The company offers a variety of digital marketing services with website design being at the forefront. Company founder Anthony Kirlew stated “It was an honor for us to receive the award, especially considering our competition… There are a lot of talented design firms in the Valley”. Infinion Marketing received the award based on a website they designed for East Valley based Lifetime Leather Co, a company that creates custom leather products and has a successfully history of selling through other venues online. Lifetime Leather Co-Founder Ty Bowman could not be happier, stating “when we decided to build our own website, we had no idea what was involved. The team at Infinion Marketing has really helped us understand all of the components that go into making a successful ecommerce website and we were so excited to hear that they had won an award based on the site they built for us.”
The TIM Award (named after Internet pioneer Sir Timothy Berners-Lee) is a peer judged award based on how well an agency implements creativity and industry best practices within a project. Awards are judged to the standard, not against each other in a category, meaning there is no competition between entries but rather the award is given (or not given) based on the how the entry measures up to the standard. AZIMA holds this competition annually and this year’s award ceremony was held at the Phoenix Art Center on March 30th.

Phoenix-based Red Development plans to break ground next week on Block 23, a mixed-use development in downtown Phoenix.
The third phase of the CityScape development will include 330 apartments, 200,000 square feet of office space geared for tech and creative companies, as well as a street-level Fry’s Food Stores supermarket.
It marks the first time a high-rise MXU in downtown has included a grocery store. The project derives its “Block 23” moniker from the original town map from 1885, which was reserved for civic functions.
The development team also includes Dallas-based StreetLights Residential, which is building the apartment component.
The City of Phoenix agreed to provide up to $18.3 million in financing.
Pre-construction excavations have commenced at the asphalt parking site located at 125 E. Washington St. near the Metro light rail line, north of Talking Stick Resort Arena. The project is scheduled to open in early 2019.
Fallbrook, CA-based Tonto Corp. acquired a 151.6-acre land parcel in Mesa, AZ from FR/CAL 3 Mesa Warner LLC for $7.9 million. The seller was a joint-venture entity originally formed by Chicago-based First Industrial Realty Trust Inc. and California State Teachers’ Retirement System (CalSTRS).
Tonto plans to formalize a plan in the coming weeks for a business park on the site that features a quarter-mile of Loop 202 freeway frontage at Warner Road, close by PhxMesa Gateway Airport near intersection with State 24.
Parcels will be offered to end users and developers ranging from 30 to 50 acres.
The all-cash deal involved a site that was previously envisioned for development of a mixed-use business park before the market downturn.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Brian Lee and Kidder Mathews’ L.R. Sanders handled the sale. Merit Partners Inc.’s Kevin Czerwinski served as a consultant to the seller.

Published on Apr 23, 2017 Please note: Explanation of these phenomena inserted below are from another source
Solar flare spewing from mega hole in the Sun could cause blackout mayhem. A gaping hole in the sun's atmosphere has turned toward Earth and is belching 'fast-moving' radioactive particles. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the massive coronal hole on April 21. This coronal hole is a vast region where the Sun’s magnetic field tears apart, allowing solar wind to escape. Super-charged solar winds flowing from the Sun’s atmosphere are expected to reach Earth on April 23 or 24. According to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, this could whip up a “moderately strong” geomagnetic storm. These kinds of storms are behind the beautiful natural phenomenon, the Northern Lights. But a storm of this magnitude could have an effect on power grids and navigation systems across the Earth’s surface.
G2 storms affect plane and military radio systems, spacecraft operations and could trigger voltage alarms or cause equipment damage in power systems. Scientists are growing increasingly concerned over the effect a solar explosion, flare or storm could have on humanity. Our growing dependence on technology puts humans at a greater risk if power grids, planes and satellites stop working. US president Barack Obama was forced to issue a chilling warning to the nation in preparation for devastating space weather storms earlier this year. He said: “Extreme space weather events – those that could significantly degrade critical infrastructure – could disable large portions of the electrical power grid, resulting in cascading failures that would affect key services such as water supply, health care, and transportation."
“Space weather has the potential to simultaneously affect and disrupt health and safety across entire continents.”
The official promo video for 'Another Brick In The Wall, Part 2' by Pink Floyd, taken from the album 'The Wall', originally released in 1979.
One of the most acclaimed concept albums of all time, The Wall is renowned as Roger Waters' Rock Opera dealing with abandonment and personal isolation. Featuring the unique artwork of Gerald Scarfe, the album also yielded the US & UK No. 1 hit Another Brick In The Wall Pt2., and was subsequently adapted for cinema by Alan Parker featuring Bob Geldof in the lead role.
The album was re-mastered in 2011 and Discovery (1CD), Experience (2CD), Immersion (6CD) and vinyl editions are currently available. Go to http://www.whypinkfloyd.com for more details.
Police use of stingray devices to track Americans’ phones: there are at least 471 of the location-spying devices in the U.S. today, according to an exclusive Vocativ survey of known police and other official documents.
The term “stingray” is like “Kleenex” — in that it’s a brand name that became so prominent, it’s used to describe any similar product. The federal government tends to call these devices “cell-site simulators,” and they’re also known as IMSI catchers.[previous posts here on MesaZona]
Here's how Stingray works
Whatever you call them, they share a handful of things in common: They’re illegal for civilians to use; they’re expensive, ranging from some $40,000 to more than half a million dollars if you include accessories; their legality is still being figured out in our court system; and they vacuum up cell phone locations. Strikingly, only a handful of states, including California, Utah, Virginia, and Washington, actually require a warrant for their use, and to date there is no federal law that regulates them.
Depending on the make and model, stingrays may be used just to track cell phone locations, or they may also intercept live phone calls, read outgoing text messages, or scramble nearby cell phone signals. Stingrays vary in size, are often referred to as roughly the size of a suitcase, and are often carted along in either the trunks of police cars or, as is the case with the U.S. Marshals service, flown in planes to search for individual phones. And they’re everywhere. Almost by definition, it’s impossible paint a comprehensive look at stingrays in the U.S. That’s largely due to the fact that, as the FBI has testified in an affidavit, the devices came with nondisclosure agreements and police departments and agencies often promise the FBI to never admit they have such devices. According to a 2014 memo uncovered by the investigative journalism nonprofit Oklahoma Watch, the FBI has instructed local police to use stingrays for “LEAD PURPOSES ONLY,” and states that they “may not be used as primary evidence in any affidavits, hearings or trials.” “The big concern with stingrays is we still don’t know exactly how they’re used and where they’re used,”Jennifer Lynch, an attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation who specializes in privacy and civil liberties, told Vocativ.That secrecy means it’s impossible for the public to know, at the moment, exactly how many stingrays are out there.
But thanks to law enforcement purchase orders unveiled by Freedom of Information Act requests from the ACLU,FOIA journalism nonprofit MuckRock, and the Center for Human Rights and Privacy, as well as news reports from investigative reports at local news outlets around the country, Vocativ compiled all known stingray purchase orders across the country. The result is that state, county, and local police departments have acquired, between 2001 and 2015, a minimum of 124 stingrays (Additional stingrays are owned by federal agencies, more on that later). We’ve made the raw data available here.
The Florida-based Harris corporation, which creates the vast majority of known law enforcement stingrays, trademarked its original StingRay device in 2003. But it wasn’t until after the 2007 or 2008 release of the StingRay II, which included a GPS antennae to upgrade its phone location tracking, that the devices began really spreading across the country. More information how these networks work [about 30 minutes]
There’s little doubt that the number of stingrays is only going to increase. Thanks to a major report ordered by the House Oversight Committee and released in December, the public now has insight into how many stingrays have been purchased by federal agencies. In total, there were 347, with the FBI purchasing 194 between 2011 and 2014 alone. Members of Congress who want to create a set of federal rules to guide how police use stingrays have cited that study, and introduced a bill twice in the past two years to regulate the devices. So far, though, there’s been little interest in Congress, despite stingrays’ potential constitutional problems. “The way that stingrays operate is they collect information about every phone that is in range of the stingray, and that’s a huge privacy invasion,” Lynch, the EFF lawyer, said. “The 4th Amendment to the Constitution protects all of us in the U.S. against unlawful searches and seizures and requires a warrant. This is definitely a search of cellphone info.”
