PUBMATIC, PUBLICIS MEDIA KICK-OFF TARGETED PRIVATE MARKETPLACE FOR THE WORLD CUP

SINGAPORE, May 30 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PubMatic, the publisher-focused sell-side platform (SSP) for an open digital media future, announced the launch of an exclusive Targeted Private Marketplace (PMP) with Publicis Media. The self-service tool will create high-quality PMP deals at scale for marketers, based on unique sports audience segments across PubMatic’s premium Asia and global publishers. The exclusivity of this partnership will initially be available in Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand and the Philippines, with plans to expand to additional markets in the region.
 
The timing of this deal coincides with the World Cup in Russia, the biggest global sporting event of the year. Like the Olympics, the World Cup generates a frenzy of marketing activity, as brands - both official sponsors and more opportunistic ones - compete for share of mind and wallet. As a leading agency group, Publicis Media’s 2018 focus is to increase premium quality inventory. PubMatic’s Targeted PMP solution offers heavily curated, premium site lists based on marketers’ needs.
 
“While programmatic private marketplaces offer greater assurances of better quality inventory, they still need to improve to gain the confidence of advertisers and planners alike.  Whether it is more reliable pacing and delivery or greater scale when combining inventory and data, there is still a bit of a way to go. At Publicis Media, we are excited to partner with PubMatic around the World Cup to provide the best inventory and data solution to all Publicis Media brands,” said Jonathan Mackenzie, Managing Director, Publicis Media Asia Pacific.
 
Janet Leung, Director of Product, Publicis Media Asia Pacific, added, “The World Cup and PubMatic’s new offering provide an opportunity to further expand our Precision Marketplace solutions to include data-informed inventory. In this partnership, exclusive data are only available through Precision. This opportunity offers both contextually relevant sites and exclusive access to data which allows our advertisers to place their ads in front of the most relevant audience.”
 
Targeted PMPs address some of the limitations of traditional PMPs. Targeting audience segments via traditional PMP can limit scale and requires additional time to negotiate with multiple publishers. Further, it can be difficult to effectively pre-plan a PMP campaign due to restricted visibility into audience reach and impression, and deal troubleshooting can be a concern. Targeted PMPs solve for these challenges by providing advertisers with higher transparency and more efficient workflows, and consistently performing PMP deals across multiple publishers. This, in turn, can drive higher ROI for marketers.
 
“As brand spend increasingly shifts to programmatic, we have seen buyers like Publicis Media demand more sophisticated PMPs with increased capabilities without having to choose between quality or scale. PubMatic created Targeted PMPs to address these buyer pain points and evolve the PMP landscape. We’re excited about this exclusive launch partnership with Publicis Media” explained Jason Barnes, CRO APAC at PubMatic.

THIS IS WHY HUOBI IS A LEADER GLOBAL BLOCKCHAIN ASSET PROVIDER

SINGAPORE, May 28 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- No matter where you go, you hear about cryptos. All media have adopted this buzzword, in an online publication, ads, and news sites. However, are crypto buyers still early adopters?

Crypto is indeed at its early stage, and for all of those approaching the world of cryptocurrencies, a frequent question is: which is the best platform to start trading? But being objective giving a clear distinction between platforms around the web, it might be a difficult task.

In this article, we present Huobi a platform that stands out for its well-achieved interconnectivity and interface. Initiated in 2013, it is one of the best alternatives in cyberspace when it comes to crypto exchange.

Huobi Super Rebate Program.

The new benefit that Huobi has implemented is its system of discounts, where each user of the cryptocurrencies can receive a commission by generating their own invitation link and invite new users to register in the currency.
 
How to get started with referrals?

1- First you must enter the tab that says invitation, which is in the upper right corner of the website. Search for "My invitation code" and click to enter.

2- To obtain the invitation code, you can register and invite new users in two ways: first you must send your code to your guest and, while he registers, complete the registration to obtain the invitation code.

Or you can also send the invitation link through social networks, when both are registered through that link, the system will complete the following registration by giving you the invitation code.

3- In "Invite", click on "Registration of the invitation" to see if the registration of the invited user is successful. You can only see the result if it is recorded correctly.

4- After verifying the successful registration of your guest, the platform will calculate the amount of rebate of the transaction and the transfer of the user account the next day. The commission will be issued in the form of USDT and on a points card.

In short, when inviting a new user to trade with cryptocurrencies in Huobi, and the latter makes a transaction within 90 days, the inviter will receive 30% of the total commission.

Why Choose Huobi? 

A platform like Huobi makes very easy to get started into crypto guiding you step-by-step in what to do and what don’t. If you are a newbie in the exchange of digital currencies, Huobi gives you the key to achieve the desired success. Besides, Huobi has a new intelligent contract platform: EOS. The Enterprise Operation System is based on the blockchain and aims to implement a blockchain architecture similar to an operating system that supports distributed applications. This architecture can provide accounts, identity authentication, database, asynchronous communications and programming of programs and parallel operations in tens of thousands of CPU / GPU clusters.

WORLD'S WORST PASSENGERS 2018

AsiaNet 73687

Perth, Australia May 24, 2018/Medianet International-AsiaNet/-

Smelly passengers and out of control children have emerged as the leading complaints of passengers in the annual www.Airlineratings.com "Passengers from Hell" survey.

Airlineratings.com, the global airline safety and product ratings website, surveyed its readers on 10 passenger types who they felt caused the most grief on planes.

Respondents were asked to rank passenger types 1 to 10 from the most irritating to the least.

According to AirlineRatings.com Editor-in-Chief Geoffrey Thomas, the level of frustration for the smelly passenger reflects a decline in hygiene standards.

"There has been a significant shift in passengers' gripes about their fellow travelers, who are either not conscious of their odor or don’t care,"said Mr Thomas.

"With online or cell phone check-in now widespread, offending passengers are slipping through the traditional checks and only coming into contact with airline agents at the boarding gate. The agents, under pressure to get the flight away, let offenders slip through."

On runaway kids, Mr Thomas said that "many parents think that the other 300 passengers on board are babysitters."

The top two survey results also reflect the editor's choice for the most annoying passengers.

Passengers who recline their seat, for a long time the most irritating passenger type, were ranked third.

The passenger who hogs the armrest came in fourth, a reflection of the ever-decreasing amount of space on planes and the increasing size of passengers. Passenger etiquette dictates that the passenger in the middle seat gets both armrests.

The increasing amount of carry-on baggage was fifth on the list.

Carry-on baggage has become a major problem, particularly in the US, where many airlines charge for checked-in baggage.

On most standard single-aisle aircraft there is not enough overhead baggage space to accommodate all the carry-on baggage.

The cramped conditions in economy catapulted the passenger with the weak bladder into the sixth position.

In seventh were the chatterbox and eighth passengers who did exercises in the aisle.

In ninth position was the arrogant and demanding passenger who insists on being served before anyone else and is constantly annoying the flight attendants, who are usually run off their feet.

Finishing in 10th place was the window hogger, who pulls at the window shade for the entire flight.

AsiaNet 73627
 
CHONGQING, China, May 21, 2018 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--
 
An OS-X rocket named "Chongqing Liangjiang Star" saw its maiden flight finish at 7:33 am on May 17 in a test field in Northwest China.
  
The launch of the "Chongqing Liangjiang Star" rocket, developed by OneSpace Technology, a Beijing-based private firm, marks the first time a non-state Chinese rocket has successfully entered orbit. The rocket is nine meters long and weighs 7,200 kilograms. It has a maximum altitude of 38.742 kilometers and a top speed of more than 5.7 times the speed of sound during its maiden flight which covered 273 kilometers and lasted 306 seconds.
  
The flight not only tested the X-series rockets' functions, but also completed certain scientific research tasks, such as verifying drag reduction and heat reduction of pneumatic struts, which will help provide technical support for future product design. It also helped verify certain test conditions like maximum height (40 km) and Mach number (4-6). The success of the flight, meanwhile, proved the effectiveness of cooperation between higher-education institutions and companies, according to Shu Chang, founder and CEO of OneSpace.
 
The OS-X rockets are flight carrying platforms specifically designed for aerospace technologies test. They help fill the gap in China's aviation test industry and will promote practices and applications of advanced aerospace technologies.

INVIVOSCRIBE RELEASES THE LYMPHOTRACK DX TRB ASSAY AS CE-MARKED IVD KIT, COMPLETING THE NGS CLONALITY SUITE FOR THE MISEQ PLATFORM

SAN DIEGO, May 16 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivoscribe Technologies Inc., a global company with decades of experience providing clonality and biomarker test solutions for the fields of oncology and personalized molecular medicine, today announced the release of the LymphoTrack® Dx TRB Assay for the Illumina® MiSeq® platform, a CE-marked next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay kit for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use. Invivoscribe is the only company offering a complete suite of CE-marked NGS clonality assays designed to assess clonality for both diagnostic and tracking purposes. The LymphoTrack Dx TRB Assay for the ThermoFisher Scientific® Ion PGM™ and Ion S5™ instruments will be released later this year.

Leukemias and lymphomas generally originate from the malignant transformation of individual lymphoid cells, causing the vast majority of lymphoid malignancies to share one or more cell-specific or “clonal” rearrangements. The LymphoTrack Dx TRB assay identifies clonal TRB Vβ-(Dβ-)Jβ rearrangement sequences, and the accompanying LymphoTrack Dx bioinformatics software provides a clear summary of the frequency distribution. These clonal sequences can be used to monitor minimal residual disease (MRD) in longitudinal studies, which track the disease as well as the effectiveness of therapies aimed towards their eradication.
