Due to a constantly changing environment, a poor understanding of the users needs and preferences, as well as a lack of willingness to modify existing organizational structures and decision models, the full economic potential of Web Information Systems (WIS) has not been realized by now. The data object types of the presented meta model, the Extended World Wide Web Design Technique (eW3DT), provide hypertext designers with a conceptual, user-centric framework and graphical notation for the construction of both, reference and customized models, during the software development process of commercial WIS. A reference model as a normative concept represents an abstraction of a typical company, its functional units, or its (Web) Information Systems and is intended to streamline the design and implementation of complex applications at reduced costs. As precondition for pursuing a partial globalization strategy, eW3DT distinguishes between technical and content-specific responsibilities for designing, implementing, and maintaining WIS.
Reference models are characterized by a high level of abstraction and provide designers of customized, company-specific models with a referential solution which merely has to be adapted according to individual corporate strategies and technical restrictions. In the case of WIS, they have to integrate a conceptual data and navigational model and - by choosing a system-specific optimal level of abstraction - should equally be applicable for structured as well as unstructured information. As one of the primary means of standardized communication regarding WIS architectures these models support cooperative efforts to design such systems. In order to serve as an efficient interface to people with very heterogeneous knowledge and expectations, diagrams have to include the essential information in an illustrative, clearly arranged, and comprehensible way.
Figure 1. WIS Analysis & Design
Results of research activities formulated in recipient-oriented reference models may be used by any organization to build up new WIS from scratch or to extend and adapt existing ones. The reference model together with the deduced conclusions represent a basic guideline for deducting customized models, streamlining the implementation of complex WIS at reduced costs (see Figure 1).
By avoiding structural inconsistencies and mistakes companies are able to improve the quality of their systems, usually at low costs in comparison with acquiring the necessary know-how from external commercial organizations. However, empirical validation of hypotheses concerning success factors of WIS in different lines of business remains vital since standard software metrics frequently fail to evaluate the structure of WIS adequately. Furthermore, no valid theory currently exists to "assess formally whether a conceptual model of a hypertext is clear to readers. The only feasible alternative is testing the hypertext in as real a situation as possible" [20].
In this section methods and tools for WIS analysis and design are described and compared. Due to the limitations found in many existing design concepts, Bichler and Nusser developed the World Wide Web Design Technique (W3DT) together with a working prototype called WebDesigner [HREF1] which supports the graphical, interactive design of complex WIS from a users perspective [5]. Comparable academic or commercial modeling tools like the WebArchitect [HREF2], SchemaText [HREF3], or Microsoft's FrontPage [HREF4] to name just a few provide similar "authoring-in-the-large" [7] functionalities. However, most available products do not address responsibilities for content production, system implementation, or regular maintenance.
Other approaches like the widely accepted RMM methodology [15] or OOHDM [23;24] are especially suited for highly structured information domains [2]. In most cases they succeed traditional hypermedia design techniques like HDM [8;9] which themselves are under constant development. In contrast to these database-oriented concepts, W3DT was built from scratch to support the requirements of unstructured, hierarchical WIS and to visualize them from a recipients perspective. Utilizing practical experiences in developing WIS, the graphical notation of the design tool was further refined and used to analyze a number of deployed applications. With special regard to reference modeling of commercial WIS, the Extended World Wide Web Design Technique (eW3DT) was developed [22].
The concept of hierarchy is essential for the architecture of any real-world WIS [25]. On the other hand - as far as database-centric hypermedia applications are concerned - there is no adequate substitute for entity-relationship or object-oriented approaches. In this sense both W3DT and eW3DT are not intended to replace existing hypertext design methodologies but to act as hierarchically oriented, complementary communication tools between researchers, system analysts, and the management responsible for the decision to implement WIS. For developing increasingly complex applications, therefore, it is recommended and necessary to integrate the user-centric eW3DT with technical, more database-centric meta models like RMDM, HDM, OOHDM, or any of the other approaches based on entity relations. This integration has to be carefully planned in accordance with existing corporate design and implementation guidelines and would ideally be supported by an integrated WIS analysis and design tool supporting each of the three model layers of Figure 1.
The Dexter Hypertext Reference Model divides the structure of hypertext systems into three different layers: the run-time layer for accessing individual documents, the content-specific within-component layer, and the storage layer [11]. In the case of WIS, every reference model has to integrate a conceptual data and navigational model [14]. It should satisfy the need for modeling structured as well as unstructured information by choosing a system-specific optimal level of abstraction. Accordingly, the data object types of the presented, document-oriented meta model eW3DT focus on the storage layer of the Dexter model, describing the structure of hypertext systems as a finite set of hierarchically arranged and associatively linked elements.
The composition of the document itself, described by the within-component layer, is functionally dependent, outside of the hypertext model per se and therefore not part of the reference model. Since the simple run-time layer of the Dexter model, which relies on the fundamental concept of the instantiation of a component, is already predetermined from the perspective of the content provider, eW3DT merely has to provide an appropriate set of data and navigational components.
Besides its content, every hypertext document includes a logical and a layout structure [16]. The WIS architecture specifies a number of processes which are responsible for presenting documents in conformity with the specifications of other layers. The relative importance of all these components varies depending on the specific data object type and its instantiation.
By combining inductive and deductive methods the process of creating conceptual WIS representations is both top-down and bottom-up. As depicted in Figure 1, eW3DT provides a framework for the construction of both abstract reference and customized, company-specific models during the software development process of commercial WIS (Figure 2). Note the difference regarding the level of abstraction between meta models (eW3DT, RMDM, HDM etc.), reference models, and customized models [22;13]. Analogous to similar approaches in business engineering, developing WIS requires a sequence of revolutionary and evolutionary processes (Figure 2; [21]). Analysis, design, and prototyping exclusively rely on internal network architectures ("Revolution"). After thoroughly testing system consistency, every designer has to make sure that the contents as well as their presentation meet all quantitative and qualitative requirements. As soon as unrestricted access is granted to the general public, there follows a cyclic sequence of usage, analysis, (re-)design, and implementation ("Evolution").
Hypertext documents are authored, redesigned, or eliminated by the WIS designer or the department(s) responsible for the content of a particular domain. The process of WIS creation requires creativity and intelligent planning during the initial analysis, design, and implementation which is referred to as "internal (r)evolution" in Figure 2. For that reason Martin [19] introduces the term "intelligent evolution". With special emphasis on corporate business behavior, he compares three types of evolution with the classic Darwinian evolution based on the survival of the fittest:
One of the problems regarding modeling and developing hypermedia applications is the strong interdependency between presentation (user interface) and representation (explicit structuring) of published information. Many meta models and design methods for traditional client-server architectures lack the necessary object types for modeling this interdependency and are better suited for highly structured segments. This was one of the reasons behind the development of W3DT respectively eW3DT. By conveying the intrinsic structure in a clear manner eW3DT also provides analysts with an increased understanding of the actual application. Therefore, in addition to designing WIS, it may also be used to visualize the structure of deployed systems and to compare them with each other. A simple example of how to generate eW3DT diagrams from existing documents will be presented below.
Not every marginal structural analogy increases economic or technical utility. In order to serve as an efficient interface to people with very heterogeneous knowledge and expectations, diagrams have to include the essential information in a consistent, non-redundant, and readable way [3]. They serve as interpretative guideline for these people and usually incorporate design recommendations to improve the usability [1] of WIS as well. Diagrams which rely on eW3DT are a user-centric combination of structural and process diagrams [17] requiring an explicit explanation of symbols. This explanation will be given in the following sections.
Every eW3DT data object type represents a content-specific variation of a standard symbolic element, depicted in Figure 3, and is equivalent to an atomistic unit of the Dexter Hypertext Reference Model.
Figure 3. Standard Symbolic Elements
In this paper the data object types will be referred to as information object types, the objects themselves as information objects or documents. Independent of iconic similarity and real equivalence to a given object (hypertext compound document), every information object type defines a general profile for describing the characteristic attributes of this object. Each of these profiles corresponds to a set of abstractions commonly found in WIS. The attributes assign information on structural position, maintenance intensity, and organizational integration to the modeling constructs. In addition to the name of each object, the eW3DT standard symbolic element includes the following specifications:
In case of the standard symbolic element for WIS analysis (see Figure 3), the rectangular symbols representing different types of hypertext compound documents incorporate a completely different set of attributes in comparison with the eW3DT design meta-model. While the color respectively the shading of objects represents their accumulated number of HTTP requests during a certain period (N_Hits), the style of connecting links between the documents represents the frequency with which these links where followed by customers. In addition to that, the average viewing time of WIS documents in seconds is displayed in the field (Avg_Vtime). With the (Info) button, detailed information about the object in question is accessible (e.g., a list of host names / IP addresses of the most important visitors, aggregated number of entries and exits, and so forth). Being part of the user interface, the two arrow symbols in the bottom right corner do not represent an attribute of the object but provide the analyst with the option to move between lower-level and upper-level diagrams.
Figure 4 categorizes the object types of eW3DT into the three functional segments: "Information", "Navigation", and "Structure". For each information object type with the exception of DBase there is a static class and a class for dynamically generated documents. In the case of DBase, internal and external data structures are distinguished since the content structure itself is inherently dynamic - a fact which doesn't require explicit visualization. Structural variability is the relevant characteristic to make the distinction between static and dynamic information objects. If the structure is changing, the dynamic process becomes part of the architecture, independent of technical realization. Even if documents are automatically generated out of database queries, their inherent character might be of static nature. With the help of the elements of Figure 4 it is possible to construct intuitively comprehensible and illustrative graphical descriptions of complex WIS from a users perspective, no matter if they are intended for a real organization (customized model) or for an industry-specific analysis (reference model).
Figure 4. Object Types of eW3DT, Categorized into the Functional Segments Information, Navigation, and Structure
A Page object is used to model multimedia compound documents. In many cases these objects represent the logical end of a hierarchical tree. As already mentioned, the internal structure of a Page itself is not supported by the eW3DT meta model.
Alternative navigational paths and access mechanisms belong to the object type Menu. The respective objects are usually found at higher hierarchical levels of WIS. They are strongly influenced by considerations regarding the optimal width and depth of the contents offered - a tradeoff between usability criteria and efforts to reduce the maximum number of hierarchical levels. In contrast to menus, an Index contains a complete enumeration of links, for example a companys staff or a list of available products. Especially for statically implemented Index documents, maintenance is vital due to the well known fact that links pointing to missing, inactive, or irrelevant sources reduce the perceived quality of WIS substantially.
Interaction includes various interactive elements, characterized mainly by their content and layout structures. For the designer of a conceptual model, technical details are only of secondary importance. During the earlier stages of the WIS development process it does not matter whether an interaction will finally be implemented using FORM-fields of HTML, Java-Applets, MS ActiveX-objects, or comparable technologies.
The electronic distribution of software as well as any application-specific transmission of data blocks requires secure and efficient mechanisms to transport files of various formats and sizes in a platform-independent way from the content provider to WIS users. These mechanisms may be visualized with the eW3DT object type File. In this context the term "presentation as used above also refers to the execution of an application on the respective target platform.
Figure 5. eW3DT object type DBase
Due to an ever increasing demand for up-to-date and consistent information it seems justified to expect many company-wide internal databases to be connected to more and more complex WIS over a relatively short period of time. Economically it is not feasible and definitely not in compliance with the basic assumptions behind a reference model to deal with all these databases explicitly. Any attempt to do so would result in a redundant remodeling of existing internal structures, not to mention the heterogeneous character of corporate database architectures. With eW3DT, only user inputs which lead to the creation of new database entries or the update of stored information are taken into consideration. The reserved symbol for these user inputs is the eW3DT object type DBase (see Figure 5), available in two different representations: internal and external.
While internal DBase-objects refer to various corporate databases, the external ones include cooperative databases or databases held by other institutions. For objects marked with a lock appropriate security mechanisms have to be implemented due to the sensitivity of the provided information. Again, since technical details are only of secondary relevance for conceptual modeling, eW3DT does not distinguish between different protocols like SSL, S-HTTP, SET, etc. or between the hierarchical network or application layer these protocols rely on. The [R]ead- and [W]rite-flags indicate the user's right to access individual entries while the star symbols on the bottom right corner of the object describe the update intervals required, similar to the maintenance intensity of documents. '*' is used for static permanent data, '**' for occasionally updated entries (e.g., user profiles, marketing information, compiled Web statistics), and '***' for highly volatile transactions records (e.g., payment data, shopping lists, log-files documenting access patterns and user behavior, etc.).
With regard to the increasing complexity of contents and navigational elements, the complete structure of a WIS cannot be shown in just one single diagram. Since it causes an unnecessary loss of information, the object type Diagram of W3DT - predecessor of eW3DT - was eliminated. The required reduction in complexity is now achieved by hierarchical diagram structuring with the Primary Structuring Element as shown in Figure 4. The information object type as well as additional attributes of the corresponding document located in the lower-level diagram are already part of the upper-level diagram, thus increasing clarity and usefulness of the graphical representation.
External Links are used to depict hyperlinks to external information sources which are not part of the corporate WIS, for example those of other companies, standardization comities, or governmental organizations. The object type Multiple Sources plays a vital part in reducing redundancy within the diagrams and may be found where multidimensional selections offer access to large amounts of data (the product lines depicted in Figure 8 provide a good practical example for this object type). Multiple destinations, on the other hand, frequently emerge from the implementation of an Index and are represented by the dynamic version of the navigational object type Representative Link which will be described in the following section.
The navigation within hypertext structures as well as the development of WIS are non-linear, non-sequential activities which require an appropriate visual (symbolic) representation. Navigational design has to counteract the reduction of coherence in WIS which frequently arises due to an inadequate consideration of the specific linguistic features of hypertext environments. Static Links are implemented permanently, only structural redesigns of WIS require an adaptation. Dynamic Links refer to customized, automatically generated documents. The Representative Link (REP) as a sub-type of the Dynamic Link points to different versions of static information which are delivered depending on the existence of certain conditions or responding to a certain user behavior specified in advance. As already mentioned, multiple destinations within WIS are modeled with Representative Links as well. Last, but not least, the Horizontal Link (INCLUDE) - not a hyperlink in the narrow sense - enables designers to deal with heterogeneous information objects (so-called composites, using the terminology of the Dexter Hypertext Reference Model; [11]). In order to increase flexibility and reduce the number of necessary object types at the same time, a dedicated symbol for bi-directional links does not exist in eW3DT. Bi-directional access structures, paths, or guided tours may always be constructed using combinations of uni-directional navigational object types.
In order to demonstrate the semantic relationships between the eW3DT data object types described above, the process of analyzing deployed WIS will be demonstrated in the following. The real-world WIS document of Figure 6 is compared with its abstract eW3DT representation depicted in Figure 7. In addition to that, the simple retailing reference solution visualizes standard WIS components of an electronic retailing storefront at reduced complexity.
While reference models are useful mainly for the purpose of deducting customized and technical models, eW3DT diagrams of deployed WIS help to understand, analyze, and improve these applications. For this purpose the actual diagram should represent the structure of the system as close to reality as possible. However, as in most cases internal technical details are either not relevant or not available at all (e.g., if an analyst concentrates on a competitors WIS), using eW3DT for analyzing existing documents or sites focuses on the same level of abstraction as the customized design models discussed in the introduction of this paper.
Figure 6 shows the sub-component "product showroom of Compaqs corporate WIS (an application which is in no way related to eW3DT). However, in the course of constructing a reference model for the computer industry, many deployed WIS were analyzed and compared, and the document above basically was chosen for its typical contents, a clear layout, and the rather low complexity as far as the number of menu items and cross references are concerned.
If we take a closer look at the structure of the document, it is possible to distinguish between different types of information objects. It is obvious that the {Product Showroom} itself is a Menu for accessing different product categories offered for the home computing segment. Three Indices represent collections of {Desktops}, {Notebooks}, {Monitors}, and {Printers}. {Handelds}, however, are modeled as a Page since the document provides information on just one single product ("C Series 2015c"). While {Compaq Classics} is a typical example of a Menu specifying a hierarchical access pattern, the two Interactions support direct access to current news and to new products for informed customers who exactly know in advance what they are looking for.
In order to demonstrate the applicability of eW3DT for more complex user interactions on a conceptual level this section presents a very abstract example of how a reference model for commercial retailing transactions in the computer industry might be structured and visualized. Designing WIS seen as an incremental and opportunistic human activity includes "backtracking and erratic switching among the following activities: thinking about ideas, production, reorganization, modification, and evaluation [20]. During all these sub-processes and for the {Company Storefront} as the first hierarchical layer in particular, every designer should bear in mind recommendations with regard to a limited number of unrelated elements appearing in a single document. Being able to build and represent complex structures does not imply that the recipient absorbs them in the intended way. As a consequence, every hypermedia access structure has to find a balance between horizontal and vertical integration density.
After accessing the {Company Storefront} - e.g., http://www.companyname.com/index.html - the WIS user is provided with a {Company Profile} as well as a number of {Product Families} to identify his general requirements. As already mentioned above, this access mechanism is a good example for the object type Multiple Sources. Having selected a certain category, the potential customer is able to choose between {Product Variations} more specifically. Information on the product in question is accessible via a Representative Link pointing to the description {Product X} with optional {Technical Details} for further information. Note that in contrast to W3DT-models [4], sub-diagrams relying on the syntax of eW3DT may have more than one single entry point. Should the {Bargaining Process} turn out to be satisfactory for both parties, the customer is able to immediately place an online-order by filling out the {Order form}. Since being associated via a Horizontal Link, this Interaction is already included in the document {Product X}. If all specifications have been entered correctly, a separate market transaction is triggered between the seller of the PC and a financial clearing institution. The secondary, value adding process has to settle the accounts between seller and buyer, no matter if the financial clearing institution is a bank, a credit card organization, an issuer of electronic money, or any combination of these virtual payment methods. As soon as a certain form of payment is agreed upon and verified by the seller, the database entries {Accounting}, {Hardware Turnover}, and {Customer Profiles} are updated and a {Confirmation of Order} including the estimated time of delivery can be sent immediately, either per e-mail or directly via a dynamic Page. In contrast to the {Shopping List} the three DBase-objects {Accounting}, {Hardware Turnover}, and {Customer Profiles} contain sensitive information which is visualized by the lock on the left side of the symbols. The access privileges of the customer, indicated by the [R]ead- and [W]rite-flags, only allow him to view and edit the {Shopping List} as well as certain segments of the {Customer Profile}.
The whole transaction is completed with the physical distribution of the product. In case of immaterial goods (e.g., informational products like software, news, financial information services, etc.) the actual delivery of the product is executed without delay, a customized File sent to the buyer eliminates the need for physical distribution.
With the continuing introduction of new technologies, strategic management decisions have to consider innovation as a crucial parameter, particularly as far as information and communication technologies are concerned. Innovation substantially reduces the practical value of traditional communication models. This paper purported to examine the role of conceptual, user-centric modeling of WIS as a primary means of standardized communication between academic research, management, and the designers of WIS. The development and potential of eW3DT as the "language" used to consistently communicate industry-specific knowledge has been presented together with two examples for WIS analysis (inductive) and design (deductive). The results suggest that there still is a lack of non-redundant, readable meta models for WIS which do not ignore the hierarchical, recipient-oriented structure of current WIS. Complementary to approaches primarily focusing on technical issues, eW3DT is intended to drive structural design and to streamline the decision processes necessary for implementing complex WIS.
However, the eW3DT meta model merely represents a starting point. Additional research on the integration with database-centric approaches is needed. The syntax of eW3DT should be made available for existing WIS modeling prototypes like the already mentioned WebDesigner in order to be of practical utility. Finally, the applicability of the proposed framework for customized transactions of higher complexity and adaptive systems has to be evaluated. This assessment will possibly lead to a further extended meta model, providing additional information object types as well as an optimized graphical representation.

This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3 AM3+ AMD 970 + SB950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
Pros: Had all the ports and features in a low cost board I was looking for
Cons: Never really worked...I was replacing Motherboard, CPU and Memory in my current computer. With my current PSU which works fine on my other board the board would power on for around a second then shut off, more like a blink of power then nothing. So I figured it was my PSU. Got a new one, the new PSU wouldnt power the board at all unless I jumped PS_ON and Common pins. So i tried a third lower watt power supply which powered the board fine. I RMA'd the PSU and got a new one. New one did the same thing...So I RMA'd the board because it didnt seem to play well with higher watt PSU's. The board came, exact same symptoms. All 3 PSU's i tried work fine on 2 other boards, only 1 PSU (a 400W PSU) worked on this board. I contacted Gigabyte 3-4 times which gave me the normal responses of, breadboard it, try without PS4 plug etc, which I had already done. Finally I got one tech on the phone that said it must be something with that model and to send it back to the store and get a different board. I contacted Newegg with these recommendations and because it was beyond the return period they had to contact Gigabyte. They did finally give me a refund and I ordered an ASUS. Received the ASUS last night, put it in with all the same hardware as my original build and bam, works fine. Tried it with the new PSU, works fine on that was well. I actually got it loaded last night and am using it to write this review.
The only thing I could find was that the 400W PSU was putting out 4.4V on the PS_ON pin where as the other two PSU's were putting out 5.1V It seems like this board couldnt handle grounding the 5.1V output from higher wattage PSU's.
Other Thoughts: If I could give negative stars I would. Lesson learned, never buy Gigabyte again...READ FULL REVIEW

From Google Finance:
BP p.l.c. (NYSE:BP) is an international oil and gas company. The Company operates in more than 80 countries, providing its customers with fuel for transportation, energy for heat and light, retail services and petrochemicals products. The Company operates two segments: Exploration and Production, and Refining and Marketing. Exploration and Production's activities cover three key areas. Upstream activities include oil and natural gas exploration, field development and production. Midstream activities include pipeline, transportation and processing activities related to its upstream activities. Marketing and trading activities include the marketing and trading of natural gas, including liquefied natural gas (LNG), together with power and natural gas liquids (NGLs). Refining and Marketing's activities include the supply and trading, refining, manufacturing, marketing and transportation of crude oil, petroleum and petrochemicals products and related services.
Does BP make for an intelligent investment or intelligent speculation today? Starting with a base estimate of annual Free Cash Flow at a value of approximately $10,000,000,000 and the number of shares outstanding at 3,130,000,000 shares; we used an assumed FCF annual growth of 6 percent for the first 10 years and assume zero growth from years 11 to 15. Review the Free Cash Flow record here.
The resulting estimated intrinsic value per share (discounted back to the present) is approximately $46.76.
Market Price = $42.95
Intrinsic Value = $46.76 (estimated)
Debt/Equity ratio = .31
Price To Value (P/V) ratio = .92 and the estimated bargain = 8. percent.
Before we make a purchase, we must decide ( filter #1 ) if BP is a high quality business with good economics. Does BP have ( filter #2 ) enduring competitive advantages, and does BP have ( filter #3 ) honest and able management.
The current price/earnings ratio = 6.8
Its current return on capital = 12.19
Using a debt to equity ratio of .31, BP shows a 5-year average return on equity = 23.4
Some industries have higher ROE because they require no assets, such as consulting firms. Other industries require large infrastructure builds before they generate a penny of profit, such as oil refiners. Generally, capital-intensive businesses have higher barriers to entry, which limit competition. But, high-ROE firms with small asset bases have lower barriers to entry. Thus, such firms face more business risk because competitors can replicate their success without having to obtain much outside funding.
Growth benefits investors only when the business in point can invest at incremental returns that are enticing; only when each dollar used to finance the growth creates over a dollar of long-term market value. In the case of a low-return business requiring incremental funds, growth hurts the investor. The best companies sustain a competitive advantage, produce free cash flow, and use debt wisely.
Does BP make for an intelligent investment or speculation today? Time is said to be the friend of the wonderful company and the enemy of the mediocre one. Before making an investment decision, seek understanding about the company, its products, and its sustainable competitive advantages over competitors. Next, look for able and trustworthy managers who are focused more on value than just growth. Finally ask: Is there a bargain relative to its intrinsic value per share today?
Great investment opportunities come around when excellent companies are surrounded by unusual circumstances that cause the stock to be misappraised. In terms of Opportunity Cost, is BP the best place to invest our money today?
Time forward projection:
How will BP compete going forward? Keep in mind that a financial report like this is a reflection of the past and present. It may be used to project a future, but it may not account for factors yet unseen. Therefore, pay attention to competitive and market factors that may affect changes in profitability.
In summary, using a debt to equity ratio of .31, BP shows a 5-year average return on equity = 23.4 The estimated intrinsic value per share (discounted back to the present) is approximately $46.76. The Market Price = $42.95 and the Debt/Equity ratio = .31
The Price To Value (P/V) ratio = .92 and the estimated bargain = 8. percent.
Going forward, after this great oil spill of 2010, are there any tranformational catalysts or condition indicators imaginable on the horizon that can adversely affect long-term profitability?

Pensacola still leading 2-0 in the middle of the fourth. Tim Crabbe is dealing. 3IP 2H 0ER 2BB 5K.
Pensacola still leading 2-0 in the middle of the fourth. Tim Crabbe is dealing. 3IP 2H 0ER 2BB 5K.
Pensacola tacks on a run on LaMarre single, stolen base and Gregorius double. They now lead 3-0. Cody Puckett with his second hit of the night. Tim Crabbe has retired eight in a row now. Through five he has struck out seven.
I have been one of the bigger Crabbe fans on this board, but he has clearly struggled this year. He had a great first five innings, with 7 K and only 2 BB, but his biggest vice came back to bite him in the 6th with him walking the first two batters. Crabbe made major strides in Bakersfield last year by cutting his walk rate significantly. Unfortunately, all of those gains have been lost this year and his walk rate is back up to 6.0. Tim has to lower his walk rate if he wants to remain a viable pitching prospect.
Pensacola falling apart in bottom of the 6th. Crabbe walked the first two. Obispo has come on and has given up three singles and now had hit batters back to back. All tied at 3. Obispo has fallen behind the next batter, the other team's relief pitcher, 3-0. Obispo comes back to strike him out. Inning over. Tied ballgame.
Slidin' Billy with his 33rd stolen base of the season following a single. Bakersfield and Inland Empire scoreless heading to the bottom of the third. Chad Rogers got the start for the Blaze tonight. His ERA is down to 2.10. Where did this guy come from?
By 7:35 (or so) in Inland Empire, Slidin' Billy had his single and stolen base. It's now scoreless in the third, with Sharky apparently sharp.
Blaze and the Sixty Sixers are still scoreless headed to the top of the 5th. Chad Rogers' ERA is now down to 1.97 on the season. Where did this guy come from? (Oh, I already said that?)
Really an astonishing base stealer, at least at the minor league level.
Every Reds fan should hope his legs stay healthy and we can see this guy drive the NL crazy running around the bases soon.
Triplin' Billy with a triple (his 5th 3-bagger of the season), Lohman doubles him in, 1-0 Blaze in the top of the sixth.
I have no clue why I am still up since I need to be up in 6 hours, but a walk in the 10th just plated Didi Gregorius for the Blue Wahoos who now lead 4-3.
Lutz with a double to bring in Lohman ... 2-0 Blaze.
Bakersfield is by far my favorite minor league team to follow this year. Funny thing is there's probably more of us religiously following them online than there are fans that actually show up at their home games. They have one of the worst fan bases in the entire minor leagues. But they have a damn good team this year! A lot of top prospects.

"it is a day lost that you haven't danced"
Nia allows me to express the love I have for movement. For ALL kinds of movement. Nia allows everyBODY to come to movement in their own way. I had moved, dance, stretched and played in my body for 40 years when I found Nia. Learning about my body's way through the Nia Technique altered my understanding of my own body, sensation, and energy along with cultivating my abillity to heal my self through movement. WIth my Nia practice and training I have also learned to transmit my accumulated body knowledge in a new and fun way. I have found a home in the Nia practice and a way to connect again not only to myself but to students, deepening my own experience of the Nia practice by sharing the joy. Nia brings me tremendous joy. Most especially I appreciate the joy I am able to bring to others, the opportunity for others to deepen their connection to their own bodies...Nia is a blessing in motion.

This vax carpet washer really does what it says. I didn't realise just how dirty my carpets were until I used this! It gave my carpets a new lease of life! Easy to set up and extremely easy to use, even for me! It has very good floor coverage and the wash function is great. Press the trigger to release the water and wash when pushing forward, and release the trigger to pull backwards to take the water away from the carpet. Really brilliant! Very pleased - go get...
The Grime Master is clever, and a good size. It has brought my bathroom tiles and hall mirror back to their original states. Easy to use, value for money and does what it says on the tin!!
What a fantastic bundle together - a must have for every home.

One can only marvel at the flair and flamboyance of Salesforce.com's (NYSE:CRM) founder and CEO, Marc Benioff as he surfed through the second quarter's results. I don't doubt he would have cast even HPQ's dismal results in a positive light. I did a word count on the words "best great incredible," and they were used no fewer than 21 times in the conference call, including the "and we've got a great concert that night with the Red Hot Chili Peppers."
Now don't get me wrong. 32% Revenue growth is "great." However there was not one single reference to GAAP earnings in the entire hour. In fact the only mention of it was "reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP metrics for both our reported results and our forward guidance can be found in our earnings press release." So if you want the real rundown, go dig for our financials.
I find this absolutely staggering. What's more galling is that not one financial analyst quizzed them on the financial metrics. The questions seemed posed to give Marc greater airtime to wax lyric on how great things are. Not one question on GAAP earnings or the decline in sequential cash flow, from so called financial analysts, who are meant to first and foremost analyze the financials. Bizarre.
What could the analysts have quizzed the company about? Believe me, there are numerous red flags. I list the main ones:
The subject I take most issue with is the version of operating cash flow (up 64% on a YOY basis). This company measures "operating cash flow" after the inclusion of options exercised by staff. In other words, the more wages they pay their staff, the higher their cash flow. Now I know this is a company in the cloud, but how on earth do they think they can misguide investors so blatantly? As I wrote after their last earnings call (here), real cash flow never lies. Well hardly ever. Look at the table below, which highlights the crux of the problem.
Click to enlarge
So they claim operating cash flow grew by 64% YOY. But of $136m, the majority was derived from cash received from staff as they exercised the options. A whole $70.7m came from wages. Being rather Buffettian in this regard (his great quote on the subject: "If stock options aren't a form of compensation, what are they? If compensation isn't an expense, what is it? And, if expenses shouldn't go into the calculation of earnings, where in the world do they go?" Note: for CRM's witch doctor spin on cash flow these wages actually boost the numbers) I exclude it.
As per the table above, the real operating cash flow for the quarter was $65.4m, down sequentially from $215m or by 69%. Yes it was up on a YOY basis (July 2011 not shown above), but this is a significant sleight of hand to flatter the results.
Another problem I have is them trumpeting their "raise in guidance." For Fiscal 2013, they raised their revenue forecast from $3.02bn to $3.03bn. Big hairy deal. 10 million dollars. What they don't mention is that they just acquired Buddy Media for a whopping $300m and this probably accounts for the entire raise.
So how much is CRM worth? Let's say they can continue to grow revenue by 30% per year. (It's unlikely as the revenue run-rate is now $3bn a year and the competition is clearly intensifying.) This won't translate into a 30% growth in earnings or cash per share as they issue shares to staff at a prolific rate of about 3% per annum. Hence this would translate into cash growth per share of 26% per year.
How much would I pay for a company growing at 26% per year? I would pay a maximum of 30X. Note that there are numerous shares on a PE of 10 growing eps at nominal GDP growth of 5%, even in these distressed times.
I estimate a clean operating cash flow of $400m per year. Less capex of 150m per year, (and this excludes acquisitions) giving a clean net operating cash flow of $250m per year. Let's grow this at 30% to give you $325m for the next 12 months.
The table below computes the price derived on a range of cash multiples, and adding back cash on their balance sheet. Even a 50X cash flow multiple delivers a price target of $120, or about 20% below the current valuation.
Conclusion: There is no doubt CRM is an impressive company. However it is grossly overvalued. Not even the abundant gusts of hot air from Marc Benioff can defy financial gravity forever.
Dislcosure: I am short CRM.

These are adorable treats and so easy a child could make them. I didn't have berry jam, so I used lemon marmalade which worked quite well. The cake was spongey and not overly sweet. The cooking time was pretty much correct for my microwave; for cooking them all at once. I forgot to grease the cups (I used coffee mugs), but it didn't matter, they came right out, onto the serving dish. I LOVE this recipe.
Wow. I must say I did not know you could make biscuits in the microwave! I agree with Chef #673444 that they could've used a bit more jam though. One thing I did to try to fix this was to cut the biscuit in half and situate it so that the jam was in the middle. Crazy as it sounds, I think this recipe could probably be modified to make "Yankee" dumplings or biscuits 'n' gravy... but that's just me. One thing I will suggest is that you make sure your microwave is 100% clean and doesn't smell like chicken like mine did, lol. I will probably give this another try, 'cause, if nothing else, I find it immensely fascinating.
I thought these were okay. There didn't seem to be enough jam in relation to bread/biscuit. Also the bread/biscuit turned a bit rubbery, maybe I cooked it too long? It was super quick and easy to make, however. It's a great idea and can be handy when you are desperate for something sweet but don't have much of anything in the house. Thank you for sharing.

Merry Christmas from above!! I got picked for Diary Pick! Whooo hoo!! All is good here in the clouds! I keep an eye over mom, dad, Darcy and Grunt. I hope everyone has a Wonderful and Safe Christmas. Please think of all of the pups out there who don't have homes. Volunteer at your local shelter. Walk dogs or just sit with a senior dog. Everything helps!

Monkey is in Seattle, Washington. Mom sent a box of sweaters and stuff to the Seattle Animal Shelter after a friend posted pics of their dogs with coats on. Mom had one of my really warm sweaters and sent it with one request. Please find a "special" dog to give my sweater to. Monkey was the lucky pup who got my sweater! He looks so much like me!! Just wanted to share his photo and maybe help him find a loving and warm forever home!

I've been holding onto a sweater that I bought you. I have that one and your camo sweater that you loved. Well the other day I saw a posting from Seattle Animal Shelter. It's a beauitful new shelter, but I noticed the dogs were wearing coats and sweaters. I had some new ones that I wasn't using and got an idea. Time to pay it forward. I know you would appreciate doing it so I got in contact with our friend out in Seattle, Teddy's mom. Got the information and sent the box with sweaters and Christmas collars. Well the box arrived and I asked Teddy's mom to find the perfect dog for your sweater. Turner she made me lose it. Seriously I couldn't stop crying! Your sweater went to a pitbull named Monkey. He looks exactly like you! I mean EXACTLY!!! Teddy's mom posted the photo on FB and I was in total shock. She found the perfect match for your sweater. Monkey is young Brindle and White pitbull. He's very skinny and the sweater looks amazing on him. Another person from the shelter said Monkey will be nice and warm now. That made me feel so good. That sweater was so warm so I know Monkey is feeling the love from us...
Unbelievable Phone CallAugust 4th 2013 1:27 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 5 people already have ]
The other day I got a phone call. It was a 717 area code.... hmmmm... don't know who it could be... So I answer it. It was a woman from the State Investigators office. She stated that normally she doesn't make this kind of calls. I understood. Turns out she is the attorney assigned to your case. She noticed the date (over 2 years) and wanted to notify me that she had the case and that it was still active. She wasn't at liberty to discuss the findings to date but wanted to re-assure me that it had not been lost. I was dumbfounded! I thanked her and told her that I had called just 2 weeks prior to confirm the case was still active. I also told her if she needed anything to please contact me. I reminded her that I was and will always be available to be present for a hearing of necessary. She said she was relieved to hear that I would be available to appear for a hearing. I then thanked her and told her she made my day with her call. That I was told by the investigators that it may take years to come to a conclusion and that I was patient and willing to see it through to the end. We ended our call and I began to shake. I had goosebumps during the conversation and then it went to shaking and then the tears started. I couldn't wait to tell your dad about the call. He was shocked and thrilled at the same time! I hope that we will have closure soon.

Two years ago today we got the word. You were filled with cancer and that you were suffering. Me and dad were in total shock. There was no way you deserved to suffer. To be in any kind of pain. I told Dr. Mount that you should be put to sleep. But I told her something I will regret for the rest of my life. That I couldn't be there. I love you so much and you were too young to let go in my mind. I couldn't do it, couldn't see the light leave you. And I live with this regret forever. It kills me to this day - the shame that I have. You were held by the girls at the office when you passed. They loved you and you adored them. My life will never be the same since you. I didn't eat for 3 days, had no feelings, felt that I couldn't breathe. You went everywhere with me, people who were afraid of pitbulls met you and said what a sweet dog. How loving! You were made me a better person. Dad didn't know what to do either. He dove back into work. Me I just sat and cried with emptiness. Darcy was lost, so quiet, she knew. She had lost other friends while in rescue. They died right in front of her. She knew the loss as well. Then it happened. The reflection, the realization that you had been wronged. I got pissed. So angry when I looked back - hind sight is 20/20. I pulled out your folder, Lord knows I keep everything. And I started to see where things went wrong. I was pissed. I was focused, something could've been done so you didn't suffer. It all started with the first surgery. He was wrong! He had wronged others, there were loads of people who had been through the same thing, and I said enough. When the investigators left, shaking their heads in disbelief I felt like I could start to breathe. He would be held accountable, someone listened and agreed, where it all started - was handled wrong. And so your case was opened. We're still pending - almost 2 years later, but pending is a good thing when it comes to the court. I know one day I'll get a call from the prosecutor to report before the judge/committee/whatever. And I will be there, pictures and files in hand. And I hope to look him in the eye and say - you never gave me an option and Turner suffered. I'm so sorry that you did suffer, it wasn't right. We've done so much for other dogs in our lives, yet you suffered. You, my best friend, my road dog, my companion, my tell-all and you listened friend. For that I am so sorry, for not being their for your last breath I'm so sorry. Miss you... :( Love you :( Mom :(_ _ _

Today is our 19th anniversary, your dad and me. I was on the computer looking at my memory sticks for a picture of us to post on FB. I found pictures from when you got home from your first surgery. God they are horrible. I called the prosecutors office to see if I could add the pictures as evidence to your case. They said no problem. Of course I printed them out and wrote the letter. Dad is picking up an evelope tonight and I will send them certified tomorrow. I'm so sorry you suffered because of that man.

Your grandpa came up to go hunting. When he was coming out of the woods yesterday I was outside. I remembered the last time he was here to hunt. You ran up the hill to greet him. I have a picture on your page. You made sure he made it down the hill safely. I got in my truck and tried to look busy, I started to sob because at that moment I missed you so much it hurt! Grandpa misses you to. I took Grunt and Darcy to the kennel because after you left us grandpa doesn't like Grunt. Which makes me sad also. Wish you were here buddy I miss you so much...

Interesting, I called like I do occassionally with the licensing board in Harrisburg to do a follow-up on your case. I talked to a real nice man who asked me loads of verifying questions. Once he was satisfied that I was the person who filed the case he asked how he could help me. I told him that the case has been pending for over a year and I call occassionally to make sure the case is still active. He stated to me, oh yes, your case is VERY active. That in July there were several entries and that the case is still moving forward. I was so glad to hear that news! I told him that I was advised it may take 2 years to get the case to go to a hearing. He said it's possible but there was alot of activity on our case. I thanked him and he stated sorry for your loss... that I didn't expect. He said he had been through a similar situation and that he understood where I was coming from. I told him my dog is dead, I'm mad and have plenty of time and patience to make sure this guy never does what he did again.

Configuring VPN connections with Linux clients
Supporting IPsec via the 2.6 Kernel
Make sure you install the right supporting daemons for your connection. If your system uses any version of the 2.6 kernel, it natively supports IPsec, but if you want to use KVpnc or vpnc, you'll still need to install the racoon daemon, which takes care of the key exchange for IPsec implementations. To install racoon, use your native package manager or look online for instructions on building a racoon connection [4].
To support FreeS/WAN, the older IPsec standard, you'll have to install the ipsec daemon. If you fail to install the appropriate daemon, your VPN implementation will fail because it will be impossible for your system to conduct the necessary key exchanges when establishing the tunnel.
Establishing VPN today has gotten much easier, but the GUI VPN clients still don't do it all for you. Although working with Microsoft, Cisco, and OpenVPN servers requires a bit of troubleshooting acumen, if you keep working at it, you'll find success.

I just want to say God did not make you transgender in Deuteronomy 22:5. it
says "A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a
woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord
your God." and in 1 Corinthians 6:9.it says "Or do you not know that the
unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who
practice homosexuality,".so God did not make you a transgender cause he's
clearly against it, you chose to be a transgender.

As a young human being male or female, we do not know the difference in
gender traits ! So there will be boys trying on heels and girls having
certain male traits but as time goes on its our parents job to make sure
they specify the difference. If the mom had said in a nice way no son heels
are for girls like mommy or one other way maybe her on wouldn't had became
gay but because she didn't specify the difference between the two genders
she allowed it to go on, allowing her son to believe wearing high heels and
earings was okay as a young boy. It would be different if she had stopped
it once but he just kept doing it, that would obviously mean tgat was
something he longed to be. but when you don't let your children know that's
what boys do or that's what girls do , how the he'll are they suppose to
know. there's nothing wrong with being homosexual at all but if you can
prevent your child from being gay by just saying no, then do it.

I am so sorry but I strongly disagree with his statement "God made him that
way" No God made you a boy if he wanted you as a girl he would have saved
you the trouble of taking hormones and made you a girl period. ALL Kids are
curious and when u give in to curiosity you embrace actions that are not
correct. I would never treat any homosexual, transsexual, etc. mean because
as he said we are all humans and God's children regardless but embracing
this is wrong and the only way to get out is seeking God. I feel for those
who are dealing with this and I know I will get persecuted for my opinion.
But that doesn't matter. GOD BLESS

YOUi Labs Shader Effect Test
YOUi Labs Inc.
- March 25, 2013
( 26)
A visual effects test of the floating point accuracy of the GPU of your device. Artifacts are created when computational errors occur. Various procedural shaders show the strengths of different devices. This application was created in the labs for testing different hardware platforms using a uniform test bed to help reduce development time and engineering cycles.
NOTE: This demo will show any weakness in the GPU or driver on the device, so some shaders may crash your device, appear off-center or incorrectly positioned. This is normal operation, at least for some hardware.
Nice effects.. There are many options available to choose the required one. But I have observed that 3rd last effect is not working in my nexus 4 device. nice to see other effects very well.
Does not work Just flips the screen, and nothing.. Device: Xiaomi mi2s (Adreno 320)
Great visual! Shows the absolute impact of different hardware running the same code with very different results!
Great way to test my device's GPU Would love to see more of these shaders in action! Great little App!
Great for showing the limits of my devices!
cool to watch and interact with the effects wish more of the effects where interactive

Teresa Wooden is a studio potter focusing on wheel-thrown stoneware and porcelain. She incorporates images of nature into her functional and decorative pottery for the home and garden.
News! We have moved to Michigan!
My husband and I moved to Michigan in May of this year and are busy renovating our new home and setting up a new studio. We are located just north of Saugatuck, a beautiful small town near the Lake Michigan shoreline, full of art and tourism and wonderful people.
While we are under construction, I will be updating my website, working on new ideas, and re-stocking my inventory. I plan to attend a few select art fairs in 2016, and will update my calendar with information as those choices are made.
Meanwhile, please feel free to contact me if there is something special you are looking for, or if you would just like to keep in touch. And check back here in spring 2016 for a new look, new work, and the latest info on Stone Forest Pottery!
All the best,
