Today's Story Highlights

Federal Agencies Warming Up to Big Data
It just makes too much sense. Big government can function much better if
government agencies take advantage of the benefits of big data
technologies. Given the perception that governments operate on a bias
favoring the status quo, it may come as a surprise that U.S. government
agencies are slowly but surely embracing the adoption of big data
innovations.

E-Commerce Firms Need to Wise Up to Cybercrime
Every business owner and executive must think long and hard about
cybersecurity -- especially considering all the break-ins and data
thefts during the last several years. Data breaches and security issues
are in the headlines on a regular basis. One good source for getting a
grip on some possible solutions to the problem is AT&T's new report,
"What Every CEO Needs to Know About Cybersecurity."

Uber Rushes In as Same-Day Deliveries Ramp Up
Uber on Wednesday made its UberRush merchant delivery service a full-
fledged division of the company, officially rolling it out in New York
City, Chicago and San Francisco. The announcement followed a soft launch
earlier this year in NYC. Americans waste too much time and productivity
by transporting things from one point to another, Uber reasoned.

A7 Patent Suit Loss Could Cost Apple $862M
A U.S. District Court jury earlier this week found that Apple's A7
processor infringes a patent held by the Wisconsin Alumni Research
Foundation, the patent management arm of the University of Wisconsin --
Madison. WARF alleged patent infringement and claimed damages of up to
$862 million in a complaint filed early last year in the U.S. District
Court for the Western District of Wisconsin.
