The next BriefingsDirect case study interview explores how improved visibility analytics and predictive responses are improving supply-chain management. We'll now learn how SAP's Supplier InfoNet, coupled with the Ariba Network, allows for new levels of transparency in predictive analytics that reduce risk in supplier relationships.

BriefingsDirect had an opportunity to uncover more about about how the intelligent supply chain is evolving at the recent 2014 Ariba LIVE Conference in Las Vegas when we spoke to David Charpie, Vice President of Supplier InfoNet at SAP, and Sundar Kamakshisundaram, Senior Director of Solutions Marketing at Ariba, an SAP company. The discussion is moderated by me, Dana Gardner, Principal Analyst at Interarbor Solutions.
Here are some excerpts:
Gardner: We've brought two things together here, SAP's Supplier InfoNet and Ariba Network. What is it about these two that gives us the ability to analyze or predict, and therefore reduce, risk?
Charpie: To be able to predict and understand risk, you have to have two major components together. One of them is actually understanding this multi-tiered supply chain. Who is doing business with whom, all the way down the line, from the customer to the raw material in a manufacturing sense? To do that you need to be able to bring together a very large graph, if you will, of how all these companies are inter-linked.
And that is ultimately what the Ariba Network brings to bear. With over 1.5 million companies that are inter-linked and transacting with each other, we can really see what those supply chains look like.
The second piece of it is to bring together, as Sundar talked about, lots of information of all kinds to be able to understand what's happening at any point within that map. The kinds of information you need to understand are sometimes as simple as who is the company, what do they make, where are they located, what kind of political, geopolitical issues are they dealing with?
The more complex issues are things around precisely what exact product are they making with what kind of requirements, in terms of performance, and how they're actually doing that on a customer-by-customer basis. What we find is that suppliers don't behave the same for everybody.
So InfoNet and the network have come together to bring those two perspectives, all the data about how companies perform and what they are about with this interconnectedness of how companies work with each other. That really brings us to the full breadth of being able to address this issue about risk.
Gardner: Sundar, we have a depth of transactional history. We have data, we have relationships, and now we're applying that to how supply chains actually behave and operate. How does this translate into actual information? How does the data go from your systems to someone who is trying to manage their business process?
Kamakshisundaram: A very good question. If you take a step back and understand the different data points you need to analyze to predict risk, they fall into two different buckets. The first bucket is around the financial metrics that you typically get from any of the big content providers you have in place. We can understand how the supplier is performing, based on current data, and exactly what they're doing financially, if they're a public company.
The second aspect, through the help of Ariba Network or Supplier InfoNet, is the ability to understand the operational and the transactional relationship a supplier has in place to predict how the supplier is going to behave six-to-eight months from now.
For example, you may be a large retailer or a consumer packaged goods (CPG) organization, maybe working with a very large trucking company. This particular trucking company may be doing really well and they may have great historical financial information, which basically puts them in a very good shape.
Financial viability
But if only one-third of the business is from retail and CPG and the remaining two-thirds comes from some of the challenging industries, all of a sudden, operational and financial viability of the transportation supply chain may not look good. Though the carrier's historical financials may be in good shape, you can't really predict how the supplier is going to have working capital management in terms of cash available for them to run the business and maintain the operation in a sustainable manner.
How does Ariba, Ariba Network, and InfoNet help? By taking all the information across this multitude of variables, not only in a financial metrics, but also the operational metrics, and modeling the supply chain.
You don't limit yourself with the first tier or second tier, but go all the way to the multi-tier supply chain and also the interactions that some of these suppliers may have with their customers. It will help you understand whether this particular supplier will be able to supply the right product and get you the right product to your docks at the right time.
Without having this inter-correlation of network data well laid out in a multi-tier supply chain, it would have been almost impossible to predict what is going to happen in this particular supply-chain example.
Gardner: What sort of trends or competitive pressures are making companies seek better ways to identify, acquire, or manage information and data to have a better handle on their supply chains?
Kamakshisundaram: The pressures are multifaceted. To start with, many organizations are faced with globalization pressure. Finding the right suppliers who can actually supply both the product and service at the right time is a second challenge. And the third challenge many companies grapple with right now is the ability to balance savings and cost reductions with risk mitigation.
These two opposing variables have to be in check in order to drive sustainable savings from the bottom line. These challenges, coupled with the supply-chain disruptions, are making it difficult not only to find suppliers, but also to get the right product at the right time.
Gardner: When we talk about risk in a supply-chain environment what are we really talking about? Risk can be a number of things in a number of different directions.
Many variables
Kamakshisundaram: Risk, at a very high level, is composed of many different variables. Many of us understand that risk is a function of, number one, the supply. If you don't have the right supplier, if you don't have the right product at the right time, you have risk.
And, there is the complexity involved in finding the suppliers to address needs in different parts of the world. You may have a supplier in North America, but if you really want to expand your market share in the Far East, especially in China, you need to have the right supply chain to do that.
Companies traditionally have looked at historical information to predict risk. And this is no longer enough because more and more, supply chains are becoming complex. Supply chains are affected by the number of globalized variables including the ability to have suppliers in different parts of the world, and also other challenges which will make risk more difficult to predict in the long run.
Gardner: Where do you see the pressures to change or improve how supply-chain issues are dealt with, and how do you also define the risks that are something to avoid in supply-chain management?
Charpie: When we think about risk we're really thinking about it from two dimensions. One of them is environmental risk. That is, what are all the factors outside of the company that are impacting performance?
That can be as varied as wars, on one hand, right down to natural disasters and other political types of events that can also cause them to be disrupted in terms of managing their supply base and keeping the kind of cost structure they are looking for.
The other kind are more inherent operational types of risks. These are the things like on-time performance risk, as Sundar was referring to. What do we have in terms of quality? What do we have in terms of product and deliverables, and do they meet the needs of the customer?
As we look at these two kinds of risks, we've seen increasing amounts of disruption, because we're in a time where the supply chains are getting much longer, leaner, and more complex to manage. As a result of that, you're seeing that over 40 percent of interruptions right now are caused by interruptions in the supply chain downstream, tiers two, tier three, all the way to tier N.
So now we need a different way of managing suppliers than we had in the past. Just working with them and talking to them about how they do things and what they do isn't enough. We need to understand how they're actually managing their suppliers, and so on, down the line.
Predicting risk
Gardner: So, David, it sounds to me as algorithmic or as if a score card is there to generate this analysis. Is that the right way to look at this, or is it just making the data available for other people to reach conclusions that then allows them to reduce their risk?
Charpie: There absolutely is an algorithmic component to this. In fact, what we do in Supplier InfoNet and with the Ariba Network is to run machine-learning models. These are models that behave more like the human brain than like some of the statistical math we learned when we were back in high school and college.
What it looks for is patterns of behavior, and as Sundar said, we're looking at how a company has performed in the past with all of their customers. How is that changing? What other variables are changing at the same time or what kinds of events are going on that may be influencing them?
We talked about environmental risk a bit ago. We capture information from about 160,000 newswire sources on a daily basis and, on an automated basis, are able to extract what that article is about, who it's about, and what the impact on supply chain could be.
By integrating that with the transactional history of the Ariba Network and by integrating that with all the linkage on who does business with whom, we can start to see a pattern of behavior. That pattern of behavior can then help us understand what's likely to happen moving forward.
To make it a little more concrete, let's take Sundar's example of a company having financial trouble. If I take a company, for example, under $100 million, what we have found is that if we see a company that begins to deliver late, within three months of that begins to have quality problems, and within two months or less begins to have cash-flow problems and can't pay their bills on time, we may be seeing the beginning of a company that's about to have a financial disaster.
Interestingly, what we find is for the pattern that really means something, after those three events. If they begin paying their bills on time all of a sudden, that's the worst indicator there possibly could be. It's very counterintuitive, but the models tell us that when that happens, we're on the verge of someone who will go bankrupt within two to three months of that time frame.
Delivery model
Gardner: Now I can see why this wasn't something readily available until fairly recently. We needed to have a cloud infrastructure delivery model. We needed to have the data available and accessible. And then we needed to have a big data capability to drive real-time analysis across multiple tiers on a global scale.
So here we are, Ariba LIVE 2014. What are we going to hear when can people start to actually use this? Where are we on the timeline for delivery in this really compelling value?
Kamakshisundaram: Both Supplier InfoNet and Ariba Network are available today for customers, so that they can continue to leverage these solutions. With the help of SAP's innovation team, we're planning to bring in additional solutions that not only help customers look at real-time risk modeling, but also more of predicted analytical capability show.
Charpie: In terms of the business benefits in what we are offering, the features that really bring to life this notion of integrating the Ariba Network with InfoNet are, first and foremost, an ability to push alerts to our customers on a proactive basis to let them know when something is happening within their supply chain and could be impacting them in any way whatsoever.
That is, they can set their own levels. They can set what interests them. They can identify the suppliers they want to track to as many as the entire supply base. We will track those on an automated basis and give them updates to keep them abreast of what's happening.
Second, we're also going to give them the ability to monitor the entire supply base, from a heat-mapperspective, to strategically see the hot pockets -- by industry, by spend, or by geography -- that they need to pay particular attention to.
Third, we're also going to bring to them this automated capability to look at these 160,000 newswire sources and tell them the newswires that they need to pay attention to, so they can determine what kind of actions can they take from those, based on the activity that they see.
We're also going to bring those predictions to them. We have the ability now to look at and predict performance and disruption and deliver those also as alerts, as well as deeper analytics. By leveraging the power of HANA, we're able to bring real-time analysis to the customer.
They have those tools today, and so it'd be creating a totally personalized experience, where they can look at big data, look at it the way they want to, look at it the way that they believe risk should be measured and monitored, and be able to use that information right there and then for themselves.
Sharing environment
Last, they also have the ability to do this in an environment where they can share with each other, with their suppliers, and with others in the network, if they choose. What I mean by that is the model that we have used within Supplier InfoNet is very much like you see in Facebook.
When you have a supplier and you would like to see more of their supply base you request that you can see that, much like friending someone on Facebook. They will open up that portion -- some, little, none -- of their supply base that they would like you to be able to have access to. Once you have that, you can get alerts on them, you can manage them, and you can get input on them as well.
So there's an ability for the community to work together, and that's really the key piece that we see in the future, and it's going to continue to expand and grow as we take InfoNet and the Network out to the market.
Kamakshisundaram: If you take a step back, you can see why companies haven't been able to do something like this in the past. There were analytical models available. There were tools and technologies available, but in order to build a model that will help customers identify a multi-tier supply chain risk, you need a community of suppliers who are able to participate and provide information which will continue to help understand where the risk points are.
As David mentioned, where is your heat map? What does it say? And also, point to how you not only collect the information, but what kind of mitigating processes you have to put in place to mitigate those risks.
In certain industries, we see certain trends, whether it's automotive or aerospace. A lot of the suppliers that are critical in these industries are cross-industry. Focusing on a certain industry and having the suppliers only in that particular industry will give you only a portion of that information to understand and predict risk.
And this is where a community where participants actively share information and insights for the greater good helps. And this is exactly what we're trying to do with the Ariba Network and Supplier InfoNet.
Gardner: I'm trying to help our listeners solidify their thinking of how this would work in a practical sense in the real world. David, do you have any use-case scenarios that come to mind that would demonstrate the impact and the importance and reinforce this notion that you can't do this without the community involvement?
Case study
Charpie: Let's start with a case study. I'm going to talk about one of our customers that is a relatively small electronics distributor.
They signed on to use InfoNet and the Ariba Network to better understand what was happening down the multiple tiers of their supply chain. They wanted to make sure that they could deliver to their ultimate customers, a set of aerospace and defense contractors. They knew what they needed, when they needed it, and the quality that was required.
To manage that and find out what was going to happen, they loaded up Supplier InfoNet, began to get the alerts, and began to react to them. They found very quickly that they were able to find savings in three different areas that ultimately they could pass on to their customers through lower prices.
One of them was that they were able to reduce the amount of time their folks would spend just firefighting the risks that would come up when they didn't have information ahead of time. That saved about 20 percent on an annual basis.
Second, they also found that they were able to reduce the amount of inventory obsolescence by almost 15 percent on an annual basis as a result of that.
And third, they found that they were avoiding shortages that historically cut their revenues by about 5 percent due to the fact that previously they couldn't deliver on product that was demanded often on short notice. With the InfoNet all of these benefits were realized for them and became practical to achieve.
Their own perspective on this, relative to the second part of your question, was they couldn't do this on their own and that no one else could. As they like to say, I certainly wouldn't share my supply base with my competitor. The idea is that we can take those in aggregate, anonymize them, and make sure the information is cleansed in such a way that no one can know who the contributing folks are.
The fact that they ultimately have control of what people see and what they don't allows them to have an environment where they feel like they can trust it and act on it, and ultimately, they can. As a result, they're able to take advantage of that in a way that no one could on their own.
We've even had a few of the aerospace and defense folks who tried to build this on their own. All of them ultimately came back because they said they couldn't get the benchmark data and the aggregate community data. They needed an independent third party doing it, and SAP and Ariba are a trusted source for doing that.
Gardner: For those folks here at Ariba LIVE who are familiar with one or other of these services and programs or maybe not using either one, how do they start? They're saying, "This is a very compelling value in the supply chain, taking advantage of these big-data capabilities, recognizing that third party role that we can't do on our own." How do they get going on this?
Two paths
Charpie: There are two paths you can take. One of them is that you can certainly call us. We would be more than happy to sit down and go through this and look at what your opportunities are by examining your supply base with you.
Second, is to look at this a bit on your own and be reflective. We often take customers through a process, where sit down and look at supply risk and disruption they've have had in the past, and based on that, categorize those into the types of disruptions they've seen. What is based on quality? What is based on sub-tier issues? What is based on environmental things like natural disasters? Then, we group them.
Then we say, let's reflect on if you had known these problems were going to happen, as Sundar said three, six, eight months ahead, could you have done something that would have impacted the business, saved money, driven more revenue, whatever the outcome may be?
If the answer to those questions is yes, then we'll take those particular cases where the impact is understood and where an early warning system would have made a difference financially. We'll analyze what that really looks like and what the data tells us. And if we can find a pattern within that data, then we know going in that you're going to be successful with the Network and with InfoNet before you ever start.

Listen: Girl Talk Mixes Kanye West and Marilyn Manson, Daft Punk and Michael Jackson
By Lindsay Zoladz on July 18, 2013 at 4:18 p.m. EDT
When Kanye West debuted "Black Skinhead" on "Saturday Night Live" in May, it sure sounded like the track was sampling Marilyn Manson's 1996 hit "The Beautiful People." So when Yeezus came out a month later, plenty of people were surprised (shocked! you might even say) that (according to the production credits, at least) Manson's song hadn't been used.

FANNING SPRINGS, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a 6-year-old boy is dead after two family dogs attacked him outside his home.
Levy County Sheriff Bobby McCallum tells the Gainesville Sun (http://bit.ly/1qYXgTN ) that the attack occurred Thursday morning after the boy's father went to work.
McCallum says the boy was followed by the pit bulls when he went outside to play and that an aunt watching the boy did not notice anything unusual.
Later, the aunt looked outside and saw the boy lying in the driveway.
The sheriff says the dogs were well cared for and had current shots. They were seized by Levy County Animal Control after the attack.
The Dixie County chaplain was called in to help the family.

Thanks to Mary Tyler Moore –
More A Sweet Life May 28, 2014, 2:58 pm
Mary Tyler Moore was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes some four decades ago, and through the years sheŌĆÖs been perhaps the worldŌĆÖs top diabetes spokesperson.┬Ā But advocacy couldnŌĆÖt protect her from Type 1 diabetes complications.
The new Closer Weekly Magazine cover story on Mary Tyler Moore, tells the story of her battle with Type 1 diabetes, and her current state of health.
The Closer story reveals that Ms. Tyler Moore has almost completely lost her sight and is struggling with what her friend Valerie Harper called in the story ŌĆ£the ravages of diabetes.ŌĆØ
Her friend Betty White said, ŌĆ£[Tyler Moore is now] almost beyond the point [of being able to see]." And in fact, Ms. Tyler Moore has not made public appearances, for the most part, for the past two years. Even her traditional appearance at JDRFŌĆÖs ChildrenŌĆÖs Congress┬Āwas cancelled last summer.
This has caused a stir in the diabetes community. ┬ĀOn Facebook, one mother of a child with diabetes said, ŌĆ£We need a cure for Type 1 diabetes. When someone who has advocated for those battling and living with this disease, someone who is well known and successful, isn't immune to devastating affects, then you know a cure needs to be found. Best wishes to Mary for her health.ŌĆØ

My Lint line is Conrad LINT>Henry Jacob>Melchior>Daniel>William>Leah Lint Moody>my grandfather>my mother>me. The info I have here was given to me by Carl Lambert. I wasn't sure if you had it.
208. Henry Jacob LINT, born 05 February 1758 in Lancaster, Lancaster Co., PA. He was the son of 416. Conrad Thomas LINT, Sr. and 417. Magdalena (Ukwn) LINT. He married 209. Catherine BRICKER Abt. 1779 in Lancaster Co., PA.
209. Catherine BRICKER, born Abt. 1760 in Hamilton Twp., Franklin Co., PA. She was the daughter of 418. John BRICKER, Sr..
Notes for Henry Jacob LINT: Henry Lint is one of the most prolific [with 11 surviving children] of Conrath Thomas Lind's sons & yet he is the least researched. I believe a major reason is because Henry [being the 1st son in difficult times] didn't have the leisure of acquiring an education. He had to work to help support the family until it was too late for him to go back to school. Henry remained illiterate the rest of his life. Being illiterate is a burden often carried on by the chldrn, aggrivated by the cold hard facts of poverty. The descendents of Henry were mostly poor & worked in Somerset's coal industry. It wasn't until the 1900's that they broke out of the cycle. There are some descendents you will find in SW PA today are not far from that cycle though. The younger siblings on the other hand, except for Jacob & Rebecca, were able to acquire an education & trades. Their chldrn in turn were able to raise above the survival cycle.

Generation No. 9
416. Conrad Thomas LINT, Sr., born Abt. 1730 in Palatinate, Germany; died November 1803 in Paint Twp., Somerset Co, PA. He was the son of 832. Christian LIND. He married 417. Magdalena (Ukwn) LINT 1758.
417. Magdalena (Ukwn) LINT, born Abt. 1732 in Palatinate, Germany; died February 1814 in Paint Twp., Somerset Co, PA.
Notes for Conrad Thomas LINT, Sr.: Conrath Thomas Lind d. Nov 1803 & is buried near Paint Creek, Paint twp., Somerset co., PA. His w. Magdalena "Mary Ann" d. 1813 is buried nearby. It is believed they are buried on their old property. The sailing ship that Conrath, Johann & Georg came to Philadelphia from Rotterdam on was a "Snow Ketty" which is a classification of vessel & not the name. The ship's Captain was Theophilius Barnes. The manifest of foreign passengers qualified at the Court House in Philadelphia on the16th of Oct. 1752. The 3 Linds on board signed their names as follows: Johann Michel Lind, Georg Philips Lind, and Conrath Thomas Lind. A History of Bedford, Somerset & Fulton co.s, PA, published in 1882 stated " the parents of Christian Lint Sr (ie., Conrath Thomas Lind) came from Germany & were sold for their passage money. The mother labored 6 yrs to pay, the father probably not so long". Per a letter by Mrs. Weigle (Lenore Hartig), a descendant of John Lint & Elizabeth Walters, our Conrath came to Somerset co., PA between 1792 & 94. This is partially confirmed by the marriage of Christian Lind & Elizabeth Lichtenberger on 10 Dec 1793 in Berlin, Brothers Valley twp., Somerset co., PA by Reverend Giese. The attendance records of the same church show Melchoir Seese & his w. Sophia also in attendance 1 Jan. 1788 [he as a Deacon]. This indicates that the period of Conrath's family moved may have even been before 1792-94. Conrath shows up on the 1796 tax records for Somerset twp., Somerset co., PA, but some of his heirs remained in the Lancaster, PA area; reference an1803 record of estate. Recorded in 1806 Somerset co., deed book vol., 3 page 698, was an agreement signed by all of Conrath's chldrn & heirs which would grant Magdalena "Mary Ann" Lind their property for the remainder of her yrs. The significance of this document is that 3 of the signers were illiterate & signed their names with a X (ie., Henry Lind, Jacob Lind & Rebecca Lind). The lawyer or witness to the signatures had written in their names next to their X's by spelling their names LINT. The other 5 signers were literate & signed their names; John Bricker, Melchoir Seese, Conrad LIND, John LIND & Christian LIND. As in the previous example, the name LIND rapidly changed to LINT. A reason for this is when the anglicized ear hears the letter "D" spoken in German it sounds like a "T" or "DT". The Swedes who came to Amer. named LIND didn't have the same problem, & kept the LIND spelling. Almost all the Germans who immigrated as LIND changed to LINT within 2 generations. Despite folklore about Lint families being descendant from Swiss or Swedish stock & claims of Jenny Lind (from Sweden) being a cousin, all the early LINDs who later became LINTs were from what is now Germany & they spoke old german. Those who could read & write did so in old German. A primary reason for Germans of the palatinate to immigrate to Amer. during the period was to escape religious persecution, overcrowding, & economic chaos resulting from wars. Most were of the Reformed Luth. faith. Conrath Thomas Lind took his oath of allegiance in Lancaster co., PA 13 Jun 1777. In the summer of 1994 we made an exciting discovery by connecting what was then refered to as the "Peter Lind" branch of Lints in the US to their ancestors in Graben, Germany. No connection has been made between that branch of Linds & Conrath Thomas Linds branch. It is the 1st time (to my knowledge) though that a positive connection between the US & Europe has been established with any Lint branch. That "Peter Lind" branch is now refered to as the "Valentine Lind" branch after it's patron who raised his fam. in Graben, Germany about the 1630 time frame. In the summer of 1995 David Diehl of Jacobus, PA proved the connection between the "Henry Lind" branch of York co., PA & Franz Josef Lind of Fachsenfeld, Wurttemberg, Germany. We followed up on this & have taken that branch back to about 1525. As of this entry we do not have a positive connection between the 3 Linds who got off a "Snow Ketty" in Philadelphia in 1752, but after the Henry-Franz Josef connection was made, I plotted over 700 Linds [1510-1850] on maps of Germany. The plottings revealed 4 distinct groups of Linds; in the Wurttemberg area, in the Pfalz-Rheinhessen area, in the Mosel-Hunsruck area [where I live 6 mo.s out of the yr], & in an area near Aachen just west of Bonn. Name patterns are positive for the families in the Rheinhessen area but no positive connection has been made yet. Research will continue again the summer of 1996 & appropriate updates made. The "Jenny Lind connection" which is folklore in several Lint branches plus a public statement made by the Bishop Gillian Lint (as quoted in a newspaper article) is under investigation with queries pending with Swedish archives in Stockholm. Conrath's military service has been confused by past researchers. If you consider that Conrath Thomas Lind was at least 45-50 during the Rev. war & his son Conrad was 16 the choice of which Conrad was who can be confusing. If you studying the average ages of some of the early rev. war conscripts though it's easier to believe it was the son Conrad that was active in the rev. war & not the father. Although there is more than 1 Conrad Lind enumerated on the rev. war rolls which tells us that they both probably served in different capacities. A Conrad Lind served under Captain John Muller's 5th Co. of the PA 8th Battalion. Was it the father or the son? Conrad Lint is listed as a member of the 6th Bat. Militia of Cumberland Co., & recorded on the payroll Aug. 28, 1793. Notes for Magdalena (Ukwn) LINT: Mary Ann or Magdalena (which is it) or is it one & the same? Depending upon who's research you read it could have been either. Most documents in her later yrs [wills, etc.] refer to her as Mary Ann. Mary Ann is simply an anglicized form of the more germanic Magdalena. I believe from the documents & research I've seen thus far that Conrath Thomas Lind's w. was of german descent & they either m. in Germany & came over together on the Snow Ketty in 1752 into Philadelphia or they met & m. after they came to Philadelphia. The ships records do not list any of the female passengers, only the males so there isn't any way of determining her point & time of entry. She was definitely b. in Germany though & I believe began her life as Magdalena. Once she came to Amer. her name gradually changed to the more anglicized form of Mary Ann. F
Children of Conrad LINT and Magdalena LINT are:
208 i. Henry Jacob LINT, born 05 February 1758 in Lancaster, Lancaster Co., PA; married Catherine BRICKER Abt. 1779 in Lancaster Co., PA.
ii. Catherine Elizabeth LINT, born 07 April 1760 in Lancaster, Lancaster Co., PA; married John BRICKER, Jr. Abt. 1780 in Lancaster Co., PA; born Abt. 1758 in Hamilton Twp., Franklin Co., PA.

iii. Sophia LINT, born 29 December 1762 in Lancaster, Lancaster Co., PA; died 17 November 1854 in Scalp Level, Cambria Co., PA; married Melchoir SEESE I 1783 in Lancaster Co., PA; born 16 February 1759 in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany; died 06 June 1835 in Paint Twp., Somerset Co., PA.
Notes for Sophia LINT: After the Revolution Sophia & Melchior settled 1st in Elk Lick Twp. & later in what was then Quemahoning (now Paint Twp.)
More About Sophia LINT: Baptism: 01 January 1763, First Reformed Lutheran Church Of Lancaster, PA Burial: Seese Cem, Paint Twp., Somerset Co., PA Notes for Melchoir SEESE I: He came to Amer. as a small child with his father settling in Upper Salford Twp., Bucks Co., PA. He served in the Rev. War & several enlistments in the Cumberland Co. Militia. His war record is given in the PA Archives with his name spelled in several ways. His records show serv. from 1779 to 1782. After the Rev. he & Sophia settled 1st in Elk Lick Twp. & later in Quemahoning (now Paint Twp.) Melchoir was a teacher on his farm & is the only Seese listed in 1800 census for Somerset Co., PA. Both Melchoir & Sophia are buried in a family graveyard on land owned in 1978 by Robert H. Seese. This burial plot also contains members of the families Weaver, Custer, as well as Seese. Melchoir is buried on Jonas Weaver farm. We spoke with Mr. Robert H. Seese, who gave us directions to the property. Ellis Berkebile purchased the property from Robert H. Seese around 1988. To reach this gravesite, take SR 601 south off SR 56. Go to top of the hill passing Mt. Zion Luth. Cem. on the right & turn left onto Spruce Run Rd. Go 0.6 miles to farm on right. Cem. is on far left property line behind barns in a grove of trees at the top of a hill. Mrs. Berkebile is the great-granddau. of Jonas Weaver, for whom the farm is named. They now board horses & still farm the land. Melchoir's grave was marked by the DAR in 1930. Both Melchoir & Sophia are buried in a forgotten old Cem. located along a tree line of the McCreary & Galbreath farms along Spruce Run Rd. Melchoir arrived in Amer. with his father Jacob Seese on a ship named "Betsy" which arrived in Philadelphia on 19 Sep 1765.

Notes for Conrad Thomas LINT, Jr.: Lived in Somerset Co., PA. Good information on Conrad Thomas Lint Jr. is not to be had. Some of the best data was gained from a composite of census's from Somerset Co., PA covering 1800, 1810, & 1820. Although Conrad Thomas Lint Jr. d. in Nov. 1805 his w. Catherine held the little family together over the next 21 yrs until she d. in 1826. Also on 30 Nov. 1805 in Somerset, Somerset Co., PA, Conrad's estate was filed as #28. [copy in my files] When Conrad d. in 1805 apparently his w. Catherine either didn't want to be executor of his estate or was incompetent [grief stricken?]. In either event, on 30 Nov 1805 Catherine was "renounced" as executor of Conrad Lind's will & Christian Lint [Conrad's bro.] & Christian Kugel were appointed as administrators of the will. Alex Ogle & Gillian Lichtenberger [this is either Christian Lint's w. Elizabeth's father (probably) or bro. (possibly)] were appointed as bondsmen. Reciept's from disposition of the property were $554.34 of which only $160.93 remained for the heirs to share after all the bills were pd. The widow Catherine received 1/3 [ie., $53,64] & the rest was shared equally among the 5 chldrn each recieving $21.45. A note indicated that son John Lint bought $25.90, & son Jacob Lint bought $2.50 in goods sold at public venue.

vi. John LINT, born 21 February 1771 in Bethel Twp., Lebanon, PA; died 10 February 1855 in Greenville Twp., Somerset Co., PA; married Elizabeth WALTERS 12 October 1793 in Somerset Co., PA; born 25 June 1775 in Hagerstown, Washington Co., MD; died 05 April 1841 in Milford Twp., Somerset Co., PA. Notes for John LINT: John went to visit Greenville twp., & while he was there suffered a stroke & died. His remains couldn't be returned home because they were frozen & snowbound. When I interviewed John Noah Lint in 1991 he told this story & I was led to believe that John was ultimately buried at the Reformed Church near Pochahontas, PA. No marker remained since it was destroyed by a farmer. I believe now that the story was true, John Lint is in fact buried in Boyt's Burial Ground. This small plot containing only 13 tombstones [4 of them chldrns] is located on the farm of Josia J. Boyts in Quemahoning twp., Somerset co., PA about 4 mi.s east of Sipesville on Rte 311 above the Texas school house. More About John LINT: Baptism: Klopp Ref. Ch., Bethel Twp., Lebanon Co., PA Burial: Boyts Burial Ground, Quemahoning Twp., Somerset Co., PA Cause of Death: Stroke Military service: Drum Major In The War Of 1812 [Ref Notes] Occupation: farmer Notes for Elizabeth WALTERS: It's interesting to note that in the Sanner Church Cem. [about 2 miles N.E. of Rockwood in Black Twp., Somerset co., PA] Elizabeth Walters Lint has 2 tombstones. 1 tombstone has 25 Jun 1775 - 15 Apr 1841 wife of John Lint. The other has 25 Jun 1775 - 5 Apr 1844. More About Elizabeth WALTERS: Burial: Sanner Cem., Rockwood, Milford Twp., Somerset Co., PA

Generation No. 10
832. Christian LIND, born Abt. 1700 in Palatinate, Germany. Notes for Christian LIND: This individual existed but to date absolutely nothing is known about him except that following the customs of the time his name must have been Lind. It may possibly have been Linde or Lindt but I have found after several yrs of research in Germany that this is highly unlikely. Because of the social, political, religious, & military turmoil at the time, this individual could have been born almost anywhere in what we know today as Germany. Considering the time period in which his sons came to America though, there is a high probability they were born in the Palatinate of Germany. My research of the past couple of yrs has isolated about 4 groups of Linds in Germany. More About Christian LIND: Religion: Reformed Lutheran
Children of Christian LIND are:
416 i. Conrad Thomas LINT, Sr., born Abt. 1730 in Palatinate, Germany; died November 1803 in Paint Twp., Somerset Co, PA; married Magdalena (Ukwn) LINT 1758.
ii. Johann Michael LIND, born Abt. 1731 in Palatinate, Germany; died in Lancaster Boro, Lancaster Co., PA; married Abt. 1753 in Lancaster Co., PA.
Notes for Johann Michael LIND: The sailing ship that Conrath, Johann and Georg came to Philadelphia from Rotterdam on was a "Snow Ketty" which is a classification of vessel & not the name. The ship's Captain was Theophilius Barnes. The manifest of foreign passengers qualified at the Court House in Philadelphia on 16 Oct 1752. The 3 Linds on board signed their names as follows: Johann Michel Lind, Georg Philips Lind, and Conrath Thomas Lind.

1. Internet space ships. Klingon ships are made for war, not diplomacy. My Klingon in his Tor'kaht means buiseness, a Fed tac captain in a stupid cruiser means failed optional.
2. Klingon culture. Rivalling houses, the lore singers and so on. Unfortunately, there are way too few storyline missions introducing the minor races. Player made contend made partially up for it.
3. Mature players. As a noob you have to start as Fed. That shows. ESD and DS9 local chats are unbearable. Player quality in Klingon group content is just way better.
4. As long as I can remember, I always played Klingons in star trek games.

If you're the type gamer who spends more than the normal amount of time tweaking your peripherals, then the Shift keyboard from SteelSeries deserves your consideration. Not only does it allow you to configure every single key, it also enables you to record macros on-the-fly and even switch out the entire keyset for another.
To call this review long-term would be somewhat of an understatement as the keyboard has been in use for several months, providing ample opportunity to test its features and to become accustomed to its layout.
The standard keyset has some alterations to accommodate the extra buttons and to take gamer preferences into consideration. The Win key on the left side is on the small side, minimizing accidental pressing in-game (although the key can be disabled via software). While the space bar may be split, it rarely interferes with typing.
With the inclusion of three new keys; Bar, Pad and SteelSeries (opens the software editor), the Print Screen, Scroll Lock and Pause keys have been pushed down and are part of the Insert, Home and Page-up block. This does push the keys down against the Arrow keys, but shouldn't interfere with normal use.
Key spacing is a little bit wide, providing a better feel for key placement, but due to the fact that the keys themselves are not actually attached to the keyboard, they do wobble a fair bit on the rubber domes below. This results in a sort of 'squishy' and spongy feeling to the keys. Key travel is still normal for a full height key, but with the usual rubber bounce for feedback.
When the keyset is replaced with one of the game-specific ones, the numpad and arrow keys are completely replaced with a different style and shape. Most of the keys become circular and the arrow keys are larger with rounded edges. The rounded edges actually proved to be quite a problem for me as it became extremely difficult to determine which key I was pressing due to the tight spacing and no sharp edges to feel for.
With new keys placed around the arrows too, blind navigation became extremely problematic since my hand rested on a whole bunch of keys with no easy way to distinguish which was which. Depending on the game set in use, key placement can also be all over the place too. Print Screen is often used by games to take screenshots (although some will use other keys), but with the 3 different key sets reviewed (Standard, MoH and WoW Cataclysm), the print screen key is in 3 different places. This makes switching from one keyset set to another a little more challenging due to a lack of consistency.
While all keys can be re-programmed, the different game sets make use of a different number of keys, so it would be best to stick with a single layout – if you can manage without the numpad of course.
Though much of the layout issues will be subjective, a number of issues did crop up as a result of the software – the make or break element of any gaming peripheral. While extremely flexible with regard to programmability, two separate keys proved to be consistently problematic, even through multiple updates. The Left Shift key and the B key.
For some unknown reason, the Left Shift key didn't always act as a shift key, it was either completely ignored or performed as Volume Up. This was not just a problem with the software, but the hardware, as the key was completely ignored under multiple Linux OS distros and behaved inconsistently under Windows 7 and XP on different PCs. Majority of testing was done through Windows 7.
The B key simply failed to capitalise correctly when typing quickly, resulting in 'Gb' or Tb' instead of 'GB' or 'TB' (important distinctions for us geeks). When recorded through the macro software, the issue became a little clearer. When typing slowly, 'GB' would be recorded [Shift+g+b]; when typed quickly, it would be recorded as [Shift+g b+Shift] – meaning that the B key was interrupting the shift somehow.
What proved more interesting was that the 5 key followed by B would result in a lowercase B, so the whole column of 5, T, and G would result in a lower case B (%b, Tb, Gb). Any other keys would result in a properly capitalised B (MB, LB). Further still, Typing B + 5, T or G would result in the second key being lower case (Bt, Bg, B5).
These two issues did become somewhat infuriating after a while, with the only solution being to change typing habits (using the right shift key and slowing down when typing a B).
When the keyboard was initially received, the drivers at the time suffered from some serious memory issues. Swapping key sets would continuously increase memory usage with each swap, resulting in memory consumption going from 80MB to over 300MB. This has since been corrected, but now replaced with a different issue – BSOD. After multiple key set swaps, the PC would lockup with a blue screen indicating that a device was trying to write to a read only section of memory. So, SteelSeries still has some memory issues to address with the software, especially since the engine.exe can sit in the background consuming 130MB of RAM.
These issues certainly tarnish an otherwise very useful and extremely flexible product. The problem is that the Shift has been for sale for quite some time and driver updates come out every few months, so it would have been nice to see these issues corrected already.
While the issues mentioned are annoying, they can be fixed – given enough time. The problem remains that nearly every peripheral has some kind of software issue. It is unfortunate that the Shift follows suit. It can not detract from the fact that the engine is extremely easy to use, which is quite refreshing, and does extended the functionality of the keyboard substantially. The keysets themselves are a bit of a gimmick, but are not outrageously expensive either. It is the software that makes the keysets useful.
The SteelSeries Shift is definitely a keyboard to take note of if you are heavily into customizing and macros. The keysets are a nice touch but are only part of what makes the keyboard great. If the software can be polished up, then we would have quite the piece of equipment. As it stands though, there are issues that still need addressing.
