Upon earning her MBA in marketing and general management in 2008, she rejoined Deloitte, where she took on some of the largest digital retail transformations in United States and the UK. Ultimately, however, Penmetcha wanted a more hands-on experience. In 2014, she joined HBC, as chief of staff for HBC digital. She took on the role of VP of omnichannel in 2016.

Iyer’s team is also responsible for Albertsons’ automated micro-fulfillment center concept, which will be tested at a store in early 2019. Designed to leverage Albertsons’ existing supply chain and store footprint, it will use artificial intelligence-enabled robots and a system of totes and conveyors to collect items for online grocery orders with the product and deliver to an Albertsons employee, who prepares the order for the customer. The process is expected to take minutes — a fraction of the speed and cost of manual-picking processes.

That year, a war in China shut down the importing of Chinoiseries (think Ming vases) to Europe, sending Europeans into fits of apoplexy. So Dutch artisans stepped up to meet demand, and they’ve been doing a beautiful job of it ever since.

Averill started her professional career in 1999 when, armed with an MBA, she took a position as director of project management at a website development consultancy, moving on to VP of a financial site. In 2003, she joined Nordstrom as VP, selling and marketing systems. She spent a decade there, honing her skills in the demanding and fast-changing world of retail. Among her accomplishments: leading the company’s initiative to deliver store fulfillment capabilities and leading a mobile POS initiative, and integrating Hautelook as a new business model for the retailer.

One of the projects Penmetcha is most proud of is her work on the digital stylist tool available to customers across Saks, Lord & Taylor and Hudson’s Bay. It enables online customers to digitally connect with an in-store associate who can provide personalized, curated assortments to customers through digital tools.

By the way, this will never happen, but I really do think it would be fun if Tebow’s baseball stunt worked and he started smacking 40 dingers a season in the name of the Lord. I don’t think I could possibly enjoy hating an athlete more if that happened. It would be fun!

Lifx has an assortment of smart bulbs, of which the Mini White is the smallest and least expensive. It’s dimmable, has an output of 800 lumens, and uses about 9 watts of electricity. Other Lifx bulbs include the multicolor Mini ($44), and the Mini Day & Dusk ($29), whose white output is tunable, from a cool, bluish light to a warm, reddish white.

Her hair was brown, dark, a little dry. Eyes of a color that I’m simply incapable of remembering, although I haven’t forgotten the weariness in them. Tiny wrinkles curling at the corners, and something not far from scorn lurking there and beside her lips. To be orderly, after describing her eyes I should describe her nose: a little heavy, unlike her mouth, which betrayed solitude and kindness. Her lips were never at rest. Even when she was silent, her lips were twitching.

Promoted to chief digital officer in July 2017, Ganell’s first task was to launch the company’s new loyalty program. Available through Subway’s mobile app, the program features digital coupons and offers. Customers earn $2 for every $50 they spend, and also receive “surprise rewards” based on frequency of visits.

I laughed a little, out of courtesy. In fact, this banter didn’t seem to me particularly funny or clever. I asked her what had happened to her family and what she was doing now—apart, that is, from writing poetry.

By the way, I fully support any bank robber who uses the Danny Ocean method of robbing a bank. This charming rogue just wanted some cash! He didn’t hurt anyone! I say we let him go and then fly with him to the French Riviera. Teach us, sir. Teach us the ways of your daring craft.

No. If you’re jogging, you’re running. The only way it counts as a jog is if you’re wearing leg warmers and it’s the year 1988. We’re past “jogging” now. There is only sprinting, running, and LIGHT running. And even if you’re running way slow, you’re still allowed to wear sweat-wicking shorts, crank up the tunes, and pretend you’re in a Nike ad training montage. If your neighbor has any problem with that, you’re legally allowed to snip his Achilles tendon with a pair of poultry shears. Jogging is dead. NO ONE DENIES THIS.
