In a large organization with complex analysis, modeling, and development initiatives spread across multiple projects, standardizing business semantics is key. Without a way to standardize the meanings and definitions of business concepts, each analysis, modeling, or development thread will naturally establish its own semantics. These disparate semantics can compound the already fragmented understanding of the relationship between IT assets and the business concepts they support.
For example, the business side of the house might clearly define the term Customer Tax Status. This enables each IT initiative that supports Customer Tax Status to use the defined meaning, which drives consistency of term name, definition, and related semantics across all the IT initiatives. By contrast, in the absence of such a structure, each IT initiative might naturally come to its own conclusion as to what Customer Tax Status means and how it should be defined. This can result in multiple structures, such as Customer Tax Code, Tax Status, Customer Code, all of which loosely imply the same semantics but differ in name and definition.
InfoSphere Business Glossary provides a means to specify business concepts and to manage the relationship among those concepts and the IT structures that support them. However, this content is only useful if it is easy to access. For example, without immediate and efficient access to glossary content, model users, including service analysts, component designers, and logical data modelers, might ignore the glossary and define their own terms. The glossary content should be available within the modeling tools, making the content impossible for the modeler to ignore. Still, there might be complications with model interchange and synchronization as relationships between model structures and glossary terms must be retained as models flow from tool to tool.
This article describes an example use case in which a UML modeler is transformed into a logical data model (LDM). The following steps describe the flow, as shown in Figure 1.
- UML modeler uses glossary browser to create new UML structures and to classify existing ones.
- Completed UML model is used for two purposes: to drive software/service development and as a source for a logical data model.
- Resulting logical data model retains glossary classifications.
- Generation to physical data model also retains glossary classifications, ready for publication to metadata server.
- Derived UML models also retain glossary classifications.
Figure 1. Flow starting with UML
Transforming an LDM specification to a UML model is an equally valid and supported use case. Simply reverse the process described in Figure 1 using the LDM-to-UML transform, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Flow starting with LDM
The high-level steps in Figure 2 are:
- Data modeler uses the glossary browser to create new UML structures and to classify existing ones.
- Completed logical model is used for two purposes: to drive database development and as a source for a UML model.
- Transformed UML model retains glossary classifications.
- UML model is used to drive software development stack.
- Generation to physical data retains glossary classifications, ready for publication to metadata server.
Using the business glossary in RSM and RSA
Complete the following steps to use the InfoSphere Business Glossary within the UML modeling environment.
- If the glossary is not already configured for the workspace, right-click the root of the Business Glossary Explorer, and select Preferences. The Preferences (Filtered) window appears, as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Configure connection to a live Business Glossary instance
- Enter the Host, Username, and Password, and click OK.
- Click Window > Show View > Other to show the Business Glossary Explorer window.
- Click Glossary Explorer, and click OK, as shown in Figure 4.
Figure 4. Bringing up the Glossary Explorer
The Glossary Explorer window, as shown in Figure 5, appears on your lower-right panel of RSA,
Figure 5. Glossary Explorer
- Right-click anywhere in this window, and select Update to load new updates to the glossary.
From the Glossary Explorer, a modeler can perform either of two actions.
- The modeler can drag and drop glossary terms onto existing classes and
attributes of the UML model. This establishes a classifying
relationship between that UML model element and the glossary term.
Figure 6 shows an example of dragging and dropping the business term
Involved Partyfrom the glossary onto the UML class
Involved Party. Repeating this for the terms
Next Of Kinresults in the classification relationships shown at the bottom of Figure 6 (larger image).
Figure 6. Drag and drop terms
For the modeler to establish new elements based on the terms in the Business Glossary, he simply drags the glossary terms onto the UML canvas. A new UML class is created based on the business definition of that glossary term. Figure 7 (larger image) shows a new class added by dragging the glossary term
Figure 7. Creating a new class
- The modeler can add new attributes to an existing class. Figure 8 (larger
shows the result of dragging and dropping the term
Health Status Dateto add a new attribute to the
Customerclass. The relationship to the originating glossary term is retained.
Figure 8. Adding an attribute
Using this approach, the UML modeler has complete freedom to define his model, but he is encouraged to do so in accordance with the agreed business terms and semantics of the enterprise, as shown in Figure 9. If existing model structures exist that are not already in strict accordance with the glossary, these structures can be classified using the appropriate glossary terms.
Figure 9. Terms in glossaryAssigned
Constructing a new logical data model
Within the InfoSphere Data Architect environment, the glossary is also available through the same Business Glossary Explorer plugin. To import the UML model and associated glossary classifications as an LDM, define an instance of transformation from UML to LDM, as shown in Figure 10. This is a standard transform that has been updated in the most recent version of IDA to support glossary classification.
Figure 10. Specifying a configuration name and transformation
- To configure the transform, set the source for the logical data model to be the UML model or the UML package within the model.
- Set the target as the IDA project in use, as shown in Figure 11.
Figure 11. Selecting source and target
- Click Finish. The transformation configuration is defined, as shown in Figure 12.
Figure 12. Finishing and running the transformation configuration
- To execute the transformation, click Run, which creates an LDM file corresponding to the UML model, such as Involved Party.ldm.
- Open the LDM file to see the new and existing UML structures, now rendered in ER notation, as shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13. Resulting LDM with glossary classifications
The data modeler can then use this LDM file as input to a transformation to DBM and ultimately to DDL to deploy to the database management system (DBMS). During this process, the data modeler often makes extensions or changes to this model, which can then be transformed back into a UML model. This synchronizes model assets between the worlds of UML and LDM, which are all connected to and classified by a common business taxonomy within Business Glossary.
For more details on the model management implications of this pattern, see Resources.
These new functions within the modeling platform fundamentally change the capability of an enterprise to define and control business semantics across various modeling domains. These techniques, properly applied, can greatly reduce the variation in business definitions across modeling efforts, across projects, and across line-of-business boundaries.

Employment up, wages down, in large counties
June 29, 2012
From December 2010 to December 2011, employment increased in 266 of the 322 largest U.S. counties. The U.S. average weekly wage decreased over the year by 1.7 percent to $955 in the fourth quarter of 2011.
|Percent increase
Kern, CA
Fort Bend, TX
Weld, CO
Williamson, TN
Utah, UT
Washington, PA
Rutherford, TN
Montgomery, TX
Harford, MD
Webb, TX
In December 2011, national employment was 131.3 million, up by 1.4 percent or 1.8 million jobs, from December 2010. The 322 U.S. counties with 75,000 or more jobs accounted for 70.7 percent of total U.S. employment and 76.4 percent of total wages. These 322 counties had a net job growth of 1.2 million over the year, accounting for 68.8 percent of the overall U.S. employment increase.
Kern, California, posted the largest increase, with a gain of 5.3 percent over the year, compared with national job growth of 1.4 percent. Within Kern, the largest employment increase occurred in natural resources and mining, which gained 8,896 jobs over the year (16.7 percent).
The over-the-year decline in average weekly wages is one of only five declines in the history of the series, which dates back to 1978. The decline from the fourth quarter of 2010 to the fourth quarter of 2011 is the only one in which employment simultaneously grew over the year. Total wages decreased by 0.5 percent over the year.
|Percent decrease

Durham, NC
St. Clair, IL

Santa Clara, CA
Vanderburgh, IN
Williamson, TX
Somerset, NJ
Smaller bonus payments in the fourth quarter of 2011 contributed to the decrease in the average weekly wage. In contrast, the average weekly wage declines posted in the first two quarters of 2009 resulted from significant declines in both employment and wages. During this period, total wage declines were 5.0 percent or more, while employment losses were above 3.0 percent.
In the fourth quarter of 2011, Olmsted, Minnesota, had the largest over-the-year decrease in average weekly wages with a loss of 21.3 percent. Within Olmsted, a total wage decline of $287.3 million (-29.1 percent) in the education and health services industry had the largest impact on the county's decrease in average weekly wages.
These data are from the BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages program. To learn more, see "County Employment and Wages: Fourth Quarter 2011" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-12-1290. These data are derived from summaries of employment of workers covered by state and federal unemployment insurance. Data for 2011 are preliminary and subject to revision.

J. Mayweather: One-Dimensional Pacquiao, Easy For Floyd
By Chris Robinson
It's hard to state how disappointing the Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley bout last weekend really was. Outside of a knockdown by Pacquiao in the third round and a knockdown by Shane in the tenth, which really was a push after further review, there was little to hold on to in terms of suspense or drama from rounds one through twelve.
But the general consensus has seen nearly all of the blame fall on Mosley, who was more content to backpedal than engage after absorbing that knockdown in round three. Pacquiao wasn't scintillating by any means but he won nearly every round and was still aggressive while forcing what little action there was to be had.
But one man who isn't so quick to let Pacquiao off the hook is Las Vegas-based trainer Jeff Mayweather, who has seen his family connected to the Filipino superstar the past few years because of the intrigue of a fight between him and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Giving his assessment of the fight, Jeff didn't exactly have any rave reviews.
"Well I thought the fight was very boring," said Mayweather. "The fight could have been better if Shane was willing to take chances but it seemed like once he got dropped he went strictly into survival mode and become way too friendly. I didn't understand that at all. Both fighters, before every round, touched gloves. After every round they touched gloves. And I already knew in the 12th round they was gonna hug each other like they were best friends. It didn't make for a good fight when two guys are getting paid that kind of money and they are that friendly as though they really don't want to hurt one another."
As for his criticisms towards Pacquiao, Mayweather definitely had a few things he wanted to get off of his chest.
"I mean, Manny took chances but more or less he exposed himself," Jeff continued. "He's so one-dimensional it's ridiculous. And when he got really aggression he threw a hook, left-hand, hook, left-hand. Nothing else. That was the only thing that he did. Occasionally he would throw a body shot but it was so rare. And he couldn't hardly even hit Shane."
To most observers a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight is extremely hard to predict given the multitude of gifts that each man brings into the ring and the contrast of styles that would be on display. Figures to be an intriguing matchup but Jeff speaks brazenly when calling for a routine night's worth of work for Floyd if the fight ever comes off.
"Believe me, if Pacquiao fights like that he has no chance at all. Zero chance. I mean, first of all, he couldn't hit Mosley and Mosley isn't a great defensive fighter. And then, secondly, there were so many times that Mosley could have countered him. He was wide open but Mosley was so caught up in surviving he didn't take no chance. With the speed and timing that Floyd has, and the defense that he has, if he couldn't hit Mosley he sure aint going to hit Floyd, so I see a easy fight for Floyd," Mayweather boldly predicted.
Hearing his words, the Pacquiao faithful would be quick to call Jeff a hater but truth be told he does have other things on his mind at the time. At the moment he has been training with his chief fighter and former super bantamweight champion Celestino Caballero and will be heading to Panama later this month to finish up camp before venturing to Argentina for their challenge of WBA featherweight champion Jonathan Barros on June 17th.
Caballero is coming off of a shocking upset loss to Jason Litzau this past November but Mayweather says that 'Pelenchin' is once again looking in rare form.
"I'm excited. I'm leaving for Panama May 21st. This time we understand about not overtraining and all the other things we aren't doing this time. We haven't really bee sparring much, just trying to maintain his weight and get him to a good spot with his weight. He's back to the old Celestino and I'm looking forward to him becoming a champion again."

Skip to comments.No Joke, Not Kidding, Not Joshing Ya, Not the Onion: Sarah Palin for GOP Nominee in 2016?
Posted on 11/18/2012 7:06:26 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet
click here to read article
I think it's somebody who's too old to be a H7er, but too young to be a H9er.
Yes, Palin.
Are you being serious? (I'm not being a smartass)
That doesn't answer a thing!
A hater is someone who is typically jealous of someone else's money/car/clothes/girlfriend/status. They can never say anything good about the person they're "hating on". It's an urban term.
He should have spelled it out, H8r doesn't mean squat!!!!
H8R is a way that the "youths" spell it when texting.
I don't converse with youths and we have texting blocked on our phones!!!
Phones are tools not toys!
For some reason, I'm guessing you're older than Generation X.
I'm 75 and I quit associating with dumb shits my own age when I was 7.
All my friends and people I grew up with are 82 to 90 if still alive.
lol - ask me again in the fall of 2015.
Said very well. I hope you keep hanging around and keep posting here. Good night sir.
Most of the people who hate Sarah Palin are liberals who would never vote for a republican under any circumstance.
The GOP swindle's us every time
If she gets nominated I'll vote for her.
Chuck Norris in 2016 or don't bother calling me.
Are you comparing Sarah Palin to George Washington?
Is that what you got from that? No, what I'm saying is that the founding fathers here and in South America didn't let an opposition press stop them and neither should we, whether you call us the Tea Party, the silent majority or something else. Plus, I don't think that George Washington would be ashamed of Sarah Palin, though I'm surprised so many here are.
She has sons?
Oh yea! One. Nevermind!
Fair enough. It's much too late to get in a discussion about the framers and what they might think of the current state of American politics. (Although one must imagine they would be rather disappointed)
I don't know what the answer is for the GOP. I've been living and breathing politics for the last twelve months, it's all become terribly tiresome.
I voted libertarian because I'm sick of seeing young men and women coming home in body bags or with their limbs blown off. The first candidate who has a serious plan for getting America out of the world police business will have my support.
Otherwise, the GOP can go fly a kite.
Exactly Palin.
But them FR is as infested with Palinhaters as the Democratic Party, the GOP amd the Greens.
Count me in - Sarah's still the best hope - she will not flip-flop - had she been the nominee, we would have won!!
I'm sick of voting for 'wimps'. I voted for 'her' in 2008(not McCain)and hopefully will again in 2016,this year I voted ABO. I'd crawl on broken glass to vote for her - All the way from Tasmania. I'm fortunate to get home every year to visit my children, grand children and now great-grandchildren and I hate seeing the country I love going to hell in a handbasket. We need to restore our conservative values - now or never!!
I want Sarah, 100%
Palin is a joke. She is riding the Tea Party mantra right now because she isn't facing the pressure. If she were the nominee, she wouldn't be much difference than Romney or McCain.
I'd go for Palin but she is a conservative and EVERYONE knows the Republican party only nominates very old rino geezer white guys.
Amen to that. Everytime the world says, "Somebody should do something!" They mean American blood and American treasure must be spent on some aim that is of no benefit to us. Then the same ones that asked for our aid stand back and call us warmongers while seeking to profit off our troops blood and sweat.
We need to spend a generation or two taking care of our own.
Yep. And if she runs I'll support her.
But if she coyly bats her eyelashes for three years, forget it.
That's a nonsensical approach. The media will tear apart any GOP candidate -- for goodness sakes, they got a huge part of the country thinking Mitt Romney was a raving right-winger -- so by letting that be a barrier to entry, all you are doing is letting the media pick the candidate.
I agree.
We need Palins in the WH — that's this country's ONLY hope. Maybe we can have Todd as the nominee in 2016 and Sarah takes over after his second term — that way we have 16 years of repair.
I couldn't have said it better myself.

Real media revolution gives the people the power
For all the technological adaptation the media has been through, the real revolution needed to improve actual political reporting has not taken place. That revolution, says Tim Dunlop, would involve the audience having more say in the way news is reported.
In a recent article, former Sunday Age editor Gay Alcorn wrestled with the idea of how the media might conduct itself during the upcoming federal election. Concerned with criticisms that they did a lousy job in 2010, she wondered if they might be able to improve this time round.
The signs are not good.
Not only are there fewer journalists available to cover the election this year - thanks to lay-offs at both Fairfax and News Ltd and in television - but just as importantly the industry is still dominated by a mindset and a power structure that resists change.
The basic problem is that, for all the technological adaptation the media has been through, the real revolution needed to improve actual political reporting has not taken place.
That revolution, were it to happen, would involve editors having less say in the way news is reported and the audience having more.
I can hear the laughs of derision from journalists and editors from here, and that's fine.
But it has to happen.
Alcorn recognises this when she says:
Two weeks into the (2010) campaign, blogger Greg Jericho was listening to Abbott announce the Liberals' disability education policy. As he recounts in his book, The Rise of the Fifth Estate, as a father of a daughter with Down syndrome, he...was interested and...waited for questions. But reporters asked nothing at all about the policy, instead grilling Abbott on whether he believed Latham when he accused Kevin Rudd of leaking to Channel Nine's Laurie Oakes...
Why didn't those journos ask about policy? Because their head offices weren't much interested. Because the assumption is that policies - apart from a few the parties want to talk about - are dull compared with personalities. And because once it starts, a campaign has one big narrative: who's going to win? The polls are the story, and how they go week to week dictates whether the leaders are judged harshly or kindly.
Note the key phrase there: "Because their head offices weren't much interested." It suggests just how deeply resistance to change is embedded in the power structures of the industry.
In other words, the media cling to work practices and attitudes from another era even as they embrace the new technology that changes some fundamental things about the way their business is organised.
That earlier era was typified by top-down control, with decision-making power necessarily concentrated in a few hands. It was a time when incidental advertising financed reporting so that readers never needed to be courted in the way that most businesses have to court their customers.
It was a time when the audience was - technologically - kept at a distance from the production of news and so had limited autonomy in responding to the matters that concerned them.
The internet has changed all that - all of it - and the toothpaste is not going back into the tube.
Media organisations - especially newspapers - have to make money in a different way, most likely involving asking their audiences to pay directly for the content they produce. To get them to do this, the content is going to have to change.
This means not just a different sort of journalism, but a different relationship with the audience.
In her article, Alcorn mentions work by academic Sally Young, and Young's book, How Australia Decides, is certainly worth a read.
For me, the most telling statistic it cites is that although 80 per cent of the public report that they make an effort to catch up with the news every day, politics is at the bottom of the list of topics they look for.
So although the argument is often made that the public are disengaged from politics, the reality is probably more that they are disengaged from the way politics is conducted. And the simple fact is that the way politics is conducted can't be separated from the way it is reported.
And we know all this. The arguments have been made for years and the evidence is in. Media organisations in Australia - journalists and editors - cannot say they haven't been told. And yet they still resist the obvious and we go round in circles having the same silly arguments, along with the hand-wringing that goes with them.
Even at this early stage, the signs are that in 2013 it will be business as usual.
Last weekend, for instance, Tony Abbott staged a photo-op in Western Sydney which the media dutifully reported as a "rally".
The AAP story, picked up by a number of outlets, was the sort of piece that passes itself off as straight reporting but is really promotional material for the party involved:
The coalition launched its mini-election campaign on Sunday in Sydney's west with a speech from Mr Abbott and a series of television advertisements.
The unlikely location of the Auburn basketball centre was transformed for Mr Abbott's speech into a US-rally style convention centre complete with stage, a giant Australian flag and hundreds of supporters waving placards with the coalition's slogan Hope. Reward. Opportunity.
After striding to the stage to rapturous applause, Mr Abbott spoke from in front of a bank of tiered seating filled with Liberal party faithful, including his wife Margie.
In the speech, the federal member for Warringah pledged to scrap the carbon and mining taxes, cut red tape and secure the nation's borders, calling the upcoming federal election the most important in a generation.
Despite the event's US-style set-up, Mr Abbott embraced local vernacular in the speech.
"When I say we will deliver competent fair dinkum government you know we will because we did," he told the crowd of around 300 people.
He also stressed his family's place in Australia's "social fabric".
"We're a pretty normal family with a mortgage with bills we've struggled with the school fees we've struggled with the hospital bills," he said.
"We know what it's like to struggle."
Seriously, how is that any different to what the Liberal Party would write on a four-colour brochure?
To top it off, the AAP also ran a caption under one their photos of the "rally" which said: "Mr Abbott officially kicked off his unofficial mini-election campaign...".
How deep into the perverted logic of the dog-and-pony show that is modern politics does a news organisation have to be to write that?
The official launch of his unofficial campaign? FFS.
None of this is accidental: it is the inevitable result of the spooning relationship that exists between the media and the politicians, and it happens because it is mutually beneficial: easy copy for the media; free advertising for the pollies.
And we wonder why people place politics last on their list of news stories they seek out.
John L Robinson, a former journalist and editor in the US, has written at length about the things he did wrong in those roles and how he "missed the future". He notes:
There may be other reasons [I got things wrong]. Complacency, however, wasn't one of them. I never felt as if we were in decent shape, that we could rest, that we had reached our destination. Instead, I was like a kid running around with my arms outstretched thinking I was an airplane...
I am positive about one thing: Had I organized monthly meetings with the public to hear how we could serve them better, it would have improved our journalism, and I would have been a better steward of their newspaper.
Somebody put that last paragraph on t-shirts and distribute them amongst the nation's newspaper editors.
So, as much as I appreciate what Alcorn is saying in her article, its mere existence just reinforces how little distance has been travelled.
As the 2013 federal election approaches, are we really still going to be stuck having the same old arguments while the media and politicians play their usual games?
It certainly looks like it.

LAREDO, Texas — Out behind the nursing home where Josefina Alexander Gonzalez turned 99 Saturday, there's a dilapidated green ranch house, its porch cover still held up by rough-hewn tree trunks.
To the southeast, you see a lot of tall brush and honey mesquite, a view that hasn't changed much since the 1940s, when her parents bought a 1,000-acre ranch outside this isolated border town.
Look in any other direction, and you'll see new construction on her property, as developers cash in on the last large tract of open space inside of Loop 20 in north Laredo, now worth as much as $150 million.

Knicks just played terrible ball can't even blame the refs, no flow on offense terrible D. Melo slowed down so much in the 2nd half, Amare was a no show, all the injuries, and this team is not showing any real fight.
I was delusional I thought we can steal a game or two... even without the calls Miami are destroying us.
Miami plays great defense.You can't play this kind of ball and expect to win.
The Heat just execute better than us. I'm not afraid to admit that. We are not on their level yet. They make crisp passes and understand how to exploit the defense.

Amare was useless, not rebounding the ball, not closing out on D. He NEEDS to come off the bench or something at this point. We all know Melo/STAT combo hasn't worked ALL YEAR and both have played better in the past without each other. I'd prefer to see Jeffries out there over STAT at this point at least HE TRIES.
BDiddy/JR/Melo/Novak/Chandler should be the lineup for key stretches
Not having Shumpert/Lin kills us
we need athleticism in the back court to handle Miami's ball pressure, we're still an above average team, who cant consistently defend and get great shots
we need some athleticism and some motivation
its stressful, when you watch every game since Dec 25th and see some of the same characteristics, it takes a toll emotionally because I support this team but it seems they're just not into it
Who the **** is amare kidding. His pre game comments was as intense as he got tonight...wow what a pitiful team to watch right now. two years in a row 7th seed 4-0 sweep out.

Bills defense comes up big [1:09 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Give Rex and the defensive staff credit for coming up with a new look to baffle Palmer and company. The Bills used a seven defensive back personnel grouping a number of times in the game and it derailed Arizona's passing game. They also did it while playing without starting cornerback Ronald Darby who was inactive due to a hamstring injury. At halftime, the big three passing weapons of Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd and John Brown had combined for just three catches on 12 targets for 20 yards.'
That's what's called a team win [1:08 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Arizona didn't get its first first down until there was 9:25 left in the second quarter. At that point the total yardage was 186-7. By the end of the game, Arizona outgained Buffalo 348-296, but the Bills only turned the ball over once while Arizona had four picks against and a botched field goal attempt that was ruled a lost fumble by Drew Butler.'
Bills-Cards: Arrow Up/Arrow Down [1:07 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Regardless if it was the right move to fire Greg Roman, and regardless if he's the right head coach long-term, Ryan got his team ready to play - and play well - after all that happened since last Friday. A lot of distractions. A lot of pressure. A very good opponent and staring 0-3 in the face. It would have been easy to pack up the helmets and shoulder pads and go home. Yet, Rex's Bills not only kept it together, they rallied behind one another for a big victory.'
Bills offense, defense find its groove in 33-18 win over Cardinals [1:06 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'Despite not having cornerback Ronald Darby in the lineup due to a hamstring injury, the Bills secondary remained strong, intercepting Palmer four times in the final six minutes as the Cardinals threatened to rally down 33-18 late in the game.'
Oh, Rex: Bills coach brings up Belichick following Week 3 win [1:05 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'The Bills just collected a 33-18 win over the Arizona Cardinals at New Era Field, but then near the end of the conversation during his post-game press conference, the Bills head coach brought up the idea of his Week Four opponents -- the New England Patriots -- playing wide receiver Julian Edelman at quarterback.'
7 observations from Bills - Cardinals (9/25/16) [1:04 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'Hughes helped win the Bills the game against Arizona. The penalty was an awful one to take, but, it was merely an exception to the following rule: Hughes dominated the Arizona offensive line.'
Rex's Bills keep hope alive in upset of Arizona [1:03 AM]
WROC-TV reports: 'I'm still not sold on Rex Ryan, but on this day I have to give him his due. He totally out-coached counterpart Bruce Arians while guiding a team without three of its best players – Sammy Watkins, Cordy Glenn and Ronald Darby, each of whom watched the game in street clothes because of injury.'
Bills Pull Off The Upset With 33-18 Win [1:02 AM]
Bills Daily reports: 'A huge win in a desperate situation with several big players being sidelined allows the fans to feel good for a week.'
Bills fast start, solid defense grounds Cards in 33-18 win [1:01 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Buffalo's running game resurfaced in a big way as they rolled up better than 200 yards on the ground under new offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. LeSean McCoy rushed more over 100 yards and had a pair of touchdowns in the victory, while Taylor rushed for 79.'
LeSean McCoy leads run game resurgence [1:00 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"Yeah a couple of oddball formations," said Tyrod Taylor. "Definitely (makes it harder) for the defense. They can't (hide things) as easy bringing in different personnel, lined up in different formations. It just keeps them unbalanced. But at the same time we're calling our regular offense, we're just moving out of different formations. But I think Coach Lynn did a good job of that mixing it in early against their defense."'
Bills 'D' goes with speed on third down [12:59 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"This package was totally different," Bills safety Corey Graham said. "It was something that nobody had seen from us. Rex, Rob and Dennis Thurman did a great job putting together something that nobody expects because you've never seen us do it. And it worked out for us. It was a good package, good play-calling and we tip our caps to the coaches."'
What they're saying: Bills players discuss the win over Arizona [12:58 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Yeah, oh no it's tempo. I knew we would run the ball well because he's big on that. The urgency to get in and out of the huddle. Get up on the ball. There were some times where we would snap the ball when they were just kind of lining up and that helps out. Defenses can't structure their blitzes how they want. They can't see what formations we're in so they can line up everything and get it correct. You know, cause defense, all that is, is they just react to the offense. Okay the ball goes left, they react to the left. So when they line up they try to find out who's who, they have their keys, when you snap the ball fast it's kinda hard to get everything together. I don't know if you noticed, but we ran some quick two-minute type of plays early in the game, so there is a lot of different things to prepare for.'
Bills to be without Darby, Salas and Watkins [12:57 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"I'm just going to go in there and expect to play my game," said Robert Woods. "I always approach the game like I'm a number one receiver. I've just got to step up and make plays. I may get a few more targets, so I've got to be an open target."'
Can new offensive coordinator change Bills' course? [9:43 AM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'However, this afternoon, Ryan and his Bills need to be careful what they wished for.'
Sunday's Arizona Coverage [9:01 AM]
TwoBillsDrive.com reports: Click here
Report says Sammy Watkins out Sunday against Arizona [9:00 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'The weather shouldn't be a factor Sunday in New Era Field, which means Dan Carpenter can handle kickoff duties. Scratching Gay would allow the Bills to activate rookie running back Jonathan Williams for the first time this season, which could provide a boost to the running game.'
Pregame primer: Everything you need to know for Bills-Cardinals, plus five things to watch for [8:59 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Ryan is clearly desperate for a win. Firing offensive coordinator Greg Roman after two games and replacing him with Anthony Lynn certainly looks like a panic move. If the losses continue to mount, the head coach might be the next position that gets changed. Players have said all the expected things about having Ryan's back, but the best way they can show that is with an inspired effort against a powerful Cardinals team.'
Bills' change of coordinators eliminates one more excuse [1:59 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Now Anthony Lynn gets his turn as coordinator, while saddled with Roman's offensive system. Lynn will streamline the offense in an attempt to get more out of this wondrous collection of offensive talent. He said his head is spinning. It ought to be. Lynn has never been a coordinator in the NFL or called plays in a regular-season game.'
Larry Fitzgerald continues to forge a lasting legacy as his clock winds down [1:58 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Fitzgerald is playing far younger than 33 years old. He caught a career-high 109 passes last year, and entered Week Three third in the NFL with 14 catches for 162 yards. His three receiving touchdowns -- 99th, 100th and 101st of his career -- are tied for the league lead.'
Bills meet Cardinals with season already on the brink [1:57 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'Yeah, they really do. Having dropped their first two games to the Ravens and the Jets, the Bills are already in emergency mode in the infancy of the 2016 season. Hard to believe that summer just officially ended a few days ago, and the Bills are on the brink of irrelevancy, though one can argue that over the past 16 years, irrelevancy is a perpetual state of being for this franchise.'
Buffalo Bills vs. Arizona Cardinals preview and prediction [1:56 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'All eyes will be on Lynn as he takes over the play-calling duties, and first and foremost on everyone's mind is can he get the passing game working? Tyrod Taylor is still struggling with the same things he did last year, and most prominently, his continued inability to get Sammy Watkins consistently involved.'
Buffalo Bills meet with former New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin [1:55 AM]
Syracuse Post Standard reports: 'The purpose of the meaning has not revealed, but it's possible that Buffalo is looking at Coughlin as a potential consultant or football czar.'
Q&A: Who are the real Cardinals?, more [1:54 AM]
Batavia Daily News reports: 'They are a team that thrives on momentum and playing from ahead, they struggle when they get themselves in an early hole and tend to press as a group trying to make plays. If they get out fast and early, it could be a long day for the Buffalo Bills, but if the Arizona Cardinals come out and let the Bills get their offense going, it is going to be a dogfight for the Cardinals.'
Bills look to climb out of 0-2 hole against Cardinals [1:53 AM]
Dunkirk Observer reports: 'They say the NFL is 16 one-week seasons, so the Bills will have to try and put the previous two "seasons" behind them, in order to get on track to try and end the longest playoff drought in any of the four major professional sports, a drought that all Bills fans have had more than enough of.'
Tranquil Tyrod Taylor in middle of Bills' circus [1:52 AM]
Newport News Daily Press reports: 'The Ryans are football's Kardashians, and adding them to a volatile franchise such as the Bills carried obvious risk. Dating to Hall of Famer Mary Levy's departure after the 1997 season, none of Buffalo's next six head coaches — Wade Phillips, Gregg Williams, Mike Mularkey, Dick Jauron, Chan Gailey and Doug Marrone — lasted four seasons.'
Here's why Rex Ryan is not totally to blame for Bills' failings [1:51 AM]
New York Post reports: 'If the Pegulas end up firing Ryan, the coaching money they would have thrown away since the end of the 2014 season, when Marrone left with his buyout, would exceed a staggering $22 million (Marrone's $4 million, the $16.5 million of the last three years of Ryan's contract and the reported $2.4 million remaining on Roman's contract, which runs though next season).'
Former OU center Ikard's uncertain NFL path leads back to Buffalo [1:50 AM]
Oklahoma City Oklahoman reports: '"I'm excited to have an opportunity to help contribute to this football team," Ikard said. "I'm just going to do what I'm coached to do and take advantage of opportunities when I get them."'
Former UA standout John Fina will lead Bills' charge Sunday in Buffalo [1:49 AM]
Arizona Daily Star reports: 'He will be the "Leader of the Charge," carrying a Bills flag onto the field before the game.'
Bills/Cardinals preview: notes and stats [1:48 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'QB Tyrod Taylor has 110.3 rating & 9 TDs (7 pass, 2 rush) in past 5 at home.'
5 things to watch in Bills - Cardinals (9/25/16) [1:47 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'I think this game is going to be close… really close — especially with it being at New Era Field and the motivation the Bills have to prove everyone wrong. However, at the end of the day, I look at the talent Arizona has all over the field.'

Helenius Hand Injury Update, Chisora May Land a Break
By Per Ake Persson
Newly crowned EBU heavyweight champion Robert Helenius' hand injury appears to be worse than it was initially reported. Nothing is broken but there appears to be a hairline fracture in the right hand. It now appears that Alexander Dimitrenko has relinquished his position as the mandatory challenger to Helenius' title, and that means Dereck Chisora (15-2, 9KOs) can secure this position but whether or not he can force the EBU to order an immediate rematch with Helenius (17-0, 11KOs) is a different story.
[QUOTE=Russ James;11547950]Actually it does. A "hairline fracture" (also called a "closed fracture" or a "simple fracture") is a typical break, while a "compound fracture" is a complete break of the bone where one or more parts of the bone break…Comment by komodo on 12-10-2011
[QUOTE=Russ James;11544427]"Fracture" is the word that the medical profession uses for what we laymen call a break. In other words, his hand was broken.[/QUOTE] A hair line fracture dose not mean a broken hand you need to sue who ever…Comment by komodo on 12-10-2011
He claimed that his right hand was broken after the Chisora fight turns out it's only a fracture :nonono: My mom went 2 days without realising she'd broken her hand guess they dont make em that tough no more :rofl:Comment by HitmanHattonAY on 12-10-2011
chisora won by at least 3 rounds, rematch at the 02 arena would be goodComment by Hitman932 on 12-10-2011

The gold markets fell during the session on Tuesday, but got a bit of a bid right around the $1730 level. This bounce formed a hammer, which of course seems to base itself on the $1740 level. This is the site of a significant cluster from a couple of weeks ago, and as such we would expect to see a bit of support in this general vicinity. Because of this, and the bullish attitude we have ongoing general, we are going to be looking for buying opportunities.
We suggest that the breaking of the highs from the session on Tuesday would be that signal. In fact, we think it would begin a return to consolidation all the way up to just below the $1800 level. We of course recognizes as an uptrend, and are very confident in going long.

NRA Enemies List: With Enemies Like These, Who Needs Guns?
he NRA enemies list posted here has become a hot media topic as the organization and its executive director Wayne LaPierre leap from self-parody into the realm of the truly demented.

Grilled Salmon With Chili-Lime Sauce
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 10 mins
We just love salmon and really enjoyed this recipe for it, which was adapted from Quick & Easy Vietnamese. You can sub another meaty fish, if you wish, such as tuna or halibut.
Ingredients Nutrition
For The Salmon
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 1⁄4 lbs salmon fillets
For The Sauce
- 1⁄4 cup fish sauce
- 3 tablespoons freshly-squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion
- To marinate the fish, combine the oil, ginger, garlic, shallots, fish sauce, soy sauce, and sugar in a medium bowl; stir until sugar is dissolved and everything is mixed well.
- Place the salmon fillets in the bowl and turn to coat with the marinade (or put the salmon in a zip lock bag, add the marinade, squeeze out air, and seal).
- Cover and set aside for 20 to 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
- To prepare the sauce, combine all ingredients listed for the sauce in a small bowl; stir to dissolve the sugar and mix everything well.
- To cook the fish, build a hot charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.
- Place the fish carefully on the grill for about 5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the fish and how well you like it done.
- Transfer to a serving platter alongside the Chili-Lime Sauce and serve hot or warm.
- Note: To bake in the oven, preheat oven to 375F and bake for about 15 minutes.
Most Helpful
The marinade was absolutely perfect. I wasn't crazy about the sauce however. I think the fish sauce came through a little too strong. Next time I'll try cutting it back by half in the sauce.
I used lemon juice and 3 tb of the fish sauce. I left the marinade on the fish and broiled it, then drizzled the sauce over it. It was great. Will definitely do this again.
I, too, reduced the fish sauce (am watching my sodium intake). And due to inclement weather here in the Great Northwest, I cooked the marinated salmon on a shallow-rimmed, thick cedar plank meant for the kitchen oven (as opposed to the thin-type of cedar plank meant to burn/smoke over an outdoor fire or grill). It was wonderful! I really enjoyed the unique flavor of this dish, and a I can't wait to prepare salmon this way on my charcoal Webber grill for family and friends. Thank you for sharing this outstanding recipe, GaylaJ!

Tobacco and Alcohol: Complements or Substitutes? A Structural Model Approach

Ruhr Economic Paper No. 34
The question of whether two drugs - namely alcohol and tobacco - are used as complements or substitutes is of crucial interest if side-effects of anti-smoking policies are considered. Numerous papers have empirically addressed this issue by estimating demand systems for alcohol and tobacco and subsequently calculating cross-price effects. However, this traditional approach often is seriously hampered by insufficient price-variation observed in survey data. We therefore suggest an alternative instrumental variables approach that statistically mimics an experimental study and does not rely on prices as explanatory variables.This approach is applied to German survey data. Our estimation results suggest that a reduction in tobacco consumption results in a moderate reduction in alcohol consumption. It is shown theoretically that this implies that alcohol and tobacco are complements. Hence, we conclude that successful anti-smoking policies will not result in the unintended side-effect of an increased (ab)use of alcohol.

I have a Casual Dining Restaurant client that is requesting an RFP on having a menu pricing analysis and tracking model created that will help them determine what products and/or markets they could possible increase pricing. As a result, I am looking to put together a small team of Statisticians/Machine learning/Math experts
Restaurant concepts are known for their 'dirty' data specifically:
1) their menu items are not categorized
2) the way they program their POS they sometimes do not capture the full price of Combo items
3) they do not have a history of the promotions/discounts they have historically conducted (in local markets)
So I need the team to not only be experts in the math/stats/machine learning aspect...but the 'data' model/cleansing aspect as well.
Additional Requirements:
Education: Masters or PhD in Statistics/Computer Science/Mathematics

I'm part of the boreds group. folk should join up on that.
ryan added a post in a topic How the hell do you find a job without previous experience?have you tried a recruiter? yeah it sucks that you have to pay a pimp, but they do all the heavy lifting for you and then you have the chance to go full time.
In June, the missus and i both moved to michigan for work. I got hired to one of the big three car markers through aerotek and she got hired to some third party car part supplier through aerotek as well. she wasn't making too much, but after 4 months they took in full time and bought her out of that contract. She's now full time salary which came with a bump since the company wasn't paying the recruiter their cut.. She has no real experience related to the work and her schooling was in customs border services, they did all the work building her up and selling her.
ryan added a post in a topic What did you want to be when you grew up? What are you now?I was into dinosaurs and paleontology, (what kid wasn't) but then i wanted to be a professional baseball player or an engineer. I actually found baseball cards of myself from when i was 8 through 11 and under the section "future ambitions/career" they started at Computer Engineer and then became Engineer. I'm now an Electrical Engineer at GM.

I had this issue with external enclosures failing and i thought it was the drive. Once you pull out the harddrive, try throwing it into an extra bay on a desktop or into an external case. You may get lucky and be able to get your data

thats not a bad deal for mysimplemobile. When i travel in the US for work i have a T-Mobile number i do pay as you go and its $50 for unlimited talk text and data. if there's no contract i may switch because the caveat to the tmobile is only the first 100MB is at 4G speeds

ryan added a post in a topic Watching TV Shows on a Television without Cablei use all of the above and more. My homebrewed Wii lets me stream using WiiMC. I found this to be the simplest and most reliable because as soon as something is dropped into the shared folder its available instantly, but the picture quality isn't there. I also stream through my xbox but i hate having to open windows media player everytime i want to sync my videos. its stupid. My most common way is using the network capabilities in my tv and streaming directly from my shared drives on my computer. this cuts down on the remotes as i only need the TV one and not a TV one and a video game controller
I haven't had cable in 6 years. I RSS feed all my torrents so they download as scheduled (almost like waiting for air times) I don't think i could ever pay for cable and being a slave to the networks scheduling on when i have to watch stuff.
as far as not wanting to use the computer everytme to watch a show, either leave your computer on all the time so its not an issue or set up a media server so its always accessible. We keep a tablet on the coffee table so if by some chance i don't have something downloading and my computer goes to sleep i can wake it up using Teamviewer and some wake on lan apps.

Has anyone seen this movie before? I just finished watching it with my son, and we were cracking up. It's a British horror/comedy about a work retreat gone horribly wrong. Got kind of semi-crappy reviews. Most said it wasn't laugh-out-loud funny, but Riley and I laughed out loud several times.

Measures to Prevent Overcrowding of Universities
In view of the large number of pupils graduating from the secondary schools, the crowded universities, and the depressed state of the academic labor market, the administrations of public instruction in all German länder, beginning with the Easter recess, 1933, will apply the following regulations in recommending graduates of secondary schools for admission to higher schools of learning: An examining board in every secondary school will consider carefully not only the scholastic records of each individual candidate but also his human qualities, mental aptitudes, and his predilections and general performances, and on this basis decide whether or not to recommend a pupil for advanced studies. The school administration will acquaint the parents of the pupils who cannot be recommended with the decision of the examining board. Likewise, on request, university authorities will be informed of the decision of the secondary school in any case,
