I think this amendment to be approved to be effective. 20 calendar days. If the effective date is oct 15, 20 calendar days is nov 5th. Correct?
Could Glassware be involved in ANY of these deals? Just wondering!!!
FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Deutsche Telekom and China Mobile <0941.HK> will sign a deal on Friday to create a platform for so-called connected cars in China, a Deutsche Telekom spokesman said on Thursday.
The two companies will form a joint venture in which the German telecoms group will bring its technology for machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, while China Mobile will provide the network.
Deutsche did not provide further detail and is due to make an announcement on Friday, though German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung quoted management board member Reinhard Clemens as saying that the company's investment would be in the double-digit millions.
Telecoms and technology companies are looking to tap an expected surge in demand for M2M communications via the Internet to enable products from cars and washing machines to turbines and medical equipment to carry out more tasks more efficiently.
Cars are at the forefront of the new industry, with manufacturers striving to add new features to their vehicles, such as music streaming, audio books, navigation aids and security improvements.
The market for such technology is expected to be worth $20 billion a year by 2018, against $8 billion last year, according to telecoms research company Juniper.

China Mobile certifies Ericsson's LTE advanced modem
2014-05-12 Categories: Press Releases
The world's smallest 5-mode LTE Advanced Carrier Aggregation modem, the Ericsson M7450, is fully tested and certified by China Mobile
First devices integrating the Ericsson M7450 will be on the market in the second half of this year
Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) today announced that the M7450 5-mode modem chipset, covering all five access technologies (TD-LTE, LTE FDD, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA and GSM), has been fully tested and certified for use in China Mobile's network. Targeting smartphones, tablets and other connected devices, the LTE Advanced multimode modems are an integral part of the development of the wireless industry.
The strong performance of the power-efficient Ericsson M7450 modem in all five access technologies ensures an outstanding user experience. Seamless handovers between the different technologies mean improved quality of data streaming and secured mobility.
Robert Puskaric, Senior Vice President and Head of Business Unit Modems says: "Passing this important validation process with China Mobile confirms that our modems more than meet the requirements of the market. Partners and customers are assured that the Ericsson M7450 modem will deliver high-speed and consistent connection in all five modes. China is an important market for us and we have a close collaboration with China Mobile. We look forward to having 4G 5-mode smartphones and other connected devices powered by the Ericsson M7450 modem running on the China Mobile 4G network."
Ericsson M7450 is the world's smallest LTE Advanced Carrier Aggregation modem designed for global usage. This highly integrated multimode multi-band modem also covers the widest array of frequency bands and a feature set that includes Single RF Chip Carrier Aggregation, VoLTE and IMS.
In order for devices with a modem to be sold in certain markets, operator certification is required. In addition to this certification of the Ericsson M7450 from China Mobile, certification with global operators in North America, Europe and Asia is progressing as planned. First devices integrating the Ericsson M7450 will be on the market in the second half of this year.

The future of cars
Wireless wheels
Connected cars will make driving safer, cleaner and more efficient. Their introduction should be speeded up
Sep 6th 2014
SINCE Henry Ford turned it into a mass-market product a century ago, the car has delivered many benefits. It has boosted economic growth, increased social mobility and given people a lot of fun. No wonder mankind has taken to the vehicle with such enthusiasm that there are now a billion automobiles on the world’s roads.
But the car has also brought many problems. It pollutes the air, creates congestion and kills people. An astonishing 1.24m people die, and as many as 50m are hurt, in road accidents each year. Drivers and passengers waste around 90 billion hours in traffic jams each year. In some car-choked cities as much as a third of the petrol used is burned by people looking for a space to park.
Fortunately, an emerging technology promises to make motoring safer, less polluting and less prone to hold-ups (see Technology Quarterly). “Connected cars”—which may eventually evolve into driverless cars but for the foreseeable future will still have a human at the wheel—can communicate wirelessly with each other and with traffic-management systems, avoid pedestrians and other vehicles and find open parking spots.
Get smart
Some parts of the transformation are already in place. Many new cars are already being fitted with equipment that lets them maintain their distance and stay in a motorway lane automatically at a range of speeds, and recognise a parking space and slot into it. They are also getting mobile-telecoms connections: soon, all new cars in Europe will have to be able to alert the emergency services if their on-board sensors detect a crash. Singapore has led the way with using variable tolls to smooth traffic flows during rush-hours; Britain is pioneering “smart motorways”, whose speed limits vary constantly to achieve a similar effect. Combined, these innovations could create a much more efficient system in which cars and their drivers are constantly alerted to hazards and routed around blockages, traffic always flows at the optimum speed and vehicles can join up into “platoons” on the motorways, travelling closer together, yet with less risk of crashing.
Just as regulation has helped increase fuel efficiency, cut exhaust fumes and introduce anti-skid equipment, so government involvement is needed to get the connected car on the road. It is beginning to happen. Earlier this year, Europe’s standards-setting agencies agreed a common set of protocols for cars and traffic infrastructure to communicate. Others should follow. Governments should then set firm deadlines for all new cars to be fully connected and capable of platooning, and a date for existing cars to be retrofitted with a basic locator beacon and the ability to receive hazard warnings.
If cars are to connect, new infrastructure will have to be built. Roads and parking spaces will need sensors to monitor them; motorways will need dedicated lanes for platooning. But this will not necessarily be expensive. Upgrading traffic signals so they can be controlled remotely by a central traffic-management system is a lot cheaper than building new roads.
The sooner these changes are made, and cars are plugged into a smart traffic grid, the quicker Singaporean variable pricing—for parking as well as road use—can become the norm. Motorists will then have the incentive, as well as the ability, to avoid the busiest places at the busiest times, and the dreadful toll that roads take in human lives should start falling.
In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more fumes. In future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain.
This is interesting given the relation between sphere3d and Ericsson.

Thanks JFM. Now I got it
Glta
Thanks jb. I locked up my shares but this drama is getting old.
Glta
Got a call from fidelity to loan my shares out! Why would I let someone borrow my knife so they can stab me?
Looks like shorts are aggressively borrowing shares to short. How long can this thing go on and can the management do anything at all to protect the shareholders?
Thanks and Glta.
ps. landed landed contract for "other techology"...very large, 5x revenue of recent PR. My guess Glassware contract could be equal if not larger. And this is only one example...IMHO....ANY only needs boots on the ground.
Did the IT director call spiffy before deciding to go with other tech? Couldn't spiffy help them out and get the business? I am confused.
Please clarify.
Thanks

Rory Monaghan's info from his website:
My name is Rory Monaghan, I currently work out of Phoenix, Arizona.
I can be contacted via e-mail: Rory@rorymon.com
I have been working in the application and desktop space since 2007. I worked as a lead on Windows 7 migration and virtualization projects. I started working with APP-V back when it was Softricity Softgrid, which as some would know meant there was very little information available online and so it meant troubleshooting issues for hours, days and in some cases weeks. Documentation was thin on the ground and the sequencer at the time was quite buggy, sometimes producing applications with incorrect information or missing information. So it was a manual task to go over and figure out what was missing, or trying to figure out if an application could actually work as a virtual application at all.
I have been quite lucky as over the years I got exposure to working for enterprises of varying sizes and in differing industries e.g. Banks, Publishing, Insurance etc. Each presenting with unique challenges and also with some cool technologies. I’ve used SCCM 2007 R2, SCCM 2012, SCVMM, RemoteApp, XenApp, XenDesktop, VMWare Workstation, VMWare ESX, Hyper-V, XenServer, APP-V, ThinApp, AppSense, AppDNA, Changebase, Admin Studio,Wise Package Studio, MED-V and more. I love learning, I try to keep up with all different technologies. To this point APP-V has been my area of expertise, I’ve found myself focusing a lot on it. I believe in it as a solution and find it’s progress exciting.
My goal of this blog is to make it as easy to read as possible. I’m sure I take a lot for granted and so some product knowledge would be required to understand my posts but I do make an effort to use plain English and keep things as straight forward as I can. I hope you enjoy my blog.
I should also state that this is my own personal blog. The opinions which I present here are entirely my own. I purposely do not mention my employers name and have no intention for my site to be in any way affiliated with my current employers.
Here is some great news on Rory Monaghan's blog on briforum in Boston
http://rorymon.com/blog/index.php/boston-briforum-2014-review/#more-2131
This was the first event I attended which had vendor booths at it. That was so cool! I got to see some new products I wasn’t even aware existed. Sphere 3D is one I’m definitely going to keep an eye on. So many vendors have promised to help you deliver any app, any OS, any device before but these guys seem to have a working solution. I have more questions before just out and out announcing it as our new savior from the evils of legacy applications but it’s worth a look, for sure!
May be something going on with nvidia. In pb's pics on one drive take a look at the 2nd pic after the sphere3d. It's NVIDIA. Coincidence?

I don't buy the theory that that releasing news before the merger would geoparadize the merger, the same way the news of intent to merge on may 15 didn't have any effect of Nasdaq approval. What is frustrating here is that we get the news from a remote or indirect source like CCPS deal. What is wrong with the picture here? All we longs want is a bone thrown in our way for reassurance. Is that too much to ask for?
We thought the news were held because of Nasdaq approval, the company being too busy, have to prioritize their time, Boston T party, OVRL merger, etc, etc. May be big boys like google or Apple want to acquire us but we can't release any news in the meantime until they say OK, or is the news flow controlled by the Financiers?
PT, please be sensible, think of us, show us the Beef directly, We want our company to be KNOWN, not Hidden!!!
Thank You

Ericsson Cloud Manager 2.0 provides support for flexible and programmable operations
OSS/BSS solution orchestrates onboarding, provisioning, quality and lifecycle of virtualized network and IT functions
Keeps service quality consistent, regardless of complexity with proactive, policy-based actions
Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) today announced general availability of Ericsson Cloud Manager 2.0, which helps operators turn the cloud into a source of operational efficiency and new revenue generation. Ericsson Cloud Manager supports operators as they move to virtualized infrastructures in an effort to lower costs, improve service quality and pursue new business opportunities, and is a key component when transforming the network infrastructure to Cloud and Service Provider SDN. Key OSS/BSS support includes orchestration, management and monitoring of services running on geographically distributed, virtualized and physical resources.
The comprehensive offering is leveraged on proven Ericsson software components and is available as part of Ericsson Cloud System or as a stand-alone product. The latest release adds performance and fault management of virtual resources. It can integrate with legacy systems, programmable networks and third-party ecosystems.
Elisabetta Romano, Vice President and Head of OSS and Service Enablement, Business Unit Support Solutions, Ericsson, says: "As operators migrate from legacy solutions to the cloud, Ericsson Cloud Manager orchestrates the complex associations between virtualized network functions and underlying resources. When our customers deploy Ericsson Cloud Manager, they gain a flexible foundation for making networks more responsive to customer needs while optimizing resource utilization."
Operators that leverage the power of the cloud can flexibly deliver new services with guaranteed quality, reduced time to market and optimized network resource utilization. A successful cloud strategy requires automation and orchestration of on-demand provisioning processes and coordination of cloud resources in the context of complex, dynamic systems. Ericsson Cloud Manager 2.0 delivers on these requirements to make the creation and delivery of more flexible services possible.
To meet consumer demand, operators need to keep improving the customer experience, capture new revenues and drive business efficiencies. Ericsson is enabling operators to become agile with a comprehensive, unified OSS/BSS software suite as well as world-class consulting, systems integration and managed services capabilities.

Overland Storage merges with who?
Overland Storage announces merger with Sphere 3D, little known Canadian developer of Glasshouse 2.0 (TSX VENTURE:ANY, OTCQX:SPIHF, NASDAQ:OVRL)
By: Kalen Kimm | Storage News | Posted: 1 week, 1 day ago
"It is the Sphere 3D's Glassware 2.0 product that is the most interesting part of this equation, though. The Glassware solution, according to the Sphere 3D marketing material, allows any device to access any application or software program - regardless of OS. As the world is moving towards BYOD and the 3rd platform, the possibility of such easy interoperability is very intriguing. Also, this product category is in the realm of Citrix and VMWare, very far removed from the legacy tape market that the Overland and Tandberg names were so well known for. Quite possibly, this is the reason the combined company will be known as Sphere 3D going forward"

I know DE is very corporate friendly. I wasn't sure if the investee is physically located in Delaware or not. I guess we will know in due time
GLTA
Are we inferring that the investee is located in Delaware, because the Plant biogenetics is set up in wilimington, Delaware?
Could it be that the investee could be located somewhere else, although the same location as investor makes sense!
Also, the investee could be physically located somewhere else, but registered in Delaware?
Confusing!
GLTA
I believe Dupont and Syngenta are too big as an investee to allow XXII take 25% stake for 7ooK ie 2.8 million for the whole company. It makes sense that the investee is a small plant research company.
JMHO
GLTA
I think the company he is reffering to is GWPH, a biopharmaceutical company. They are not a plant bio tech company.
Here is info about them:
GW Pharmaceuticals plc, a biopharmaceutical company, together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in discovering, developing, and commercializing cannabinoid prescription medicines. The company operates through three segments: Sativex Commercial, Sativex Research and Development, and Pipeline Research and Development. The company primarily offers Sativex, an oromucosal spray for the treatment of MS symptoms, cancer pain, and neuropathic pain. It also focuses on the Phase III clinical development program of Sativex for use in the treatment of cancer pain. In addition, the company?s product pipeline includes an orphan childhood epilepsy program, as well as other product candidates in Phase I and II clinical development for the treatment of glioma, ulcerative colitis, type-2 diabetes, and schizophrenia. It has a strategic alliance with Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. The company operates in the United Kingdom, Europe, the United States, Canada, and Asia. GW Pharmaceuticals plc was founded in 1998 and is based in Salisbury, the United Kingdom.
I believe XXII is the plant biotech, which can alter the genes of tobacco and other plants

Be aware. Zhou is short scam artist. Last year in August he said YY is worthless at 40$, only to see stock gone to more then recent double at 90$, and now trading at 66$. Then he told lies about LL in June 2013 when LL was 75$ only to see LL gone to 120$, and currently after general market correction LL is trading at 84$. The same thing with HCI, he bashed them at 25$ only to see stock gone to 50, and currently trading at 35$. This guy should be reported to SEC .... Less

What UniPrint Customers Say
UniPrint adds value to our customers worldwide, in large and small, public and private sector organizations across industries. Share some of their success stories!
Healthcare
El Centro Regional Medical Center — United States
"UniPrint Infinity is straightforward, easy-to-use and comes with no compatibility issues; it works well in keeping complexity to a minimum."
- Henry Felix, Technical Services Manager, El Centro Regional Medical Center
------------------------------------------------------------------
Medical University of South Carolina — United States
"UniPrint overall is excellent. The people I have dealt with, whether it be in sales or tech support have been top notch, and that goes a long way to building customer loyalty."
- Jim Dirkes, System Engineer, University of South Carolina
------------------------------------------------------------------
Netgain — United States
"Without a tool like UniPrint, if you are doing print redirection in a terminal server environment or printing in the cloud, you are going to have problems. When our clients ask if we offer a virtualized printing solution we mention UniPrint and they are often familiar with them. All of our printing headaches have been solved."
- Brad Harrison, Director of Professional Services, Netgain
------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunrise Health Region — Canada
"We needed a print solution that would cost effectively add value to our IT infrastructure and support our complex daily printing requirements. UniPrint provided a comprehensive solution that was easy to install and integrate, worked seamlessly with our existing network and provided the security to protect confidential documents."
- Sheranga Jayasinghe, Director of Information Technology, Sunrise Health Region
------------------------------------------------------------------
VON — Canada
"UniPrint goes hand in hand with the Citrix environment. We also tried Citrix's own universal print solution and found UniPrint to be the best solution out there. It's really very reliable. We have a small IT staff here, so anything that reduces the number of service calls we receive, we love it. That's the name of the game!"
Scott McAdam, IT Operations Manager, VON Canada
------------------------------------------------------------------
Construction
Martin Marietta Materials — United States
"We're very happy with UniPrint and how they have been able to handle the printing challenge of terminal services and our highly distributed user environment. As an aggregates business, we're in very remote locations where it can be hard to get a good connection. UniPrint’s Universal Printer Driver solution has successfully helped us solve these issues."
- David Jastrow, Client Services Manager, Martin Marietta
------------------------------------------------------------------
Financial
Lincoln Financial Group — United States
We find that the ease of purchase, deployment, automated and instant licensing,
product transferability, and low resource overhead are all fantastic complements
to UniPrint too. Moreover, the per server pricing along with the yearly
maintenance and support is actually less than the other competitor. This is why
we are currently standardizing on UniPrint and will be cutting over to UniPrint
across our entire enterprise in the coming months. Technically, it is not at all
difficult, and our Sales Representative has been stellar in dealing with our
request for a "trade-in." In the very few times a particular application's
specialized need has had us call for support, we have been able to quickly get
skilled answers and solutions using UniPrint's built-in features and freely
available plug-ins. I've been using UniPrint for 8 years with nothing but
accolades for the product along with the sales and support staff.

Canfor — Canada
"I would certainly recommend UniPrint – from a support, features, performance and reliability standpoint, I think it’s a must-have add-on in a Citrix environment."
- Roy Kliewer, ITInfrastructure Team Leader, Canfor
------------------------------------------------------------------
Manufacturing
Carolina Container — United States
"If you are looking for an all-around solution, UniPrint is definitely the way to go. You might temporarily fix your printing problems with another solution but I don't think you are going to open the doors for new opportunities or growth with any of the other printing solution providers I've talked to."
-Jc Coleman, Network Administrator, Carolina Container
------------------------------------------------------------------
Sonoco-Alcore — Belgium
"From the start, UniPrint was exactly the solutionwe had been searching for. The set-up was uncomplicated and fast, and the product is an extension of our existing system, making its integration effortless. UniPrint Gateway is exactly how we had envisioned our printing system."
- Marc De Schryer, Manager of Computer Services and Infrastructure, Sonoco-Alcore
------------------------------------------------------------------
Retail
Carter's — United States
"Printer-related help desk calls have dropped dramatically since we switched to UniPrint. Printing was unquestionably the single biggest problem associated with our Citrix environment, and it would be no exaggeration to say that since installing UniPrint, administrators field 80 to 90 percent fewer calls. UniPrint really has provided a simple, efficient, and cost-effective method of eliminating all the issues that plague Citrix's own printing solution."
- Jeff Winters, Infrastructure Services Team Leader, Carter's Inc.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Utilities
Newfoundland Power Inc. — Canada
"Our users rely heavily on the e-mail functionality - we would never be able to take that away from them. I think the biggest bang for our buck is that there is only one single printer that we need to deal with. I have a lot better things to do than figure out why a client printer isn't working. We don't have to worry about that now. Overall, if someone was to ask me about a universal printing solution for Citrix, I would recommend UniPrint for sure."
- Melvin Goodyear, Senior Infrastructure Analyst, Newfoundland Power Inc.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Southern Company — United States
"UniPrint is much more than simple printing, it is industrial document rendering."
- David Shelby, Senior Data Systems Analyst, Southern Company
