Best Of Times, Worst Of Times

... a great fit, especially when you consider Ooma also has built its own bespoke hardware and added to its portfolio over the years. The only downside to voice calling is that there's no money to squeeze out of it and little sizzle.  When I was at  ITEXPO  a couple weeks ago, long-time Vo IP guru and start-up patron Andy Abramson shared a discussion he recently had with a Vo IP cloud provider.   About a decade or so ago, Andy told the company that there was a list of dozens of go-to reporters dedicated to covering the Vo IP space.  Today, publications are interested in the hot trinity of AI, The Internet of Things (Io T), and cybersecurity – not Vo IP or voice. Voice is just another building block, from my perspective.  It needs to work correctly when interwoven with other applications, but there's no “secret sauce” or revolutionary breakthroughs needed for high-quality voice and speech-to-text that feed into natural language processing and voice analytics engines. This isn't to say companies can't make a good living doing cloud PBX services, but voice telephony is a ...

El Paso Native Teases About Her 'voice' Appearance

... mariachi and norteño — were all an influence on her. Ponzio said pursuing a career in music was not easy, but she could count on the support from a growing fan base, which included former "American Idol"  judge and producer Randy Jackson. She met him at an audition. She and her group released an EP, "Only Got Right now" with three songs she wrote that year. One of the songs, "Go Home," is particularly poignant in light of the recent President Donald Trump's deportation rules. The song is titled, "Go Home," about the struggle of an illegal immigrant in El Paso. "He wants to go home, but he can't because it's too dangerous," she said. "It's an appeal to people who may not understand the struggle and desperation of immigrants crossing the border.". She is not the first area singer to land a spot on The Voice. El Pasoan  Elia Esparza  and Mescalero, N. M., resident  Khaliya Kimberlie  both grabbed a spot on the show last September.

Once More, With Feeling

... with threats and harassment, which prompts him and his filmmaking partner to investigate the truth behind this subculture.”. Premieres and finales. The First 48 (A&E, 8 p.m.): If you’re the type of person to find The First 48 to be soothing Monday-night programming, then this special presentation (“Love Hate; A Soldier’s Life”) is just for you. “A young woman goes on the run in Tulsa after her boyfriend’s murder and an army veteran is gunned down in Atlanta after helping a homeless man.” Just another manic Monday.

Supergirl,' 'the Voice' Season Premiere

... 8 ET/PT. The Voice returns with coaches Gwen Stefani, Alicia Keys, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton leading those blind spinning-chair auditions — the show’s best idea and one of the best to ever hit the reality genre. As usual, watch for the chairs and the banter among the judges, which are The Voice’s best assets — even if, combined, they overwhelm and diminish the singers the show is purportedly meant to showcase. Just make sure you flee NBC at 10 ET/PT — because the last thing you should want Monday is to be Taken. Africa's Great Civilizations. PBS, 9 ET/PT (times may vary). Many of us grew up seeing Africa through the lens of Europe’s great colonizing powers, which tended to either romanticize, exploit or — when it served their purposes — dehumanize the continent. PBS and Henry Louis Gates Jr. try to correct that myopic vision with this six-part examination of the civilizations and culture that grew and flourished in Africa over the centuries.

Voice Of The People, Feb. 27, 2017

... address the health problems created by a much larger health issue: tobacco use and its resulting impacts on heart, lung and other diseases. Under Christie, New Jersey no longer devotes any funds received from a landmark court settlement with tobacco companies, diverting millions to the bloated state government budget. Tobacco use kills thousands of New Jerseyans every year. By comparison, heroin and other opioids kill a little over a thousand, a tenth of tobacco fatalities. Opioid addiction is a scourge that must be addressed immediately and forcefully, but to devote no dollars to the fight against tobacco addiction is unconscionable. The Christie administration deserves condemnation for its profligacy. He should devote substantive resources to both fights: the headline-grabbing fight against opioids and the much larger fight ...
