Duncan Showed How To Respond To Undeserved Recognition
2009-10-10 14:37:00 Politicians and political appointees often seek (or are offered) accolades that are not yet deserved. This doesn't usually stop them from accepting. But it seems worth noting now that a year ago, when he was still just the head of the Chicago schools, Arne Duncan actually turned down an award from the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence because he felt like he didn't deserve it

Nuance (NUAN): Invest in speech recognition
2009-06-18 14:00:00 "For investors with a more aggressive bent, one stock on our radar is Nuance Communications (NASDAQ: NUAN)," says trading and investing expert Bill Martin.In BullMaret.com, he explains, "The firm's core niche is producing speech-based voice-recognition and synthesis software for use in corporate customer-care operations, mobile applications including the new iPhone and to automate health records.""Nuance creates those automated voices you have to listen to when what you really need is a human being to tell you why your cable modem isn't delivering the Internet. "While at times annoying, we acknowledge the cost-benefit for companies to use the technology to manage and screen routine customer calls."Its mobile speech solutions add voice-control capabilities to mobile devices and services; it's a necessity for 'hands free' cell phone operations that certainly make it safer to use a cell phone while operating a car."T...

Book Review...Pattern Recognition
2009-02-16 08:16:00 Pattern Recognition.William Gibson.2003.Berkley Publishing.367pages.About six months ago I stumbled across the BBC Comedy 7 website.It plays a selection of old and new comedy series such as The Goons as well as dramas and serialised book readings.Well worth listening to.Theres usually at least one show or reading that catches my attention during the week.In recent months Ive listened to a variety of readings including "I Am Legend" by Richard Matheson and "Jaws" by Peter Benchley.Both books have been adapted and made into movies.Its interesting to listen and compare how the books stand up against the movies.Certainly the latest"I Am Legend" movie with Will Smith is a pale imitation of the novel.Although most of the book readings are somewhat abridged they give you a good idea of what to expect should you want to go out and purchase the original hard copy.My interest was piqued late last month and I purchased a copy of "Pattern Recognition" by William Gibson after hearing the abridge...

Brand Value vs. Brand Recognition
2009-02-11 16:49:00 Let me share with you how we think about brand. There is a very important difference between brand value and brand recognition. Brand value means something to the end user. Brand recognition, all it means is a bunch of advertising to make people recognize the brand name. At HTC we care about brand value, not brand recognition. Building brand value is like earning respect; you have to earn respect, you cannot buy respect No related posts.

Speech Recognition
2008-09-12 11:04:00 Speech recognition is the process of converting an acoustic signal, captured by a microphone or a telephone, to a set of words. The recognized words can be the final results, as for applications such as commands & control, data entry, and document preparation. They can also serve as the input to further linguistic processing in order to achieve speech understanding. We have two exciting features namely Auto-Attendant and Appointment Scheduling which does speech recognition in our 800PBX system. Auto Attendant The automated attendant system allows callers to be automatically transferred to a user’s extension without the intervention of a receptionist. There is also a ‘dial-by-name’ directory to find user on a system. The dial-by-name directory is set up last name followed by first name. Once the user name is announced the caller can press # and it will automatically ring the extension, after announcing the correct extension number for the caller’s future ...

Billboard featuring facial recognition software…
2008-06-05 06:19:00 Billboards with facial recognition software just dripping of awesome yet scariness. There’s been rumors of “smart billboards” coming for a while now originally it was just an idea of combining cameras with billboards to record who was looking at them. But it’s as I said getting a bit more advanced with several advertisers also adding in facial recognition software to record other things besides the pictures but also important information such as age and gender and while they don’t mention it most likely race as well and other factors. Quividi has supplied camera equipped ads to McDonald’s in Singapore and Ikea in Europe but the technology is now moving toward coming the US now. It’s already begun deployment in New York for the A&E show “The Andromeda Strain” mini-series as well as in Philadelphia in train station based ads for Philadelphia Soul. But that’s just the beginning with a company named TruMedia deploying similar technology to about 30 locations t...

The Recognition of Israel - The impact, legacy and relevance of an earlier
2008-05-23 10:11:00 by Dan Lieberman The 60th anniversary of the state of Israel prompted reviews of the post World War II declarations that resulted in the formation of a nation that had no name until David Ben Gurion proclaimed on May 14, 1948, the birth of the new state of Israel. Books, articles, documents, memoirs and letters from past generations have detailed how a miniscule group of insiders prevailed over recommendations from the experienced and famous U.S. State Department of "wise men." An embattled clique, surrounded by powerful detractors, struggled against all odds and succeeded in its endeavors. It is the story of the Zionist mission. It is the story of Israel. The history is available, but the impact, legacy and relevance of the 1945-1948 events to today's occurrences have not been sufficiently explored. Under the surfaced stories are the hidden messages and obscure drives that shaped the past and extend into the future. A more complete analysis of the legacy...
