Using Data to Predict and Shape Consumer Behavior with Brian ReichCDS Global, Inc.
There is no shortage of data in the world – but there is a lack of understanding about how to apply that data and make it valuable to our work. The big promise of 'smart data' is not about efficiency or optimization - rather, we have an opportunity to define and shape the behaviors of our target audiences and maximize our efforts to reach, engage and compel them to action.
This CDS Global Summit keynote discusses:
• 'Smart Data" – What types of data is available and how can it be used, with a focus on identifying new potential audiences, predicting or shaping behaviors and personalizing marketing.
• Data culture and systems – How to apply big data to product development, marketing and operations, as well as the organizational capacity, flexibility and commitment that is required.
• Results – The impact that utilizing 'smart data' is having on a variety of industries and how it can be applied to publishers, nonprofits and other organizations.

On 24th February, Crimestoppers, the UK's independent crime-fighting charity, are launching a campaign to tackle meter tampering, a common form of energy theft. In addition to the increased costs that energy theft can place onto honest customer bills, tampering is a crime that can have very real and dangerous consequences like fires and explosions, which threaten the lives and homes of innocent people.
Crimestoppers play a unique role in tackling crime in the UK, by providing an anonymous reporting service for people to come forward without fearing the repercussions from the community or criminals themselves. In this campaign, we are using methods to reach as many people as possible in the Newcastle and Gateshead area to inform them of the criminal and safety consequences and signs to spot energy theft. Activity is also taking place to directly disrupt those who might be tempted to tamper. Find out about the campaign and watch the video here: http://goo.gl/urEEQs

To understand how social impacts their financial decision making, LinkedIn teamed up with Cogent Research and found that relevant content is key to driving action among this valuable group.
This document discusses how automotive brands can reach in-market vehicle buyers on LinkedIn in Canada. It finds that LinkedIn users in Canada have higher incomes than average auto enthusiasts and are more likely to be immediate vehicle buyers. Over half of LinkedIn users in Canada visit automotive sites, and 1 in 4 automotive site visitors are LinkedIn users. The document also summarizes a survey that finds many LinkedIn members in Canada own vehicles and plan to purchase a new one within a year, with over a third considering a hybrid. Members say experts, peers and automotive brands would influence their purchase decision and that brands could positively impact perception by sharing new vehicle, technology and industry information on LinkedIn.

Buyers today are sophisticated: they explore and discuss their options by accessing relevant content and connecting with others in their social network. They form perceptions about a brand before they've even had their first direct interaction with that brand. Research shows that by the time a buyer engages with your brand, he or she is already 60% of the way through their decision-making process. In order to reach that potential customer earlier in the process, you need a magnetic, well-targeted content marketing strategy.
At LinkedIn, we have always believed in a “members-first” approach to everything we do and marketers can benefit from doing the same. We have observed that professionals act differently on a professional social network as they are demanding more content and insights so that they can be great at what they do. As our members continue to seek out quality content, it opens up new opportunities for content marketers and publishers. By creating and publishing remarkable content in the form that educates, informs, inspires and entertains, marketers can begin to build relationships with prospects early on in the buying cycle. This fundamental shift is changing the mantra from “Always be Closing” to “Always be Helping.”
But creating remarkable content is only half the story. The latest findings from the Content Marketing Institute show that while 87% of survey respondents use social media for content distribution yet it received less than a 50% effectiveness rating. This is a clear indicator that there is a disconnect. The answer isn’t necessarily to create more content, but create more relevant content. The focus on relevancy will provide for a much better content experience and ultimately close this gap around content marketing success.
Announcing The 2014 Professional Content Consumption Report - CanadaLinkedIn Canada
We conducted a survey of LinkedIn members in Canada who actively share and consume content on LinkedIn, which revealed some surprising statistics.

Parabolic antenna alignment system with Real-Time Angle Position FeedbackStevenPatrick17
Introduction
Parabolic antennas are a crucial component in many communication systems, including satellite communications, radio telescopes, and television broadcasting. Ensuring these antennas are properly aligned is vital for optimal performance and signal strength. A parabolic antenna alignment system, equipped with real-time angle position feedback and fault tracking, is designed to address this need. This document delves into the components, design, and implementation of such a system, highlighting its significance and applications.
Importance of Parabolic Antenna Alignment
The alignment of a parabolic antenna directly affects its performance. Even minor misalignments can lead to significant signal loss, which can degrade the quality of the received signal or cause communication failures. Proper alignment ensures that the antenna's focal point is accurately directed toward the signal source, maximizing the antenna's gain and efficiency. This precision is especially crucial in applications like satellite communications, where the antenna must track geostationary satellites with high accuracy.
Components of a Parabolic Antenna Alignment System
A parabolic antenna alignment system typically includes the following components:
Parabolic Dish: The primary reflector that collects and focuses incoming signals.
Feedhorn and Low Noise Block (LNB): Positioned at the dish's focal point to receive signals.
Stepper or Servo Motors: Adjust the azimuth (horizontal) and elevation (vertical) angles of the antenna.
Microcontroller (e.g., Arduino, Raspberry Pi): Processes sensor data and controls the motors.
Potentiometers: Provide feedback on the antenna's current angle positions.
Fault Detection Sensors: Monitor for potential faults such as cable discontinuities or LNB failures.
Control Software: Runs on the microcontroller, handling real-time processing and decision-making.
Real-Time Angle Position Feedback
Real-time feedback on the antenna's angle position is essential for maintaining precise alignment. This feedback is typically provided by potentiometers or rotary encoders, which continuously monitor the azimuth and elevation angles. The microcontroller reads this data and adjusts the motors accordingly to keep the antenna aligned with the signal source.
Fault Tracking in Antenna Alignment Systems
Fault tracking is vital for the reliability and performance of the antenna system. Common faults include cable discontinuities, LNB malfunctions, and motor failures. Sensors integrated into the system can detect these faults and either notify the user or initiate corrective actions automatically.
Design and Implementation
1. Parabolic Dish and Feedhorn
The parabolic dish is designed to reflect incoming signals to a focal point where the feedhorn and LNB are located. The dish's size and shape depend on the specific application and frequency range.
2. Motors and Position Control
Stepper motors or servo motors are used to control the azimuth and elevation of

In today's dynamic and competitive market, a well-rounded skillset is no longer a luxury - it's a necessity.
While technical expertise (hard skills) is crucial for getting your foot in the door, it's the combination of hard and soft skills that propels you towards long-term success and career advancement. ✨
Think of it like this: Imagine a highly skilled carpenter with a masterful understanding of woodworking (hard skills). But if they struggle to communicate effectively with clients, collaborate with builders, or adapt to project changes (soft skills), their true potential remains untapped. 😐
The synergy between hard and soft skills is what creates true value in the workplace. Strong communication allows you to clearly articulate your technical expertise, while problem-solving skills help you navigate complex challenges alongside your team. 💫
By actively developing both sets of skills, you position yourself as a well-rounded professional who can not only perform tasks efficiently but also contribute meaningfully to a collaborative and dynamic work environment.
