On-Demand Webinar: Financial Transparency – Architecting Successby arcplan
View this 45-minute webinar on how to deliver a transparent, integrated view of company performance that serves both finance and operations.
Financial Transparency – Architecting Success
Recorded Date: December 10, 2013
Duration: 45 min.
Presenters: Dwight deVera, arcplan Senior VP of Solutions Delivery; Jeff Lovett, Teradata VP, Finance & Performance Management
About this webinar:
Too many finance organizations manage their data using people, processes, and systems that are separated from the rest of the organization. This walled-off ecosystem requests data from other areas of the company and produces its own analytics often with different definitions of the same metric e.g. (Revenue, Margin) that conflict with those of line managers. With the ever increasing pace of change in the business this siloed, duplicative approach to financial analytics cannot deliver a transparent, integrated view that serves both finance and operations. Defining a simple architecture optimizes data management and makes it easy to visualize joint opportunities across both organizations.
View this arcplan and Teradata webinar to learn how to use a financial data warehouse as a foundational component of a finance architecture. Content includes techniques for:
- Leveraging insight into financial results, drivers and KPIs to provide visualized, actionable views of financial performance
- Telling the integrated contextual story of a company's operations through common views and analysis
- Ending reliance on averages for more accurate, behavioral measures of customer or product profitability
- Utilizing the next generation of analytical techniques to unearth trends and predict organizational performance
5 BI Worst Practices to Avoidby Dwight deVera
Business intelligence is the key to unlocking insights from data and empowering company leaders to make impactful decisions, act swiftly even in volatile market conditions, and plan strategically for the success of the organization. arcplan is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, and BI has been around at least as long as we have. Over the last 2 decades, we've seen companies make similar mistakes – mistakes that undermine the success of their BI initiatives. Those new to BI should learn from their predecessors. Here are 5 common BI worst practices and how to avoid them:
1) Blindly buying technology without considering your analytical requirements
BI projects do sometimes fail; it's not something anyone likes to talk about, but most of the time these failures can be blamed on a lack of requirements gathering. Vendors like us have to ensure that we understand our customers' requirements inside and out in order to deliver a solution that will be successful and demonstrate concrete ROI. But the truth is, some companies don't have a thorough understanding of their users' needs before they start evaluating solutions. Too many organizations start "feature wars" with vendors and end up buying the solution with the most perceived bells and whistles – features they barely understand and will never have a use for.
This is a much of a problem for customers as it is for vendors; it's our job to ensure that what we're selling you will have value to your organization, and a lot of that comes down to understanding your users' needs. But if you don't understand your users' needs, how can we?
The first thing you must understand before you try to purchase a BI solution is the analytical problems your company is trying to solve. Don't get side-tracked by fancy bells and whistles that will not solve your business problems. Avoid the feature wars and make your shortlisted BI vendors prove that their solution is a match with a custom demo or proof-of-concept application.
2) Using BI as a gateway to Excel
3 Big Data Approaches Based On Your Available Resources & Infrastructureby arcplan
Unearthing previously unimaginable insights from massive data sets is the premise of all the big data hype. Over the past few years as more and more stories come out about how companies are finding competitive advantages in their data, big data has moved beyond the buzz. Enterprises are deploying big data projects at a faster rate every year, and even more plan to do so within the next 2 years.
The extent to which a company can take advantage of big data analysis is determined by the amount of resources and infrastructure it has available. The good news is that now the barriers to entry have been lowered, making it possible for more organizations to meet their goals to transform operations with insights gained from big data. Here are three approaches that companies of any size can take based on their particular situation.
One thing to note is that these are underlying infrastructure approaches, and that you'll still need an analytic engine like arcplan on top in order to interact with, visualize and distribute your insights.
Lots of resources and lots of infrastructure
Before big data was "big data," Teradata was the only game in town. They've been at it for so long and their functionality is so robust – some of their capabilities are second to none. Now other vendors like SAP (with HANA) and Kognitio have their own massively parallel analytic databases. They offer robust processing and querying power on multiple machines simultaneously, enable near real-time MDX (Multidimensional Expressions, for OLAP querying) and SQL (Structured Query Language, the standard way to ask a database a question) queries, and in the case of SAP HANA and Kognitio, are fully in-memory. Not surprisingly, Teradata and SAP HANA come at a high price, but for that high price, the insights you achieve can be very near the speed of thought.
arc|twenty Recap: Our 20th Anniversary User & Partner Conferenceby Stefanie Haase
Things are starting to get back to normal after last week's landmark arc|twenty conference in Düsseldorf, Germany. I can finally catch my breath and think back on the awesome event we just held and all the customers and partners we learned from.
We normally call our annual conference arc|planet, but with it being arcplan's 20th anniversary we decided to mix it up a bit and call it arc|twenty. On October 1st and 2nd, we hosted 250 international participants at the Hyatt Regency Düsseldorf, where everyone gathered for "Information & Celebration" – an apt theme this year as we soaked up information from BI industry experts as much as we celebrated our birthday and the launch of our newest platform release, arcplan 8.
Keynotes and Customer Presentations
Paul Warren from Mars kicked things off on Day 1. He covered the challenges Mars faced when trying to provide centralized, flexible reporting on their complex infrastructure, and how arcplan helped solve the problem.
Our CEO Roland Hölscher then gave a keynote called "Driving Business Analytics – Past, Present, Future," a look back at BI 20 years ago when arcplan was founded as a bridge between IT and business leaders. From my perspective, seeing arcplan's original product "inSight" on a floppy disk was pretty mind-blowing. He covered our history of innovation and really surprised some of the attendees who didn't know that way back in 1994, arcplan was the first vendor to offer real-time access to many data sources and the first vendor with a visual designer for creating reports and other BI content.
Our CTO Hans Peter Wolff gave everyone an exclusive look at the new features of arcplan 8, particularly Responsive Design with HTML5, or what we call DORA (Design Once, Run Anywhere). He was followed over the next 2 days by more than 30 top-notch presentations by business intelligence experts, arcplan customers and partners, and the arcplan development team. A few highlights included…

The next release of arcplan's business intelligence platform officially launched on September 26th. It focuses on efficient mobile BI, making it easier than ever for users and developers to mobile-enable their BI and planning apps for any device.
Watch this webinar on-demand to see:
- A primer on Responsive Design, a concept built into arcplan 8 that enables apps to dynamically adjust their layout to the end user's screen size, resolution and orientation
- An exploration of arcplan 8's new features, as well as a few updates from past releases that you may not be aware of (advanced analytics, commentary, etc.)
- A look at "Views," a new concept in the arcplan Application Designer that enables developers to build responsive applications and print layouts with very little effort
- An in-depth demo of arcplan 8: responsive dashboards, self-service reporting (ad-hoc using Teradata as a data source) and more
This is a must-see not only for our customers and partners, but also for anyone interested in Responsive Design and how it applies to business intelligence.

Star broke through for their first win of the South Canterbury senior cricket season with an uninspiring two-wicket win over Timaru at Ashbury Park 4, on Saturday.
Star chased down Timaru's 92 all-out off 53 overs, with two wickets remaining and 10 overs to spare in the 100-over match.
With the exception of a five-wicket bag from Star left-arm paceman Craig Hinton, the match was a poor spectacle.
Timaru chose to bat first, but were quickly reduced to 4-4, as Hinton and his captain, Jeremy Lane, used the variable speed of a dry pitch to their advantage.
Three batsmen pushing for South Canterbury Hawke Cup selection, Sam Porter (2), Srinivas KS (0) and Zane Sanders (0) all failed with the bat.
Former Timaru Boys' High School (TBHS) batsman Josh Dick showed some resilience and dug his toes in to make 22.
Gerald Piddock also added 14, but the run-rate never got above two runs an over for the entire innings.
Nick Galwey (16 not out) and Hayden Leonard (20) took the score from 53 for eight to 87 for nine by playing sensibly and waiting for a bad ball to score off.
Timaru mustered just two boundaries in their innings.
Had Star not dropped four catches, Timaru's scorecard could have looked far worse.
Hinton finished with five for 20 from 15 overs while fellow seamer Alex McDuff took three wickets.
Star's shaky batting line-up was given a rev-up by the usually sedate Phil McGregor. The opener hit three boundaries in his score of 30, which was an innings desperately needed for the situation.
McGregor's departure made things tense for Star, whose middle-order began to buckle under the pressure of being in control of a game.
They went from 35 for 1 to 85 for eight. The needless run-out of Henry Race for 17, did not help and it was left to the duo who did the damage with the ball, Hinton and Lane, to scramble Star to victory.
Leonard snared three middle-order wickets to spark the collapse.
Celtic captain Craig Davies played a captain's knock of 123 to guide his team to a 38-run win over Temuka at Temuka Oval.
Davies was dropped in the 60s and made the home team pay as he guided his side to 209 all out.
Englishman Matt Woods produced his best effort since arriving in New Zealand to take five for 39 against South Canterbury's top club side, while former South Canterbury representative Dylan Lees took two wickets in his final game for the Magpies before he left the region.
Temuka's reply was spirited but lacked the big score Davies had mustered.
Johnny Geddis managed 53 and Nick Horsley 36 but four wickets from Ben Watson put the brakes on the Temuka innings.
J Geddis 53, C Davies 123, C Hinton 5 for 20, M Woods 5 for 39.

Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon made a stop in Moorhead on his annual trip around the state.
This year he's focusing on increasing voter turnout.
His first stop was at MSUM.
Simon met with the student government and student leaders to hear the thoughts of the students on what challenges prevent other young people from voting.
Simon also told them why young voters are so important.
"We have lagged behind, nationally and in Minnesota when it comes to the rate at which young people vote. I think there's another reason. There is so much at stake for young people as well. You know as some like to say in front of young audiences, you may not be into politics but politics is in to you," Simon says.
Simon also met with city officials and business leaders throughout the day to discuss ways to boost voter turnout for this year's election.

UW Medicine and Seattle Children's are launching a sports concussion program for children, teen and adult athletes to evaluate, treat and provide medical clearance to return to sports. Beginning this summer, patients will be seen at Harborview Medical Center and Seattle Children's Hospital.
The UW Medicine/Seattle Children's Sports Concussion Program will help school and team coaches meet the provisions of a new state law that prohibits young athletes showing signs of a concussion from returning to play without a licensed health-care provider's approval. The law is named after Zackery Lystedt, a Maple Valley teenager who suffered a traumatic brain injury while playing football in October 2006. After sustaining the injury, Zackery returned to play because no one recognized the signs and symptoms of his serious brain injury.
"Concussions can be a serious health problem and they require immediate recognition and proper management," said Dr. Stanley Herring, co-medical director of the Sports Concussion Program, medical director of the UW Medicine Spine Center at Harborview and a team physician for the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Mariners. "With this program, our community is taking an important step forward to protect athletes who play organized sports."
"We see many children, as well as adults with sports injuries at Seattle Children's and Harborview Medical Center," said Dr. Richard G. Ellenbogen, co-medical director of the Sports Concussion Program and professor and chairman of the UW Department of Neurological Surgery. "This collaborative program enhances our ability to diagnose head injuries and provide appropriate treatments to keep young athletes safe and healthy."
The comprehensive program is composed of health-care providers in Rehabilitation Medicine, Neurological Surgery, Neuropsychology, Sports Medicine and Radiology. In addition, the program will provide education on the prevention and treatment of concussions to parents, trainers, athletes, athletic directors and many others involved in youth sports.
As many as 3.8 million sports-and-recreation-related concussions occur each year in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "Early identification of an athlete with a concussion is critical, as athletes who return to play too soon following initial injury are at risk for brain injuries, some of which can be catastrophic as happened to Zackery Lystedt," said Richard H. Adler, President of the Brain Injury Association of Washington. "The Sports Concussion Program brings together some of the nation's top experts on concussions and brain injuries, and will greatly advance the treatment of these injuries to our kids."
Concussions can happen to any athlete, even without losing consciousness. Prevention and proper treatment are essential. Young athletes should seek medical care immediately if they experience any symptoms after a blow or jolt to the head. For more information, visit www.cdc.gov or www.biawa.org.
About Harborview Medical CenterHarborview Medical Center is owned by King County, managed by the University of Washington, and part of the UW Medicine system of care. Harborview is the only Level I adult and pediatric trauma center serving Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. The medical center's mission is to provide exemplary patient care, teaching, research, and community service. For more information, visit www.uwmedicine.org/harborview.
Seattle Children's Hospital, Foundation and Research Institute together deliver superior patient care, advance new discoveries and treatments through pediatric research, and raise funds to create better futures for patients. Consistently ranked as one of the top 10 children's hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report, Seattle Children's Hospital specializes in meeting the unique physical, emotional and developmental needs of children from infancy through young adulthood. Through the collaboration of physicians in nearly 60 pediatric subspecialties, Seattle Children's Hospital provides inpatient, outpatient, diagnostic, surgical, rehabilitative, behavioral, and emergency and outreach services to families from around the world.
Located in downtown Seattle's biotech corridor, Seattle Children's Research Institute is pushing the boundaries of medical research to find cures for pediatric diseases and improve outcomes for children all over the world. Internationally recognized investigators and staff at the research institute are advancing new discoveries in cancer, genetics, immunology, pathology, infectious disease, injury prevention, bioethics and much more.
Seattle Children's Hospital and Research Foundation and Seattle Children's Hospital Guild Association work together to gather community support and raise funds for uncompensated care, clinical care and research. The foundation receives nearly 80,000 gifts each year, from lemonade stand proceeds to corporate sponsorships. Seattle Children's Hospital Guild Association is the largest all-volunteer fundraising network for any hospital in the country, serving as the umbrella organization for 450 groups of people who turn an activity they love into a fundraiser. Support from the foundation and guild association makes it possible for Seattle Children's care and research teams to improve the health and well-being of all kids.

Aaron Sorkin is a screenwriter, producer, and playwright. His work A Few Good Men became a box office hit.
Aaron Sorkin (born June 9, 1961) is an Academy and Emmy award winning American screenwriter, producer, and playwright, whose works include A Few Good Men, The American President, The West Wing, Sports Night, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Charlie Wilson's War, The Social Network, and Moneyball. After graduating from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Musical Theatre in 1983, Sorkin spent much of the 1980s in New York as a struggling, sporadically employed actor. He found his passion in writing plays, and quickly established himself as a promising young playwright. His stage play A Few Good Men caught the attention of Hollywood producer David Brown, who bought the film rights before the play even premiered. Castle Rock Entertainment hired Sorkin to adapt A Few Good Men for the big screen. The film, directed by Rob Reiner, became a box office success.

It is back in the office time and that meant cleaning things up. So it was a very busy day for me. But when I got home Allison and I took Eva to the supermarket to get some groceries for the week. Allison is going to try and make Rachel Ray's falafel burgers this week. That should be tasty. She got a falafel at the Newport Folk Festival yesterday and I tried some. It was tasty, so I am looking forward to the recipe.
On our way to the supermarket Allison saw this dead bug on the driveway. It is not a Cicada, I don't think. When we got home I went up and got the macro lens to shoot this bug. The thing is huge.
Tonight we caught up on the season premiere of Eureka. Oh I have quite a few tv reviews to work on. Must find the time.

Lung Volume Reduction Screening Process
In order to determine if you will be a good surgical candidate for lung volume reduction, you will be put through a very thorough testing and screening process. The screening process will include medical, surgical and smoking histories. Testing will include a high resolution CT scan, quantitative lung perfusion scan, chest X-ray, complete pulmonary function tests before and after bronchodilator, arterial blood gases, plasma cotinine level, exercise stress test, 12 lead EKG, echocardiogram, and a dobutamine stress test of the heart.
You will meet with the LVRS team pulmonologist and the LVRS team coordinator for screening and education. While you are going through the screening and evaluation process, you will also be enrolled in outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation. Depending on certain test results, you may also need to be evaluated by a cardiologist before being approved for surgery. After testing and evaluation, if you are found to be a good surgical candidate, you will then meet with the LVRS team surgeon for final evaluation and scheduling of your surgery.
Pulmonary rehabilitation
Pulmonary rehabilitation is required of all patients considering lung volume reduction surgery. Pre-operatively, patients must complete 20 sessions of pulmonary rehab. Patients will also receive rehab during their immediate post-operative hospital stay. After discharge from the hospital, all LVRS patients must complete 6-8 more sessions of pulmonary rehabilitation. This is usually started within the first week of discharge from the hospital. Pulmonary rehabilitation can be completed at Lutheran Hospital or another pulmonary rehab facility as long as that facility meets national standards.
Pre-operative evaluation
Any patient being evaluated for lung volume reduction surgery must go through an extensive pre-operative screening process. Initial testing needed to determine if a patient is an appropriate surgical includes a CT scan, a VQ scan, a pulmonary function test, and a cycle ergometry ( a test to determine exercise tolerance). These tests are performed at Lutheran Hospital. Laboratory studies are also done in the early screening process. These tests include arterial blood gases and a test to determine if patients are smoke-free. If all preliminary screening and testing reveals that the patient may be a good candidate for lung volume reduction, they then begin the final testing phase. This includes an EKG, an echocardiogram, and a cardiac stress test. If a patient passes this final phase of testing, they are then considered a good candidate for lung volume reduction surgery.

pregnancy and fitness anyone?
Before i got pregnant.. i lost 59lbs and was a pretty healthy eater. I am trying to not give into cravings but when everything makes me nauseous its a lil hard nt to just eat the things i want. My doc told me to just eat what i want and stop worrying about weight gain, because its gonna come. I am 8wks 3d and already gained about 5lbs..additionally i am super bloated. This is my first and i am 30, figure i will just work it off after the baby comes. additionally they have stopped me from jogging an walking because of a spotting scare. So yah there goes my fitness ish.
edit: Hopefully in the second trimester i will be able to participate :)

You shouldn't do anything too new when exercising, if your body isn't use to it, now is not the time to start. As for eating healthy, this is an excellent time to start that, I am no health queen, but I avoid processed foods, and just try to eat a bit of each food group daily. My doc said to not allow my heart rate above 140. I run a horse boarding facility (filling and carrying water buckets, carrying bales of hay, etc.) and am continuing to lightly ride just my horse (when the weather cooperates). The only reason I am only riding lightly is because I found out I am having twins, so I want to be extra careful.
I was also planning on keeping my weight gain as low as possible (around 20 lb or so), but since I'm having twins, I am starting to accept I'll have to gain more in my 2nd and 3rd trimesters. (I'm 8wk6d and have only gained 2 lbs so far).
I'm itching to work out, but have felt so warm during exercise that I'm concerned about overheating. I think I just need to go a little easier (instead of stopping all together like I have in the last week.)

Potato Chip Industry
Given that the new company is now run as a monopoly, how will this benefit the stakeholders involved, such as the government, businesses, and consumers?
The conventional economic case in opposition to a monopoly is that, since the cost structure is the same, a monopolistic business will manufacture goods at a decreased output in order to charge higher prices. The opposite is true in the case of a competitive industry. In a monopolistic market, not only do consumers suffer but also governmental efficiency is questioned (as a result of lower spending and tax rates) (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Another view of Monopolistic markets is that, manufacturers mostly take advantage of the economies as they produce and supply products and services on large scales which results in the fall of average total cost of the production. However, this fall in average cost ultimately increases the monopoly profits. Consumers also get some benefit by enjoying lower prices as this gain is also used to increase productive efficiency of the company (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Producers as well as consumers both are benefitted by enhanced economic welfare as provided by the economies of the scales (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Regulation of monopoly
In order to avoid economic welfare loss caused by the exploitation of the monopoly power, government regulates various monopolies. These regulators not only control the annual increase in the prices but also flourish new competition levels in potato chip industry (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
The potato chip industry enjoys the monopolistic market structure in the Northwest of U.S.. During the year 2008 an investors' group bought the competing potato chip firms and created a new monopoly by merging all firms together. The new company had previously enjoyed a long run competitive equilibrium to be a successful part of a long run economic equilibrium monopoly. However, the newly formed monopoly will prosper more by altering the operations but this situation will only be beneficial for the monopoly of the company only a few stakeholders will gain a little portion of it (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
The entry in a monopolistic market is easy because majority of the firms are present in the industry (Case, Fair, & Oster, 2009, p. 303). Exactly same products are not produced by the firms in a monopolistic market; in fact the same goods are manufactured by each firm but with a different touch. And as each product is different, therefore each firm sets a different price for its product. Thus a variety is offered to the customers by the potato chip industry as well (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
An individual company which regulates an exclusive commodity and due to technology or some other obstacles has no rivals is said to be operating in a pure monopoly. In monopoly a product is produced in such circumstances as would have been produced in a competitive market at a greater price as compared to what its price would have been in a market where competition id present. The main point of change between 'perfect competition' and monopoly is in its evaluation of the in which a firm reacts on one aspect only: the demand curve of the monopolist moves downwards. This is also the case with the monopolistically competitive firm. In the long-term stable situation, it is only a distinct instance of monopoly where no profits are being generated. This analysis should enhance our appraisal related to the way a firm is acting. The reason is that it teaches us, to a certain extent, about the communication between the firms in a market. Besides this, it gives no information about the single firm (Maurya, 2008, p. 178).
In the context of the potato chip company, it is a new company and is going to be run as a monopoly. This will affect stakeholders in many ways. Government is going to be very much affected by this change in the functioning of the company, because the potato chips company, being the only one in the country would raise the prices of the chips thereby decreasing the income which in turn will reduce the level of expenditure as well as investment. At one side, a new company will benefit a few suppliers with its high volume while others would be at a loss. The increase in the prices with a decrease in the quantity would adversely affect the consumers (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Furthermore, we can also suppose that a monopoly generally reduces the development and advancement in the potato chip industry and enhances the prices for the customers. A monopolistic environment creates such circumstances that the need to contend whether with regard to competitive benefits, pricing or servicing ceases to exist. It is probable that it will adversely impact the customers. On the other hand, monopolies play a vital role in steadying the situation of the potato chip market. This will present a favourable situation for the interested parties who although will not be seeing any rising profits but will observe stable profits. Here, the government plays the role of a wildcard which may follow an anti-trust case against the market to officially disintegrate the business (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
2. Given the transition from a monopolistically competitive firm to a monopoly, what will be the changes with regard to prices and output in both of these market structures?
Some of the significant differences for the potato chip industry are given below:
Price and marginal revenue: the price is equal to the marginal revenue in a perfectly competitive market whereas in a monopolistic market, price is always kept higher than the marginal price (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Product differentiation: A perfectly competitive market does not have a product differentiation. Each commodity is perfectly the same and is an absolute substitute for any product. A monopolistic market has such a wide range of product differentiation that a monopolized product has no substitute present. That particular product is supplied by the monopolist only. A consumer either has to buy the product from the monopolist or do without the product (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Elasticity of Demand: The variation in terms of percentage in the demand as a result of the variation of one percent in the relative price is called the elasticity of demand. There would be a comparatively inelastic demand curve for a prosperous monopoly. Hurdles to enter a market are denoted by the low coefficient of elasticity. For a perfectly competitive demand curve, the coefficient of elasticity is infinite (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Surplus Profits: If profit is greater than the usual anticipated return on investment then such profits are called positive or excess profit. In the short-term, excess profits can be obtained but this can draw the competitors who by freely entering into the market can lower the prices and this would result in decreasing excess profits to nil. In such a case monopoly is better as it can restrict the entry of the competitors and thus can restrict the excess profit (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Profit Maximization: A monopolistic firm operates in such a manner that its price is same as the marginal cost thereby maximising the profits. The profits are capitalized upon by making a product in such a way that marginal cost and the marginal revenue is the same. A monopolistic company has a perfectly elastic i.e. A flat curve. The directions are not comparable. Price line, demand and average revenue curve are all identical. Marginal revenue curve is constant because the average revenue curve is also constant. Marginal revenue curve is equal to the demand curve, while the average price remains the same. Demand curve and price line are also identical to each other (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
Supply Curve: One to one relationship between quantity supplied and the price does exist in a competitive market. A monopolistic market fails to trace a curve for short-term supply, because there is no unique quantity supplied for a stated price. No supply relationship exists in a monopolistic market. It was noted by a number of researchers that a modification in demand does bring about a change in the prices but the output remains the same, while in a few cases the output may change while the price remains the same. Monopoly is produced when marginal cost and revenue get on an equal footing. For a demand curve, the supply curve is formed with a combination of price and quantity at a point where marginal cost and revenue equals each other. A supply point is going to be formed with a new equilibrium, which is achieved with the shifting of the demand curve which in turn shifts the marginal curve as well. In no conventional sense, the locus of these points is going to be a supply curve (Krugman and Obstfeld, 2008).
In monopoly, a direct relationship exists between production and the profit and that is why the prices shoot up. The amount of labour and the price of the chips are directly linked to the…[continue]

The platform at the Radisson at Lackawanna Station hotel that once clanged and banged as trains bustled in and out was filled with much smoother sounds Sunday night.
Jazz legend Freddy Cole and his quartet were on the main stage as the final act at the ninth annual Scranton Jazz Festival, and the audience was enjoying the cool sounds of a cool evening.
"(Jazz is) an integral part of American culture," Antoin D'Atagnan of Dunmore said from his place in the audience. "It's like the national anthem; when people listen to it they listen with their emotions."
By the time Mr. Cole, the younger brother of the late, great Nat King Cole, took the stage, organizers said they had already sold 800 tickets throughout the weekend.
"Friday was packed, and we had the largest Saturday we've had in eight years," executive committee member Laurie Cadden of Dunmore said. "The weather was on our side and we had wonderful jazz music all weekend long."
Mrs. Cadden was a founding member of the Jazz Festival nine years ago, and she has watched it grow year after year.
"It's just incredible. We're going to start planning for our 10th anniversary soon," Mrs. Cadden said. "To have something that lasts and has been able to thrive for 10 years, what more could you ask for?"
The Jazz Festival began Friday with a performance by the Indigo Moon Brass Band and a Jazz Walk to coincide with First Friday Scranton.
Mr. Cole closed the festival, performing with his own quartet of musicians. He said while this was not his first time in Scranton, he was excited to play at the festival.
"Jazz music, you can't beat it. It's the one thing I keep doing," he said. "It's one thing we can say is ours. Music is the one thing we all have in common."

NextStage's work with agencies has taught me that one of marketing's great mysteries is determining where the customer is in the buying cycle (we're developing a tool. Drop me a line if you're interested). This kind of mystery intrigues me. In case you haven't heard, NextStage's background isn't in marketing, advertising or anything similar. Our origins are in completely different disciplines and our philosophy is "understanding through diversity". This gives us incredible flexibility when developing solutions to marketing and similar problems.
So when I hear "we can't figure out where people are in their buying cycle" I think "But the human brain only recognizes time in certain ways and the mind in certain other ways. Both mind and brain demonstrate their understandings differently. How can understanding where someone is in the buying cycle be a mystery?"
This month's (Aug '07) columns will explore how to make use of the mind and brain's concepts of time in online marketing. We'll start with some examples of how the mind and brain handle time information differently:
|The clock shows that it's 6:30pm, therefore it's time to prepare dinner
|I'm registering hunger pains, therefore it's time to eat
|The clock shows it's 10:30pm, therefore it's time to get ready for bed
|I'm registering the onset of sleep patterns, therefore it's time to sleep
|The car is showing signs of rust and is costing more to maintain than it's worth, therefore it's time to buy a new car
|I can't eat it, mate with it and if I fall asleep in it I could get hurt, therefore I'm not sure what biological need is serves, therefore don't bother me with it
The brain's focus is "right now". The mind plans and remembers. Let's consider one way to make use of how brains and minds work so they'll work together to boost conversions on your websites.
Making Future Business Happen "Right Now"
I was interviewed earlier today regarding NextStage's work analyzing the Presidential campaign (I'll post a notice and link on BizMediaScience when the interview goes live). NextStage analyzes communications, not politics, and I mentioned that a marketing challenge for campaigners is postponing the sale.
Postponing the sale?
Yes, as in consumers are going to buy the product twice, once starting in Feb '08 then again in Nov '08. It's bad enough they're not going to buy the product right now, campaign strategists have to convince consumers — voters — to buy the product twice, maybe even switching products between the two purchases.
This can present a real challenge. Campaign sites can't have emblazoned across them "Vote for Me Now!" but product and service sites can. It's called the "Buy" button. The closest message a campaign site can get across is "Elect Me President!" and hope that message keeps getting into the visitor's mind so that when "right now" occurs (in the voting booth) the brain does what the mind suggests.
What I've described above is a useful tool for marketers and advertisers to remember; demonstrate a positive future event (what the mind can deal with) often enough and the brain will act upon it when the time is right. Example: it is in the mid-90s today (2 Aug 07) as I write this. Show me a convertible driving along a country lane with the top down in bright sunshine and you're talking to the brain. The image correlates with and continues my current experience (warm day, bright sunshine, want to play), therefore my brain registers it as a "right now" image. If I need a car right now, you have me.
But if I need a car right now, I mean, really, right now, I'm down at the dealer. I'm not shopping on line.
Let's say that I don't need a car "right now". Instead I'm noticing some rust spots on old faithful and I'm getting tired of being nickle-and-dimed with maintenance costs. I'm not really thinking "right now", I'm thinking "it would be nice to have…" Those are mind-style thoughts. I'm making plans for a purchase. It may be in the mid-90s as I sit here in NH, but I'm really thinking about fall and winter. Show me a car navigating through snow and you have the equivalent of "Elect Me President!". You're priming the visitor, giving the mind a message it can store and send to the brain when the time is right.
When they want vanilla, give them Vanilla
Part of the mystery between brain and mind is appreciating that when people want something they want it now. When they're on your site they might not want your product or service right now but they do want something now, so find out what they want and give it to them. NextStage calls this "When the customer wants vanilla, give them Vanilla."

Bells and whistles are great at getting someone's attention and use them wisely. If someone came to your site to download product specs, make that download the easiest thing in the world to do. You've satisfied the brain's "right now" and can include content in the specs for the mind to pass on to the brain when the moment is right.

I arrived late and decided to have a meal in the hotel restaurant, it was fabulous!! Amazing cuisine, quite expensive (3 courses -27 euros) but well worth it.
Not really enough staff on duty.
friendly and helpful staff; excellent support of cyclist's needs
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

How do I change the vertical spacing between <para> tags ? [Closed]
The Question has been closedby
I have made some changes for barcode layout (see the image). However, I can't control the margins between these lines (<para><para/>), as I want to narrow this area. I have tried to gather all these lines in one <para><para/> tag breaking them using < br/> tag with no luck.
Is there any other tag that doesn't have these margins by default? or perhaps I need to change the style for this para tag in someway?
Thanks in advance..%
It's easy, just add a new
paraStyle inside
<stylesheet> :
<paraStyle name="someName" spaceBefore="0" spaceAfter="0"/>
Then you can use it on your
para tag as follows:
<para style="someName">Some Text</para>
Note: You can change the number as you see fit, you can even use a negative number.
Negative numbers solved the problem.
Question Extension: This solved the problem between paragraphs, but a long line of text will automatically break to the next line with the same paragraph, and it seems 'spaceBefore' & 'spaceAfter' can't control it (see new image).
Salam :-) Can you add
showBoundary="1" to your <template> tag and post a screenshot of the result?
Ahlan :-) I update the question with the requested picture. Could you please lead me to a good resource (book, article, tutorial..etc) to have a look at all possible tags & associated attributes?
I see the problem, you need to give the
frame more width, you can check the rml2pdf documentation here, it has everything you need: http://www.reportlab.com/docs/rml2pdf-userguide.pdf you can also check their beginner tutorial here: http://www.reportlab.com/docs/rml-for-idiots.pdf

- strawberry jam and clotted cream, to serve
Once available in Britain for just a brief period during the summer, strawberries are now a year…
Preheat the oven to 220C/gas 7/fan 200C and lightly butter a baking sheet (unless you're using a non-stick sheet). Tip the flour into a mixing bowl with the salt. Shoot in the butter, then rub together with your fingers to make a reasonably fine crumbed mixture, lifting to aerate the mixture as you go. Try not to overrub, as the mixture will be lighter if it's a little bit flaky. Now stir in the sugar.
Measure the buttermilk, then mix in the milk to slacken it. Make a bit of a well in the middle of the flour mixture with a round-bladed knife, then pour in most of this buttermilk mixture, holding a little bit back in case it's not needed. Using the knife, gently work the mixture together until it forms a soft, almost sticky, dough. Work in any loose dry bits of mixture with the rest of the buttermilk. Don't overwork at this point or you will toughen the dough.
Lift the ball of soft dough out of the bowl and put it on to a very lightly floured surface. Knead the mixture just 3-4 times to get rid of the cracks.
Pat the dough gently with your hands to a thickness of no less than 2cm and no more than 2.5cm. Dip a 5.5cm round fluted cutter into a bowl of flour – this helps to stop the dough sticking to it, then cut out the scones by pushing down quickly and firmly on the cutter with the palm of your hand – don't twist it.You will hear the dough give a big sigh as the cutter goes in. Gather the trimmings lightly then pat and cut out a couple more scones.
Place on the baking sheet and sift over a light dusting of flour or glaze if you wish. Bake for 10-12 minutes until risen and golden. Cool on a wire rack, uncovered if you prefer crisp tops, or covered loosely with a cloth for soft ones.
Serve with strawberry jam and a generous mound of clotted cream (Cornish people put jam first, then cream, Devonians the other way round). Eat them as fresh as you can.

What a great recipe. And foolproof. I had a sticky blob that I could not control. Realised I had no cookie cutter (?) at last minute so used a glass which was a disaster so ended up throwing lumps onto the baking tray and they STILL turned out great !!! What a luxury to have freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam :0)
I was keen to find a foolproof scone recipe, so that I could make some good scones to go with our new found treasure of clotted cream in New Zealand - woohoo! These, whilst not the best scone I ever had, were probably the best I ever made. Shame there are only six of them! Best of all I liked the fact that they didn't have that horrid salty tongue tingly baking powder taste.
Oh my word, superb! I didn't have buttermilk so added some lemon juice to semi skimmed milk and it worked out just fine. I also added a handful of sultanas to the mixture. I made quite large scones - 4 large and 1 smaller with the leftover dough - so they needed a little extra cooking time. Soft and fluffy on the inside, crunchy on the outside. Pure bliss with jam and clotted cream. Very happy!
Vickyvp, if you go to www.convert-me.com there you can convert Metric/U.S./U.K. measurements with 1 click! Easy. Hope that helps, Lorraine.
I have a terrible track record with scones. Always, ALWAYS a disaster. HOWEVER...this time, I have ended up with the most perfect scones EVER!!! Only got 6 (and a scrappy "cook's" one) out of the mixture at the quantities listed - but they rose, they are golden, they are light, fluffy and absolutely delicious! Like some others, I didn't have buttermilk, so added the dash of lemon juice (from a bottle!) to the milk, also made a point of aerating the flour/fat mix by lifting it several times and allowing to drop through my fingers back into the bowl; used a palette knife to stir and was careful not to over-mix. My end result mixture was quite "wet" though, had to add a little flour so it would keep its shape. Very pleased with end result! Definitely 5 stars!
