I'm having some troubles reducing this.
I need to find the limit of where x approches -3?
ive forgotten how to factor
help would be much appreciated
The only reason you want to factor that is because both it and the denominator become 0 when x= -3. That means that x-(-3)= x+ 3 is a factor. Now just do a "long division" to find the other factor: x goes into times. Multiplying by x+ 3 we get
Now, x goes into -x times. Multiplying -x by x+ 3 we get .
Finally, x goes into -2x -2 times and, multiplying -2 by x+ 3 we get

'The Tudors' Star Jonathan Rhys Meyers Checks into Rehab
The Mirror is reporting that the 33-year-old actor, who has a history of battling alcohol addiction, is said to have spent 10 days at a London clinic last month.
He is believed to have left the facilities due to work commitments.
This is reportedly Meyers' fourth stint at rehab.
The actor last sought help for his alcohol addiction back in May 2010, just days after allegedly abusing airport staff after they banned him from getting on a flight while intoxicated. Meyers was seen drinking cocktails at 7 A.M. at New York's JFK airport where he was due to get on the flight.
The Daily Mail is reporting that the incident was said to be the final straw for Meyers' long-term girlfriend, Reena Hammer, who reportedly told him, "Check into rehab or I'm dumping you."
Meyers was also previously arrested in 2007 at the Dublin Airport for being drunk and disturbing the peace, though the charges were later dropped.
He was also detained by police in June 2009 at the Charles De Gaulle Airport in Paris after allegedly assaulting an employee at a bar while drunk.
Meyers has been brutally honest when he spoke about his issues with alcohol in the past. "When I do drink I'm like Bambi. I'm all over the place like a 16-year-old kid," he said.

Of course, he's a drunk. He's Irish. And, what's going on with that upper lip?
- Thursday 05 MayBy cathyLow Ranked Vote downVote upReport this
I do know some Irish people who do not drink excessively but not too many! It's sad but true the Irish drink too much, both the men and women! It's unsettling to see an Irish mother drunk around her children, they don't seem to see anything wrong with it. Which is why it is generational.
- Thursday 05 MayBy BobHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport this
Pure stereotype. According to recent data from the World Health Organization, Ireland does not even fall in the top 10 countries with respect to alocohol consumption per capita. That being said, the Irish are notoriosly good natured about the stereotype, rather than crying discrimiation.
- Thursday 05 MayBy Laura
I liked him in Tudors, but not much else. He is one of these actors that plays a part the same way, no depth. I dont understand these "movie stars" or "celebrities". (sorry for air quotes..lol). They have looks, money and fans who like them no matter what, and they abuse themselves with drugs and alcohol. I guess he has demons and they prefer whiskey...Hope he does better, he is hot (but not in this pic).
- Thursday 05 MayBy Mary THigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
Yes, I don"t know either why these successful people have such substance problems. I too loved his portrayal of Henry VIII and the series the "Tudors".

Mary T, it just goes to show that money doesn't buy you happiness. They just have the money to REALLY throw themselves down in the gutter!
ShaSha, a great human being, really? He is an alcoholic who won't get serious help and is an abusive drunk, not a great human being in my book!! - Thursday 05 MayBy jannamariaHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
He is such a great actor. Does he know he is harming himself tremendously by drinking excessively? He will age so fast and will look 70 by the time he is 50, not to mention what it will do to his organs. It's a terrible addiction and I hope he kicks the habit this time. Good Luck JRM...

Well he seems to be drunk in airports. Maybe he's afraid of flying and drinks to take the edge off :)

Such a good looking man, and talented, that's a shame. He will ruin his looks if he keeps this up, and though he does have talent, without those stunning looks, his talent won't carry him to any real degree. No one is going to check out one of his future movies based on his mad acting skillz, but his great cheekbones and icy blue eyes go a long way!.... Exhibit A: look at Peter O'Toole (who it's a miracle he's still alive). What is it with the Irish and certain Brits that they love the booze so very much? It's like a tradition they MUST carry on.
- Thursday 05 MayBy Carol
I am really sorry to hear that Jonathan has been back in rehab. I hope that he is soon well. He has many fans that are routing for him to beat his demons. He is a marvellous actor and I totally disagree with an earlier writer who said he plays all parts the same. I think he has a terrific range and he has taken on a variety of very different roles. All the very best Jonathan, I look forward to seeing that gorgeous smile of yours back on the screen really soon.
- Thursday 05 MayBy David
In my experience, alcohol abuse is usually a symptom of a deeper problem especially when the person changes into an abusive personality when they are loaded. There is anger about something that even he may not be aware of and the booze just releases the monster. People who do things when they are drunk and blame it on the drink are fooling themselves. That's who they really are and if they want to change they need to make peace with whatever is eating at them. Dealing with the underlying problem with a good councelor would probably do him a world of good. He was good in Bend it like Beckham.

Thursday 8:49 AM, 05/04/2012
Is it finally time for a royal baby? It's almost been one year since Prince William and Kate Middleton said "I do" and we're all on baby bump watch with Kate. It's been said that Kate and Will have started making family-friendly renovations on their Kensington Palace home. They want to be super prepared for a little royal! They've put off major travel plans and are going to instead focus on starting a family. We can't wait for a little prince or princess! (people)

• Museum of Television and Radio gala. Waldorf-Astoria, 301 Park Ave., nr. 49th St., 6 p.m. Hosted by Tom Brokaw in honor of Sir Howard Stringer; guests include Helen Gurley Brown, Dominick Dunne, Angela Lansbury, Morley Safer, and Andy Rooney. Wow. That's a lot of people who are really, really … uh … experienced in the breadth and totality of television and radio history.
• "Lovestruck" party presented by Lincoln Center Chamber Music patrons' society. Marlborough Gallery, 40 W. 57th St., nr. Fifth Ave., 7 p.m. Hosted by Gwyneth Paltrow, this event is allegedly a celebration of sensuality and indulgence. We're not saying it isn't, but all the people who got their pictures taken at the event last year must be really good at keeping a poker face on their sensual indulgence.

Very accommodating of an early check in and friendly staff. The room was great, clean and spacious and suberb value for money. Good location too. Would definitely stay again if back in the area. Recommended.

The Lord Nelson was just 2 minutes walk from the town centre, bars, cafes and restaurants. It is located for convenient travelling on the main A-road to visit other beautiful areas and had its own private car park to the rear. The room was clean, comfortable, with a smart little shower room. Breakfast was lovely with polite, friendly and attentive staff. Would certainly stay again.
Can only complain about the weather - it was so INCREDIBLY windy on the days of our stay that it made the sash windows rattle - but the floor length curtains kept the room draft free.
Would not stay here again appalling service and not friendly. Unhelpful and poorly staffed and furnished.
Very clean room and en suite. All necessary fittings, ie. hair dryer and drinks(coffee etc )tray in room. Very friendly owners and lovely breakfast.Would stay again. as ideal for Ironbridge visits.
Looked a little shabby at front entrance( bell did not seem to work ) but spotless, fast friendly service.
Very reasonable priced breakfast
Table light and bathroom shaver light not working.
Was ok for the money.
Cold shower, despite the heating being on full blast all day and night!! making it very uncomfortable through the night as it was just too hot. rooms were very basic. and the kettle was mouldy.
Free parking, Location, price
Attitude during check-in, stayed numerous times in the past 5 Years but on this occasion not made to feel welcome!, Just given keys and told to find Room which was located on the top floor which felt claustrophobic with 1 small window(difficulty sleeping)-creaky unsteady floorboards by entrance to toilet/shower. One pack of Biscuits and three coffee sachets between us?? The Gentleman and the cook who normally greeted us warmly during previous stays were nowhere to be seen! All previous reviews have had 100% from both of us-not this time!!!
Excellent friendly staff. Good cooked breakfast for £5 per head. Would stay again.
The outside of the property is very run down. In fact when we arrived the place looked like it had closed down. However I was greeted by a very friendly gentleman and was pleasantly surprised once inside.
Clean and tidy.comfortable beds.
Rooms lacked a bit of comfort. Would have liked a chair and a little table relax in when 1st getting up.instead of having to sit on bed.hotel could do with some decorating.
Staff pleasant and helpful. Quiet central location. Excellent all-round value for money and lovely breakfast for only a fiver. Will be back.
No indication in advance or on arrival that initial access is via the back (car-park) door. (Thereafter front door access with key).
nice old house, lovely room with a good bed, tv and tea making things in the room, fresh towels every day, room and bathroom cleaned perfectly every day, very good breakfast served with a big smile... would definetely book again!
Alround good budget hotel. Good location. Hotel clean tidy and smart inside and out. Very friendly staff that helped with every need. Great price.

I liked Rocky & Bullwinkle up until the 1980's.
There was almost no music in the actual cartoons,
except for the title sequences. I even remember
watching America's Funniest People, the spin-off
to America's Funniest Home Videos, and that show
just happened to be hosted by 2 people who often
immitated Rocky & Bullwinkle, themselves. The
sound effects in the cartoon series were a little
too repetative, though I loved the 11 Road Runner
shorts that used them. I think Warner Bros. should
release them on DVD to remind us of Alexander
Anderson Jr.'s creation of Rocky & Bullwinkle,
and the sounds that came with them all. Ny favorite
1960's Road Runner short is The Solid Tin Coyote.

Manitoba alert for hog virus
THE Manitoba hog industry is taking special precautions to avoid contamination against a nasty virus that is wreaking havoc in pig herds in 15 states in the U.S.
Andrew Dickson, executive director of the Manitoba Pork Council, said his members are being urged to follow bio-security measures to prevent the spread of the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, also known as PED.
"We have not got it, and our concern is that we do not get it," he said. "It's a very bad disease."
Truck drivers are being urged to wash their trucks thoroughly when coming in from the U.S., and Manitoba hog-barn operators are following special protocols so there is less ability for the disease to be transmitted to the local pig population.
"The Canadian herd is naive. That means there is no resistance," Dickson said. "And this virus spreads rapidly."
Dr. Nick Striegel, assistant state veterinarian for the Colorado Department of Agriculture, said Wednesday the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus was thought to exist only in Europe and China, but Colorado and 14 other states began reporting it in April and officials confirmed its presence in May. The virus causes severe diarrhea, vomiting and severe dehydration in pigs and can be fatal.
"It has been devastating for those producers where it has been diagnosed. It affects nursing pigs, and in some places, there has been 100 per cent mortality," Streigel said.
He said the disease is not harmful to humans and there is no evidence it affects pork products.
He said reporting outbreaks to federal officials isn't required, so the extent of the spread is difficult to determine, but in Colorado, at least two large production facilities have seen outbreaks.
The virus has been confirmed in about 200 hog facilities in 14 other states, including Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and South Dakota, according to the American Association of Swine Veterinarians.
This comes on the heels of legal action the Canadian Pork Council and seven other American and Canadian meat and livestock groups have taken against the U.S. Department of Agriculture in federal court in Washington, D.C., to block implementation of new country-of-origin labelling (COOL) requirements.
The rules, approved in May by the USDA's Agriculture Marketing Service, require meat labels to detail where animals grown for meat were born, raised and slaughtered. The USDA also decided to prohibit processors from mixing meat from animals that come from different countries.
The American Meat Institute, a trade group for packers, processors and suppliers, and the seven other groups say segregating the meat is not part of the law Congress passed. They say it would be costly and offers no food-safety or public health benefit.
The USDA did not immediately comment on the lawsuit filed Monday.

Description This invention relates to automatic profiling of network event sequences. The behavior of network objects, such as flows, sessions, hosts, and end users, can often be described by sequences of communication events in the time domain. Understanding the behavior of networking objects such as traffic flows, sessions, hosts, or users are essential in many applications of network measurement and monitoring. Such behavior can often be described by event sequences, where by event sequence refers to a series of events that i) they are affiliated with the same entity, ii) each event is identified by a symbol, iii) symbols take limited discrete values. While many event sequences can be found in a variety of networking scenarios, three example cases include: TCP SYN/FIN/RST sequences: The TCP protocol signals the start and the end of a TCP connection with packets that are distinguished by flags in the header. The first packet has a SYN flag set; the last usually has the FIN flag set. A TCP connection can also be terminated by a packet with the RST flag set in the header. The arrival of SYN, FIN and RST in a TCP connection forms an event sequence. SIP-based VoIP call sessions: SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is the defactor signaling protocol for VoIP services. Because VoIP relies on SIP to setup and tear down call sessions, each session contains SIP control messages like INVITE, ACK and BYE. Such control messages in each session form an event sequence. Wi-Fi user sessions: In Wi-Fi wireless networks, a user needs to establish a wireless connection with the nearby access point (AP) to access the Internet. In this case, a user session can be defined as the duration between the user joining and leaving the wireless network. A user session is established, secured and terminated through control message exchange between the user and AP. All such messages within a user session become an event sequence. As a common problem in network measurement and monitoring tasks, operators often seek simple and effective solutions to understand the diverse behavior hidden in a large amount of event sequences�including both the massive normal behavior and potentially the behavior of a small proportion of anomalies. The system provides for a complete profiling of massive event sequences. Accurate yet information-compact profiling of such event sequences is critical for many network measurement and monitoring tasks. The system can handle the multi-dimensional behavior exhibited by event sequences. That is, the sequence behavior can not be fully described by a single variable or distribution. Instead, it possesses at least two types of important properties: sequential patterns constituted by symbols, and duration between events. In practice, even one type of properties might be difficult to be described precisely. E.g., although the aforementioned TCP SYN/FIN/RST sequence has only three discrete symbols, the system can handle a large number of patterns with the longest pattern having in excess of 100 symbols (based on a trace collected at a gateway router). For duration related applications, the system can provide a precise profiling. Taking the VoIP sequence in There are a large number of prior work on modeling or mining sequence-alike data in areas as diverse as speech recognition, bio-informatics, database, database mining and system. In speech recognition field, applied hidden Markov models (HMM) to cluster a string of acoustic units. In database and database mining field, mining sequential patterns have been studied intensively in the past years. Many of these work focus on discovering rules instead of modeling. For example, Internet users' navigation records are modeled by using a mixture model consisting of first-order Markov chains. In system areas, a relevant research direction is to detect anomalies (or intrusion) via mining sequential system states such as system calls. In networking areas there are few studies on sequence-alike data analysis and applications. Some recent efforts are devoted to inferring properties of traffic flow. Recently, certain work applies various data mining techniques to identify significant patterns or insignificant anomalies from various traffic entities such as flows, Internet backbone traffic and host communication patterns. Systems and methods are disclosed that profile event sequences by creating a mixture model from the event sequences; estimating parameters for the mixture model; and applying the mixture model to profile the event sequences. Advantages of the preferred embodiment may include one or more of the following. The system supports profiling the behavior hidden in massive event sequences. On a given sequence set, the system automatically learns a mixture model which fully captures the sequence behavior including both event order and duration between events. The learned mixture model is information-compact as it classifies sequences into a set of behavior templates, which are described by multiple continuous-time Markov chains. The model parameters are learned in an iterative procedure based on the Expectation Maximization algorithm. Various network management applications can be done: a visualization tool for network administrators to conduct exploratory traffic analysis, and an efficient anomaly detection mechanism. The accuracy of the system and the efficiency of the two applications have been validated with real data traces collected in three network scenarios: TCP packet traces, VoIP calls, and syslog traces in wireless networks. The system produces a convenient manifestation of the massive behavior within a set of event sequences. The method inherently classifies sequences into so-called elephants and mice categories. This opens a door for a variety of exploratory data analysis tasks. The visualization tool can show the produced compact category information and is valuable for network operators to have an intuitive and easy understanding on behavior patterns in large amount of traffic data. Secondly, because the method provides a way to profile activities of network objects, it can be applied to distinguish normally-behaved objects and abnormally-behaved ones. Such a capability is essential for the design of anomaly detection schemes. The continuous-time Markov chain based mixture model captures both sequential pattern and time information. The method is particularly suitable for networking problems. The system can target network behavior that can be described by a sequence of symbols which take values from a limited number of discrete values. The system provides system operators with tools to conveniently monitor massive traffic. The method of Next, the mixture model approach is discussed in more detail. In a continuous-time Markov chain for TCP SYN/FIN/RST sequences, each transition is labeled by its probability and rate. The rate for any transition adjacent to the �start� and �end� states are infinite because such transitions are considered to take zero time. The system learns a model from input sequence data. Once the model is learned, it is expected to mimic the sequence behavior. The basic model assumes that an event sequence is independently generated from one out of C Continuous Time Markov Chains (CTMCs), and the sequence is mapped onto a path in it. The approach is also called mixture-model based since the model contains multiple components. Each component characterizes one type of sequence behavior so that the entire model is able to characterize the diverse behavior in massive sequences. Turning now to the structure of CTMCs, the CTMCs in the mixture model have the same structure. In each CTMC, there is a corresponding state for every discrete symbol value appearing in sequences. In addition, CTMC includes two special states: �start� and �end�. CTMC is full meshed, i.e., any state can transit to another state, including the state itself. The only exceptions are: the �start� state has no incoming transitions and the �end� state has no outgoing transitions. For each transition, both its probability and duration are modeled. For the transition from state u and v, its probability is denoted by quv; its delay is assumed to follow an Exponential distribution with a parameter λuv, which is also called transition rate. As an example, Given the above structure, any event sequence can be mapped to a path from the �start� state to the �end� state on CTMC. Also, creating such a CTMC only requires to know the total number of discrete symbols. These two features make the model applicable for various event sequences. To formally describe the problem, S denotes the input sequence set. s denote one sequence instance in S. N denotes the size of S. A complete description of s is a tuple {b1(s), t1,2(s), b2(s), t2,3(s), b3(s), . . . , bl(s)(s)}, where bi(s) is the i-th symbol in s, ti,i+1(s) is the duration between the i-th and i+1-th symbol, and l(s) is the sequence length. M denotes the number of states in each CTMC. M includes the �start� and the �end� state. Θ denotes the entire parameter set of the mixture model. θc denotes parameters in CTMC c (c=1, . . . , C). θc includes all those transition parameters quv and λuv. If necessary, a superscript is added to such transition parameters to specify which CTMC they belong to. For example, quv c denotes the transition probability from state u to v in CTMC c. Given the above notations, the probability of observing a sequence s is given by
where πc is called mixture probability. It is also a parameter included by Θ. πc shall be interpreted as the a priori probability of assigning a sequence to CTMC c. πc must satisfy the constraint
Initially, all parameters in the model, Θ, are unknown. The goal is to train the model with input data and find those parameters that best explain sequence behavior in the data. In the next section, an exemplary algorithm for parameter estimation is discussed. The Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm is used to derive parameters in the mixture model. EM algorithm is a general method for finding the maximum likelihood estimate for model parameters when the observed data is incomplete. The procedure of EM algorithm is shown in
In the above algorithm, the estimate for Θ is updated in an iteration manner. In the l+1-th loop, a new estimate for Θ is obtained and denoted by Θl+1. Θl+1 is computed based on training data and Θl, which is the estimate obtained in the l-th loop. The iteration procedure is guaranteed to converge to a solution Θ that yields a local maximum value for the target likelihood function log(Θ|S). In applying EM algorithm, the system determines Q(Θ,Θl) and maximizes Q(Θ,Θl) in each loop. These are the so-called expectation step and maximization step. The following equations hold for a mixture model
where p(c|s,Θl) is the posterior probability of assigning s to CTMC c. It can be computed via Bayes' theorem that In ((2)), pc(s|Θ) is the probability of generating a sequence s from CTMC c which takes parameters from Θ. Its mathematical form can be derived is as following
where Δt and tmax are two user-defined constants. p(λ,t) returns a fixed yet small probability when the transition delay t is larger than tmax, When t is less than or equal to tmax, p(λ,t) returns the accumulated Exponential density probability over the time interval Now Q(Θ,Θl) in ((1) is maximized. The two parts on the right side are independent and can be maximized separately. To maximize the first part, by substituting ((3)) ((4)) into the first part:
where To maximize ((5)) with respect to each transition parameter, a transition from state u to state v is done in CTMC c. The transition may appear in a sequence s for an arbitrary number of times. I(s, u, v) denotes the frequency that the transition appears in s. Γ(s, u, v) denotes the aggregate duration for all such transitions. Again, in computing Γ(s, u, v) the previously defined tu,v*(s) is used whenever tu,v(s) is involved. Since transition probabilities are constrained by
Next, the second part of the right side in ((1)) is maximized with respect to πc. Again the Lagrange multiplier method is applied because of the constraint
The three equations, ((6)) ((7)) and ((8)), comprise the parameter estimation process at the l+1-th loop of the iteration procedure. Using protocol knowledge to fix certain parameters, certain parameters are fixed to constants by using the prior knowledge on involved networking protocols. This not only improves the model accuracy, but also reduces computational complexity because the fixed parameters no longer participate in the parameter estimation procedure. Both transition probabilities and rates can be fixed. Below are two commonly used strategies:
Because the model is a collection of multiple CTMCs, prior to any probability (or rate) fixing for the transition between state u and v, the number of CTMCs this operation should be applied to needs to be selected. In principle, such a decision depends on the confidence level on the domain knowledge. A high confidence level implies that the knowledge always holds in reality and no exceptions will happen; if this is true, the parameter fixing operation should be applied to all the CTMCs. Otherwise, only a subset of CTMCs can have their parameters fixed in the hope that the other CTMCs can still adjust their parameters to model exceptions. Next, the selection of initial values for free parameters will be discussed. After certain parameters are fixed with domain knowledge, the rest are undecided parameters and will be estimated via the iterative procedure. Prior to the iteration procedure, initial values are assigned to them. In practice, random numbers are used as the initial values. A normalization operation is added to ensure that those initial values satisfy constraints such as Next, the selection of C is done. C (the total number of CTMCs) is selected prior to the iteration procedure. Selecting an appropriate value for C is needed because it balances model accuracy with complexity. The method uses the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) which is defined as
where U is the free parameter number in the model. It is easy to show that the total parameter count of the model is C(2M2−7M+6)−1. After using protocol knowledge to fix certain parameters, U should be much smaller than the total parameter count. The introduced AIC measures the goodness of fit for models. A chosen C that minimizes AIC(Θ) is interpreted as a good balance between model accuracy and complexity. In applying AIC, an upper bound for C is selected and then the system searches below the upper bound for a choice of C that minimizes AIC(Θ). How to choose the upper bound depends on the number of states in each CTMC, as well as the prior knowledge on how heterogeneous the sequence behavior could be. A high upper bound should be chosen if CTMC has many states or the sequence behavior are highly heterogeneous. The major computational complexity is caused by the three equations ((6)) ((7)) and ((8)). Their required complexity is to multiply N by the total number of free parameters, which is bounded by O(CM2). Prior to solving these three equations, ((3)) and ((4)) must be computed. While Equation ((3)) requires O(CN), Equation ((4)) involves an Exponential function which can be replaced by a lookup table in implementation. So the complexity for ((4)) is O(M2). Overall, the computational complexity in one iteration is upper bounded by O(NCM2+CN+M2)≈O(NCM2). This complexity is multiplied by the number of iterations. This number is less than twenty in all the experiments. As mentioned above, the presented model is expected to characterize two aspects of the sequence behavior: the sequential pattern constituted by symbols, and durations between symbols. It is important to understand the model sensitivity with respect to each aspect because this decides the capability of the model in distinguishing sequences with different behavior. In this section the model sensitivity is analyzed. An example shows how the model sensitivity is affected by parameter selection. The model sensitivity can be tailored according to application requirements. The model sensitivity can be controlled by two parameters: tmax and Δt (see ((4))). From ((4)), it is clear that the difference of transition delay only matters when the duration is less than or equal to tmax. If tmax is small, the model tends to be insensitive to variance of transition delay. In the last example, if tmax=100, which is larger than any transition delay in s, and Δt=1, then the probability of s being generated from each CTMC is as follows
There is p(s|θ1)?p(s|θ2). Since the two CTMCs have equal mixture probabilities, the model has a higher posterior probability to assign s to CTMC 1 than to CTMC 2. On the other hand, if Δt=10 and tmax is unchanged, there is p(s|θ1)=p(s|θ2), the assignment becomes different. This example gives the following insight: while a smaller Δt makes the model more sensitive to transition delay, a larger Δt makes it more sensitive to the order of symbols. In an extreme scenario, to ascertain whether the order of symbols follows certain protocol logic, then tmax=0. In the other extreme scenario where the system is only interested in duration, tmax is made larger than any possible duration values and Δt is close to zero. Lastly, it is possible to specify different tmax and Δt for different transitions. This feature is particularly useful when transitions have unequal importance. E.g., if a transition is not within the concern, its tmax and Δt are adjusted to let the mixture model ignore the impact of its variance. The experiments test the three types of event sequences as mentioned above: TCP SYN/FIN/RST sequences, SIP-based VoIP calls and Wi-Fi user sessions. The sample data is extracted from three network traces, respectively. These include a TCP packet trace collected from a gateway router, a VoIP call traces, and a syslog trace in Wi-Fi wireless networks. The TCP trace is publicly available and is collected from a border router at UCLA during August 2001. The trace is about 16 hours long. From the trace the SYN, FIN, RST packets are extracted and grouped into event sequences by their flow identities, i.e., the tuple (source IP, destination IP, source port, destination port). In total 505K TCP SYN/FIN/RST sequences were extracted. The VoIP trace is collected from a VoIP testbed. An open-source software SIPp for VoIP call generators was used and another open-source software SER was used as the SIP proxy. SIPp was deployed on twenty PlanetLab nodes and generated calls to the SIP proxy. tcpdump was used to capture packets at the proxy and extract all the call sessions. To make the testbed more realistic, intentionally created packet loss and delayed reply were simulated at both call sender and receiver sides. The trace was about 1.5 h the long with 16K call sessions logged. The third trace was syslog data collected from the campus-wide wireless networks in Dartmouth College. The syslog trace contained all the syslog messages exchanged between Wi-Fi wireless cards and their associated access points. In the experiment, only the trace for one access point was used in the first two weeks of 2003. This selected trace includes 2.2M syslog events which are further grouped into 122K user sessions by using the MAC address. The method was tested against the three traces on a Intel Xeon(R) 1.60 GHz processor. Table 1 summarizes the experiment settings and basic results. The column �Significant CTMCs� is particularly interesting. It reveals how many popular behavior templates the input sequences have. Such significant CTMCs are closely related to the network protocol underlying the data.
Two metrics were used to evaluate the accuracy of the method: histogram of sequence size and histogram of sequence duration. Both metrics are self-evident. For either metric, A consistency reported by the comparison of the data and fitted model indicates that the model does capture the input sequence behavior. While computing the histograms for the input data is straightforward, it is difficult to analytically derive the histograms from the created models so Monte Carlo simulations was applied. The comparison is conducted for all the three datasets and the results are provided in The histogram of sequence size is further broken down to examine the histogram of each discrete symbol. The comparison results are shown in Next the applications of the method are discussed with two showcases. The first showcase is a visualization tool that allows network operators to conduct exploratory data analysis; the second showcase is a novel anomaly detection mechanism. In the exploratory data analysis application, by nature of the mixture model, the method classifies input event sequences into different CTMCs. Each CTMC is a cluster that profiles a group of sequences with similar behavior. This feature is attractive to various exploratory data analysis tasks such as monitoring dominant traffic trend, detecting outliers, developing alternative parsimonious traffic model. As a showcase, a tool was developed to visualize the clusters produced by the method. Its purpose is to use graphic display to aid network operators' understanding on large volume of event sequence dataset. In the above scenario, the tool displays only the significant CTMCs by pruning those insignificant ones. This enables operators to promptly catch the dominant trend hidden in the data and take actions if necessary. For example, it is well known that most TCP RSTs are caused by the implementation of certain Web browsers, network outages, or malicious attacks. If the visualization tool reveals that the popularity of TCP RSTs is increasing sharply, operators are alarmed and they should examine whether a TCP reset attack is launched. On the other hand, the tool can also display those insignificant, yet possibly unusual behavior. Enabling the option or not is purely subject to operators' requirements. Turning now to anomaly detection, because the modeling approach provides one way to describe the behavior of network objects, it is readily applicable to anomaly detection whose duty is essential to distinguish abnormally-behaved objects from normally-behaved ones. There could be many ways to design an anomaly detection method. Nevertheless, a simple method can use the modeling method and the visualization tool mentioned earlier. In anomaly detection two sets of event sequences are analyzed: S and Ŝ. While S are known to be clean without anomalies, Ŝ are the test dataset may have anomalies. In reality, Ŝ could be generated by one host or user, or the data collected in a monitoring period. The goal of the anomaly detection technique is to determine whether the behavior of Ŝ is different from S based on certain criteria. If different, Ŝ is reported to contain anomalies. First, a model Θ is built for S. Θ is considered to represent the normal behavior. In principle another model for Ŝ can be built and compared to Θ. If the two models have significantly different parameter values, Ŝ contains anomalies. Despite its seemingly simplicity, this approach suffers from one drawback: training two models are time-consuming and Ŝ is usually small and insufficient for training a reliable model. Therefore, after obtaining Θ, the system extracts the mixture probabilities πc from Θ. πc are the a priori probability for a sequence coming from CTMC c. Such a distribution is denoted by P(CTMC c)=πc. This distribution represents the normal behavior. Next, Θ is applied to calculate the membership probability p(c|s,Θ) for every s in Ŝ. p(c|s,Θ) is the probability for assigning s to CTMC c. It satisfies the constraint
where Ec shall be interpreted as the number of sequences in Ŝ that are assigned to CTMC c. It is also called the observed frequency count for CTMC c. Clearly, if the sequence behavior in Ŝ and in S are similar, the observed frequency counts E1, . . . , EC should follow the a priori distribution P(CTMC c)=πc. Thus this fact is the basis for anomaly detection. Specifically, the system applies χ2 (chi-square) statistics to measure the fitness between the observed frequency counts and the distribution, that is, compute
where |Ŝ| is the size of Ŝ, |Ŝ|πc is the expected frequency count for CTMC c. Because the value of χ2 is affected by |Ŝ|, it is normalized in the following way
The above Cc is usually called contingency coefficient. Since it is normalized to be between zero and one, it is readily used to measure how likely an anomaly is detected. It equals zero when Ŝ exhibit identical behavior as S; and it equals one when their behavior do not resemble at all. In practice, a high value of Cc indicates Ŝ might be anomalies and require a closer examination. Overall, the presented technique requires to build a mixture model for a clean set of sequences. This only needs to be done occasionally under a reasonable assumption that the normal behavior does not change frequently. For each testing sample set Ŝ, the technique only needs to compute the membership probability for each sample. The technique is light-weighted and can be performed either online or offline. For the purpose of evaluation, the technique conducts an offline anomaly detection on the aforementioned TCP dataset. Since there is no clean dataset, the mixture probability distribution computed from the entire dataset is used to represent normal behavior. This is valid as long as the proportion of anomalies in the entire dataset is small. The system then divides the 16-hour trace into 30-minute intervals and computes the contingency coefficient for every interval. The results are shown in Automatic profiling of massive event sequences is critical for a variety of network measurement and monitoring tasks. The above embodiment automatically captures the behavior hidden in massive event sequences. The approach is based on a mixture model�a collection of continuous-time Markov chains. The most salient feature of the model is that it simultaneously captures both the order of events and duration between events. Prior domain knowledge on the event sequences can be seamlessly integrated into the model to improve accuracy and to reduce complexity. To estimate parameters of the model, an iterative algorithm based on the Expectation Maximization algorithm is used. The method is then applied to multiple network traces, including a TCP packet trace, a VoIP call collection and Wi-Fi syslog and the experimental results demonstrate that the method yields a high consistency with the real data. Furthermore, the method can be applied to two exemplary network monitoring tasks: 1) the visualization tool can be used for conducting exploratory traffic analysis and 2) an anomaly detection scheme that is light-weighted and can be used online or offline. The invention may be implemented in hardware, firmware or software, or a combination of the three. Preferably the invention is implemented in a computer program executed on a programmable computer having a processor, a data storage system, volatile and non-volatile memory and/or storage elements, at least one input device and at least one output device. By way of example, a block diagram of a computer to support the system is discussed next. The computer preferably includes a processor, random access memory (RAM), a program memory (preferably a writable read-only memory (ROM) such as a flash ROM) and an input/output (I/O) controller coupled by a CPU bus. The computer may optionally include a hard drive controller which is coupled to a hard disk and CPU bus. Hard disk may be used for storing application programs, such as the present invention, and data. Alternatively, application programs may be stored in RAM or ROM. I/O controller is coupled by means of an I/O bus to an I/O interface. I/O interface receives and transmits data in analog or digital form over communication links such as a serial link, local area network, wireless link, and parallel link. Optionally, a display, a keyboard and a pointing device (mouse) may also be connected to I/O bus. Alternatively, separate connections (separate buses) may be used for I/O interface, display, keyboard and pointing device. Programmable processing system may be preprogrammed or it may be programmed (and reprogrammed) by downloading a program from another source (e.g., a floppy disk, CD-ROM, or another computer). Each computer program is tangibly stored in a machine-readable storage media or device (e.g., program memory or magnetic disk) readable by a general or special purpose programmable computer, for configuring and controlling operation of a computer when the storage media or device is read by the computer to perform the procedures described herein. The inventive system may also be considered to be embodied in a computer-readable storage medium, configured with a computer program, where the storage medium so configured causes a computer to operate in a specific and predefined manner to perform the functions described herein. The invention has been described herein in considerable detail in order to comply with the patent Statutes and to provide those skilled in the art with the information needed to apply the novel principles and to construct and use such specialized components as are required.

The Miami Dolphins will have wide receiver Brian Hartline
and linebacker Karlos Dansby for today's matchup against the Jacksonville
Jaguars, but they'll be without wide receiver Davone Bess and linebacker Koa
Bess is dealing with a back injury that has caused him to
miss practice this week. The Dolphins ruled the wide receiver, who's caught 61
passes for 778 yards and one touchdown this season, out against the Jaguars.
Misi has also missed practice this week as he's recovering
from an ankle injury. Everyone else on Miami's injury report are listed as probable
to play today, including Dansby (biceps), Hartline (glute), safeties Chris
Clemons (ribs), Jimmy Wilson (hip) and Jonathan Amaya (neck), linebacker Austin
Spitler (ankle) and punter Brandon Fields (right knee).
Clemons and Wilson were both limited at practice earlier in
the week, but it appears they will be able to suit up against the Dolphins.
Randy Starks, who sat out earlier in the week due to non-football reasons, isn't
listed on the team's final injury report and should play.

Blog Post: Hiring for SEO: How to Find and Hire Someone with Little or No Experience
Fantastic stuff Ruth...
I have seen the entire distillate of your experience as a SEO manager here!!!
I recommend this article for all who hire in house SEO for their business because you have slapped to all who are still dealing with fishy practice of SEO. They denigrate the whole industry by sending junk mails like I will give you 5000 US visitors just for $5. And when people visit their link, they have described their selves as SEO expert!!! This is a big hazel, I just want to stop all these anti organic experts!!
Even I receive one or two twitter followers daily saying me I will send 5K Instagram followers.
I also favor enthusiastic newcomers and digital geeks from other industry. Its perfectly fine to hire SEO from other industry if you can find talent in them.
Recently I have read a report published by Linkedin, it says "Around 12% members from other industries hired by Internet Industry"

Fishing report: Fish hitting at Pymatuning Lake
TribLIVE Sports Videos
• At Pymatuning Lake, the walleye and crappie fishing have both been very good, according to reports. Walleyes were being caught in crawler harnesses and floating jigs tipped with a crawler, while the crappies were hitting jigs tipped with minnows.
• The fishing was slow at Mammoth Park this week, according to reports, though anglers were picking up some panfish and bullhead catfish.
• At Yough Dam, northern pike continue to provide some action, hitting on shiners as well as spinnerbaits. The walleye bite has been OK, and anglers have reportedly being doing well on panfish.
• On Loyalhanna Creek, anglers were still picking up trout this week, along with rock bass, smallmouth bass and the occasional panfish.
• Lake Erie has been difficult to fish in recent days because of high winds and waves, according to several reports. When anglers have been able to get out, they've been catching yellow perch in 35 to 40 feet of water off the mouth of Trout Run, according to one report. A few smallmouth bass have also been caught.
• Lake Arthur has been giving up good numbers of bass, according to reports. The crappie bite has been pretty good, too. There's been little word on walleye catches, though.
• At Shenango Lake, crappies have been hitting, but most have been on the smaller side. Minnows fished alone or on a jig have been taking most of the fish.
• Kooser Lake hasn't been getting much in the way of fishing pressure, but anglers have been getting a few trout there yet. Paste baits, maggots and wax worms have all taken fish.
• Walleyes and smallmouth bass were hitting well on the Allegheny River this past week, with most of the action occurring below the dams. Minnows were a top bait.
• At Lake Wilhelm, fishermen have been getting lots of crappies and bluegills fishing from shore, though most of the fish have been small so far. Jigs fished under a bobber have been the hot bait.
• Canonsburg Lake has been giving up some decent channel cats, as well as some trout, according to one report.

Money Funds Continue Euro Bank Exodus
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- U.S. Money Market Funds are continuing to decrease their exposure to European banks, according to the latest report from Fitch.
At the end of June - prior to the release of the results of stress tests on 91 European banks - the ten largest U.S. prime money market funds (MMFs) had reduced their total exposure to European banks by 8.7% compared with a month earlier.
"European bank exposure now represents 49.6% of total holdings of $698 billion within Fitch Ratings'sample. The share is down from 50.2% as of month-end May, which was based on total MMF holdings of $755 billion," the report reads.
Fitch analyst Viktoria Baklanova told TheStreet that further declines in European exposures are likely. "Confidence is one of the main factors for the U.S. money market funds. Therefore, we expect the funds to remain cautious and focused on liquidity in face of continuing volatility in credit spreads," she said earlier today.
According to the Fitch analysis, German bank exposure fell back from 6.3% to 5.5% of assets (or, a 19% decline on a dollar basis), while French bank exposure decreased from 14.8% to 14.7% of assets (or, an 8.2% decline on a dollar basis) over the same period. Although the most widely-held European banks have little exposure to Greek sovereign debt, there is significant exposure to the sovereign debt of other peripheral nations, which contains significant headline risk as the European sovereign debt crisis lingers. The trend of declining exposure to French bank debt in particular may be more pronounced at the end of July after all four French banks examined as part of the European stress tests - BNP, Société Générale, Crédit Agricole and BPCE - revealed high levels of sovereign debt exposure. Between them they held a total of ¿48.2bn of gross exposure to Italian sovereign debt, of which almost half was held by BNP Paribas. BNP owns BNL, the Italian bank. Crédit Agricole, which also has stakes in Italian banks, had ¿12.3bn of gross exposure to Italian sovereign debt.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

This page is dedicated to the short yet astonishing life and spirit of our great love Sabrina Seelig. She has touched our hearts deeper than any words can express. She has inspired us to reshape our lives and re-examine our sense of purpose.
This page is dedicated to the short yet astonishing life and spirit of our great love Sabrina Seelig. She has touched our hearts deeper than any words can express. She has also inspired us to reshape our lives and re-examine our sense of purpose.
In shock and disbelief, we are searching through a bounty of signs that she has left us.
The family and friends of Sabrina Seelig mourn the loss of their precious daughter and brilliant sister, a vibrant young woman who lived a life of 23 years to the absolute fullest with great spirit and verve. She left us on June 5, 2007 in New York City, where she was an enthusiastic full-time student of Classic Literature at Hunter College, and where she was a passionate writer and active volunteer for a leading arts and culture newspaper in Brooklyn called The Brooklyn Rail. While in New York, Sabrina also worked two days a week as a tutor at the Isaacs Neighborhood Center in Harlem where she shared her great love of books and literature with high school students. Before moving to New York, Sabrina studied at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts.
Sabrina graduated with honors from Camden Hills High School in 2000, where she was active in the theatre program both as a director of plays and as an actor. While in high school, Sabrina founded a theatre company called P.Y.A.M (Professional Young Actors of Maine). She and many close friends wrote and produced a number of plays performed at venues including Watts Hall in Thomaston, Lincoln Street Center for the Arts in Rockland and at an improvised store front on Main Street in Rockland. At the age of 13, Sabrina founded Lulu's Ice Cream Stand which was built with the help of her father and sister Ashley behind the Second Read next to Café Miranda. There she spent many summers selling ice cream, writing plays and poems, reading books and listening to Jazz recordings on her cherished black box record player.
This young romantic was also an avid traveler seeking the experience of
living in as many diverse cultures as possible. Before attending college she traveled for several months throughout Europe, living in work hostels in Italy, ending up in Prague where she spent most of her time writing poetry and short stories. Last year Sabrina traveled with her boyfriend to Cambodia, Burma and Thailand. Inspired by the people and culture there, Sabrina recently arranged a return trip to Thailand this fall where she would have been part of the Burma Volunteer Project working with Pro-Democracy Burmese groups teaching English to young people.
Sabrina Seelig connected with and inspired people wherever she lived, and that was revealed around her hospital bed at Cornell in New York where there were day and night vigils throughout her final hours. There were often as many as 24 friends at a time holding hands in a circle, praying and singing to Sabrina in her I.C.U. unit. Her friends came to visit, traveling from as faraway as Cairo, Egypt, Portland, Oregon, Los Angeles, California and from up and down the East coast. Amazing stories were shared continuously among her friends and family, about her life and her contributions to the lives of everyone around her. Sabrina loved her time in New York City, and she also felt a deep affection for the state of Maine where the people and the place
played such a significant part in her life.
