I found myself pissed in the Starbucks drive-thru line the other day thinking to myself, 'I am soooo soooo tired of pumpkin already!' I couldn't believe I was already craving the chocolatey and minty goodness that goes along with the Christmas season. However my thoughts apparently aren't that crazy, because today is October 25th – which means we are literally TWO MONTHS away from Christmas day!
One of my favorite types of holiday parties to plan is a holiday cocktail party. They're fun, festive and the perfect way to get into the holiday spirit, (no pun intended)! I always plan my holiday parties for a few weeks before Christmas so that more people can attend the party, as it always seems like there's an office holiday party, family obligation or prior engagement during the December month…and I know nobody will want to miss this unforgettable holiday party.
So what exactly goes into a great holiday cocktail party? Well first of all, I always try to set the scene with a new holiday party invitation that stands out among the many invitations your guests will receive that month. Think iconic and festive mixed with a total contemporary flare. One of my favorite invitations this year is the Claus Cocktail Invitations by Doc Milo. It's got a modern grey background along with a zebra print bottom border, (my signature pattern). A festive couple dressed as Santa and a sultry elf stand on both sides of the card carrying gifts and a festive holiday cocktail with a candy cane swizzle stick. It's fun, modern, wild and festive…which is perfect for setting the scene for my event.
holiday cocktail – garland – dress – cane – cookies – invites
Once the invitations have been sent out, it's time to deck YOUR halls with everything festive to create an amazing holiday spread that shows off your holiday spirit and creates an unforgettable holiday atmosphere. Decorate your entrance ways with holiday garland and silver beaded strands. Make sure your Christmas tree is fully decorated in all of its splendor. Offer your guests a Christmas cocktail when they enter, like a chocolate martini with a candy cane rimmed glass. Add a peppermint candy cane to the drink for a unique swizzle. Plan plenty of holiday food to offer to your guests, from classic Christmas cookies to formal hors d'oeuvres. Plan a few holiday party games like Sneaky Santa, Oh Christmas Tree or Guess the Christmas Carol. Ask your guests to come in formal chic holiday attire or heck, maybe just throw in the towel and make it an ugly Christmas sweater party.

A blessing is a good and perfect gift from God. When you receive something that is undeserved. A blessing can also be a gift that is received at the right moment in your life. Favor from Heaven. To give someone your blessing is to give them your permission to follow through with their plan. A boyfriend will approach his girlfriends parents for their blessing to get married. If you are very hospitable to someone they may leave your house with their blessing. To be a blessing is when you help someone out in such ways they can't afford to repay you.
I was 200 dollars short on my rent this month and a financial blessing came in the mail unsuspectingly. I received her parents blessing. He was such a blessing; he helped me set up my new computer.

Lighting the universe
Rethinking what the first stars were like
By Ron Cowen, 12:01 PM July 14, 2011
The Big Bang wasn't all it has been cracked up to be. Sure, it created the universe. But after the heat of the primordial fireball faded, the cosmos plunged into darkness. The universe was cold and black — a sea of hydrogen and helium atoms mixed with a mysterious dark form of matter making its presence known only by its gravity. No stars.
It took a series of violent events — starting about 100 million years after the Big Bang—to end the cosmic Dark Ages. First, the evenly spread dark matte...

It is often seen that a parent and a child are under equivalent pressure when the child's exams are round the corner. This should not be the scenario with you. First and foremost, you should learn to relax and allow your child to do so. Following a few dos and don'ts makes sure that your child comes out with flying colors.
Preparation is the most critical job that needs to be completed a little ahead of time. To make it simpler for your child, make a time table and make sure that your child follows it. While preparing the timetable be sure to cover all subjects and maintain an order similar to that of the exams. It should not be continuous and shall have enough variations. Apart, from reading your child should also write down and practice the important topics. Solving the previous years' set of questions is a good technique too.
Allow your child definite breaks at regular intervals, while studying. Provide your child with good food and healthy drinks and don't allow them to skip meals. Never let your child stay awake till late night before the day of the exam. Be a little efficient and it is bound to go well.

The couple reached Mumbai airport at the right time but unfortunately, missed the scheduled flight to Kerala as their luggage were locked in the boot of the Meru cab and they accused the officials of the cab service of not responding to their calls at the time when they were in need.
Amit Vartak, the groom was compelled to book tickets of an another Kerala-bound flight which cost them Rs 11,000. After returning from Kochi, the couple sent a notice to Meru cab service but when they did not receive any response from the cab service, they moved the consumer forum which asked the cab service to pay the money as compensation.
After citing Vartak's petition, the consumer forum said, "In view of these facts we are of the view that the complainant and his wife must have gone through immense mental agony and torture."
"The car company should bear in mind that being in service industry, that too in the 21st century, they cannot exercise such kind of deficiencies," added the consumer forum.

By Jeremy Schwartz
Japan became an investors' darling in 2013 on the heels of Shinzo Abe being elected in December 2012 and enacting a platform of economic change and reform known as Abenomics, which comprised Abe's "three arrows." The yen weakened considerably, and Japanese stocks were the best performers in the developed markets in 2013.
The first arrow of Abenomics was achieved through aggressive monetary expansion, as the Bank of Japan (BOJ) initiated a bold monetary stimulus package-anchored by an all-in, "do whatever it takes" mindset to achieve a 2% inflation goal on a sustained basis. In 2014, the market appears frustrated that the BOJ has not enacted more monetary easing measures, but why should it? At present rates, the BOJ is already expanding its balance sheet by more than any other central bank in the world-doubling the purchases of the U.S. Federal Reserve, with an economy just one-third the size. Japan's inflation readings have been heading higher, and all signs are that the BOJ's policies are generally moving Japan in the right direction.
I believe Japan offers some of the best return prospects in the developed world over the next three to five years. And this is not reliant on more central bank actions. The case for Japan today is as a traditional value play. Japan's earnings are increasing more than stock prices-and I expect to see an increasing amount of capital returned to shareholders in the form of higher dividends and buybacks. As will be discussed below, Japan's dividends reached a new peak, and I expect this trend to continue.
WisdomTree conducts an annual rebalance of its dividend-weighted Indexes once a year. The developed world Indexes screen for data as of May 31 each year, and this process provides a treasure trove of dividend data across time. As we review the results and implications of this year's dividend changes, we start a blog series by discussing the overall trends in Japanese dividends and what sectors drove the major changes.
Figure 1: Japan Dividend Stream Growth
Japan Dividend Stream Reaches New High - The Dividend Stream has reached a new high of ¥7.86 trillion, an increase of 14.6% from the 2008 high. In dollar terms, the Dividend Stream also reached a new high of $77.2 billion, an increase of 4.5% from the 2012 high.
The most recent annual dividend growth was led by larger companies such as Toyota (NYSE:TM) that are typically more export focused and benefited from a weaker yen. Even though the total dollar value of dividend growth was up significantly more than the median or typical stock's dividend growth, growth was still broad based, with increases across eight out of 10 sectors.
Figure 2: Sector Dividend Stream Growth
Consumer Discretionary-Led Sectors - The sector displayed the highest percentage increase and became the largest cash dividend-paying sector at more than ¥1.8 trillion, representing approximately 23% of the total Dividend Stream. The growth was led by large cash increases among exporters such as Toyota Motor Corp., Panasonic (OTCPK:PCRFY) and Bridgestone (OTCPK:BRDCY). Toyota and Bridgestone also had significantly higher percentage growth than the Consumer Discretionary sector, while Panasonic recently reinstated its dividend after canceling it in 2012.
Utilities and Energy Lagged - Although both sectors saw double-digit declines in percentage growth, neither was significant in terms of the total stream because they represent the two lowest-paying sectors, each less than ¥100 billion.
Since Shinzo Abe was elected, Japan has been the best-performing regional market. But I take comfort in the fact that the overall valuations of Japanese stocks, even after impressive price gains, have actually become cheaper on a price-to-earnings basis because earnings increased even more; note that this stands in stark contrast to the situation of European or United States indexes, where smaller gains were all driven by market price-to-earnings ratios rising.
Two key initiatives from Abenomics' third-arrow reforms revolve around corporate governance and investor stewardship. Both reform initiatives are designed to encourage companies to become better allocators of capital and encourage them to use their stockpiles of cash, leading to more distributions to shareholders. We see this trend of higher dividend payouts as sustainable for some time, especially as profits continue to increase.
Important Risks Related to this Article
Foreign investing involves special risks, such as risk of loss from currency fluctuation or political or economic uncertainty.
Investments focused in Japan are increasing the impact of events and developments associated with the region, which can adversely affect performance.
Dividends are not guaranteed and a company's future abilities to pay dividends may be limited. A company currently paying dividends may cease paying dividends at any time.

Norwegian Wood has been translated into English twice.[1] The first was by Alfred Birnbaum (who translated many of Murakami's earlier novels) and was published in 1989 in Japan by Kodansha as part of the Kodansha English Library series.[10] Like other books in this pocket-sized series, the English text was intended for Japanese students of English, and even featured an appendix listing the Japanese text for key English phrases encountered in the novel. Notably, this edition kept the two-volume division of the original Japanese version and its color scheme — the first volume having a red cover, the second green (the first UK edition in 2000 would also keep this division and appearance). This earlier translation has been discontinued in Japan.
The second translation, by Jay Rubin, is the authorized version for publication outside Japan and was first published in 2000 by Harvill Press in the UK, and Vintage International in the United States.[1]
The two translations differ somewhat. Of note, there are some differences in nicknames: Watanabe's roommate, for example, is called "Kamikaze" in the Birnbaum translation, and "Storm Trooper" in the Rubin translation.
There were no English trade hardcover editions of the novel published until October 2010, when an exclusive limited edition for Waterstone's was released by Vintage Classics (ISBN 9780099528982).[11]

/// How Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones Would Have Looked Circa 1995
With chillingly accurate typography and scrolling VCR recording lines, fans on YouTube have been reimagining their favorite current shows as cheesy '90s sitcoms. User Goestoeleven started the trend with a masterful 1995 take on Breaking Bad as a family comedy and The Walking Dead as a cop show. (Breaking Bad was also recently reimagined as a Mentos commercial.) Then, Hunterlsanders uploaded Game of Thrones Circa 1995, managing to find every smile in the entire series and set them all to Queen's epic ballad "I Want It All." It's amazing how far show credits—and well, the shows themselves—have come in a decade. Though TV watching itself has declined, the content keeps getting better. We may yearn for the viewership numbers of 1995, but none of us wants to go back to a time when Highlander was one of the best shows on TV.

The impact of nurse practitioners on care delivery in the emergency department: a multiple perspectives qualitative study
Organization, structure and delivery of healthcare
Despite well-articulated benefits, the introduction of Nurse Practitioners (NPs) in Australia has been slow. Poorly defined nomenclature relating to advanced practice roles in nursing and variations in such roles both across Australia and worldwide have resulted in confusion and uncertainty regarding the functions and roles of NPs. Qualitative studies focussing on the perceived impact on the care settings into which NPs are introduced are scarce, but are valuable in providing a complete contextual account of NPs in care delivery settings. This study aimed to investigate the perceived impact of the NP on the delivery of care in the ED by senior doctors, nurses, and NPs. Results will facilitate adoption and best use of this human resource innovation.
A cross-sectional qualitative study was undertaken in the Emergency Departments (EDs) of two large Australian metropolitan public teaching hospitals. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with five nurse practitioners, four senior doctors (staff specialists and ED directors) and five senior nurses. Transcribed interviews were analysed using a grounded theory approach to develop themes in relation to the conceptualisation of the impact of the NP role on the ED. Member checking of results was conducted by revisiting the sites to clarify findings with participants and further explore emergent themes.
The impact of the NP role was perceived differently by different groups of participants. Whilst NPs were observed to deliver few quantitative improvements to ED functioning from the perspective of ED directors, NPs believed that they assisted doctors in managing the increasing subacute presentations to the contemporary ED. NPs also believed they embraced a preventative paradigm of care which addressed the long term priorities of chronic disease prevention and cost containment in the broader healthcare environment. The ambiguous position of the NP role, which crosses the gap between nursing and medicine, emerged and resulted in a duality of NP governance.
Interpretation of the NPs' role occurred through different frames of reference. This has implications for the development of the NP role in the ED. Collaboration and dialogue between various stakeholders, such as ED doctors and senior nursing management is required.
Originating in the 1960s in the United States, Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are advanced practice nurses who have completed additional training beyond that of a registered nurse
Qualitative studies focussing on clinician perceptions and understandings of the NP role, as well as the perceived impact on the care settings into which they are introduced, are scarce. These types of studies are necessary because they add information beyond identifying and quantifying the prevalence of a particular view. One qualitative study which entailed interviews with nine key stakeholders undertaken by Tye
There are grounds for believing that different professional perspectives are indicators of distinguishable frames of reference. A frame of reference is "a built-up repertoire of tacit knowledge that is used to impose structure upon and impart meaning to otherwise ambiguous social and situational information to facilitate understanding"
Research question
What do senior doctors, nurses, and NPs perceive to be the impact of NPs on the delivery of care in the ED?
Design and setting
A qualitative study using in-depth semi-structured interviews of NPs, senior doctors and senior nurses from Emergency Departments in two large Australian metropolitan public teaching hospitals was undertaken (Table
Participant selection and sampling
Fourteen semi-structured interviews (Table
Interviews undertaken were semi-structured with no pre-coded response categories. The interview questions were designed to introduce a broad theme for exploration and discussion with the participant. Questions were phrased differently to take account of the different clinical roles of those being interviewed
A document outlining the study, its voluntary nature, confidentiality of results and participants, and a consent form were witnessed and signed by participants. An opportunity to raise queries related to the study was also presented at this time. Participants were recruited via email and approached personally in the department when email contact failed. Interviews with senior doctors and nurses regarding their understanding of the NP role were triangulated with data from NPs.
Data analysis
A grounded theory approach using thematic content analysis was employed to derive themes. Grounded theory refers to the process of inductively developing theory from systematically gathered and analysed data
Impact on ED functioning
NPs, senior doctors and senior nurses perceived a range of changes to the overall functioning of the ED following the introduction of NPs (Table
ED directors at both sites expressed a significantly different view to that of NPs. ED directors perceived that the number of NPs employed in the ED was statistically insufficient to effect any real improvement to patient flow. Further, whilst their contribution to primary care was acknowledged, one Director questioned the cost-effectiveness of NPs in the time-sensitive ED environment where he perceived NPs could not match the patient throughput achieved by a junior doctor despite the greater cost of such positions. ED directors also observed on occasions the non-clinical aspect of the NP role preventing NPs from taking a "frontline" approach to care. Specifically, directors reported that NPs may spend considerable time in an office when the ED floor is especially busy. Directors identified this as a governance issue as they were not administratively responsible for the NPs and were excluded from negotiating the mix of NP responsibilities which were under the governance of the Director of Nursing. However, it was conceded that whilst junior doctors were largely transient, NPs contributed to increasing the pool of permanent staff in the ED. Further, Directors at both sites questioned the future of NPs in metropolitan EDs in the advent of an anticipated influx of medical graduates in Australia.
Impact on other clinical roles
Senior doctors and nurses agreed that the NP role had changed the task mix of doctors in relieving their subacute workload (Table
Impact on care delivery
Senior doctors, nurses and NPs agreed that NPs embraced a more holistic model of patient care (Table
NPs felt that they were part of a prominent shift in clinical decision-making from the clinician to the patient and an increased emphasis on preventative health and health promotion, advocating patient education and self care. Additionally, NPs reported that they were more facilitative of patient involvement in care-based decision-making and a team-based approach to care that is traditionally dominated by the perspective of a single doctor. NPs expressed frustration at what they felt was a consistent judgement of their practice against doctor-provided, or "gold standard" of care. They argued that the NP model of care rather complemented doctors' practices to address changes in consumer demands and the nature of care delivered in the contemporary metropolitan ED. One ED Director stressed the importance of adherence to established scopes of practice to recognise that the NP was an independent practitioner who was nevertheless part of a multidisciplinary team.
Our study found that senior doctors and nurses, and NPs expressed differing views on the impact of NPs on care delivery. NUMs were positive about NPs' effects on ED functioning, believing that they improved patient throughput and contributed to alleviation of patient waiting times. NPs felt that they were ideal candidates for addressing the shifting nature of the ED from a purely acute care setting to an increasingly subacute treatment source. In contrast, ED directors questioned the ability of a very small number of NPs to deliver efficiencies which resulted in tangible improvements. Further, ED directors reported observing NPs prioritising office-based, non-clinical tasks over frontline care delivery during busy shifts.
A shift in the subacute workload from doctors to NPs was observed by NPs, senior doctors and nurses. Nurses and NPs reported a positive NP influence on their nursing peers in the form of empowerment, education and role modelling for advanced practice career pathways. All respondents agreed that NPs adhered to a more holistic care paradigm whilst NPs challenged the validity of doctor-provided care as the established "gold standard" of medicine over the merits of consumer empowerment and a preventative care paradigm.
Studies have quantified clinician perceptions and understandings of the NP role when evaluating NP implementation and service delivery through structured surveys
Conflicting care paradigms
Adopting a macro view in their assessment, physician ED directors questioned the measurable impact of NPs as they are such a small portion of a large total ED workforce. Another concern they had was the cost-effectiveness and validity of the relatively more time-consuming preventative model of care adopted by NPs in a highly time-sensitive care setting where focus was on expedient patient movement through the department. However, drawing from a front-line perspective, senior nurses perceived NPs as pivotal in maintaining consistent patient flow through the department and relieving extensive wait times for the increasing numbers of low-acuity ED presentations. A number of studies have shown that NPs and doctors have similar levels of health outcomes and resource use
NPs perceived the contribution of NP practice lay in its accommodation of both the changing nature of consumer demand on the contemporary ED, as well as a general shift in care paradigm within the broader healthcare environment. In addition to the traditional role of providing urgent and life-saving treatment, the emergency care system now provides primary care services to an increasing number of patients who cannot access alternative services
Conflict of governance
ED directors from both sites observed that, at times during periods of peak patient flow, NPs were removed from front-line clinical work by the non-clinical aspect of their role. Whilst NPs practised autonomous management of presentations within specific scopes of practice and were clinically responsible to the ED director, the Director of Nursing retained administrative governance over the NP position and determined task mix. Duality of NP governance appears reflective of the ambiguous position of the NP's role between nursing and medicine. These ambiguities are best addressed through dialogue and collaboration between relevant medical and nursing representatives, as conflicting demands and priorities from multiple sources of management can create problems
Discrepancies in the role and function of NPs across sites and States limit generalisability of results beyond the study sites. The small sample of NPs is also reflective of the still limited availability of NPs. As our intention was to undertake in-depth interviews, the total number of interviews was modest. A larger sample of staff working with NPs in a future study would be important in validating our findings.
The impact of the NP role in the ED was perceived differently by different groups of participants. The results demonstrate a misalignment of frames with implications for further development of the NP role. Reconciliation of perceptions of the role of the NP is essential to ensure that they achieve their desired goal of improving patient outcomes and efficiencies within the ED.

Dear Spiceworks Authority,
When I remove a PC from our network the PC still shows up in the inventory list.
Is this someting I have to manually remove?

Hi Vince,
Yes I think you have to Manually Remove the Device from the Inventory, if you want it removing.
There is alot of debate about getting the old machines flagged for Removed, so that they are still viewable for comparison details

Martin came off the bench to score a career high 31 points as the DePaul Blue Demons defeated the Syracuse Orange 74-71 Saturday night at McGrath Arena.
Her 31 points are also a DePaul University record for most points in a game by a freshman.
In a contest that had NCAA tournament implications for both teams, DePaul's Keisha Hampton helped the Blue Demons strike early, scoring 12 of her team's first 18 points DePaul jumped out to an 18-11 lead.
The Orange then countered by tightening up its 2-3 zone defense, and a lay up by Syracuse's all-time leading scorer and rebounder, Nicole Michael, gave the Orange a 24-23 lead with 5:58 left.
A lay up by Vionca Murray with :02 left boosted that lead to 35-26.
But sometimes, endings are just beginnings.
Sam Quigley scored her only basket of the night, a bomb from just inside the half court line at the buzzer, to give DePaul a huge momentum lift, and the Blue Demons trailed 35-29 at the break.
"At halftime I was coming in and saw that we were down six and it came over me that we were not losing this game," Martin said. "I will do whatever I have to do, but we are not losing this game."
And do she did.
Her three-pointer from the top of the key in the opening minutes of the second half cut the lead to 37-32. One minute later a three-pointer from the left corner tied the game at 37. Her three-point play moved DePaul ahead 44-39 with 14:09 left to play. Another three, this time from the right corner pushed the lead to 47-39.
But the Orange (19-9, 6-9 Big East) withstood that onslaught, creeping to 56-54 on a three-point play Juanita Ward with 7:43 left. A jumper by Michael one minute later gave Syracuse a 58-56 lead.
Martin, however, was not done.
Her drive and three-point play followed by her steal and assist on Hampton's fast break lay up moved DePaul in front 65-58. Her lay up gave the Blue Demons a 67-58 lead with 2:54 left.
A tip in by Michael with :16 left cut DePaul's lead to 70-68.
Martin's 4-4 effort from the free throw line in the final 16 seconds was enough to counter a three-pointer at the buzzer by the Orange's Tasha Harris.
"Everybody has to step up." DePaul coach Doug Bruno said. "The other night we had Keisha Hampton score 22 points in a half and she had a great night early tonight, but [Anna Martin] had a night for the ages here at DePaul. [Martin] did a great job between the touches. What really separates freshmen from experienced Big East players is understanding how important play between the touches are and not just when the ball is in your hands."
Syracuse leads the Big East in offensive rebounding and total rebounding. The Orange were bested by DePaul tonight in both those categories.
Martin was 5-8 from beyond the arc and finished 8-8 from the stripe. She also led DePaul in rebounding with nine boards. Hampton finished with 19 points and eight rebounds.
The Orange were led with 20 points each from Michael and Ward.
DePaul (19-10, 8-7 Big East) started the evening tied for sixth place in the Big East with Providence and Rutgers. Both those teams hold the tiebreaker over DePaul.
The Blue Demons finish out the Big East regular season at South Florida this Monday at 6 p.m. CST.
Notes: Quigley's seven assists tonight gives her 331 career assists, moving her past Andrea Morgan into 7th place on the DePaul career list...Quigley's 11 assists against Pittsburgh is tops in the Big East this year...Felicia Chester's two blocks leave her one short of moving into 10th place in the DePaul single season blocked shots record held by Cathy Pezdirtz and her 40 blocks in 1992-1993.

text: Lecture 2 Model Classification and Steps in a Simulation Study Definition of Simulation Simulation is the imitation of an operation of a realworld process or system over time. Simulation is a method of understanding, representing and solving complex interdependent system. Simulation is the process of designing a model of a real system and conducting experiments with this model for the purpose either of understanding the behavior of the system or of evaluating various strategies (with the limits imposed by a criterion or a set of criteria) for the operation of the system. 2 Definition of Simulation (cont') Simulation in general is to pretend that one deals with a real thing while really working with an imitation. A flight simulator on a PC is computer model of some aspects of the flight: it shows on the screen the controls and what the "pilot" (the youngster who operates it) is supposed to see from the "cockpit" (his armchair). 3 When to use Model To fly a simulator is safer and cheaper than the real airplane. For precisely this reason, models are used in industry, commerce and military: it is very costly, dangerous and often impossible to make experiments with real systems. Provided that models are adequate descriptions of reality (they are valid), experimenting with them can save money, suffering and even time. 4 When to use Simulations Systems which change with time such as a gas station where cars come and go (called dynamic systems) and involve randomness (nobody can guess at exactly which time and next cars should arrive at the station) are good candidates for simulation. Modeling complex dynamic systems theoretically need too many simplifications and the emerging models may not be therefore valid. Simulation does not require that many simplifying assumptions, making it the only tool even in absence of randomness. 5 How to simulate? Suppose we are interested in a gas station. We may describe the behaviour of this system graphically by plotting the number of cars in the station; the state of the system. Every time a car arrives the graph increases by one unit while a departing car causes the graph to drop one unit. This graph (called sample path), could be obtained from observation of a real station, but could also be artificially constructed. Such artificial construction and the analysis of the resulting sample path consists of the simulation. 6 Types of Models Models can be classified as being mathematical or physical. A mathematical model uses symbolic notation and mathematical equations to represent a system. A simulation model is particular type of mathematical model of a system. 7 Type of Simulation Simulation models may be further classified as being: Static model or Dynamic model Deterministic model or Stochastic model Discrete model or Continuous model 8 Static vs Dynamic Static models and dynamic models are classification by the dependency on time A static simulation model, sometimes called a Monte Carlo simulation, represents a system at a particular point in time. For example, Mark Six, inventory level Dynamic simulation models represent systems in which state of the variables change over time. The simulation of a bank from 9:00am to 4:00pm is an example of a dynamic simulation. For example, service time, waiting time. 9 Deterministic vs Stochastic Classification by the nature of the variables Simulation models that contain no random variables are classified as deterministic. For example, deterministic arrivals would occur at a dentist's office if all arrived at the scheduled appointment time. A stochastic simulation model has one or more random variables as input. Random inputs lead to random outputs. For example, random arrival, random product demand, random incoming calls. 10 Deterministic vs Stochastic (cont') Since the outputs are random, they can be considered only as estimates of the true characteristics of a model. For example, the simulation of a bank would usually involve random interarrival times and random service times. 11 Discrete vs Continuous Discrete and continuous models are defined in an analogous manner, classification by system nature. A discrete model is one in which the state variable(s) change only at a discrete set of points in time. The bank is an example of a discrete system, since the state variable, the number of customers in the bank, changes only when a customer arrives or when the service provided a customer is complete. Other examples, busy/idle counter, occupied/free machine. 12 Discrete vs Continuous (cont') A continuous model is one in which the state variable(s) change continuously over time. An example is the head of water behind a dam. During and for some time after a rain storm, water flows into the lake behind the dam. Water is drawn from the dam for flood control and to make electricity. Evaporation also decreases the water level. But, continuous system can be approximated by a discrete-event system, depending on the expected preciseness and the objective of the study. 13 Applications - Service Applications Staffing A bank manager might determine that three tellers on duty results in a tolerable wait for service during most of the day, but that her customers' "time in queue" is too long during the busy lunch hour and in the late afternoon. She could then assess the impacts of adding additional part-time help during the peak hours. 14 Applications - Service Applications (cont') Procedure Improvement Many organizations have learned that internal consumers are customers. In an effort to improve the responsiveness of their administrative and support functions many of these companies are using simulation to model revised procedures designed to streamline processing of paperwork, telephone calls and other daily transactions. 15 Advantages of Simulation New policies, operating procedures, decision rules, information flows, organizational procedures, and so on can be explored without disrupting ongoing operations of the real system. New hardware designs, physical layouts, transportation systems, and so on, can be tested without committing resources for their acquisition. Hypotheses about how or why certain phenomena occur can be tested for feasibility. Time can be compressed or expanded allowing for a speedup or slowdown of the phenomena under investigation. 16 Advantages of Simulation (cont') Insight can be obtained about the interaction of variables. Insight can be obtained about the importance of variables to the performance of the system. Bottleneck analysis can be performed indicating where work-in-process, information, materials, and so on are being excessively delayed. A simulation study can help in understanding how the system operates rather than how individuals think the system operates. "What-if" questions can be answered. 17 Disadvantages of Simulation Model building requires special training. Simulation results may be difficult to interpret. Simulation modeling and analysis can be time consuming and expensive. Skimping on resources for modeling and analysis may result in a simulation model or analysis that is not sufficient for the task. Simulation is used in some cases when an analytical solution is possible, or even preferable. This might be particularly true in the simulation of some waiting lines where closed-form queueing models are available. 18 Defense of Simulation Vendors of simulation software have been actively developing packages that contain all or part of models that need only input data for their operation. Many simulation software vendors have developed output analysis capabilities within their packages for performing very thorough analysis. Simulation can be performed faster today than yesterday, and even faster tomorrow. This is attributable to the advances in hardware that permit rapid running of scenarios. 19 Defense of Simulation (cont') Closed-form models are not able to analyze most of the complex systems that are encountered in practice. 20 Steps in a Simulation Study Problem formulation Experimental design Setting of objectives and overall project plan Production runs and analysis Model Conceptualization Data Collection More runs? Model translation No Documentation and reporting Verified? Yes No Validated? Yes No Implementation 21 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Problem formulation If the statement is provided by the policy makers, or those that have the problem, the analyst must ensure that the problem being described is clearly understood. If a problem statement is being developed by the analyst, it is important that the policy makers understand and agree with the formulation. Setting of objectives and overall project plan The objectives indicate the questions to be answered by simulation. The overall project plan should include a statement of the alternative systems to be considered, and a method for evaluating the effectiveness of these alternatives. 22 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Model conceptualization Data collection This is another important and difficult subject. The basic steps are to consider all the related factors first, then evaluate each one (keep or ignore) and reach the final model. The more data you have the more complete information you have the more precise model you can build the better solution you would get. Model translation Program the model into a computer language. Simulation languages are powerful and flexible. In most cases, some computer software packages are involved. The model development time is greatly reduce. Furthermore, software packages have added features that enhance their flexibility. 23 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Verified? Verification pertains to the computer program prepared for the simulation model. Is the computer program performing properly? If the input parameters and logical structure or the model are correctly represented in the computer, verification has been complete. Validated? Validation is the determination that a model is an accurate representation of the real system. Validation is usually achieved through the calibration of the model, an iterative process of comparing the model to actual system behaviour and using the discrepancies between the two, and the insights gained, to improve the model. 24 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Experimental design Production runs and analysis The alternatives that are to be simulated must be determined. For each system design that is simulated, decisions need to be made concerning the length of the initialization period, the length of simulation runs, and the number of replications to be made of each run. Production runs, and their subsequent analysis, are used to estimate measures of performance for the system designs that are being simulated. More runs? The analyst determines of additional runs are needed and what design those additional experiments should follow. 25 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Documentation and reporting Program documentation: If the program is going to be used again by the same or different analysts, it may be necessary to understand how the program operates. The model users can change parameters at will in an effort to determine the relationships between input parameters and output measures of performance, or to determine the input parameters that "optimize" some output measure of performance. Progress report: It provides the important written history of a simulation project. 26 Steps in a Simulation Study (cont') Implementation The success of the implementation phase depends on how well the previous eleven steps have been performed. 27

Delhi, Aug 17: Yesterday it was Iqbal Mirchi, Dawood's yes-man who died of an heart attack in London and today it is his Lashkar aide Abdul Karim Tunda. No, the latter did not die of a heart attack, but was arrested by a Special Cell of Delhi Police from the Indo-Nepal border Friday night. Following this, he was produced at a Delhi court.
Accused for 40 bomb blasts in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Delhi in the 1990s, Tunda was the 15th most-wanted terrorist among the 20 odd named in the dossier handed over to Pakistan after the 26/11 attacks.
Born and brought up in western Uttar Pradesh, he was picked up by the ISI and indoctrinated into terrorist activities in the 1980s. His forte involves improvising explosive devices. The dossier claims, he is also connected to two other terrorist groups-Jaish-e-Mohammad and Markaz al-Dawa, also known as Jamat-ud-Dawa.
Of what it seems, Dawood's aides are gradually leaving his side-either due to illness or because of police. So do we call it a gradual end of the Dawood era?

Canada takes U.S. Steel to court over Stelco cuts
By Randall Palmer
OTTAWA (Reuters) - The Canadian government took U.S. Steel Corp to court on Friday over production cutbacks at its Stelco subsidiary, Industry Minister Tony Clement announced.
Clement had sent U.S. Steel a "demand letter" on May 5 asking the company to comply with commitments it made when it took over Hamilton, Ontario-based Stelco. He said on Friday he was persuaded that U.S. Steel was still not complying with those undertakings.
An application has been filed with the Federal Court of Canada asking the company to "order appropriate measures to remedy this situation," Clement said in a statement.
He told Reuters afterwards: "I am requesting that the court mandate that U.S. Steel meet its obligations and that it be fined for every day that it does not." He said the fine could be up to C$10,000 ($8,900) a day.
In March, U.S. Steel temporarily shut down most of its operations at two big former Stelco plants in Hamilton and Nanticoke, Ontario, affecting some 1,500 jobs. It blamed adverse market conditions. A spokeswoman said on Friday that as a matter of policy the company would not comment on whether any of the facilities had been restarted.
Clement said in the statement he expected U.S. Steel to stick to the undertakings it had given at the time of its Stelco takeover on capital expenditures, research and development and production.
"I have carefully reviewed U.S. Steel's response to my letter. I remain of the view that U.S. Steel is not complying with its undertakings, and I am not satisfied by its explanations for noncompliance," he said.
U.S. Steel complained on Friday, however, that Clement had declined to meet the company to discuss the issue. Continued...

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2004
About the owner: George O'Connell and family are the owners of this vacation home on Oak Island, NC.
Why the Owner Chose Oak Island, NC, USA:
Oak Island is a very low key - peaceful - relaxing location. We love the quiet serinity of our home's location on the tidal waterways on a North Carolina's barrier island. 200 yards to the beach is the perfect distance, and 2 miles to the local marina is also perfect access to the intercoastal waterway, and a lot of good restraunts and bars. The new 'second' bridge to Oak Island opened in November 2010, which provides easy access to over 50 great golf courses in the north myrtle beach area.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Our home is simple and comfortable, we always have a great view for miles accross the tidal waterways. Our location on a dead end street, two blocks from Ocean drive is ideal. We can hear the ocean waves, but are not distrubed by the often noisy volume of traffic on ocean drive.

Is this guy serious??
He seems to have foot in mouth syndrome.
Chad Johnson's comments in his 1st interview with Peter Bailey was controversial & this one was no different.
This time reality star Evelyn Lozada's ex husband explained that monogamy is unnatural to justify infidelity.
The ex-NFL star tried to prove his point using Dr. Martin Luther King as an example saying behind closed doors, Dr. King was "ho'ing".
I know right!! Who says that???
