Out Now: Velvet Code’s Dreamer (AMG | Sony Music Entertainment)

Inspiring. Uplifting. Celebratory. The music of Velvet Code is electropop born of deep emotion and a longing for human connection. Dreamer is the second full-length studio album by Velvet Code and it was forged during a time of personal tragedy and deep personal loss. Velvet Code's Dreamer (AMG | Sony Music Entertainment) album is out now.

"Break The Silence" is the first single off the Dreamer album. The song is an earworm that burrows its way into the listener's mind upon first spin. Velvet Code's buoyant vocals bounce deftly above his expert synthesizer riffs and driving electropop rhythm. Originally released in Canada in September 2018, "Break The Silence" has achieved more than 1.5 million streams across digital platforms including Spotify, YouTube and Apple Music. "Break The Silence" aims to remove some of the stigma surrounding issues of mental health and the song was inspired by Velvet Code's own experiences battling anxiety.

"Mary Offered Ladybugs and Love Yous" is the second single off the Dreamer album and that song is currently charting at #27 on Billboard. Originally released in Canada in February 2019, "Mary Offered Ladybugs and Love Yous" is another strong effort from Velvet Code. This song evokes Robert Miles' "Children" on the intro with its haunting acoustic piano. Immediately, Velvet Code's anguished vocals seize the listener with an urgency impossible to ignore. The production gradually builds until the song erupts in a triumphant-sounding chorus. "Mary Offered Ladybugs and Love Yous" illustrates Velvet Code's skill at crafting catchy hooks and the irresistible electropop production cuts through the airwaves to the core of music lovers' hearts. Dreamer is a collection of nine original songs dedicated to Velvet Code's late-father and it gathers stories from Velvet Code's own life experiences. Though the recording of the album was heavily influenced by a period of emotional turmoil, the album's goal is ultimately to lift and inspire all who hear it and remind people that there's always positivity and light if we seek it.

Apcela Included in Gartner's May 2019 Market Guide for Managed SD-WAN

Apcela, the cloud application acceleration provider, announced today that it was named a non-NSP managed SD-WAN provider in Gartner's May 2019 Market Guide for Managed SD-WAN Services.

"Enterprise demands for greater agility, higher performance and network expense optimization continue to grow," according to Gartner. "Enterprises struggling to balance expense reduction with greater WAN agility and performance are increasingly turning to managed SD-WAN services." As a result, the Guide states that managed SD-WAN services are forecast to grow in-line at a compound annual growth rate of 84.7% (2017 to 2022).

While the market is growing, non-NSP entrants are challenging legacy NSP providers. According to Gartner, "Non-NSP managed SD-WAN service providers are disrupting the traditionally NSP-centric sourcing model for managed WAN services." One of the reasons for that disruption is the non-NSP's ability to enable transport-provider neutrality. "In these instances, enterprises may retain market-based choice, giving them greater agility to change WAN transport providers, while still maintaining operations continuity and SPOC support separate from NSP transport agreements."

"We are proud that Gartner recognized our innovative solution for SD-WAN services," said Mark Casey, CEO of Apcela. "The enterprise need to simplify network infrastructure, while increasing agility in a hybrid IT cloud environment is fast becoming one of the primary challenges facing organizations. Apcela's solution enables enterprises to transform their network and application delivery model creating a foundation for speed, application performance, and ultimately business success."

Apcela's application hubs or AppHUBs coupled with its high-performance, low-latency network backbone creates the framework for Apcela's global, SD-WAN overlay platform service. With zero-touch, endpoint provisioning, Apcela supports a broad range of SD-WAN configurations customized to support the unique challenges of the enterprise.

About Apcela
Apcela enables enterprises to easily manage application performance in hybrid IT environments. Its global, award-winning platform – originally built for the world's most sophisticated high-frequency trading firms – securely accelerates applications and data between legacy enterprise datacenters and the cloud. Managing distributed application performance and security is simplified with the company's software-defined networking and fully integrated, distributed security service.

BreathVet Eliminates and Prevents Bad Breath for Dogs 24 Hours

A new product created by SmartMouth Veterinary Labs stops bad breath in dogs for up to 24 hours without brushing. BreathVet is a water additive that uses zinc ion technology to eliminate doggy breath, fight plaque and tartar on teeth and promote healthy canine oral care.

BreathVet's power comes from the dual activation of zinc ions. Just like in humans, volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) are the true cause of bad breath. VSCs are released when the natural bacteria in a dog's mouth consume protein left behind on teeth, gums and the tongue. It's this sulfur gas that causes bad breath, irritates tissue and can lead to problems like bleeding gums and gingivitis.

"Bad breath is a problem for millions of people, and also for dogs," says Andrew Burch, CEO of SmartMouth Veterinary Labs. "The process is the same, germs in the mouth eat protein and produce sulfur gas as waste. The only way to truly eliminate and prevent those bad breath sulfur gases is with BreathVet's patented zinc ion activation technology that has been specially formulated for dogs. By simply adding a small amount of BreathVet to your dog's water each day, you're helping to keep a healthy mouth, while bringing back the love between you and your best friend."

Safe and effective for dogs, BreathVet features patented zinc ion technology and is 100 percent safe when used as directed. Simply fill a water bowl and add the amount of BreathVet directed on the bottle, and dogs will get the benefits of clean, fresh breath as they drink water throughout the day, without having to brush their teeth.

BreathVet is available now on Amazon. To learn more, visit https://breathvet.com

About SmartMouth Veterinary Labs
SmartMouth Veterinary Labs manufactures and markets BreathVet 24 Hour Dog Breath Solution. Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, SmartMouth Veterinary Labs and SmartMouth Oral Health Laboratories have been working to eliminate and prevent bad breath since 1993. Read this here.

The Emotional Evolution of Chatbots -- 10Pearls Included in Gartner Report

The emotional evolution of chatbots/virtual assistants is here thanks to the continuous research and adoption of this emerging technology. 10Pearls has conducted in-depth research on this topic to conclude that empathy trumps accuracy, as it related to human preferences for chatbots and virtual assistants. More info here.

Gartner, the world's leading research and advisory company, included the research in its April 2019 report, "Governance and Best Practices for Chatbot Development" (access requires Gartner subscription). The report states, "Whether it is too many vendors — or poorly defined narrow solutions — building, deploying and maintaining successful chatbots is fraught with problems. Application leaders should use governance and best practices for chatbot development to guide both long-term deployments and short-term investments." Gartner's report lists five recommendations for "application leaders involved in AI governance issues."

The 10Pearls' study brought in a diverse group of individuals to interact with four virtual assistants: Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, SoundHound's Hound, and Apple's Siri. Prompts were given to participants, who then had to develop a question or command to say to the assistant to facilitate a conversation. Measurement of emotional responses of participants during this dialogue provided key insights, as shown in the attached graphic from 10Pearls' research.

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/common-workplace-items-may-be-hazardous.html

The primary finding of the study was that empathy matters, and the most accurate tools are not the most preferred. Alexa was the least accurate, but the most favored by participants. When asked why, participants had comments such as "She seemed nicer," and "It feels like I am interacting with a person."

Gartner recommends that "application leaders involved in AI governance issues incorporate tone, emotion, personality and other soft features into your chatbot solutions by acquiring linguistics skills."

"Not all Chatbots are created equal. It's the degree of humanity that sets them apart," said Imran Aftab, CEO of 10Pearls. "This research shows that adoption of emerging tech is reliant on the overall human experience, and not just accuracy."

Recognizing the importance of empathy, Microsoft recently announced a new conversational engine that will integrate with the Cortana virtual assistant and enable new capabilities and advanced interactions. The new Cortana should be able to better understand human conversation and react accordingly.

10Pearls cutting-edge research is focused on providing businesses with key insights that can be leveraged to digitally transform successfully -- leading to the best outcomes and experiences for customers.

10Pearls has been cited in previous Gartner reports, such as the May 2018 Market Guide for AI-Related Consulting and SI Services for Intelligent Automation. For more information, visit 10pearls.com

Aptris Helps Local School—Hopes More Businesses Will Follow Example

Aptris announces today that, along with its sister company Ticomix, Harlem School District 122 has awarded it with honorable recognition for its contribution to Loves Park Elementary School. Aptris "adopted" the school in 2015 with a commitment to supplying critical needs for at-risk students through employee-driven gifts and sponsorship.

Read related news here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/intouch-insight-launches-liacx-new.html

Loves Park Elementary is located just two blocks from Aptris' corporate headquarters on North 2nd Street. Aptris' involvement with the school began when they adopted four families in 2015 and employees purchased gifts for them for Christmas. They have since expanded to 12 families as of 2018.

Other activities have included snack drives, a shoe drive and, most recently, a personal hygiene drive.

"There are two things about this that have been incredible to me," said Tim Ancona, Aptris CEO. "One is the engagement of our employees. We're not just writing a check from the corporate account and calling it a day. This is grassroots involvement on the part of every team member. The second incredible thing is the impact such a relatively small amount of effort can make."

More info here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/keywordfirst-rebrands-as-true.html

Lisa Clark, Loves Park Elementary School principal, says that impact has been significant. "It's not an exaggeration to say that these contributions have been life changing for the students and their families," Lisa said. "There's just no other way to describe when you see, for example, a child receive the first pair of new shoes they've ever owned and it brings tears to their eyes."

Ancona recently put out a challenge on social media encouraging other businesses to do likewise. He asks, "What if each business took on the task of supporting one local school in an effort to give kids living in poverty a sense of hope and a sense of being valued? This isn't hard and while one business or one employee can't change the world, one business and a group of caring employees can change one school." Read news here.
