-awaited Gateway Center shelter and services center at the old Lovelace hospital — a project he said has been delayed due to neighborhood opposition and a "neverending purgatory of policy" — and safe outdoor spaces, a concept the City Council last week approved as a new land use in Albuquerque.
Regarding Coronado, the city currently dispatches a multi-department team to temporarily clear and clean up the park every other week. The effort costs $27,154 each time, according to numbers provided to the City Council last month.
Rachel Biggs, chief strategy officer with Albuquerque Healthcare for the Homeless, said the homeless population experiences violence at a rate 25 times higher than the general population.
In New Mexico, she said, unsheltered homelessness has higher rates of early mortality, dying 20 to 30 years sooner than those who are housed.
Bigg said she believed everyone in the community "can agree that people should not be forced to live outside."
"I know we are all coming at this from different viewpoints but when we talk about folks living unsheltered in our community we look at it as an issue of human rights, social justice and health for everyone in a community," she said.
Biggs said AHCH invests time and resources "into solutions that we know hold up to ending homelessness and that is housing."

If you are involved in a matrimonial dispute, you will realise they have the potential to require both a wide ranging and an in-depth level of expertise ranging from tax and trust advice, to valuation services, to ascertaining the assets and liabilities and other available resources of each party.
Tax and trust considerations will often be critical in structuring your financial settlement on divorce. This can be so when the interests of both parties are centred on the UK and will be particularly so if there is an international dimension to the dispute. This includes where assets are held by offshore trustees or one or the other of you and your former partner are not resident or not domiciled in the UK for tax purposes.
The approach of Ritchie Phillips in these circumstances is to identify all key tax and trust issues at an early stage. This will enable you to negotiate in your matrimonial dispute a financial settlement on divorce which is effective for tax purposes and can be robustly defended against any subsequent challenge from tax authorities both in the UK and in other jurisdictions.
Our assistance ranges from in depth advice to clients and their lawyers to providing reports as an expert witness. We are instructed as both single joint experts and individual named experts in providing accounting evidence.

Carrier Snake Bite. What Should They Do Now?
By Rich Tehrani, CEO, Technology Marketing Corporation | November 01, 2011
This article originally appeared in the Nov. 2011 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY.
For carriers the world over, the competitive threat has shifted drastically this past decade from other telcos to a new breed of companies that didn't exist a mere 15 years ago. Disruption has no boundaries. It attacks incumbent industries like snake venom attacks the nervous system and cells of its victim – causing eventual death.
An iconic brand like Eastman Kodak, for example, was rumored to be going bankrupt a few weeks back – and this is a company that embraced digital photography as early as any company around. Kodak reminds us that seeing disruption coming, and even responding, does not guarantee survival.
Billions of people use phones around the world and in the past 10 years, hundreds of millions of users have adopted Skype, Twitter (News - Alert) and Facebook as their primary method of communications. At any point last century, when a carrier lost a customer it had the opportunity to call that customer and give them a special offer or bundle and get them back.
But to someone who has "evolved" from traditional telephony to communication via social and VoIP, it is fairly obvious you can't get them back offering them a bundle on old technology. No amount of bundling would have saved sales in the typewriter industry when Wang word processors and PCs became popular, and the same is true for telecom.
If you don't compete on the same technology plane as the new wave of disruptive competitors, you may as well pet a wild cobra on the head.
Some History
IMS was supposed to allow open frameworks so carriers could allow new apps to be distributed on their networks, and I remember the providers telling me they thought they could approve about a dozen apps per year. Consider how the market has evolved in just a few years as a result of iOS and Android devices; there are now hundreds of thousands of apps in their stores. But when the iPhone (News - Alert) became an "open" platform for new apps, the carriers were immediately cut out of the equation. In a way, the success of smartphones with a plethora of apps is the biggest challenge our industry faces.
A huge part of the challenge for carriers is losing ownership of the address book and relationships a customer has. At one point, the address book was controlled by devices the carriers sanctioned and were linked to phone numbers that had a recurring revenue stream associated with them. Nowadays, Facebook can be the single resource for communications among a network of friends. Ditto for Skype, Twitter and others. A byproduct of new entrants and changes in user behavior has also resulted in voice revenue declining, meaning carriers need to rapidly come up with new revenue streams and ways to increase ARPU and stickiness.
Metaswitch Forum 2011
At the recent Metaswitch Forum 2011 in Las Vegas the company devoted considerable effort helping its carrier customers compete in this brave new world. The event was the eighth put on by the company and attracted 800 global service providers. And the carriers at the event were extremely knowledgeable – I had two speaking slots and asked them a barrage of questions, and people seemed to all be on their game.
Competitors from Everywhere
And boy do they need to be. Just a few days before the event, Amazon launched its $199 Kindle Fire – a game-changing device in that it is so cheap and powerful. Although it has no microphone or camera, it has helped usher in an era where cloud-based and e-commerce services will help defray the loss of the $50 Amazon is said to be losing on each tablet. To show you how fast things change in a few weeks, analyst reports say the company will have the second-best selling tablet on the market. That's quite an accomplishment.
Moreover, just recently Microsoft formally announced its completion of the acquisition of Skype. Does this mean more opportunity for carriers or less? Will Redmond screw up the company or deeply integrate Skype into all of its apps? Heaven knows that while Skype was under eBay (News - Alert) it barely progressed; but my sense is this is a much more strategic product for Microsoft and will fit in nicely with everything else.
Evolution of Industries
Mobile, social and consumer and enterprise are all becoming one – while we're at it throw in music, movies, photography, entertainment in general and search. Convergence is an insatiable monster swallowing industry after industry – a Borg-like assimilation has wreaked havoc on existing players since before the mid-nineties when the CTI market formally introduced computers to telecom systems.
Speaking of convergence, the theme to me of this year's event was that it is all coming together. Earlier this year, the company showed me its Thrutu (News - Alert) (video) service, which it released to allow carriers to add social features to phone calls. With apps for iOS and Android, you can make a remote phone vibrate, send a map of your location, send contact details and photos – merging some of the best features we see in social networks into the phone call.
In some cases – like the vibrate feature – I am not aware of any social networks providing the same service.
More than 250,000 people have downloaded this app and, as a result, the company has a wealth of information about which features are the most used. This information is invaluable market research for carriers looking for added revenue streams and to increase the stickiness of their voice service at a time in which OTT may as well be the noise emanating from the backside of a rattlesnake.
Advanced Call Control
The future of the carrier business, according to Metaswitch, is in part being driven by advanced call control – the ability to do many of the things Thrutu already does and eventually allowing communication sessions to migrate between devices – let's say from a tablet to a phone and perhaps a TV.
The company believes the ultimate differentiator is quality of experience – and they know that carriers are uniquely positioned to provide the best quality video, voice and advanced services. Moreover, its experience in IMS, experience in developing consumer apps and history providing core IMS components makes it believe the company is uniquely positioned to help carriers move to the future.
Does this make sense? Yes, absolutely. And it seemed so obvious when I had a chance to catch up with Steve Gleave, the vice president of marketing at the company, and he mentioned how ridiculous it is that the screen goes blank when we make a phone call (referring to when we hold it to our ears). We live in a collaborative, multimedia world, but phone calls are generally voice only – until now. Perhaps this is why at the conference the company referred to Thrutu as "impulsive in-call sharing."
Metaswitch has clearly decided it is in the software business and will compete delivering end-to-end telecom solutions from applications servers to SBCs and switching solutions. Its recent acquisition of Colibria brings tremendous engineering expertise in the world of IM/SMS, presence, centralized address book solutions GSMA RCS or Rich Communications Suite.
Prescription for Carrier Success
I firmly believe you can't know where you are going if you don't acknowledge the past. To that end, here are some key points from presentations at the event:
The global middle-class is growing rapidly, meaning more opportunity for mobile devices and apps. There are under 2 billion today, and they are projected to increase to 5 billion by 2030.
Apple is the biggest competitor to the carriers.
It took only six quarters for Google Android to become the No. 1 OS.
Every decade a new list of tech winners emerges, generally displacing leaders from the past decade – think DEC, Honeywell (News - Alert), NCR, Prime and Wang.
Apple got to be the biggest company in the world by market cap by charging for stuff that makes people look cool.
What Sets Metaswitch Apart
In an uplifting keynote session, company CEO Kevin DeNuccio made the pitch about the fact that consumers will pay for advanced services and, moreover, that Metaswitch is the carrier partner to help provide them.
He further touted the company's ability to design user interfaces and scale to billions with the ability to manage and secure – from provisioning to network visibility. He explained how his company can help carriers change network dynamics in a dramatic fashion, in part due to a flexible architecture that can be deployed on appliances, routers or in a distributed fashion.
He continued by saying Metaswitch is on the road together with customers for the next 5-10 years, and as partners on a journey they will achieve greatness. He closed, explaining that we are at the Sputnik moment, referring to the fact that the Russians got to space before the U.S. – basically a reference to the fact that Apple and Google have the lead. He continued, "Together we can get to the moon first."
Disruption really is like a venomous snake attack, but the honey badger is one of the animals which has not only evolved immunity to snake venom, it actively hunts venomous snakes and if it gets bitten while killing the snake, it takes a nap for a few hours, awakens and eats the snake. This animal should be the role model for any company in any industry facing disruption.

Whilst the limousine service originated in America, limousine services in Germany are incredibly popular. Hiring a limo is a luxurious, practical and efficient way to get from A to B in style, making it a great choice for business travellers who want to relax and unwind between meetings without wasting too much time away from their desks. Read notes, make calls, or even just take five minutes to read the newspaper: by freeing up your journey time, the choice is yours.
Germany is well known as being a paradise for car lovers who like to go fast: the national speed limit on the nation's autobahns varies, and whilst you will spend much of your journey restricted to 80 mph, there are sections of the road where the only speed limit is as fast as your speedometer will take you!
Just because you're not behind the wheel doesn't mean you can't enjoy this commitment to speed: there is nothing more exhilarating than travelling in a fast-moving limo and watching the world whizz by your windows.
Of course, limousine services in Germany aren't just for business executives. If you're visiting Germany for a romantic weekend in Berlin or Oktoberfest beer festival in Munich then why not hire a limo to show you the sights in style?
The convenience of a chauffeur driven limo makes it one of the best ways to explore Germany's fine cities without having to worry about the hustle and bustle of public transport.
If you want to travel further afield then you could also consider hiring a limousine to show you the splendour of the Black Forest or the beauty of the Rhine Valley. Don't forget to stop and sample the local cuisine on your way back to your hotel and of course, sample a glass (or two) of Germany's famous beer.
