ROCK HILL, SC (WBTV) - When you're sick you go to the doctor what people don't realize is their pets need a yearly check up just like they do.
Dr, Jay Hreiz at Ebenezer Animal Hospital in Rock Hill says in the past few years while the economy has been down, so has the number of clients bringing in their pets for checkups.
"We understand the economy has hit everybody hard but we still think that annual pet care is extremely important," said Hreiz.
A Bayer Veterinary Care study last year found that 24 percent of pet owners agreed that routine checkups for their animals are unnecessary.
The same study showed 33 percent of dog owners and 41 percent of cat owners agreed that if their pet did not need to be vaccinated every year.
Though Hreiz has seen a decline of pet checkups yet he's seen a rise elsewhere.
"We've seen a large rise in emergency care where people have waited too long, and something that's going on with their pet and let it simmer awhile and we see them here on a life threatening basis," said Hreiz.
Which he says can make a vet bill even higher.
"The cost of preventative care is so much less for what it costs when something goes wrong down the road," said Hreiz. "Just like if you ignore an ear infection in your own child, eventually that's going to turn into a much bigger problem down the road."
Hreiz says most vet offices like his are willing to work with clients financially.
"We're not here to rip you off we're here to help your pet and make them healthy," said Hreiz.

Thousands of people ran from Omaha to Lincoln today in the annual Market to Market Relay.
It's a day–long team relay race that starts in Omaha's Old Market and finishes in the Haymarket. Teams of 6 to 8 people ran various distances over the 78-mile long course.
Runners came from across the country to do it and many say this relay is more about the experience than the actual running.
"I mean it's a great experience," Amy Scarmon said. "We had tons of fun. It's really more about spending time with your friends and hanging out and the experience."
Courtney Miller came from Chicago to run in the relay. This is her fifth time running it with her friends.
"It feels awesome," Miller said. "Yeah it feels good. It feels like we accomplished something as a team and it was really fun to do."
The race ended near Haymarket Park.
There was plenty of food, drinks and music for the runners to celebrate crossing the finish line.

About Us
In 1986, the Town of Gilbert made a commitment to reuse 100% of its effluent water. The Town's desire to create innovative and unique ways to combine water resource development with open space, educational and recreational opportunities led to the development of the Riparian Preserve. Of the 110 acres, 70 acres make up the 7 water recharge basins that are filled on a rotating basis with treated effluent and allowed to percolate into the aquifer where it is stored for future use. One of the ponds has a unique distribution stream that mimics the action of an ephemeral desert stream. An additional lake is filled with reclaimed water, and is designated as an urban fishing resource through the Arizona Game and Fish Department.
The Preserve is organized into various vegetative zones ranging from marshlands to native riparian and upland vegetation areas. Well over 150 species of birds have been identified on the site, and many insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals have found homes there as well. Over 4.5 miles of trails weave through the park, and there are interpretive education panels on wildlife and vegetation throughout. Viewing blinds have been established at various locations near the edge of several ponds to further enhance the visitor's experience. A floating boardwalk crossing the northern end of the lake allows visitors a close up view of the fish and ducks on the water. Additional educational areas include an ethnobotanical garden, a paleontology dig site, an archaeological dig site, a weather station, a scale model solar system, state-of-the-art observatory and a hilltop outdoor classroom. The preserve also includes restroom facilities, picnic ramadas, and a play area.
The Riparian Preserve is one part of the property known as Water Ranch, which extends from Greenfield Road east to Higley Road, encompassing the majority of the land between Guadalupe Road and the utility easement. Water Ranch includes the Southeast Regional Library building, the Salt River Project Eastern Canal, and the Town of Gilbert Drinking Water Treatment Plant, Fire Station, and Nichols Park.

- Riparian Preserve Rules
The Gilbert Rotary Centennial Observatory (GRCO) is the latest addition to the Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch. The facility is available for a variety of public programs, offering an educational opportunity unique to the Valley.
Future Education Center
The Riparian Institute plans to build an Education Center that will offer a focal point for every visitor to the preserve. It will provide a source of learning and experience for people of all ages. The Center will be located just east of the intersection of Greenfield and Guadalupe Roads in the Town of Gilbert.

At the beginning of this school year, districts all across the nation had to make major changes to the types of food they serve in school lunches. It is the first time in 15 years that the standards for student meals have been updated.
In 2010 President Obama signed the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act into law, which is just taking effect now. It put into place a new set of USDA requirements for school lunches, making them healthier, more varied, and in some cases, smaller.
So for the first day of National School Lunch Week, we take a look at exactly what WCSD students have been eating, before and after the changes.
Kids voluntarily eating fresh fruits and vegetables, and actually choosing a salad for lunch, is a sight that might be hard for a lot of parents to believe. But that is the picture at public school all across the Silver State this year.
"A child eating broccoli is not mission impossible," Nevada Department of Education Nutrition Specialist Catrina Peters said.
But a few years ago, that might have seemed impossible. Back then, school lunches were higher in starches, contained more sugar, more fat, and featured fruits and vegetables from a can.
Now, the iconic plastic trays hold fresh broccoli, spinach salad, whole fruits, and whole grains. A lunch now has to have at least one cup each of fruits and vegetables, half of the grains must be whole grains, and schools can only offer a grain-based dessert once or twice a week.
"A lot the menu items are still staying roughly the same," Peters said. "We are just increasing the number of fruits and vegetables, and maybe making the portion sizes a little more appropriate for that age group."
That means little changes, like corn dogs are now turkey corn dogs, and macaroni and cheese is made with whole wheat pasta.
But the changes aren't going over smoothly everywhere. Students at a New Jersey high school organized a protest over the new menu, saying the lunches are too small. One group of students even made a satirical video showing kids collapsing from hunger while playing sports.
In Washoe County though, opposition has been hard to find. That's partly because the school district started making these changes a few years ago, even before it was required. And it's a change administrators said was badly needed, with a significant percentage of our students above the recommended weight.
"To have one third of our student population at what is considered obese," WCSD Director of Nutrition Services Tony Cook said, "that is a pretty significant issue."
But things are changing. Now, when you watch the lunch line at Hidden Valley Elementary School, where more than half of the kids get hot lunch every day, you see kids who have embraced the new foods.
In fact, Washoe County students eat about 3,000 salads every day. That is 3,000 more than they were eating three years ago.
"These changes may seem simple," Peters said, "but they're really going to lead to huge benefits down the road."
Washoe County School District is putting on some special events and programs as part of National School Lunch Week.. For a list of those, and to check out the new menu for the school district, click here.

The Best-April 2014
Review submitted: May 19, 2014 Date of arrival: April 5, 2014
Our stay here was amazing. Everything from howler monkey's, zip lining in San Juan Del Sur and hiking to Gigante. The house, views, weather and accommodations exceeded our expectations. The house Mgr. Wadolfo was also exceptional. He was amazing. He took care of anything we needed from food to entertainment. I highly recommend this house for your next adventure. You'll love it!!

Absolutely relaxing, gorgeous, friendly, and monke
Review submitted: March 13, 2013 Date of arrival: January 30, 2013
First of all, we had the best vacation our family has ever had! It was absolutely relaxing, gorgeous, friendly, and monkey-filled! We just did nothing but swim in both pool and beach. Sit on beach. Sit on porch. Eat fruit and tacos. Sleep. Sit on beach. Play in waves. Eat more fruit and tacos. Sit some more in hammock. Watch the monkeys. Drink coffee on terrace every morning to watch the sun rise. We brought no electronics or cameras. We just relaxed together. It was absolutely heaven. And although we didn't venture further than Gigante and the ride from and to the airport, we were fascinated by the country and very impressed with the grace and warmth of the people. For instance there was more resort bungalows being constructed directly across the street from us, with workers arriving every morning at 8, but we never heard a raised voice, or saw anything but men steadily, quietly, working. And what beautiful constructions. Yes, every morning we reiterated our new dream: to have a little place or our own down there! So, once more, we thank you so much for your kindness!

Visit to Redondo beach area Nicargua
Review submitted: March 21, 2012 Date of arrival: March 11, 2012
The house was great, the view was evening better. The house has plenty of room and an open design that lends well accomodating large families. Our group was an individual family of five with the youngest child of year 10 years of age and the oldest child of 18. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck next to the pool in the mornings watching families of howler monkeys eat on the leaves in the trees right next to the deck. We spent a lot of time at Aqua Resort which is right across the street and down the hill next to the beach. The food and service at the resort was excellent.The kids enjoyed boogie boarding on the nice beach. It was not very busy so we shared the private beach with only a few others. We made a day trip to the Masaya Volcano which was awesome.

A great Thanksgiving!
Review submitted: November 29, 2011 Date of arrival: November 20, 2011
Our group of 7 (four adults, three children ages 5, 8, and 11) stayed at this beautiful home during the week of Thanksgiving. All of the pictures and information on the website are accurate - the house is very comfortable and the views are spectacular. We had plenty of room in the house. We actually saw many, many monkeys every single day as we were lounging around the pool at the house - families of them would come eat twice a day and then linger in the trees for about an hour - it was amazing.
The beach at Redonda Bay is much better and more gorgeous than we had imagined. It was fairly secluded with gentle waves much of the time. The Aqua Wellness resort built treehouses above Redonda Bay along with a restaurant and bar on the beach (American prices, for the most part, but very convenient). There were very few people at the beach but comfortable chairs all around for anyone to relax in.
We arranged for transportation to and from the airport through the house manager, who was very pleasant and accommodating, and spoke perfect English. The house is very secluded and definately not near a city. You can walk to Gigante in about 20 minutes and there are several restaurants there (Nicaraguan prices - extremely reasonable). Be prepared to wait for a very long time for your food - but this is not a bad thing, as it is all fresh and handmade, right down to the tortillas and chips and salsa. Other than that, it is about a 45 minute drive to Rivas to even get to the grocery store, so we recommend either stopping on the way from the airport and getting groceries or sending the house manager a list of things you would like in the house upon your arrival. (this worked well for us).
Ultimately, we were very happy to be in such a secluded and gorgeous setting. We did manage to plan some trips - we took a boat ride and spent the day in San Juan del Sur, visited Rivas one day, and finally visisted both Granada and Masaya another day. After our side excursions, we were happy to be back at Redonda Bay away from it all. If we had to plan our trip over again, we would stay in this house over another location in Nicaragua.
We highly recommend this home and location - the owner was extremely pleasant to work with from start to finish and the entire reservation process to the logistics of our stay was very organized.

Nice Home nestled on a cliff within a quiet and calm development
Review submitted: January 12, 2011 Date of arrival: January 2, 2011
Beautiful home and surrounding area. We loved the playful monkeys that played in the trees just right outside the home! The owner was very helpful and responsive. The beach was gorgeous and the pool was very nice. We ate at the resturaunt near the beach. The food was not great and was a little expensive. We did take a boat trip to San Juan del Sur at the owner's suggestion and it was lovely. We were picked up right on the beach and saw amazing views along the way. I would recommend staying at this home. I would suggest that you have a car with you. We did not and were pretty much stuck at the house or beach. Nothing was close enough in our opinion to walk to. Only down fall for me, is that it is a bit secluded for my taste and doesn't have much of a nightlife. There are also steep hills to and from beach which we didn't care for but we got some exercise!

Perfect Vacation
Review submitted: October 21, 2009 Date of arrival: October 9, 2009
Great property. Fantastic views, nice private pool. Nice to be right next to the beach. Particularly enjoyed the views of the Pacific and the Costa Rica Coastline. Sunsets were amazing! Sleeping to the surf sounds was relaxing. Nearby golf was fabulous. Only drawback was we were not able to stay longer.

Surfer's Paradise
Review submitted: May 5, 2009 Date of arrival: March 11, 2009
Our group was all surfers and rented for 10 days. The house is absolutely stunning, and the views were much better than the pictures on the website. While we spent most of our time in the water surfing, the close proximity to the Colorado Pipeline made everything really convenient. The management was attentive and we also liked having our own private pool to relax by at the end of the day.

super vacation
Review submitted: March 12, 2009 Date of arrival: March 3, 2009
I stayed in this house with a group of friends in early March. It is truly a magnificent view and a wonderfully comfortable house. In addition to the view and accomodations inside, on the opposite side of the street is a very large beach area where we enjoyed a series of beautiful sunsets at the end of each day. Security around the development is very good and all people we encoutered in the complex were very friendly.
For those who enjoy nature, the howler monkeys and a variety of birds visit regularly.
The only negative is the long ride over some challenging roads from Managua.

Clinical trials are experiments designed and executed by researchers, called investigators, to test new drugs, therapies and devices on human participants before they are submitted for approval to the FDA or marketed and sold for use by general patient populations.
Before they are conducted with humans, they are tested with laboratory animals like mice or rats. When they seem to improve either the diagnostic process or the status of the animals' health, and are deemed to be safe for those animals, then the testing moves to humans through development of clinical trials.
If you are considering participation in a clinical trial, there are a number of steps you'll want to take to be sure you will benefit from the trial, and the clinical trial will benefit from your participation.
- Be sure to understand exactly what a clinical trial is, and how they are conducted. There are several different types of trials, and four different phases of trials in which you might participate.
- Identify a clinical trial which will benefit you, and which will benefit from your participation. (see below)
- Determine whether you are eligible to participate in the clinical trial you have identified by reading a description of the participants the investigators are looking for. Criteria for participation may be medical or social, and may include any or all of the following: age, gender, race, diagnosis, the type and stage of a disease, previous treatment history, other medical conditions (comorbidity), location or others. Any of these criteria may be used to include or exclude a participant.
- Understand the risks and benefits of participation in a clinical trial, and specifically the trial in which you are interested. Not all trials result in good outcomes, but many do. There may be some good reasons for you to participate, and there may be some detriments of which you'll need to be aware.
- Meet with your trial's investigators to ask questions about your intended trial. The questions will help you weigh the risks and benefits of participation both in terms of the trial itself, and how it will affect your daily life, and your life in the long term.
From understanding possible outcomes, both positive and negative, to knowing how much it will cost, whether you'll need to be hospitalized, and how far you might have to travel, be sure you understand the answers to the questions before you give your consent to participate.
- Be informed before you give consent to participate in the trial.
Where to Find a Clinical Trial In Which You Can Participate
Clinical trials take place across the globe. The following websites can provide you with listings of current and future trials:
- From the US Government and National Institutes of Health
- From the World Health Organization
- From CenterWatch (This site includes a notification service.)
- Cancer trials from the National Cancer Institute

Price Paid: $37 at REI online
As a stove I would give this a 3, but as a torch, which it is, it is perfect. If you only wish to heat water, and be able to light a campfire in a rain forest, this is a must have tool. It will adapt to two kinds of tanks but in the normal state it weighs 5.8 ounces. You may burn 2 ounces of propane butane getting a fire lit, but you could almost get seaweed lit with it. However it will boil 10 ounces of water in a minute flat holding the pan over it in a gloved hand.

We knew from the start that the all new Camaro was a hot car. That is, a hot car needing more sinister looking taillights. We drew from our experience with classic car taillights and produced a feature-filled, LED taillight set for the new Camaro that is without equal.
Our taillight kit includes a replacement LED taillight for all four of the stock lamps, plug-and-play wiring, and an installation that requires no electrical knowledge, no splicing, no cutting, and only 30 minutes of time. Our lamps feature a dark red lens much like the RS factory tail lamp optional lens color.
The features of the Technostalgia Camaro LED taillights have to be seen. Once installed, youll be the one thats seen with the 176 bright LEDs on the back of your car. Our lights include the following show-stopping features:
RapidFire Brake Light Each time the brake pedal is pressed, the brake lights flash three times in rapid succession followed by constant on. This feature is sure to wake up all the distracted drivers following your Camaro.
AfterBurner taillight The taillight mode includes all 20 primary LEDs lit but dimmed and 24 more LEDs arranged around the lower ¾ perimeter of each lamp.
Sequential Turn Signals - When using the turn signals, the inner lights fire off before the outer.
User Selectivity Both the Sequential turn signals and the RapidFire brake lights may be turned-on or off, individually by the end user.
Show-Off Mode Lets admit it. You paid a bunch of money for your new Camaro and have outfitted it with Technostalgia LED taillights

text: The Michael Vick thread got me to wondering, what does the future hold at QB for Carolina? Will Jake Delhomme prove timeless like Brett Favre, or, just to show you how much I know ; ), George Blanda? Will Josh McCown step up and prove to be more than a journey man QB? Will Matt Moore prove his 07 performance wasn't a fluke and become the next great Carolina QB? Or will our future stud come from the draft. Jevan Snead, Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, Tim Hiller, Dan Lefavour, or, dare I hope, Sam Bradford? Or will we sign a veteran free agent to come in somewhat like Delhomme and lead us? Opinions please, my bet is either on Matt Moore, or a trade up for Jevan Snead.

The above UK-based European Practitioners have today filed comments at the USPTO arguing that the USPTO's Myriad-Mayo Guidance is inconsistent with the provisions of Article 27 of the TRIPs Agreement.
They argue that the ruling of Justice Thomas in Myriad is TRIPs-compliant only on the narrow holding that mere isolation of a DNA sequence unaccompanied by new, improved or extended utility does not give rise to eligibility. Any broader interpretation of the ruling e.g. to exclude natural products selected or isolated by the hand of man and possessing new or improved utility would be inconsistent with the express provisions of the Agreement. It will be recollected that Justice Ginsburg during oral argument in Myriad was concerned that the US was at risk of adopting a rule quite different from that of other industrialised nations and would be placing itself in an isolated position. Only the suggested interpretation, they argue, would avoid those concerns, and they submit that the Court had these considerations in mind when it handed down its limited and cautious opinion in Myriad.

For a guy who never attended Colby, Paul Paganucci of Hanover, N.H., has been an incredibly loyal supporter of the College. A Waterville native and a Colby trustee since 1975, he and his wife, Marilyn, endowed scholarships to Colby for graduates of their high schools, Waterville and Deering in Portland respectively, in 1988. This January they announced the establishment of the Paul and Marilyn Paganucci Chair in Italian Language and Literature at Colby.
He explained his fondness for the College as the result of growing up in its shadow. "I guess it was having relatives who went there, growing up on Gilman Street with professors in every fourth or fifth house and going to school with their children, who set a fast pace in the Waterville schools. It's just always been part of my life," he said.
Paganucci called the decision to endow a faculty position in Italian "a bit ironic," insofar as, despite his surname, he developed a love for Italian culture only in recent decades. He is the grandson of four foreign-born grandparents, only one of them Italian.
Paganucci graduated from Waterville High School in 1949, then attended Dartmouth College. After earning an M.B.A. degree from the Amos Tuck School of Business and a J.D. degree from Harvard Law School, Paganucci had a distinguished career, or rather several distinguished careers, with W.R. Grace & Co. and as a founding partner in a Wall Street investment firm, as a professor, dean and vice president of finance at Dartmouth, and as founding chairman in 1991 of the Ledyard National Bank, headquartered in Hanover, N.H.
President Bill Cotter praised the Paganuccis' $1.2-million gift to establish the faculty position. "The College is reintroducing Italian, and the interest has been so great that classes are overenrolled, so the gift of the Paganucci chair comes at the perfect time," he said. A search is on to fill the position for the 2000-01 school year.
Paganucci has led the trustees' Investment Committee most of the 21 years that Cotter has presided at Colby. "Paul deserves much of the credit for the successful performance of the endowment and its diversification into new investment vehicles," Cotter said, citing a more than 12-fold increase in the endowment's value since 1979. "In addition, he has been the conscience of the board, emphasizing long-run priorities-growth of the endowment foremost among them." ?

What does everybody love? M&M and a recipe for a Friday afternoon, of course!
What does everybody love? M&M. Money and Macaroni
Especially saving money. And thanks to reforms enacted last year, North Carolinians will be doing just that. Saving money means more money in your pocketbook to spend as you want.
As a matter of fact, taxpayers in every income category will save tens of millions of dollars because of state tax reforms enacted in North Carolina in 2013.
Combining 2013 reforms with a 2011 sales-tax rate reduction pushed by the Republican-led General Assembly and signed by Governor McCrory, lower- and middle-income households will enjoy annual savings of $682 million.
Wow! Who doesn't love saving money?
Especially Macaroni and Cheese. Try this one:
Mac and Cheese
Kosher salt
Vegetable oil
1 pound elbow macaroni or cavatappi
1 quart milk
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
12 ounces Gruyere, grated (4 cups)
8 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated (2 cups)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 pound fresh tomatoes (4 small)
1 1/2 cups fresh white bread crumbs (5 slices, crusts removed)
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Drizzle oil into a large pot of boiling salted water. Add the macaroni and cook according to the directions on the package, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.
Meanwhile, heat the milk in a small saucepan, but don't boil it. Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a large (4-quart) pot and add the flour. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring with a whisk. While whisking, add the hot milk and cook for a minute or two more, until thickened and smooth. Off the heat, add the Gruyere, Cheddar, 1 tablespoon salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the cooked macaroni and stir well. Pour into a 3-quart baking dish.
Slice the tomatoes and arrange on top. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, combine them with the fresh bread crumbs, and sprinkle on the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the macaroni is browned on the top.
Yield:6 to 8 servings

So the Monday Night Game at Ford Field went off without a hitch. I think our Organization showed alot of class by accommodating the Vikings the way we did. Although, I did think the "Viking Horn" was a little bit too much.
As gracious as we were, I don't think the Vikings were Guests that I would Invite back, (till wk 17). I hope that The Vikings are able to play their next game Vs the Bears in their home state. In the outdoor stadium that The Gophers use. But if not, I say we speed up the process and just have them play their Monday Night game in LA, They can play in the Rose Bowl.
I found this Video of Ragnar, Screaming at Lions fans to Sit Down, after the Giants scored on them. What a Douche! You can also hear the fans BOOOing everytime the Horn Sounds. Check it out.
There is also some good Cheerleader Footage, Never before seen on the SideLines at Ford Field.

Photo: Savages
Mexican actor Demian Bichir on Friday made a stout defense of films as an art that reflects the times, a good example being his latest film, "Savages," Oliver Stone's take on the world of drug trafficking.
The 48-year-old performer told Efe in an interview that movies like "Savages," to premiere in the United States on July 6, "put the finger in the wound of what the problem of drug trafficking really means."
The adaptation of Don Winslow's 2010 novel "Savages" portrays with raw credibility the clash between two young Americans who grow marijuana and a fictional Mexican cartel known for its savagery.
The film may well offend the sensibilities of some moviegoers but will undoubtedly attract "millions of people waiting to see a new work by director Oliver Stone," Bichir, nominated for an Oscar as Best Actor for the film "A Better Life," said.
"All through history men have lived in tragic times, very harsh, bloody times," and film is here to tell the story, said Bichir, son of an actress and a stage director and the brother of actors.
In "Savages" Bichir plays Alex, the lawyer of Baja cartel boss Elena, portrayed by Salma Hayek.
The cast also includes John Travolta and Benicio del Toro.

The price of gasoline is going up in Elko County.
The Elko County Commission voted 4-1 on Wednesday to increase the local gas tax by 2.5 cents to a total of 9 cents per gallon. That's the maximum county gas tax allowed under state law.
Elko Mayor Chris Johnson was among those to speak in favor of the increase due to the need for revenue for road construction and repair.
Commissioner Demar Dahl cast the lone "no" vote.
Towns and cities in Elko County also will receive a share of the money.
County officials say it will take a few months to implement the increase.

PLM: How to enable long term retention of you product data?May 29, 2009
Do you remember how a 5-inch floppy disk looks? And how to use it? It doesn't seem like so long ago that we used this floppy quite widely. But, as you can see, we have moved forward, and it's very interesting how we can enable fast ROI for PLM, how to make a quick implementation, updates online, etc. But at the same time, in my opinion, there are problems that exist today and are also related to long processes. The problem is how to keep my product data for a long period of time. I think that this problem will become more urgent over the next 2-3 years. There are two main reasons for this: Data around us is growing very fast. Most of today's PLM implementations (even if they are 3-5 years long) are still located on corporate "spinning disks". As storage is becoming cheaper, this problem is getting pushed to a longer queue, since you can increase your operational storage and postpone the problem to a few years from now.
Most of the discussions related to long term data retention were around CAD formats. Indeed, this is an important topic, but I think that the problem is not limited to data formats, and much wider in scope. I have separate issues on four topics and will analyze the options I see possible for solving these problems.
1. Physical Storage
This is probably not a very "PLM-related" problem. How do you physically keep data? Most of today's examples I've seen use a CD/DVD combination to store data. I'm not so sure if this is so good. The main problem is that by copying data onto a DVD, we are removing data. This is really bad. The biggest value of data being able to use it – by putting your data on a DVD, your data will die. The new development of cloud data centers shows a big promise for solving this problem. I think that companies using cloud data centers will benefit from long data retention and therefore resolve the physical storage problem.
2. Data Models
This one is tricky. Product data is quite complex and not sequential. If you backup your mail, the only model you need is a calendar. You can retrieve any data back using your calendar model – sender(s)/year/month/date. This is all you need to know when you want to retrieve your mail. This is not true with product data. Product data has many dependencies that are very complex and span across timelines related to multiple products etc. So, this is a big problem, in my opinion. Even today I cannot say that a data model is stable for most PDM/PLM implementations. It becomes even less stable over a long period of time. The most advanced development in this field is based on the STEP format, but I still consider this issue very challenging.
3. Data Formats
Most of today's discussions about long data retention are about formats or CAD formats. When we discuss mainly 3D, one of the first questions we ask is how to store our 3D (and non-3D) graphical models for the long-term. Lifecycle of CAD packages is too short. I think most of today's implementations are focused on 2D and print storages. There is no silver bullet today, in my view. 3D PDF is promising. Private formats (even if they pretend to be according to industry standards and acceptance, such as JT) can solve the problem only partially. Combining a good data model and data format may work. But more promising is granular data storage – this will let us keep the underlining model behind 3D and 2D data.
4. Logical Access
This is a complex term for the simple word "search". I don't want to oversimplify, but maybe I'm wrong. At the end of the day, I may need to find data that I saved 30 years ago and examine or reuse it for a particular reason. You can call this simply "searching", but we need to bring new ideas to this issue – about how to logically retrieve relevant data in the context of a specific problem/issue/task.
And one more thing… There is a certain promise in environment virtualization usage for long term data retention. You can keep your data and your applications together with you computer systems – and you can use a virtual environment to bring your old systems to life. I don't know why, but this option always reminds me of sci-fi films when humans were frozen and un-frozen after 100-200 years…. Imagine that you start your MS-DOS now to read your document in Word Perfect.
And this topic probably is not be complete if I don't mention the aging workforce. Not only do we need to keep product data over a long period of time, but we also need to keep data in order for tomorrow's users "to use data" rather than "decode" data – there's a big difference.
So, to sum up: I don't think we have a fundamental solution for this problem. I've heard about a few programs such as LOTAR, development done by PDES. Inc; The Siemens announcement of JT approval for long term retention program, and more (sorry if I left something out).
I'd be glad to discuss if you have had experience in this field and what's your opinion on how to solve this fundamental issue.
Options to Streamline PLM Collaboration: Microsoft vs. GoogleMay 28, 2009
After starting a massive Excel discussion last week and continuing this week, I got a lot of comments that I was too Microsoft-oriented. And, folks in Redmond, I love you, but we need to check whether or not this is blind love. I will not talk much about the Microsoft option. I think that Microsoft has a major market presence (I think some people commented on my Excel article they have seen about 90% of users are using Excel for BOM management). Excel is very popular, but becomes messy over time.
What are the alternatives to multiple MS Excel attachments that create one big mixed BOM salad on our tables? One of the possible ways is to move online. This is really nice! Think about being able to keep your BOM tables online (actually, I discussed cloud options last month – Host PLM Data using Cloud Services , Should PLM take Excel to the Cloud?). And this is time I also was thinking about Office online alternatives, and came up with Google Apps. I polled your Google Apps opinion last week in PLM Prompt Should PLM think about Google Apps? You also need to check what was result of Kate's Cloud Watching, but I've seen definite interest in this.
So, the main idea is to be able to co-edit document information (spreadsheets, in our case) online. This simplifies the editing process of potential Bill of Materials and allows many participants to edit/view them at the same time. As this is an advantage, where is the drawback? For Excel, one of the big disadvantages of PLM Spreadsheets is how to connect it to multiple data sources – design, manufacturing etc. This is still a problem in my view. One interesting possibility is the connection as demonstrated by Google Apps and Salesforce.com. Another option is to move forward with cloud applications, but these seem still to be in their infancy.
Google Docs in Plain English
Google Apps and Salesforce.com
I can see that collaboration in the future with Google Apps has a nice potential, but what is going on with the parallel Microsoft option? There are two main options for organizing my big Bill of Materials salad created in MS Excel. One is to move it to MS SharePoint. This is a really beautiful option. The combination of MS SharePoint Lists and MS Excel interoperability works fine. You can almost seamlessly move an Excel to SharePoint List and populate an Excel View based on a MOSS Web Part – or just export a MOSS list to Excel. There are practical things you can do tomorrow with MOSS 2007, and this is a real benefit vs. Google Apps, since it don't have the grace of leveraging all MS Excel install bases for this purpose. But at the same time, Google Apps is really a leader in providing online collaboration with Gmail and Google Docs. Even if Microsoft is proposing to host MS SharePoint, I think this is still far from a real production for manufacturing organizations.
SharePoint online
Combination of SharePoint and Unified Communication also can bring additional benefits. I wrote about this back to SolidWorks World. SharePoint Social Platform capability for SolidWorks
And to be fair enough, discussing all online collaboration option, I think I have to mention Arena Solutions option. This company has already been providing online Bill of Materials collaboration for many years. Although I don't know if Arena is Excel-friendly, I had a chance to read a few white papers explaining Arena's benefits vs. MS Excel. Based on what I read, I think this is a more competing rather than coexisting offering.
So, I think there are pros and cons on how to streamline collaboration. I'm looking forward to discussing this with you, as usual.
What will be the future potential cost saving with PLM 2.0?May 27, 2009
Web 2.0 and following 2.0 technologies came to us a few years ago (around 2003 and 2004) and changed the way people interact with the Web. Web 2.0 created a massive wave of 2.0 and social technologies (including Enterprise 2.0) and changed the way people work in many areas in our lives. Back in 2008, PLM companies such as DS and PTC introduced new offerings (PLM 2.0 and Social Product Development) based on concepts of Web 2.0 and social development. I'd like to discuss the various aspects where future PLM 2.0 technologies can impact what we are doing today in and around PLM.
One of the important characteristics of the future PLM 2.0 is the potential cost saving factor for enterprises. Usage of Web 2.0 has changed the way enterprises work. Here are my potential cost saving factors for companies implementing future PLM 2.0 technologies:
1. Optimize communication, reduce email, streamline processes
Social tools and the internet can simplify communication. People are more connected and easily communicating. Open social communication reduces the need for email and simplifies processes. Collaboration will be easy. You will easily be able to find relevant people to communicate to inside and outside the organization. Companies will reduce online storages (i.e. for mails) and will move gradually to cloud-based services.
2. Improve information transparency
Product data and related information will become more available. You will be able to easy share information outside of the engineering organization, collaborating with people downstream – in manufacturing and sales – as well as with people in the value chain. Social tools such as wikis, blogs and others will establish a more transparent layer of information sharing.
3. Reduce IT costs
There are two main sources of IT cost reduction. First of all, PLM 2.0 rely more on internet and other social resources that have a much lower cost compared to dedicated corporate IT expenses. Secondly, the ability to share resources (corporate and public clouds) will bring additional IT savings.
4. Reduce integration costs
Usage of Internet technologies will lower the cost of integration. The use of open Web-based technologies will streamline the ability to integrate data and systems across the enterprise and value chain. You can use Mashup and other Web tools to manipulate, mix, and share data among people and applications.
5. Reduce printing services
Development of various connectivity and information share options will decrease the need for printing services. This will happen in organizations as a result of the wider availability of information outside of an organization – in the sales and supply chains. Wide usage of internet and mobile devices will reduce the need for paper materials.
6. Change trend in software cost
Last, but not least. The leverage of Internet, Web 2.0 and other 2.0 technologies brings a stream of new providers to the PLM eco-system. These providers are less dependent on legacy, on-premise product offering and maintenance revenue streams. These companies will be more dynamic and will drive the software cost trend down. Many companies will be leveraging this new trend.
I think that the future of PLM 2.0 is good, but still very challenging. We have seen dramatic changes in Web 2.0 and changes that the following technologies made in our life and on social communication. I'm sure that PLM 2.0 has a great potential and am looking forward to your opinions and discussions.
PLM Excel Spreadsheets: From Odes to WoesMay 26, 2009
Although, I love my PLM Spreadsheets, it is a sort-of "Love and Hate" relationship. Since it's so easy to start with Excel, we always do…, but what is the price of this easy move? So, I decided to follow-up my love letter to Excel with some "hate" statements.
1. It becomes complex within time. You always start with something simple to do. A few columns; simple formulas. But life adds additional parameters, and data to manage…. and then you can hardly manage it at all. You don't remember all your excel dependencies. The Copy/Paste you loved in the beginning is no longer an easy task…
2. You cannot change it easily. At the beginning of your Excel story, it seems so easy to change. You can send it to any person, add information, delete, manage reports, etc. But as time goes by, nobody remembers the really good relationships you built in Excel. To touch data in Excel becomes so complex! I've seen many organizations who have an "Excel Manager" duty. These people are called "mission critical Excels".
3. Data is not only in Excel. Your PLM life is not in Excel only. A lot of information exists in CAD, Designs, ERP, or in additional legacy applications. In my view, Excel is a very bad integration tool. You cannot easily point to information residing in other systems. But to manage these relationships, it's really important to have the right data in your hands when you need it.
4. Where is my latest Excel? I'm sure you have asked this question many times. Is it the one connected to your mail? Is it the one on your laptop, or is it the one in SharePoint? When you have multiple Excels, and especially if you have multiple versions of these Excels, you will really be lost…
5. Hidden cost of dependencies. In the beginning of the Excel journey, it so easy to send an Excel file to your colleagues. You just attach it to your mail and you it's delivered. But as soon as your Excel becomes complex such as being connected to other data sources or linked to other Excels, you cannot encapsulate it so easy. So, sometimes sending it via email isn't so trivial.
What should I do next? I still really like my PLM Excel, but before building my PLM system on Excel grounds, I would like to try to find ways to avoid these hidden Excel problems. How should I do this? Keeping it simple is a good recommendation in theory, but not always easy an easy task to put into practice. I will think about a few recommendations and possible solutions, and will come back to you in future posts. I'll record the recommendations in an Excel sheet before posting them here. Or maybe not….Stay tuned…
Why Do I Like My PLM Excel Spreadsheet?May 25, 2009
I think I will not surprise you with the statement: "the biggest market share in PDM/PLM belongs to Microsoft Excel". If you disagree, please let me know. So, I wanted to share some thoughts about why I think that Excel is beneficial for PLM…
Below are the top five reasons why I prefer working in Excel to manage my product data and product lifecycle:
- Simple. Simple means simple. The idea is simple – one big table. You don't need training. You can start right now. You realize that "simple is not as simple as you think" as your spreadsheet grows – but until you get there, you are a happy user :).
- Flexible. To plan how to manage product data and lifecycle in your organization, you need to spend time and effort. But if your tools are on a white board and flexible to the level of "one size fit all", you can start right now. The flexibility of Excel allows you to grow as you go. You don't need to have models – just put your data and search it afterwards.
- Absorb any type of data. Often I'd like to be able to introduce a new type of data. MS Excel is there to help you with this. You can easily create a new workbook, worksheet, add columns, delete columns, etc. The beauty of a spreadsheet is that it is all-inclusive J… when you think about vendor-related stuff…
- I physically own it. This is true. If you have xls(x) files, you don't need to be concerned with how to save, copy, and transfer your data. The feeling of ownership of your work is very important and people appreciate it.
- Transferable. This is comes with files. I can send them to anybody. I can control how the files are saved and maintained. So, I can transfer them inside and outside of the organization to facilitate collaboration.
…and one more -
- SharePoint friendly. My story nowadays is not complete without saying a few words about working together with Office files and SharePoint. SharePoint provides a new way to manage Office (Excel) files – Excel services and almost transparent conversion between SharePoint lists and Excels. Office Excel files and data are well organized and the content is easy to find.
The bottom line is that Excel spreadsheets have a lot of value in context of what we are doing in PDM/PLM. I'd love to discuss this with you.

Look on this blog post -3D Warehouse from Google. Does it make sense in context of what CAD/PLM vendors are doing?
Top Five Disappointing PLM TechnologiesMay 22, 2009
Once in a while, industries, companies, or developers come up with something that they think will change the technological and product landscape. PLM is no exception in this lineup of excitements and disappointments. Here are five technologies, that disappointed me in the CAD/CAE/PDM/PLM world listed from least to most disappointing):
#5 – 3D Search
The CAD and PLM industries probably developed the most advanced capabilities to create 3D models, design products and everything around us. But they are pretty unsuccessful at being able to find them, once designed.
#4 – Viewers
One of the top requirements of PDM since the early days is the ability to view what designed without running a CAD system used to design a specific product. So, I'd expect that viewers should be a commodity. But, unfortunately, this is not happened and the ability to view products/models continues to be a challenge for an organization
#3 – CAD Interoperability
The inability of CAD vendors to agree on how to exchange models continues to affect people in the industry. You can see people spending their entire lives translating files from one CAD to another. You can still find "translation departments" in organizations. Quite a large amount of companies in our industry still focuses primarily on interoperability. So far, it looks like this problem will be still with us for awhile…
#2 – PDM/PLM to ERP Integrations
When I look at the problem of integrating PDM (and later PLM) with the ERP environment, I see that the same list of unresolved problems has remained for at least the last ten years. New PDM, PLM and ERP systems have been developed, technologies for EAI, middleware, programming languages have changed, but the problem of how to integrate PDM/PLM with ERP in a robust way still faces us.
#1 – PLM Standards
This is my 'favorite' disappointment. Standards are like toothbrushes. Everybody needs them, but nobody wants to use those of somebody else. There is some correlation between this problem and CAD interoperability. There are a few more/less stable standards – STEP, IGES. But this space continues to disappoint me with the lack of an approach that can change the status quo of "yet another standard development" adopted by one or two vendors only.
So far, this is my perspective on my disappointments. At the same time, I see each topic in my list as both a challenge and opportunity. And I'm looking forward to an interesting (rather than disappointing) discussion…

One state lawmaker proposes new regulations which could affect your ability to get some quick cash when you need it.
KSFY News spoke with some lenders who want to take a wait and see approach before commenting on the pending legislation.
But one short term lender who grew up in Sioux Falls had a lot to say about how this could affect his business.
Promises of easy money are everywhere on the streets of Sioux Falls. And state representative Steve Hickey wants to change that.
"It's the wild west, other states have a lot more parameters and regulation and right now we have people with 400, 600, 800, 900 percent interest. They borrow $200 and owe $2,000 in a short amount of time," Hickey said.Sometimes people just need a little extra cash to make ends meet.
And Dollar Loan Center CEO Chuck Brennan said comparing an annual interest rate to his type of loans is like comparing apples to oranges."These are very short term loans. For example, if somebody needed $200 for a week, it's going to cost them about $14 dollars. That's far less than any bad check fee or any late on the rent fee or any fee of any sort," Brennan said.Hickey plans to introduce a bill during the 2014 legislative session to regulate short term loans. "We're going to try to bring some regulation to a really unregulated industry, which is a move in the right direction, which is short of a rate cap which would kick them out of the state which was my initial approach," Hickey said.But if Hickey's bill passes with an interest rate restriction, Brennan believes it could bring an end to a quick line of cash."The entire industry shuts down. We would close our doors immediately that day. Five hundred people would be out of work, and everybody, all of our tens of thousands of customers wouldn't have a place to turn when they needed cash," Brennan said.
Brennan said he offers a service to people who need quick cash but can't get the same type of loan from a bank.
KSFY News will follow up with Hickey to find out what new regulations he proposes for short term lenders in our state.

LA CROSSE, Wisconsin (WXOW) - Christmas Eve is a time when many families gather to celebrate the holiday together.
News 19 asked Rev. Meredith McGrath at Good Shepherd Lutheran for her definition of the true meaning of Christmas.
McGrath said it comes down to infection joy and an overflowing sense of generosity.
"Just a generosity beyond reason," McGrath said. "You know, not in the sense of giving so you end up in debt and doing things that way, but just a generosity that come from a deep place within."

*NOTE* Added 20 teams, extra points, 2 keepers for next year - 2 Jerseys will be given out just like last year. In the event that I should win, the jerseys go to the next 2 people in line. Your choice of a Dan Marino or Larry Csonka!
If we get 20 people, I will throw in extra consolation prizes (All Dolphins stuff!)
First off, let me start by saying that last season was fun & I still owe someone a jersey. I was out of the country most of the year & the email that I was using from work, I had to get a new one because I was "cut" from that job. Will you kindly send me your address to my new email, firstname.lastname@example.com, & you will have your 'Greatest Players Of The Century" Dan Marino jersey, in time for the season opener! Im sorry, had a couple of un-expected deaths in my family & was in Sicily.
Ok, now since that issue is out of the way, I would like to get an early start this year. Also, would like and appreciate the people that join, to actually try and play this year! Some didnt last year, and it was understandable because of the late start & our losing season, but these are for REAL jerseys, not Chinese, Korean, or where ever, cheap bootlegs that only last maybe 2-3 washes, lol.
Question: Do we keep the same league as last year? Can we add teams to the league from last year? I would like to have a good league, again not only because the jerseys arent cheap, but I would like to have fun playing in it also.
What is the max amount of teams we can have & still be a competitive, fun, but also challenging league? I do not know much about Fantasy Football, being I signed up every year here but never made the cut, and last season was my first year playing it. Obviously, I will need help running it & setting up the points system! I would like to have the extra points for long TD's, long receptions, long runs, etc; Here are some things I know I liked. Also, would purchase a paid league if needed (I honestly dont know).
- ESPN's fantasy football league was more fun than NFL.coms'
- This is a "questionair" type of thread, so we can figure out what to get.
- I am open to all suggestions!
- Let's have a fun year with the league this year, enjoy winning a jersey just for playing Fantasy Football!
Also, to show my dedication for this site as a whole, I am donating a jersey to The Phinsider's fantasy league winner, so if you made the cut, you can win a jersey!
Thanks Again & Thanks in Advance to anyone who joins and/or offers to help!
Your Fellow Fin Fan,
Emmett Dove
1'st place - choice of Dan Marino or Larry Csonka - Throwback "Players Of The Cenury" Jersey.
2'nd Place - same as above
3'rd - 5'th - Miami Dolphins items, Ranging from "frezzer cups" to signs, keychains, etc. Will have a list up before the last week.
all other places - will recieve a keychain at the end of the season!
