The mathematical model for airline network seat inventory control problem is usually investigated to maximize the total revenue under some constraints such as capacities and demands. This paper presents a chance-constrained programming model based on the uncertainty theory for network revenue management, in which the fares and the demands are both uncertain variables rather than random variables. The uncertain programming model can be transformed into a deterministic form by taking expected value on objective function and confidence level on the constraint functions. Based on the strategy of nested booking limits, a solution method of booking control is developed to solve the problem. Finally, this paper gives a numerical example to show that the method is practical and efficient.
1. Introduction
After the deregulations in the airline industry, the revenue management techniques have become indispensable for airline seat inventory control. A central problem in airline revenue management is determining optimal decision rules for sequentially accepting or denying itinerary requests. So it is necessary to develop mathematical models to determine complex booking control strategies.
The optimization methods on seat inventory control problem with multiple-fare classes can be separated into the single-leg optimization method and the network optimization method. Based on the optimized frequency, each optimization method can be sorted out the static method and the dynamic method. In brief, the dynamic nature of the arrivals of the requests over time is not explicitly considered in the static method, whereas the mutability in the demand is taken into account in the dynamic method as the end of the reservation period approaches and the seat capacity diminishes.
The single-leg optimization method firstly appeared in the research of Littlewood [1]. He studied a seat inventory control problem with two-fare classes on a single leg and proposed a marginal seat revenue rule applied into a two-price, single-leg model. Belobaba [2, 3] extended this idea to a multiclass problem and introduced the expected marginal seat revenue heuristic for the general approach. Wollmer [4], Brumelle and McGill [5], and Robinson [6] further studied the single-leg problem with multiple-fare classes. They developed algorithms to find the optimal booking control policy under the assumption that the probability distributions of the demands for different fare classes were known. Lee and Hersh [7] developed a discrete-time dynamic programming model to find an optimal booking control policy without requiring any assumptions about the arrival mode for the manifold booking classes. Liang [8] proposed a continuous-time, stochastic, dynamic programming model and showed that a threshold control policy was optimal. Feng and Xiao [9] presented a stochastic control model to dynamically tackle with seat inventory control problem.
For the network optimization method, Glover et al. [10] initially described a minimum cost network flow formulation with deterministic demand without focusing on the stochastic elements. After that, a solution method for the sequential allocation of seats under the assumption of stochastic demand was provided by Wang [11]. Wollmer [12] proposed a linear programming model that considered stochastic demand. Dror et al. [13] proposed a similar deterministic network minimum cost flow formulation that allowed for cancellations as deterministic losses on arcs in the network. Curry [14] developed a combined mathematical model for a multiclass seat inventory control problem. Williamson [15] studied two network-based mathematical programming models. The first model incorporated probabilistic demand and the second model simplified the problem by substituting stochastic demand by its expectation. Wong et al. [16] applied nesting techniques into a multiclass seat inventory control problem. de Boer et al. [17] proposed stochastic linear programming for network revenue management and developed the nesting technique of Williamsion. Bertsimas and De Boer [18] and van Ryzin and Vulcano [19] used simulation-based optimization methods that also investigated nesting over the network. Cooper and Homem-De-Mello [20] proposed a decomposition method combining mathematical programming methods and Markov decision process. Recently, İlker Birbil et al. [21] proposed a framework for solving airline revenue management problems on large networks.
With the fast development of civil aviation industry, many airlines often create new routes. Due to lacking reliable data and accurate information, the methods in the literature above become invalid for these new routes. On the other hand, when unconventional sudden events such as war, atrocious weather, and earthquake, happen, the cumulative data of computer reservation system is no longer trustworthy. There are some limitations when the traditional stochastic models above deal with such problems at this situation. In the two cases, we have to invite some experts to evaluate their degree of belief that each event will occur. However, humans tend to overweigh unlikely events (Kahnema and Tversky [22]); thus, the degree of belief may have a much larger range than the real frequency. In this situation, if we insist on dealing with the degree of belief using the probability theory, some counterintuitive results will be obtained (Liu [23]). In revenue management of the above two cases, as we stated before, the domain experts invited are likely to overrate the market demand on the new routes and underestimate the market demand under the circumstances of unconventional sudden events. If the belief degree of the market demand is treated as probability, we have no choice but to increase the capacity on the new routes and reduce the capacity under the circumstances of unconventional sudden events. This will cause great losses in revenue for airlines. This conclusion seems unacceptable and then the belief degree cannot be treated as probability.
In order to deal with the experts' degree of belief, the uncertainty theory was founded by Liu [24] and refined by Liu [25] in 2013. Many researchers have contributed to this area. The uncertainty theory has been applied to uncertain programming, uncertain risk analysis, uncertain game, uncertain inference, uncertain logic, uncertain finance, and uncertain optimal control (Liu [25]). Nowadays, the uncertainty theory has become a branch of axiomatic mathematics to model human uncertainty (Liu [26]).
Depending on the analysis as mentioned above, we think that it is necessary to apply the uncertainty theory as a basic approach to model the uncertainty in the revenue management of the two cases above. In this paper, we propose the chance-constrained programming model based on the uncertainty theory to deal with the uncertain factors. The rest of this paper is structured as follows. In Section 2, some basic concepts and properties in uncertainty theory used throughout this paper are introduced. In Section 3, an uncertain programming model is constructed. According to inverse uncertainty distribution, the model can be transformed to its deterministic form. In Section 4, we present a solution method of booking control on the basis of the strategy of nested booking limits. After that, a numerical example is given in Section 5. At last, a brief summary is presented in Section 6.
2. Preliminaries
In this section, some basic definitions and arithmetic operations of uncertainty theory needed throughout this paper are presented.
Definition 1 (Liu [24]). Let be a nonempty set and a -algebra over . Each element is called an event. The set function is called an uncertain measure if it satisfies the following four axioms:
Axiom 1 (Normality). ;
Axiom 2 (Monotonicity). whenever ;
Axiom 3 (Self-Duality). for any event ;
Axiom 4 (Countable Subadditivity). For every countable sequence of events , we have
Definition 2 (Liu [24]). Let be a nonempty set, a -algebra over , and an uncertain measure. Then the triple is called on uncertainty space.
Definition 3 (Liu [24]). An uncertain variable is a measurable function from an uncertainty space to the set of real numbers; that is, for any Borel set of real numbers, the set is an event.
For a sequence of uncertainty variables and a measurable function , Liu [24] proved that defined as , is also an uncertain variable. In order to describe an uncertain variable, a concept of uncertainty distribution is introduced as follows.
Definition 4 (Liu [24]). The uncertainty distribution of an uncertain variable is defined by for any real number .
Peng and Iwamura [27] proved that a function is an uncertainty distribution if and only if it is a monotone increasing function except for or . The inverse function is called the inverse uncertainty distribution of . Inverse uncertainty distribution is an important tool in the operation of uncertain variables.
Theorem 5 (Liu [24]). Let be independent uncertain variables with regular uncertainty distributions , respectively. If is strictly increasing with respect to and strictly decreasing with respect to , then is an uncertain variable with inverse uncertainty distribution
Expected value is the average of an uncertain variable in the sense of uncertain measure. It is an important index to rank uncertain variables.
Definition 6 (Liu [24]). Let be an uncertain variable. Then the expected value of is defined by provided that at least one of the two integrals is finite.
In order to calculate the expected value via inverse uncertainty distribution, Liu and Ha [28] proved that under the condition described in Theorem 5. Generally, the expected value operator has no linearity property for arbitrary uncertain variables. But, for independent uncertain variables and with finite expected values, we have for any real numbers and .
3. Uncertain Programming Model for Multiple-Leg Network Seat Inventory Control
3.1. Problem Description
Because an airline wants to maximize revenue from the whole network, the researchers on this field focus on the network-based models now. Airlines usually provide thousands of such combinations of origin, destination and fare class (ODF). Therefore determining a comprehensive booking control strategy for the entire network is crucially important.
The objective of network seat inventory control is to maximize the airline's expected revenue from its supply of ODF combinations. Each ODF in the network is constitutive of one or more flight legs. The limited capacity on each flight leg has to be made full use of in the most profitable way. This can be achieved by limiting the number of seats available to the less lucrative classes. So the problem is to allocate all seats of each flight leg to the related ODF in the most profitable way. Due to its economic importance in the airline, the problem has been extensively studied.
In this paper, the network seat inventory control problem will be modeled by the chance-constrained programming based on the uncertainty theory in which the fare and the demand of each ODF are assumed to be uncertain variables with given uncertainty distributions.
3.2. Model Development
At first, we introduce the following notations to represent the mathematical formulation throughout the remainder of this paper:: the number of seats reserved for each separate ODF;: the total number of flight legs in the ODF network;: the set of ODF combinations available on flight leg;: the seat capacity on leg ;: the deterministic aggregated demand for each ODF;: the fare required for an ODF.
In order to facilitate the analysis, we make some reasonable assumptions as follows.(a)The flight market demand exceeds its capacity supply.(b)Overbooking is not considered by the model discussed here.
Next, based on the analysis of the decision making process, the general problem is formulated as follows [15]:
In the above model, the quantities and are all assumed to be crisp numbers. However, when there are new routes created by the airlines or the emergency takes place sometimes, the quantities generally are not fixed but obtained from experience evaluation or expert knowledge. In this case, we may assume the quantities are uncertain variables. Then the model (9) is only a conceptual model rather than a mathematical model because there does not exist a natural ordership in an uncertain world. Here we take expected value criterion on the objective function and confidence level on the constraint functions (Liu [25]). Then the model (9) turns into the following mathematical model: where are some predetermined confidence levels for all ODF.
In practical applications, the uncertainty distributions of uncertain variables and and the confidence levels are determined by linear interpolation method, the principle of least squares, the method of moments, and the Delphi method from expert's experimental data (Liu [25]). How do we obtain expert's experimental data? Liu [25] proposed a questionnaire survey for collecting expert's experimental data. In this paper, we assume that the uncertainty distributions of uncertain variables and and the confidence levels have been determined.
In order to solve model (10), firstly, we introduce two corollaries which were from the uncertainty theory (Liu [25]).
Corollary 7. Assume the objective function is strictly increasing with respect to and strictly decreasing with respect to . If are independent uncertain variables with uncertainty distributions , respectively, then the expected objective function is equal to
Corollary 8. Assume the constraint function is strictly increasing with respect to and strictly decreasing with respect to . If are independent uncertain variables with uncertainty distributions , respectively, then the chance constrain holds if and only if
Secondly, the next theorem shows that the model (10) is equivalent to a deterministic model, for which many efficient algorithms have been designed.
Theorem 9. Assume that and are independent uncertain variables with uncertainty distributions and . Then the model (10) is equivalent to the following model:
Proof. The function is strictly increasing with respect to and are independent uncertain variables with uncertainty distributions , respectively. By using Corollary 7, we obtain
Since that
is equivalent to
and the function is strictly decreasing with respect to with uncertainty distribution , it follows from Corollary 8 that we have
that is,
The theorem is thus verified.
4. Solution Method of Booking Control
4.1. The Strategy of Nested Booking Limits
In the model (14), we use to denote and to denote . Then the relaxation of the model (14) is
The whole booking time should be partitioned into a few time periods of reservation; for example, a day is a time period of reservation. In order to facilitate the analysis, we describe the model (20) in the form of the matrix and the vector considering the time period of reservation. For this, we introduce the following notations: : the total number of flight legs in the ODF network; : index for set of flight legs; : the total number of the ODF; : index for set of the ODF; : index for the time period of reservation; : the seat capacity on each flight leg in the reservation time period ; : the corresponding for each separate ODF in the reservation time period ; : the corresponding for each separate ODF in the reservation time period ; : the number of seats reserved for each separate ODF in the reservation time period ; : the matrix denotation of flight legs that each ODF travels, where if the ODF travels the flight leg , then , otherwise ; : the th column of the matrix , denoting the flight legs that the ODF travels.
The model (20) is described as follows in the form of the matrix and the vector:
The dual problem of the model above can be described as follows: where denotes the shadow prices corresponding to each flight leg and denotes the shadow prices corresponding to each .
Bid price control method is one of the prevalent methods of network seat inventory control. The bid price of each ODF is equal to the sum of shadow prices of the flight legs that the ODF crosses. A booking request for a passenger from the ODF is rejected if the bid price of the ODF exceeds the fare for the ODF and is accepted otherwise. Although bid price control method has been used in the actual operations of the airlines, it has a few shortcomings as follows.(a)Each ODF's contribution to network revenue is not considered in the bid price control method.(b)When calculating shadow prices using the relevant models, the solution of the model may be degenerate solution. This will cause the multiple bid prices of an ODF.(c)The fares of most of the passengers on the flight just exceed the bid prices so that airlines suffer losses.
For this, we present a nesting control method based on the network contribution value for the above uncertain programming model.
First, we define an ODF's net contribution value to network revenue in the reservation time period as the expected fare for the ODF in the reservation time period minus the opportunity cost of the ODF in the reservation time period , that is, where denotes the net contribution value of the ODF to network revenue in the reservation time period and denotes the opportunity cost of the ODF in the reservation time period .
The opportunity cost of the ODF in the reservation time period is calculated based on the DLP model as follows: for .
Now the opportunity cost of the ODF in the reservation time period is known, so we figure up the net contribution value of the ODF to network revenue in the reservation time period . However, the solution of the model DLP may be degenerate solution and this phenomenon will cause multiple net contribution values of the ODF to network revenue. In this case, we will use the following method to calculate the net contribution value of the ODF to network revenue in the reservation time period . If , then . Otherwise, where denotes a large enough number.
Finally, we rank the ODF on the basis of their net contribution value to network revenue to determine the nesting level. If some of the ODFs have the same net contribution value to network revenue, we can rank the ODF on the basis of their expected fare.
4.2. The Algorithm for Nested ODF-Based Booking Control
Every time a booking request arrives for any ODF in the network, a quick decision should be made whether or not to accept the request. We have to specify a booking control strategy for the decision. We propose the algorithm for nested ODF-based booking control.
The notations used in the following algorithm are given as below: : the number of seats reserved for each separate ODF in the reservation time period after ranking the elements of according to the nesting level; : seat protect level for each ranked ODF in the reservation time period ; : the set of flight legs that the th ODF travels; : the number of booking requests for the ranked ODF that have already been accepted in the reservation time period ; : seat booking limit for the th ODF.
The heuristic algorithm for nested ODF-based booking control is as follows.
Step 1. Calculate each ODF's net contribution value to network revenue in the reservation time period and determine the nesting level. By solving the model above, we can obtain .
Step 2. Determine seat protect level for each ODF. According to ranking results of Step 1, we rank the elements of and obtain . Seat protect level is determined as .
Step 3. At the beginning of the reservation time period , it is obvious that . Determine seat booking limit for the ranked ODF as follows.
For the first ODF,
for the th ODF , on the flight leg , the total number of the seats protected for the lower level ODF than the th ODF is , where the th ODF travels the flight leg and the number of the seats available on the flight leg is . So we have
Step 4. If , then accept the booking request, let ; if , then decline the request.
Step 1 determines the nesting level for each separate ODF; Step 2 determines seat protect level for each ranked ODF; Step 3 determines seat booking limit for the ranked ODF; Step 4 develops the standard of accepting or rejecting the booking requests.
When entering the next reservation time period, let and then go into the algorithm above.
5. Numerical Experiment
In this section, we apply the model and the algorithm of the former two sections to airline seat inventory control and give an optimal policy.
An airline prepares to open a new route, which is from A to C through B. So there are two legs and three segments. Every segment has two fare classes with Y and T, so there are six ODFs. These are shown in Figure 1.
That is,
Furthermore, there are 140 seats available in the flight and the booking period is partitioned into 11 time intervals.
In order to simulate the booking process, some simulated reservation data about each time interval are given in Table 1.
When , there is .
According to experts' experience, the demands for ABY, ABT, BCY, BCT, ACY, and ACT follow a normal uncertainty distribution , , respectively. The fare for ABY, ABT, BCY, BCT, ACY, and ACT follows a normal uncertainty distribution , , respectively. Tables 2 and 3 give the value of the quantities.
Note that the normal uncertain variable has an expected value and an inverse uncertainty distribution
Furthermore, .
According to Section 3 and Section 4, the result of the seat inventory control for is obtained in Table 4.
When , the results of the seat inventory control are listed in Appendix.
Finally, the result of simulation is listed as Table 5.
The numerical experiment shows that the computation time of the algorithm is 0.4–0.8 seconds.
We use bid price control method for the above simulation data and the result is listed as Table 6.
Comparing Tables 5 and 6, we can see that the total expected revenue using the bid price control method is 171120 RMB, while the total expected revenue using the proposed method in this paper is 172800 RMB. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed method in this paper is effective for improving the airline's revenue.
6. Conclusions
To consider network revenue management problem under conditions of new routes and unconventional sudden events, we established an uncertain programming model. Based on the strategy of nested booking limits, a heuristic algorithm for booking control was developed. Numerical test was performed to evaluate the model and the solution algorithm. The test results show that the model and the solution are all effective. There are some suggestions for future research:(i)the impact of the nesting heuristics on total revenue;(ii)more complex hub-spoke network;(iii)considering dynamic factors such as the arrival order of the requests;(iv)integrated uncertain and stochastic model.

If you're wondering what to do on a cold night, while snuggling next to a warm fire ... may we suggest, reading? Of course, in this scenario, all electricity is out and video games are no option for you. So, if that's what it takes for you to pick up a book (we kid!), you might be interested in something with a little video game flavor.
Coming to bookstores on July 28 is Gears of War: Jacinto's Remnant -- from best-selling sci-fi author Karen Traviss (of Star Wars novel fame!).
Jacinto's Remnant begins moments following the end of Gears of War 2. It's really hard to tell you what the novel is about without spoiling the ending of 2008's Epic Xbox 360-exclusive, but from what we've seen so far, the book looks to paint a picture of humanity's struggle for survival against a new kind of enemy -- itself. Sounds interesting, so far. Excited?

Vietnam Online Publishes Latest Guide to Transportation in Vietnam
VietnamOnline.com, the prime information gateway to travel information, weather updates and cultural events in Vietnam, recently published one of the most comprehensive guides to transportation in Vietnam, including air, rail, bus and motorbike travel.
(PRWEB) November 14, 2011
VietnamOnline.com, the prime information gateway to travel information, weather updates and cultural events in Vietnam, recently published one of the most comprehensive guides to transportation in Vietnam, including air, rail, bus and motorbike travel.
When travelers first draft their travel plan for a country, the major questions that come to mind are how to get there, how to move from one city to another, how much the ticket costs, which is the fastest way. Such a large number of queries may confuse trip planners, and even make the journey a little off-putting before it even actually takes place. The huge amount of information on the internet makes the matter worse â" travelers then need to ask which source to trust and how updated they are.
Realizing the importance of information on transportation, Vietnam Online has built a whole separate section on Vietnam transportation. The section is divided into category corresponding with means of transportation: air, rail, bus, car, motorbike, and border crossing. Inside each of these categories are travel guide and tips that can answer almost any questions of travelers.
The page on Vietnam-Cambodia border crossing, for example, includes a map of available border gates, and bus company contacts in case travelers want to get from Vietnam to its Southwestern neighbor. The page on airport guide, on the other hand, provides detailed description for all airports in Vietnam such as Hanoi Airport and Ho Chi Minh City Airport. These two are also the main entry gateways into Vietnam by most foreigners. Last but not least, there are also articles about bus fares and Vietnam train schedule, which list every single route of coach and train travel in Vietnam.
Without doubt, the newly introduced section about Vietnam transportation is of immense importance to Vietnam travelers in the presence and foreseeable future. Based in Vietnam, Vietnam Online is able to make contacts with corresponding authorities and update the information frequently, making it among the most trusted resources online.

Innotrac Shares Findings Of April ECommerce Benchmarking Study
ATLANTA, June 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Innotrac Corporation (NASDAQ: INOC), a best-of-breed commerce provider integrating digital technology, fulfillment, and contact center solutions to support global brands, today announced summary results of its latest SmartHub® eCommerce benchmark analysis, which was based on a sampling of orders placed in April of this year.
SmartHub® is Innotrac's research and strategy layer, providing clients and partners with consultative services, including end-to-end intelligence of the online retail purchase cycle. From the pre-order site experience all the way through the final steps of the returns process, Innotrac's 56-point methodology analyzes each important customer touch point, charting retailers on everything from the checkout experience, to evaluation of the packaging material used in shipment.
"Online retailers are faced with a constantly changing landscape," said Marsha Chulick, Vice President of Business Development at Innotrac. "There's been a lot of buzz over the last year around free shipping and free returns. With SmartHub®, we're able to evaluate the trends and give our clients the actual data regarding new policies they may be considering."
SmartHub® evaluated 100 leading U.S. e-retailers across six different product categories in April for its latest report, SmartHub® release 2.1. Among the findings:
- Nearly half of merchants surveyed charged between $6 - $11 for standard shipping, when free shipping offers or promotions did not apply.
- 86.74% of merchants surveyed promised delivery within 8 business days, with the bulk of that mix (68.38%) falling within the 4-7 day range; however, 83.5% of merchants were actually able to deliver within three days.
- Nearly 7 in 10 merchants require the customer to pay upfront for returns, thus putting the onus on the consumer to handle the details themselves despite heightened awareness of returns policies.

In reality about 75 percent of the Congress breaks their oath to uphold the Constitution.
And I'm being quite generous with that.

Sources: J.J. Barea to join Wolves
Free-agent guard J.J. Barea has reached an agreement in principle with the Minnesota Timberwolves on a four-year contract worth an estimated $19 million, according to sources with knowledge of the deal.
NBA.com reported that the Wolves and Barea were finalizing the deal Monday.
Barea joins Tyson Chandler and Caron Butler as prime free agents to leave the Dallas Mavericks in the wake of their championship, but Dallas has focused exclusively on acquiring players on one-year deals to preserve maximum salary-cap space for the summer of 2012.
The speedy guard from Puerto Rico drew interest from several teams, most notably the New York Knicks, after emerging as a playoff difference-maker. But none of the other suitors could match the sort of offer that the under-the-salary-cap Timberwolves could present.
"I'm happy that he's able to experience that kind of a payday because what he did here the last three years has earned him that," Mavs coach Rick Carlisle said. "And he'll be a terrific player for the Timberwolves.
"Not only is he a really good basketball player, but he's got a great team vibe and he's a great chemistry player, too. The kind of intangibles he has will be something that will really help the development of their younger guys."
Barea will join a backcourt rotation in Minnesota most notably headlined by Spanish rookie Ricky Rubio, who will make his NBA debut this season after spending the last two playing for Barcelona in his native country.
The Wolves selected Rubio with the fifth overall pick in the 2009 draft, then signed him to his first NBA contract on May 31, 2011. The Wolves also have Luke Ridnour at point guard but have long believed privately that Ridnour is easily traded when they're ready to move him.
Barea expressed disappointment last week over the dimming prospect of returning to the Mavs.
"I wasn't expecting it to be like this after everything we did, after my five years here, after what we did last year," Barea said on ESPN 103.3's Ben and Skin Show. "Now you've just got to go with it and things happen."
Barea said the Mavericks had refused to offer deals that went beyond one year.
Barea had said the Mavericks' plan to possibly sign one of the free-agent superstars expected to be available next summer had not been clearly articulated to him or his agent, Dan Fegan.
"We don't understand what's going on with the management here in Dallas," Barea said. "I don't know what their plans (are). Their plan is not to bring me back, not to bring Tyson back, so we'll see what happens."
Barea was a key player in Dallas' championship run, hHe had 22 points and eight assists in the clinching victory over the Lakers, and tallied 32 points and 10 assists in the final two victories over the Heat in the NBA finals.

Blog » ESPN Dallas »
Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman declined to address Barea on Tuesday night after practice, but All-Star forward Kevin Love was ready to welcome the Puerto Rican with open arms. The Wolves have one of the youngest rosters in the league and are sorely in need of veterans to help set a tempo in practice and help these young pups mature.
Minnesota has targeted adding veteran help at center and shooting guard, and it still may look to address those needs. But bringing in a playoff-proven performer at any position would be a welcome addition.
"He'll fit well," Love said. "He's a veteran guy who comes from a championship team. Obviously he doesn't have the size and the length that we particularly would hope for. But I think he could help out Ricky as well and I think that's what we're looking for now more than anything is veteran leadership."
The Timberwolves also agreed to terms with second-round draft pick Malcolm Lee on a three-year deal. The shooting guard from UCLA was held out of practice on Monday because he had not yet signed the agreement, but the contract has been submitted to the league and he will likely return to practice on Tuesday.

Nevada Government Resale Sales and Use Tax, Question 7 (1998)
The Nevada Government Resale Sales and Use Tax Question, also known as Question 7, was a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment on the November 3, 1998 election ballot in Nevada, where it was defeated.
Election results
Question 7 (Government Resale Sales and Use Tax) | ||||
Result | Votes | Percentage | ||
No | 227,059 | 57.9% | ||
Yes | 164,780 | 42.1% |
Official results via: Nevada Legislative Counsel Bureau - Research Division
Text of measure
The language that appeared on the ballot:
- Shall the Sales and Use Tax Act of 1955 be amended to impose the tax on sales and use tax upon items purchased by this state or by a local government or local governmental agency for resale to the public by the governmental entity?[1]
The language that appeared in the voter's guide:
- The proposed amendment to the Sales and Use Tax Act of 1955 would impose the tax upon the gross receipts from the sale of tangible personal property purchased by the state or a local government or local governmental agency for resale to the public.
- State law requires that private businesses collect sales taxes on items that they sell to the public. Some state agencies and local governments have shops or restaurants in which they also sell items to the public. These government-owned establishments, often operated in connection with public museums, ski slopes, or beaches, are not required to collect sales taxes from their customers. The proposed amendment to the Sales and Use Tax Act of 1955 would require that the state and local governments collect sales taxes on items that they purchase for resale to the public.[1]
Note to voters
- Ballot Question No.7 relate to Nevada's sales tax. It is important that you understand this tax and the process by which it may be changed. As noted below, only a portion of this tax may be changed by you, the voter, pursuant to the attached ballot questions.
- Nevada's statewide sales tax consists of three separate parts levied at different rates on the sale and use of tangible personal property in the state. The current statewide combined rate is 6.50 percent. In addition to these three parts, each country also may impose additional taxes, up to a combine rate of 1 percent, subject to the approval of the voters or governing body in that country. These additional taxes have, in seven counties, increased the rate of the sales tax above the 6.5 percent rate imposed statewide.
- The tax includes:
Tax Rate 1. The State Sales and Use Tax 2.00 percent 2. The Local School Support Tax (LSST) 2.25 percent 3. The City/County Relief Tax (CCRT) 2.25 percent 4. Optional local taxes--not more than 1.00 percent
- The State Sales and Use Tax may be amended or repealed only with the approval of the voters. The Local School Support Tax (LSST) and the City/County Relief Tax (CCRT) may be amended or repealed by the Legislature without the approval of the voters.
- By your "Yes" vote, Question No.7 would impose the state 2.00-percent rate, and all of the other components of the sales and use tax would then be imposed by statute.[1]

Sanders, Brown may both play against the Ravens
View From The Press Box
http://blog.triblive.com/view-from-t...ss+Box+Blog%29 Sanders, Brown may both play against the Ravens November 30th, 2010 Battling for a hat. Two dogs and only one bone. That is how Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has framed, as only he can, the ongoing competition between rookie wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown for one game day roster spot. The competition took a somewhat unexpected turn two weeks ago when both dressed against the Raiders. With Brown apparently healthy again after a knee problem sidelined him last week, Tomlin strongly hinted the two will play Sunday night in Baltimore. There may well be two dogs and two bones, he said with a smile Tuesday at his weekly news conference. If that happens, it will be interesting to see if Tomlin dresses six wide receivers as he did against the Raiders -- or if Arnaz Battle or even Antwaan Randle El is inactive for the crucial AFC North game. Battle has been a key special teams player but he has yet to catch a pass this season. Randle El and Sanders have been sharing the role of No. 3 wide receiver, but he former has not caught a pass in the Steelers last two games and is becoming less and less of a factor in the end zone. It is hard to imagine the Steelers only dressing seven offensive linemen Sunday as they did against the Raiders. Steelers-Ravens games are always brutal, hard-hitting affairs, and the line has gotten too beat up this season to think that Tomlin would go into the crucial AFC North contest with only two reserve linemen. With cornerback Bryant McFaddens hamstring also a concern, Tomlin probably wont try to get by with one less defensive back against the Ravens. One possibility if Tomlin does dress six wide receivers is sitting Matt Spaeth another week and using guard Trai Essex as an extra tight end. Spaeth is still recovering from a concussion, and the Steelers had success running the ball against the Bills when they played Essex at tight end. |

The Digital Skeptic: Annual Reports Show Year to Forget for Info-Age Giants
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- If the yearly annual statements from Google (GOOG), Facebook (FB - Get Report) and Amazon (AMZN - Get Report) are any indication, this will be a year to forget.
American equities are wondering in an unfamiliar hill. A real -- if slight -- rally is afoot, based as much as anything on optimistic annual sales and earnings from the three companies, each of which posted double-digit revenue growth for the full year. Shell-shocked investors then poked their noses out of their Groundhog Day holes and realized the Dow might actually be comfortable with 14,000.
I was stunned.
You should know, 10-K annual report data is what us investor geezers live for. Aside from full-year performance being what matters, there's none of the 10-Q quarterly earnings bogosity. Instead, the 519-year-old financial liturgy of presenting results in comparable tabular form is continued so, as Father Luca Pacioli first did in 1494, investors can soberly compare the balance sheets -- the income statements; statements of cash flow came much later -- for any company.
That gives a sense if those numbers match the larger story the company is trying to tell. So huddle up and let's take a throwback walking tour of the annual income statements for our "Big Information Three." Google gone wildIt's Google's economy right? So let's start with this Mountain View, Calif., Web services giant. The company was not shy in bragging about revenues gone wild for a stunning 36% increase in sales -- to a world-beating $50.1 billion. "Not a bad achievement in just a decade and a half," was CEO's Larry Page's scrubbed, investor relations-ready line. Even more remarkable for an information age company, there was more real earnings, rather than less, in 2012. Bottom-line net income rose a healthy 10.3%, to $10.7 billion for the 2012 period. Investors ignored the 43% increase in total costs and expenses for the year and off the stock went for say an 8 percentish bull ride. Digital-age mission accomplished, right? Well, except when you compare that with the annual income statement story told by the other members of our information-age trio.

Highest paid players by position
Includes prorated signing bonuses.
http://c-n.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article...702200318/1011 TO has a rather interesting number. |
A little surprising that the Skins only have 1 player on that entire list which shows the top 10 player earnings for every position.
Of all the Packers on any list; Bubba is most useless
I cannot believe Warrick Dunn makes more money, more cap charge, than Brian Westbrook. He had better take a pay cut!
Robertson is also set to make the second most money amongst all defensive players. trailing the DPOY by about 50k |
Re: Highest paid players by position
Packers have 4 with the most surprising being that Ryan Pickett is #5 on the DT list.
Deon Grant, eh?
yech. |
Really interesting stuff...Dwayne Robertson makes almost three million more per year than any other DT in the league.
That makes me happy. We don't have any players up there that shouldn't be up there.
Leonard Davis? Yeesh. I only saw one or two Vikings.
Not horrible, Strahan is to be expected, Toomer is a canidate to restructure, Shockey is the 3rd highest paid for arguably the 3rd best TE.
Dan Morgan is getting paid more than Urlacher, now that just ain't right. And according to this, RMJ is the highest paid player on our defense. :shock: :lol:
Ah you gotta love the NFL sometimes. Btw, how is Rod Smith getting 7 mil per year? :shock: |
How is Adam Vinnateri not on the list for kickers?
Must be the way his contract is structured
Olin Kreutz is arguably the best center in the league, but NO center deserves over $10 Mil a year. No lineman that isn't a LT should be paid that much, let alone a center.
I'm just glad the Raiders are getting the most bang for their buck out of Moss and Jordan.... :roll:
Olindo Mare, Miami: $2,321,181 sooo needs to be cut. |
why isn't Ed Reed on the list for Safeties?
the thing that sticks out to me (prolly cuz i am steelers fan) but troy p. isn't in the top 10 when only 2 of the safties in the top 10 or even on the same level as him ( b-dawk and sean taylor)
This is also the same reason Amani Toomer is in the top 10 of WRs. He is in his second to last year of his multi year contract. His base salary figure is high. He is a prime candidate to restructure. |
I'm going to put this in bold so people notice.
This list is how much these players made this year, not the average amount they make every year, or how much they count against the cap Therefore, while Olin Kruetz made 10 million this year, that's because he signed a contract extension during the season that gave him a large signing bonus. He is by no means the #2 best paid offensive lineman in the NFL. |

Preheat grill to medium-high. Cut 4 (12-inch) squares of aluminum foil.
Evenly sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and place each piece in center of a foil square. Evenly spoon sun-dried tomatoes, chilies, and corn over each chicken breast. Sprinkle cumin and chili powder evenly over vegetables. Wrap foil securely, leaving room for steam to circulate, and seal edges tightly.
Place packets on grill, close grill cover, and cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
Open packets carefully, as steam may be released. Sprinkle with cheese and continue to cook 1 to 2 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Navigating Black Friday With Your Android Smartphone
Posted By Contributor On November 18, 2011 @ 8:41 pm In Frugality | 1 Comment
Black Friday is nearly upon us. It's the one day in the year where you can find outrageous deals on cell phones [1], clothing, furniture, and just about anything else you'd ever want to buy. The prospect of the busiest shopping day of the year is intimidating if not outright [2] terrifying, and most are content to sleep in and eat Thanksgiving leftovers rather than brave psychotic shoppers and endless lines. But for dedicated shoppers, the promise of a bargain is too tempting to pass up. Android users already know that a smartphone is a valuable shopping assistant, but you can get even more out of Black Friday with the help of some specialty apps.
First up is an app that lives up to its name. The Black Friday app [3] gives you a peak at all the local Black Friday bargains that retailers have made public. Even more appealing are the "leaked" deals; unofficial and rumored super deals that aren't actively promoted by retailers. Whether or not these "leaked" deals are merely a marketing gimmick (hint: they are) doesn't mean that you still can't save loads of money by taking advantage of them. The Black Friday app's other draw is its social component, letting you share and discuss deals with other shopping fanatics through Twitter and Facebook.
Another aptly named app, TGI Black Friday posts local and online deals in a simple, easy to read list that is constantly updated, hooking you in with the possibility of a perfect bargain just around the corner. This app posts coupons that will appear in your local paper early, giving you a head start when you plan your Black Friday strategy. You can even use this app to send printable .pdf coupons straight to your e-mail. When used in conjunction with the Black Friday App, TGI Black Friday [4] will ensure that no deal slips past your radar.
With all the discounts that go on during Black Friday, it's inevitable that some unscrupulous retailers will try to scam you with fraudulent deals. Be wary of "deals" that are the same, or even more, than the normal price. Having a trusty barcode scanner is the best way to see if a bargain is the real deal (pun intended). There's many good barcode scanners to choose from, but Redlaser [5] is better than most, giving you instant price comparisons from major retailers like eBay, Amazon, and Best Buy.
Another trick to watch out for is retailers who make deliberately complicated discounts to make it hard to figure out exactly what kind of value you're getting. Download Discount Calculator [6] for free. Just enter the original price and use a simple slider bar to determine how much you're actually saving in simple dollar amounts.
Have you ever dreamed of actually making money while you shop? No, it's not just a wild fantasy. Companies often employ what are known as mystery shoppers, undercover customers whose job it is to anonymously test how friendly and helpful a store's staff is. Companies are especially prone to using mystery shoppers on Black Friday in order to see how staff responds under the pressure of the busiest shopping day. Shop Until You Drop [7] provides a list of available mystery shopper gigs. Download it if you think you have what it takes to go undercover. You're sure to get some good stories out of it, not to mention a few extra bucks.
Black Friday is a battleground where only the dedicated bargain hunters survive. Don't go into battle unarmed. Load up your Android with these strategic apps and keep your eyes peeled for deals.

4.5 One of the PS3s hidden gems SimianWonder | 16/07/2011 | See all SimianWonder's reviews (15) This may well be my favourite title on PS3. It's one of those rare beasts, an instant cult classic that tries to do something a little different and more often than not gets it absolutely spot on.It's not perfect; there's an element of chance in the combat that can sometimes seem to weigh heavily against you, and there are a couple of points in the story mode where the difficulty suddenly rises without much warning, but these are trivial complaints given the quality of the game.It's a gem of a game that deserves a chance in every PS3 owners collection.
4.5 Incredible mix of RPg and Tactics Aengel | 23/06/2010 | See all Aengel's reviews (4) Game Summary:This is a turn based strategy/RPG fighting game with a lot of plot. The story is presented as a book with panels containing cartoon fronts which you select to watch / play. As you play out each double spread the page flips over to the next chapter. However, to advance you must watch each clip / complete each battle in sequence.The battles take place in a variety of surroundings and you fight with a squad you have picked from the men and women you have at your disposal.Plot / characters:There is a LOT of plot. To progress through the game you have to watch from six to ten cartoon plot movies before you can battle. This can be frustrating when you first start the game, but stick with it; you soon open up skirmish battles which can be played at any time.At the start of the game you can only fight with the troops you have on hand, but as the story progresses you become the leader of a squadron, allowing you to pick which soldiers you want under your command. Each soldier will have a different personality and set of traits; some may perform better alone, others need people around to stop them panicking, some like the desert, some are allergic to woodland. There are a lot of these traits to consider when building your squad. You also need to take into account which soldiers like one another and which soldiers should be kept apart. If you are clever with the traits and friendships you have amongst your soldiers you can get them to power up for better damage / defence etc, it you ignore their needs then they can lose damage / defence etc until you pay better attention to what their personality is.Fighting:The fighting is turn based but presented in a way which I haven't seen in any game before. At the start of a battle you will be briefed on what your mission and objectives are and then you will pick the soldiers you want to take, placing them on an overhead view map in whatever strategic positions you think would be best.There are six classes;Scout (low damage, very long distance runners, moderate constitution),Sniper (high damage, short distance movers, low constitution),Shocktrooper (high damage, moderate distance runners, high constitution),Engineer (low damage, long distance runners, low constitution - special: disarms mines),Lancer (anti-armour damage, moderate distance runners, moderate constitution),Tank Commander (high damage, short distance moving, high constitution).At the beginning of your round you will have a set number of Action Points which are shown across the top of your screen as shields. You will get a base number of AP each round which can be added to by bringing specific characters with you. You can spend you AP moving one character or buy giving Orders (pumping up specific attributes, etc). When you chose a character to move you switch from your overhead map to a first person view. You can move that character around in the environment until their movement bar runs out. If you encounter enemies they will take pot-shots at you until you are past them. Entering into your aim function stops them from shooting at you, but you are then riveted to the spot until your combat is done.My opinion:This is a great game which has a unique style of fighting, combining tactical placement of units with first person fighting. I really enjoyed this and I hope very much they bring a sequel out on the PS3 and don't just relegate the title to the PSP. Highly recommended!
4.5 Simply Superb. BLAAblaa | 31/05/2010 | See all BLAAblaa's reviews (3) Didn't expect much, but the story line is just beautiful. It was like watching a Anime serious where you could interact!! Superb buy!!
4.5 Criminally Ignored PS3 title DWOverdose | 29/03/2010 | See all DWOverdose's reviews (11) I remember back when I first got my PS3, I thought to myself "Why the heck are there no rpgs" and when looking in a shop I came across this title. The box screamed J-RPG and I then remembered seeing a demo in the PSN store. I downloaded the demo and realised it was a realtime tactics game.I was hooked when I realised how beautifully put together the game was. The gameplay is brilliant, the characters varied and very relatable and the story itself is one that sucks you in.The game looks magnificent in HD in my oppinion even on my old TV it goes down as one of my favourite games in terms of it's style.It is so wrong that a ton of games get lots of hype whilst this was just brushed aside, one of the best games you can get for the PS3, no doubt.
4.5 A unique game that everyone should try. RVallant | 16/11/2009 | See all RVallant's reviews (3) Games like this come along once in a blue moon. This is a unique game deserving of a place in anyone's collection. With strategy, management and rpg elements, this game offers a unique fictional story based in some way on WW2, with political intrigue tackling the subjects of racism and warfare in an excellent style. It offers its story through a 'history book' and is uniquely presented with cell-shaded graphics.The game isn't all doom and gloom with its subject matter however, it is willing to present it's unique style of comedy through its optional missions; for example the power of carrots - a hillarious mission based on one of the character's love of vegetables which, the game smartly ties into giving that particular character a new skill for the rest of the war.To sum up, this is a return of Sega's best. If you're into strategy games with rpg elements, an excellent storyline or you like unique games that stand out from the market, then this deserves your attention.
4.5 Absolutely Amazing JoeyTwat | 16/07/2009 | See all JoeyTwat's reviews (1) Just purchased it so not very far into the game but loving what I've experienced so far. The visuals and storyline are fantastic. Not many other anime RPG out on the PS3 so this fits the bill nicely. No doubt in recommending this. Buy it now
4.5 Believe the non-existant hype SeanTruck | 04/07/2009 | See all SeanTruck's reviews (3) This game is a masterpiece. I never got into Final Fantasy or RPG's, more a driver/shooter man. But this game is made to the highest standard. If you have second doubts about it, just buy it, you will not regret it. It doesn't get much better than this. period.
4.5 Amazing... AngelOfDeath13 | 25/06/2009 | See all AngelOfDeath13's reviews (2) After buying and playing this game i found it hard to enjoy any other RPG's because they all paled in comparison to this beast of a game. The storyline is amazing the characters each have there own personality and the replay value is very high it's a very good game.
4.5 Essential Virwinia | 25/06/2009 | See all Virwinia's reviews (1) Valkyria Chronicles has very unique graphics, story, and game play. Marvelous and essential.
4.5 Polished and enjoyable Strategy-RPG Crofto | 21/06/2009 | See all Crofto's reviews (40) Valkyria Chronicles offers a very solid and enjoyable tactical-strategy experience. It's not absolutely perfect in its execution of certain gameplay elements, and has a few issues to be ironed out, but overall the game offers plenty of entertainment.What makes the game that bit more special is both the presentation (superb water-colour graphics and an excellent score) along with a very well-written story that has many underlying messages in regard to war.This game comes highly recommended to PS3 owners.
