The VC4Africa team just returned from an amazing trip to Ethiopia where we presented at the Making Finance Work in Africa conference, hosted a VC4Africa meetup and ran a workshop on business modeling at ICE Ethiopia, the country’s first real technology incubator. See a video on a similar trip we made recently to Cameroon and the work we did there with ActivSpaces. We also did video pitches with the entrepreneurs and many said it was the first time this was ever done in the country. Can you imagine that? The country is just incredibly inspiring. 85 million people and by 2050 the population could double. The market potential for mobile/web services is immense and waiting to be unlocked.
To some dismay, France Telecom runs the only telco. Ironic when you buy a simcard and receive the message, ‘welcome and thank you for choosing our service.’ The Seacom cable has been connected and prices have dropped 80% in the past three months, yet the real impact seems yet to come. Connecting with TEAMS could further increase access, but without a terrestial backbone in place access remains limited. Although only 400.000 people might have access to internet the enthusiasm for social networking is confirmed when 75% of these users can be found on Facebook. The country counts no more than maybe 20 bloggers although these numbers are sure to change fast.
Local techpreneurs know they want to be early and are looking at numerous ways to build services for the market. Advanced mobile services are not yet relevant given low smartphone penetration. Mobile banking and SMS information based services were the most talked about. Setting up locally is quite difficult and often entrepreneurs are connecting with Diaspora in the US. Often the businesses register in the US, get funding from the US and/or share in development. Also a VC network from Germany are looking at Ethiopia as a potential market to engage early and building on the significant German presence in Addis.
The barcamp starting today (after a party last night) will follow last year’s success. And where the first barcamp saw some 300 participants this year’s event will possibly see 700 people come together. There is clearly a growing enthusiasm for a digital future in Ethiopia.

With nice aesthetic design (such as the organic insect-like interface in Starcraft for that Zerg race), non-deigetic connects don't always ruin immersion, or result in the player feel like away from the game developer.
Diegetic Connects
Creating visualizations for non-diegetic connects is simpler, because the visualizations only need to become construed through the player. Diegetic connects, however, are connects which exist within the game world. They are connects that has to seem sensible for both the figures on the planet and also the player from the game.
Diegetic connects help to make a game title more immersive. If your health bar and ammunition count are displayed inside a non-diegetic way, stuck at the very top or bottom from the screen, it may be distracting. Anything throws the gamer is generally a bad factor particularly when you’re exploring an abandoned spaceship and shooting space zombies. Deadspace is really a game where almost all interface components and visualizations are diegetic.

Within this screenshot of Deadspace, you will find a minimum of three apparent bits of data being visualized - plus they all exist both hanging around world but for the player.
First, the bar. In Deadspace, your character’s health is symbolized as cyan colored bars on the rear of the in-game developer character (close to the bottom left from the screen). Health is really a status usually shown by a bar chart in Deadspace it’s still basically a bar chart but it’s really around the character in game.
Second, your weapon’s ammunition count. Your gun includes a kind of heads-up display considering the variety of ammunition left. It appears static within the screenshot, however that display really is available hanging around world, and moves around using the character. You and the smoothness begin to see the ammunition displayed.Third, the targeting lines. In games like Counterstrike or Cod, a crosshair is generally accustomed to indicate where your bullet goes. A crosshair is really a non-diegetic interface component - the gamer on the planet cannot begin to see the crosshair solve these questions .. In Deadspace, there's no crosshair. Rather, the thing is a laser showing where your bullets will fly. You and the smoothness see these laser lines.
Visualizations and Immersion
Visualizations in games do not need to feel “tacked on.” They may be subtle. When playing Deadspace, my “health bar” doesn't seem like an explicit data visualization. The diegetic visualization of the health bar makes me feel like it’s giving me information without getting to check out it. game developer produces much more of a psychological reaction than an intellectual one.

The Kahala Hotel & Resort
5000 Kahala Avenue
Honolulu, Hawaii
In 1959 real estate developer Charlie Pietsch Jr obtained a long term land lease on the 6 1/2 acre hotel site from Bishop Estate. Being a member of Bishop's Trust Executive Committee helped! With Waialae lease in hand, Pietsch puts together a 50/50 deal with his acquaintance Conrad Hilton. Pietsch signed a contract with Hilton International to operate the proposed 10 story hotel.
Pietsch suggested the name The Kahala Hilton because Waialae was too hard to pronounce and spell. Architects were Killingsworth, Brady, and Smith of Long Beach. The groundbreaking of the 368-room Kahala was in 1962 and the resort opened in 1964 with a $26 rate. The construction of the hotel resulted in Waialae Country Club to redesign several of its golf course holes. The resort used the post-and-beam construction on a grand scale that became one of Killingsworth’s hallmarks. More than 100 coconut palms were planted. 18,000 yards of fine sand were barged from Molokai island to pad the beach front. The resort cost $12 million to build. Killingsworth and his firm also designed the Halekulani Hotel, the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and the Kapalua Bay Hotel.
In 1968 Charles Pietsch sold his half of The Kahala to TWA, the owner of Hilton International, for $16.5 million.
1973 - TWA/Hilton International sells its shares in the hotel to mortgage holder Massachusetts Mutual life, but retains
management contract. Massachusetts Mutual Life sells its shares to MEPC, one of the largest property development
companies in the world at a price of over $20 million. In 1977 William Weinberg initiates a plan to buy the hotel for a price between $26 and $28 million. The contract takes two years to negotiate before closing the deal in May 1977. William Weinberg (WKH Corp.) owned the Kahala Hilton hotel from 1977 to 1993, this investment was most near and dear to his heart.
In 1993, WKH Corp. sold the 6.5 acre resort to an investment group then headed by isle developer Bill Mills after an arbitration panel raised the resort's annual lease rent from $96,000 a year to $5.6 million a year. Bishop Estate had proposed an annual rent of $13.5 million while WKH offered to pay $1.3 million a year. Japan-based Kahala Royal Corp. (Katsumi Iida) and local developer Bill Mills paid an estimated $50 million.
In 1996 the hotel was renamed Kahala Mandarin Oriental after a 40 percent investment by Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. The Mandarin Oriental Group took over management, lasting until 2005
In 2005 Kahala Royal Corp., the Hawai'i firm owned by Katsumi Iida, paid $97 million to Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group for its 40 percent stake in the hotel on land leased from the Kamehameha Schools. Trinity Investments of Honolulu bought the hotel for $175 million in 2006 and rebranded it "The Kahala." Trinity is owned by California hotelier Chuck Sweeney and attorney Jon Miho of Honolulu.
In August 2014 - The Kahala Hotel & Resort was sold to Japanese-based Resorttrust Inc. for $300 million, which equates to $887,000 per room, the highest per-room price ever paid for an Oahu hotel property. Resorttrust will use the hotel as part of its time-share network. The new owner plans to retain Landmark Hotels Inc., the Trinity affiliate that took over management of the hotel in March 2006. All employees are expected to be retained by Resorttrust, which will assume the collective bargaining agreement between the hotel and UNITE HERE! Local 5.

One street in the tract had backyards that backed up to the Knollwood golf course. The grounds were still rather spare back then, but now the pines tower over the fairways.
nrhp # 66000731- Beale Street Historic District- Beale Street was created in 1841 by entrepreneur and developer Robertson Topp (1807–1876), who named it for a forgotten military hero. The original name was Beale Avenue. Its western end primarily housed shops of trade merchants, who traded goods with ships along the Mississippi River, while the eastern part developed as an affluent suburb.[5] In the 1860s, many black traveling musicians began performing on Beale. The first of these to call Beale Street home were the Young Men's Brass Band,[5] who were formed by Sam Thomas in 1867.
In the 1870s, the population of Memphis was rocked by a series of yellow fever epidemics, leading the city to forfeit its charter in 1879.[5] During this time, Robert Church purchased land around Beale Street that would eventually lead to his becoming the first black millionaire from the south.[5] In 1890, Beale Street underwent renovation with the addition of the Grand Opera House, later known as the Orpheum. In 1899, Church paid the city to create Church Park at the corner of 4th and Beale. It became a recreational and cultural center, where blues musicians could gather. A major attraction of the park was an auditorium that could seat 2,000 people.[7] Some of the famous speakers in the Church Park Auditorium were Woodrow Wilson, Booker T. Washington, and Franklin D. Roosevelt.[5]
In the early 1900s, Beale Street was filled with many clubs, restaurants and shops, many of them owned by African-Americans. In 1889, NAACP co-founder Ida B. Wells was a co-owner and editor of an anti-segregationist paper called Free Speech based on Beale. Beale Street Baptist Church, Tennessee's oldest surviving African American Church edifice built in 1864, was also important in the early civil rights movement in Memphis.
In 1903, Mayor Thornton was looking for a music teacher for his Knights of Pythias Band and called Tuskegee Institute to talk to his friend, Booker T. Washington, who recommended a trumpet player in Clarksdale, Mississippi named W. C. Handy. Mayor Thornton contacted Handy, and Memphis became the home of the famous musician who created the "Blues on Beale Street." Mayor Thornton and his three sons also played in Handy's band.[8]
In 1909, W. C. Handy wrote "Mr. Crump" as a campaign song for political machine leader E. H. Crump. The song was later renamed "The Memphis Blues." Handy also wrote a song called "Beale Street Blues" in 1916 which influenced the change of the street's name from Beale Avenue to Beale Street. From the 1920s to the 1940s, Louis Armstrong, Muddy Waters, Albert King, Memphis Minnie, B. B. King, Rufus Thomas, Rosco Gordon and other blues and jazz legends played on Beale Street and helped develop the style known as Memphis Blues. As a young man, B. B. King was billed as "the Beale Street Blues Boy." One of Handy's proteges on Beale Street was the young Walter Furry Lewis, who later became a well known blues musician. In his later years Lewis lived near Fourth and Beale, and in 1969 was recorded there in his apartment by Memphis music producer Terry Manning.
In 1934, local community leader George Washington Lee authored Beale Street: Where the Blues Began; the first book by a black author to be advertised in the Book-of-the-Month Club News.[9]
In 1938, Lewis O. Swingler, editor of the Memphis World Newspaper, a Negro newspaper, in an effort to increase circulation, conceived the idea of a "Mayor of Beale St.," having readers vote for the person of their choice. Matthew Thornton, Sr., a well-known community leader, active in political, civic and social affairs and one of the charter members of the Memphis Branch of the NAACP, won the contest against nine opponents and received 12,000 of the 33,000 votes cast. Mr. Thornton was the original "Mayor of Beale St." an honorary position that he retained until he died in 1963 at the age of 90.
By the 1960s, Beale had fallen on hard times and many businesses closed, even though the section of the street from Main to 4th was declared a National Historic Landmark on May 23, 1966.[1][3] On December 15, 1977, Beale Street was officially declared the "Home of the Blues" by an act of Congress. Despite national recognition of its historic significance, Beale was a virtual ghost town after a disastrous urban renewal program that razed blocks of buildings in the surrounding neighborhood, as well as a number of buildings on Beale Street.
In 1973, the Beale Street Development Corporation (BSDC) was formed by George B. Miller and others as a racially diverse, cooperative effort for the redevelopment of Beale Street. The corporation was selected by the City of Memphis to participate in the redevelopment of the blocks on Beale between Second and Fourth streets in August, 1978. The corporation dedicated its efforts to the success of the Beale Street project for the preservation of the street's rich history, and to its cultural as well as physical development. The BSDC secured 5.2 million dollars in grants for the renovation of Beale Street.
In 1982, the City of Memphis recommended that the BSDC hire a management company led by John A. Elkington to assist in the development of the street by securing new tenants, collecting rents and handling certain maintenance and security issues. Each new lease had to be agreed upon by BSDC, the City of Memphis and the management company, Performa.
The day-to-day management of Beale Street was turned over to the City of Memphis in an October, 2012 court decision after a long legal dispute involving the city, BSDC and Performa.[10]
During the first weekend of May (sometimes including late April), the Beale Street Music Festival brings major music acts from a variety of musical genres to Tom Lee Park at the end of Beale Street on the Mississippi River. The festival is the kickoff event of a month of festivities citywide known as Memphis in May

Decide When to Update Your Content
To create the illusion of movement in an animation you need to make changes to your content several times per second. That requires you to know when to perform those changes. Ideally, IOS developer want to perform the changes whenever there is a change to be performed but not more often than that. Adding more changes than you need will only spend extra processing time on something that won’t have an effect.
The simplest way to perform the changes is to use a CADisplayLink. The display link sends a message whenever the screen is going to refresh, which allows you to perform changes to your content exactly once per frame. When the animation is finished you can either pause the display link or disable it.
Using a continuous gesture recognizer, like a pan, pinch, or rotation recognizer, is another way to identify when you should perform changes to your content. The gesture recognizer forces IOS developer to accept that you won’t be trying to perform those changes when the user hasn’t moved their finger, and when there aren’t any changes to perform. A more advanced way is to use the scrollViewDidScroll: delegate method of a UIScrollView. We cover how you can tap into gesture recognizers and the UIScrollView behavior later in this article.
Define the Progress of Your Animation
In addition to knowing when to update your content, you need to establish what about your content will actually change and how it will do so over time. The progress of the animation is usually stored as a floating point value in the [0,1] range, where 0 is the initial state and 1 the final state. To determine the progress of your animation you need to establish the following items.The beginning and end of your animation. IOS developer a good idea to normalize the progress of your animation to the [0,1] range. This makes it easier to interpolate properties and more obvious where the animation progress currently is.

Business reviews, have in a single form or any other, existed because the first business. Gradually older, slower, and much more manual review processes happen to be converted online, and you will find now whole sites for business reviews, as well as whole PHP developer for particular types of companies (AngiesList, Houzz, TripAdvisor, etc.). Before jumping into the significance of reviews, let’s move back…
Bearing in mind user behavior like a context and Google more particularly - users have flocked to Google in mass - since it is perhaps “the best internet search engine.” This concept, and just how Google has achieved, maintained and grown this concept (and share of the market) has, we feel, come lower to numerous things, most significantly, consumer experience. Since first day Google attempted to “organize the world’s information” which has changed with time. This really is most clearly evidenced by it’s advertising platform - AdWords. As Rand Fishkin, the mind of search tool giant Moz, eloquently place it at MozCon 2015 - the very best online services possess a practice of embracing (or at best searching at) the following big factor which will kill their business - and purchasing individuals things, even if it takes away from their very own revenue model. Which factor for Google? Absolutely Consumer Experience.
For a long time AdWords advertisers have understood this idea, as they’ve been forced (or incentivized :)) to supply the very best experience to searchers. We’re rewarded when our ads match our keywords, when they’re well crafted - and today more progressively, rewarded once the PHP developer
we send these to is extremely enhanced, fast, etc.
Bing is pushing All things in a person-experience direction. Go ahead and take “mobile-geddon” situation we reported on in March… where Google announced it might promote websites that were mobile friendly and responsive, while (potentially/eventually) demote PHP developer that weren’t - ultimately while using info on each page because the true metric to balance everything out (how can you an incredibly enhanced website when the content sucks or doesn’t answer anyone’s questions?!).
