July 4th, this coming Saturday, marks the unofficial mid-point of the year. People are working hard to get things back to normal as shown by plans to restart baseball and basketball.

Welcome to June and almost official summer (June 20th). Happy Birthday to CNN, an idea everyone considered crazy at the time. Who wants to watch the news all day every day?

Sabine Howest (pictured) now heads up Ingram’s ongoing efforts to help partners build Internet of Things practices. The new center of excellence will support that project by providing access to subject matter experts, labs, demo facilities, and more.
