Cognos (COGN) released a curious preannouncement last week, ending days of speculation about whether the Business Intelligence leader was going to fall short of Street estimates:
Revenues of $228 million (at the high end of guidance) License revenues of $77mm - $78mm (down year over year and below expectations) EPS to "exceed the company's July 21st outlook" The company is laying off 6% of its workforce, primarily in the middle management layers; but will be hiring 25-30 more bag carriers Final and detailed financial results are scheduled for release on September 21st
Basically it was a mixed bag, but the license revenue line was disappointing. On the conference call, several sell-side analysts took issue with the company's bullishness in the face of disappointing license traction nine months into the company's release of Cognos 8.
Typically, particularly given current market conditions, that would have been enough to pound the stock. But the stock finished down just $0.10 on the day. When one considers that Cognos' stock is up considerably from its July lows, the lack of price degradation was all the more curious.
Or perhaps it's not curious at all. Speculation has been rampant for some time that Cognos is a potential acquisition candidate. Is today's lack of price action in the face of negative news an indication that speculative investors are buying into the M&A chatter? Or was this more a reaction to the fact that Cognos' layoffs could potentially drive operating margins back up to respectable levels?
I've been critical of the state of the BI market for some time. These companies have grown in no small part through acquisition and are now facing far less differentiation between them. Several months ago I wondered if the Hunters would become the Hunted. It will be interesting to see if those speculating on Cognos' prospects as an M&A candidate are rewarded for their willingness to look past another disappointing fundamental result.

Beautiful, peaceful and relaxing Riad in the Kasbah district of the medina - we had a wonderful visit, were well looked after by Joelle (the owner) and her lovely staff and I would highly recommend staying here.
I booked this riad based largely on the reviews I had read on Trip Advisor and was not disappointed. I've included some info below that I would have found helpful when researching my stay:
- The riad is situated approx. 15 mins walk from Jemaa El F'naa (the main square) and is a fairly direct walk/easy to find once you have found your way once. Getting a taxi is also easy and cheap (approx £2) if the beat is too much!
- located in the kasbah area of the old town (medina) which is a bit quieter and a refreshing change from the hustle and bustle of the main square.
- clean, recently refurbished
- beautiful interior courtyard with orange trees and a plunge pool
- sun terrace with sun loungers, hats and towels
- comfortable area in the shade with pillows
- breakfast served on the sun terrace every morning - Joelle and her team will accommodate an early breakfast if you have a day trip planned
- we stayed in the Noa room on the 1st floor which was a double room with an ensuite bathroom (note there was no door to the bathroom in our room which we found complimented the open nature of the riad) - minimal and classic decor with African prints
- all rooms Air Conditioned
- wifi available
- we dined at the riad several times. Breakfast was a generous and fresh selection of traditional Moroccan pastries, breads plus tea/coffee/fresh orange juice and yoghurt. We also had a traditional tagine when we arrived - delicious.
- the riad is beautiful and Marrakesh fantastic but it was Joelle and her lovely team that really made our trip special. When I initially booked I contacted Joelle to confirm and received an immediate and warm reply. Even before arriving, Joelle helped organise airport transfers & meals. When we arrived, Joelle spent an hour with us taking us through a map of the city recommending places to visit and giving us advice. Nothing was too much trouble for her and her staff are attentive and friendly. Marrakesh is manic (and wonderful) so having some friendly advice to navigate the city really helped!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Moroccan hospitality is legendary and at Riad les orangers d'alilia you have the opportunity to experience this fine tradition. Riad les orangers d'alilia is a home with lots of atmosphere and a dedicated staff at your disposal.Riad les orangers d'alilia has been entirely restored in accordance with traditional Moroccan materials and architecture. ... more less

I actually saw a link to this over on Discourse, but 64-bit is finally going to be the default choice when downloading the 13.10 iso. See the mailing list post here.
I say it's about time, in defense of 32-bit systems, I have an ancient Apple G3, that won't run Ubuntu anyway, but it does run Debian stable 32-bit without a gui very well. I installed the system about 3 years ago, and it just plain runs without any problems, it's so reliable, I rarely even remember to do updates.

Mālama I Ka 'Āina, Sustainability: learning from Hawai'i's displaced place and culture-based science standard
This response to Mitchell and Mueller's "A philosophical analysis of David Orr's theory of ecological literacy" comments on their critique of Orr's use of the phrase "ecological crisis" and what I perceive as their conflicting views of "crisis." I present my views on ecological crisis informed by standpoint theory and the definition of crisis as turning point. I connect the concept of turning point to tipping point as used in ecology to describe potentially irreversible changes in coupled social-ecological systems. I suggest that sustainable societies may provide models of adaptive learning in which monitoring of ecological phenomena is coupled to human behavior to mitigate threats to sustainability before a crisis/tipping point is reached. Finally, I discuss the Hawai'i State Department of Education's removal of its Indigenous science content standard Mālama I Ka 'Āina, Sustainability and its continued use in community-based projects.

The Richer Poorer x Freenote bond transcends friendship and an affinity for good whiskey. Brothers and Freenote Founders, Matt & Andrew Brodrick, fostered a relationship with Richer Poorer co-founder, Tim Morse over surf breaks at lunch, after work beers and long conversations about their shared entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to creating quality product with an attention to detail.
Both brands are headquartered a few miles apart in the historied town of San Juan Capistrano. The heritage and influence that surrounds this sleepy Southern California gem, has inspired the deeply rooted cultures of Richer Poorer and Freenote, a commitment to hard work and the honest hustle.
The Richer Poorer X Freenote limited wool boot sock is knit with the highest quality yarns and care, in a family-owned factory in the great state of North Carolina. The limited run two-pack is available in navy and cream with denim inspired contrasts. The packaging is produced from 11 oz double weave selvedge denim scraps left over from Freenote's latest production run and no two are exactly alike.
Sold exclusively during this Holiday 2015 season at select retailers and online at Richer-Poorer.com.

Well, is it! Do you vertebrae up your files on a routine basis? Do you have a subsidise up conspire in place? What's fundamental to your company and what isn't? What happens if you get hurt, who will run your business? Do you have trade travel to your business? What if they get hurt, are you covered? What give or take a few all the machines you have, is it covered?
These are all questions a hole based commercial owner, (in fact, any concern man of affairs) should have answers to and devices in set down for.
You must have a net in set down to stern up your files. Since utmost of us use computers today, be in no doubt you hindmost up at smallest possible quondam a period. If you really impoverishment to be efficient and formulate it assured on yourself, get a Maxtor serious driving force beside the one fastening hindmost up fact. For smaller quantity than $200, you can not afford to be in need one if you have a lot of files. If you don't have that umpteen files next a Zip thrust will suffice. We have an I-Omega that debt us one and only $70.
Ok, you say what should I spinal column up? Anything that is important to you. Your patron database, templates you use on a agreeable reason. If you are look-alike us and vend e-manuals, and books, you want to have them high-backed up. We have all of our products stiff-backed up on disk, CD, and a mirror model of our firm drive. We stern up quondam a week. We use the Maxtor thrust near one fastening backbone up. However, if I am method on a project, I wager on it up all case I label a metamorphose. In fact, whenever I am valid during the day I use a in a job saucer that I release to in add-on to redeeming on my tight round shape. When I recoup a papers I am in work on, I consequently go to set free as and prevention it on my disk drive. This avoids not having an up to twenty-four hours written document if my information processing system crashes. So your accumulation would dwell of files you use a lot, patron database, your products, and anything else that is peremptory to abidance your enterprise up and moving.
Now what do you do beside these stern ups. Well, if you are elegant you have a Safe that is fireproof, and you put your disk and trying disc fund ups in the Safe. When you do your weekly vertebrae ups you actuation them out and newly write them. If you haven't made any changes on your merchandise disks next you don't have to do them. You deprivation to be assured your Safe is flame-resistant for at least 2 work time. We have a Sentry Safe. While not an easy on the pocket commercial expense, it is a drastically central one. Depending on how markedly you want to put in a Safe price will ebb and flow. In accessory to having spinal column ups in your Safe, you should too have a set of final ups that are situated off piece of ground. For example, a status build-up box is a very good locate for put money on up copies, big document etc.
As a company controller you too requirement to have handicap security. So if you get afflict you are encrusted until you are up and running once more. There are numeral of companies that accord particularly in disability security. I would offer yet you cheque them out carefully, and ask to mouth to extended instance patrons for references. You poorness to be confident they pay once you have need of them to without having to go done hoops, or canceling your amount after.
And record measurable is an protection line. The top sett company proposal we have saved is by Hartford Insurance. They have a principle particularly for abode based businesses. They lid everything. Obviously charge will be on the confines you set. This is the best argumentation we have found out there. For those of you who are AARP members you can call for 1-888-466-9675 to enquire almost this system. By the way, if you are 50 and done proper a AARP extremity is a essential.
If you poverty to maintain your commercial and yourself riskless be definite to instrumentation the procedures outlined. Believe us, you will be glad you did.

''Sport fans get tons of attention, but history fans don't get no respect.''
Those fighting words are from Mike Wallace, co-author of the Pultizer Prize-winning ''Gotham: A History of New York City to 1898,'' about the number of Web sites devoted to city history compared to sites that discuss how much money the Texas Rangers shortstop Alex Rodriguez earns per swinging strike.
Mr. Wallace, director of the Gotham Center for New York History, a nonprofit public education program at the city University of New York Graduate Center, wanted to help repair that imbalance. So staff at the center created a Web site about New York history, www.gothamenter.org, which was officially launched this month.
''We want to foster a virtual history community,'' he said, ''where people can discuss films and books about the city's past, reflect on their own neighborhood's development over time and find out what historical events are happening around town.''
The site's discussions are decorous, like a kaffeeklatsch at the Ethical Culture Society. But one offered this classic gripe about Rick Burns's documentary on New York: ''The attitude of the film was that everything important in New York happens in Manhattan, mostly south of 96th Street.''Continue reading the main story
Visitors can ask questions about the city, and will sometimes be answered. They will also find a listing of events like a forum on Thursday on the history of jazz in New York and the first New York City History Festival in October.
Mr. Wallace said the center planned to add features such as a time line, curriculumns for teachers, a pop quiz and historical documents, images, videos and music.
WHAT YOU SEE -- The center's dramatic logo, a big G projected Batman-style on a skyscraper, next to an old-fashioned table of contents. Click on any line, and you will be led through a list of topics, ranging from segregation in Stuyvesant Town to a question about whether droves of Wall Street workers really jumped from their office windows after the 1929 stock market crash.
LINKS -- To a multitude of New York history Web sites, walking tours, archives, museums and historic sites and associations. Have questions about the newly uncovered Atlantic Avenue subway tunnel or demolished movie palaces? You'll find answers.
WHAT YOU GET -- An omnibus of information about the city's history.

JEDEC's JC-64 Committee for Embedded Memory Storage and Removable Memory Cards is forming a subcommittee focused on the standardization of non-volatile wireless memory. The JC-64.9 Subcommittee for Wireless Memory will be chaired by Nokia and vice-chaired by Micron Technology and Samsung Semiconductor. JEDEC Solid State Technology Association is the global leader in standards development for the microelectronics industry.
Wireless memory is rapidly emerging as the next generation in data transfer technology. It will enable fast, wireless connectivity with read/write capability between mobile devices (Wireless Memory Hosts) and battery-free memory tags (Wireless Memory Tags). There is currently no standard for this type of high speed, low power wireless data transfer.
A standard is essential for enabling manufacturing, distribution and retail businesses to benefit from the 100+ Mbit/s transfer rates achieved at close proximity, using very low power wireless memory. It will also enable consumers to enjoy new, fast wireless experiences, such as downloading a music album in under 10 seconds in a store.
The new wireless memory activity in JC-64 is part of an ongoing effort within JEDEC to extend memory technologies to meet the industry's need for innovative solutions that best meet enterprise and consumer demands. All interested companies are welcome to participate in the development of open industry standards within JEDEC to help enable and grow the market for wireless memory.

Technical Notes:
The Tempest is a Mobile Suit, designed for partiular niche use of a blind pilot by the name of Damien marius, designed with a little bit of Diana influence. First, keeping to his usual piloting style, the suit is set out exactly as most third-generation Mobile Suits are, as far as cockpit design goes. The overall principle as a fast and agile Newtype-use suit - designed specifically for the condition of an eyeless blind man, using one piece of technology known as the 'Neuroptic Tracer Helmet'.
The Neuroptic Tracer Helmet is a special feature that allows a blind pilot full vision while inside a Mobile Suit. The Tracer injects two small studs, about eight millimetres long and five millimetres in diameter, into the optic nerves of the pilot, and directly transmit visual data from the cameras to the optic nerves, such that the visual nuclei can deal with them. As well as this, the helmet allows the pilot's head movements to move the head of the Mobile Suit, effectively 'tracing' the head motions of the pilot like newer helmets for fighter planes. The two studs come as part of a special helmet, on rotating bearings, so that shocks to the Mobile Suit will not do damage to them. This helmet is then connected to the Mobile Suit via cables to recieve data, such that the helmet's use is required for activation of the Tempest. The helmet also generates a semi-transparent 'HUD' overlay into the vision of the pilot, that allows the pilot to view targeting reticules, sensor data, and utilize the proximity warning effectively.
Other than this piece of technology, this suit is a general Newtype-use suit, utilizing both the Zanber from the Crossbone series of Mobile Weapons, and the funnel missile principles of the Penelope. Overall, the Tempest is designed to be a very agile and speedy unit, while packing a punch - and is not to be underestimated.

TV and Cars May Lead To Increased Diabetes Risk
Diabetes—in particular Type 2 Diabetes—has traditionally been considered a disease of affluence; countries such as the United States and Canada, as well as other "advanced" nations, have seen more cases of diabetes than countries that are less developed, with smaller economies. However, a recent study using data from the Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiological Study (PURE), found that it wasn't the affluence of the country—or the population—that necessarily predicted diabetes risk; it was the presence of TV, computers, and cars. Those with Type 2 Diabetes face a lifetime of monitoring their blood-glucose levels with Contour test strips or FreeStyle lancets, along with making changes to their lifestyle and taking medications. This recent research could help prevent many in developing nations—with less easy access to diabetic supplies—from developing the disease.
The researchers visited study participants from 17 countries that represent a range of economic conditions; a total of 153,996 individuals participated in the ongoing research study, including residents of Canada, Sweden, and the United Arab Emirates, alongside citizens of Pakistan, Zimbabwe, India, and Bangladesh among other countries. The scientists discovered that 83% of all households owned a television, and 30% owned a car—the same percentage as owned a computer. Of course, these possessions were more common in rich countries than in poor, with only 44% of rural households owning a TV. The results are interesting; overall, according to the researchers, owning a TV was associated with a 39% increase in risk for obesity and a 33% increase in the risk of diabetes on average. In countries like Zimbabwe and Bangladesh, diabetics have decreased access to important supplies such as FreeStyle lancets and other supplies for diabetes.
Interestingly, across populations, in the full sample of volunteers, there was no link between owning a car and the risk of diabetes, nor was there an increased risk between owning a computer and diabetes; however, when residents of low-income countries were considered on their own, owning any of the devices—TV, car, or computer—increased the risk of developing obesity and diabetes; compared to owning none of the devices, owning one increased diabetes risk by 38%, while owning two of the "modern devices" raised risk to 43%. Acquiring the devices made the most difference in low-income countries, which are also ones where important diabetic accessories are frequently difficult to find and purchase regularly. Of course, the study doesn't prove that these devices inherently cause obesity or diabetes; rather, the researchers stress, the increase in the ownership of those devices means that populations generally decrease activity levels, becoming more sedentary.
The research team concluded, "Exposure to household devices in the low income countries has only recently begun and, therefore, the negative effects of their ownership are more acute and may increase as ownership increases." This means that—tentatively—as more and more of the world embraces a lifestyle more reminiscent of the Western countries (with more time spent in passive entertainment, and less walking as the main form of transportation), cases of Type 2 Diabetes in developing nations may continue to rise, leading to higher demand for diabetic accessories.

Review Niagara University
I am an African american female attending Niagara University and I can honestly say it was a great decision to attend this college. As any senior in high school, I was afraid of choosing where I would spend my life for the next 4 years as an actual adult but the second I walked on campus the energy was extremely welcoming! I thought I wouldn't fit in much with the color of my skin and the lack of ethic people attending but they treat everyone with the exact same dignity and respect. There are also Black Student Union programs as well which is cool too! If you aren't considering Niagara University as one of your college choices, please reconsider because I guarantee you won't regret coming here.
Thus far, the students have had a strong impact in the changes that have been implemented since my freshman year, beginning in the Fall of 2014. Niagara University is a family friendly, and community involving University with a strong Vincentian heritage. The dining hall has been recently renovated and will be completed next month. The food quality and variety has improved tremendously. I am a Community Advisor (CA) which is similar to an RA at most schools. Being a CA has positively impacted my experience here. Housing at Niagara University is very highly priced especially for the limited housing options. Yes, there are several housing options as far as buildings, but the most recent addition has been the apartments across campus, but that is also the only housing offered that is constantly full. Our housing occupancy has been down, and that has forced us to finally consider allocating money towards updating our residence halls.
Small school so you can connect with your professors compared to larger state schools. Programs every Friday that include free food and fun entertainment like escape rooms, hypnotists, comedians, laser tag etc. Campus is surrounded by nature, 5 min walk from the gorge, 20 min walk to the whirlpool and if you have a car you can visit the falls or go to Canada. I would like to see more diversity with the staff and faculty members. And I would like to see more programs about different cultures including Spanish heritage, African culture, Middle Easern Culture and Asiatic Heritage.

New Line Cinema, founded in 1967, is one of the ten major Hollywood movie studios. It is a subsidiary of Time Warner. The current co-chairmen and co-CEOs are founder Robert Shaye and Michael Lynne.
Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings has New Line Cinema to thank for funding them, something which other film companies were afraid to do.

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
This is a durable power of attorney and I previously had my former foster parents be my power of attorney but since my domestic violence incident with my husband I am no longer talking with my former foster parents. Ii am living with my friend and she is my new power of attorney.
I have revoked my previous power of attorney and have the new one in place.
The social worker will not talk to my new power of attorney because she believes that my friend which is my poa is controlling me and abusing me and my son. My daughter and her son have nothing on them and they are not concerned about them. I am looking for legal advice so when I meet with the social worker this afternoon I can make sure my poa is not at risk for following to jail and getting looked at as abusing me and my son.
The other problem is I don't have an attorney because I am on social securityddisability and only get $500 per month. I have been looking for an attorney who is willing to take a pro bono case for all my legal issues because they all go together. The cps accusations are because of my soon to be former husband.
Ok, thank you so much. Do I register as a new user on the website so I can save this conversation and ask for more advice if any other legal questions arise?

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have a month to month lease for my small business. Nothing is in writing as there have been two new owners to the property since I first signed a lease more than ten years ago. The current ownership group indicated they may be planning on canceling the lease. Do they have to give me a certain time to leave such as 30 days and must the cancellation be in writing or is a verbal notification enough?
If your original lease has not yet expired, it is likely still in effect. The change of owners does not normally terminate a lease; instead, the new owner steps into the shoes of the old owner with respect to any existing lease agreements. In general, a month-to-month lease is in effect if you pay your rent monthly and there is no written lease in effect. Under this type of commercial lease, you normally are entitile to 30 days' notice of termination, assuming you are current in payment of the rent, and are not otherwise in breach of your duties as a tenant (ie, you have not caused damage to the premises, you comply with landlord rules, etc.) Verbal notification is technically sufficient, but is alway subject to dispute, so landlords rarely rely on a mere verbal notice.Ask a similar question
Based on what you have posted it appears that a 30-day notice to terminate the lease would be fine.Ask a similar question

Gangway Bully Vision
Gangway Bullies is a partner with
other small bully kennel owners in
Northeast Ohio. In short, we want to produce healthy and
high quality English Bulldogs, American Bullies, and Olde English Bulldogges that will be good representations
of the breed for many years to come. Needless to say, there will be
some variations in the sizes and features depending on the sires and
dams used in the breeding. Our goal is to produce good
bully looking dogs based on the current conformation
standards for their respective breed. Gangway has owned bully breeds
since 1995 and has been breeding for more than 15 years starting out
with Bullmastiffs. We work in conjunction with each other to keep things manageable
so that no one has to house more
than six dogs on their premises that we use in our breeding and

dogs with the best of care. .
The English Bulldog (Bulldog)
Bulldogs have comparatively small statures, they are
stout, exceptionally sturdy, and widely built. They have muscular legs
that are set squarely and contribute to the breed's "waddle".
Their heads are thick and very large-sized with cheeks that reach the
sides of their eyes. The Bulldog's muzzle is short and pug and
features a broad black nose with wide nostrils. Their upper lips are
pendent and close over an undershot lower jaw. Bulldogs have round dark
eyes that are set far apart and a pair of small, thin ears that are
folded back. Their short tails are carried low. The coat of this breed
exists in a number of colors including red, washed-out red, white,
brindle, pale yellow, or fawn. Many coats of this breed are a mixture of
several of the above colors.

The American
The American Bully should give the impression of great strength for
its size. Compact to medium/large size dog with a muscular body and
blocky head. Powerful in its movement and should display effortless
movement at the same time. Keenly alive and alert to its surroundings.
The American Bully should have the appearance of heavy bone structure
with a Bully build and look.

The Olde English Bulldogge
The Olde English Bulldogge is a
contemporary recreation of the original 18th century Bulldogge
which became extinct. Please understand that this dog no longer existed
at some point in nature. What we see today is a variety of perceived
versions of what we believed the dog to look like and act like prior to
extinction. Current OEB lines can only be traced back about forty years.
Developed during the 1970s by David Leavitt, this breed was
re-created using an English Bulldog, Bullmastiff, American Bulldog, and
Pit Bull. Mr. Leavitt's goal was to produce an Olde English Bulldogge
that was not violent in temperament and free of the health problems
associated with English Bulldogs. Other breeders such as Greg and Linda
Hermes have also been instrumental in the restoration of the breed along
with a number of other breeders across the country.
Because of personal
preference our OEB's tails will be docked and they will carry a
significant percentage of Hermes bloodlines
in their pedigrees. This line breeding gene pool program tends to
produce very athletic and impressive looking dogs when they reach
full maturity. Please be mindful that the current conformation
standard is looking for a slightly smaller dog than those that were
produced 10-20 years ago. Males should
be 18 to 20 inches at the shoulder and weighing 65 to 85 lbs. Females should be 17 to 19 inches at the shoulders and
weighing 50 to 70 lbs. The days of the 100+
pound Oldes are no longer desired in the show ring.
The standards have moved to a slightly smaller over the years. The
bottom line is to get better in quality, not just bigger in litters and

Club Sports
Club Sports are another tremendous opportunity for students, not only to participate in a sport that they love, but to understand the details and responsibilities of organizing fellow students toward a common goal in a team. Club members work with the Recreation office to hire coaches, plan and schedule practices, schedule contests, and work with an operating budget. Each club sport, like all student clubs on campus, must have a constitution and club officers responsible for the team. Many clubs are in place, but if you don't see the club you want, you can start a new one.

Woe unto the restaurant chain that fails to give Americans exactly what they want, at the moment they want it, and at just the price they want to pay.
These days, even as eating out continues to increase in popularity, restaurant companies are scrambling for customers in an ever-more-competitive environment. Moderate-priced restaurants -- the Denny's and Red Lobsters -- are trying to keep up with tastes so fickle that only a few years ago red meat was spurned as a controlled substance, but is now prized as a profitable menu item. At the same time, these midlevel chains are being pummeled from below by fast-food outlets and squashed from above by slightly classier restaurants.
Although older independents like Peter Luger's in Brooklyn and Joe's Stone Crab in Miami have had long runs and remain popular, "the life cycle for chain-restaurant concepts has gotten briefer," said Ron Paul, president of Technomic Inc., a Chicago-based restaurant consultant. "People are always looking for the new kid on the block."
A sharp object lesson was the bankruptcy filing earlier this month of Sizzler International Inc., the nationwide steakhouse chain, which closed 136 of its restaurants, let go 4,600 employees and sought Chapter 11 protection.
Although Sizzler called this a restructuring, "I'd call it a little bit more like something Jason would do in the 'Friday the 13th' movies," said Bill Carlino, an editor at Nation's Restaurant News.Continue reading the main story
Why did Sizzler fizzle? "Sizzler got old, got banged up, didn't respond until it was too late," Mr. Carlino said. "And when they did, it was the wrong strategy." Some fast-food chains provide menus nearly as broad as Sizzler's for a dollar or two less, while slightly more formal family restaurants offer sit-down dining for a dollar or two more. Sizzler got caught in the middle, unable to find just the right formula.
Customers edged away. "There are so many new places to go," said K. M. Woo, who used to be a more frequent patron but still eats about once a week in a Sizzler near his home in Tuckahoe, N.Y., and has also sampled Sizzlers in New Mexico and Texas.
Initially, adding salad bars and buffets was seen as a panacea for restaurants like Sizzler trying to slake customers' craving for variety. They also seemed the perfect answer to Americans' schizophrenic desire to eat healthier while consuming a prodigious amount of food, or at least enough to reach a satisfying level of -- as restaurant managers term it -- "gut-fill."
But buffet food takes a lot of labor to prepare and keep fresh all day, and brings much lower profits than entrees like steak. The expanse of buffet stations cuts down on seating capacity. And the foray by Sizzler into grazing muddied its bring-the-whole-family-down-to-the-steakhouse image.
Sizzler is hardly suffering alone. Shoney's, another midlevel chain, is also caught in a squeeze, with sales and profit margins steadily eroding. Cafeteria chains like Furr's, as well as Mexican-themed chains like Chi-Chi's and El Torito, both units of Family Restaurants Inc., are struggling. Even some of Sizzler's more upscale steakhouse rivals, like Steak & Ale, a unit of the Metromedia Company, are stagnant as they try to respond to the success of brash new competitors like Outback Steakhouse and Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloons.
What works? One model is Red Lobster, the nation's largest casual dining chain. Red Lobster, a unit of Darden Restaurants, has never abandoned its focus on seafood, but has kept in tune with the tastes of middle-class Americans with design changes like a "wharfside" look and it has remained competitive through aggressive price promotions. "They have gone through three or four major transformations," said Mr. Paul, the consultant. "Without such changes, they would be doomed."
Another old-timer, the International House of Pancakes, a unit of the IHOP Corporation, has grown steadily for years, never straying from its breakfast-all-day format. And Denny's, against long odds, has rebounded after a shakeup designed to end racial discrimination practiced at some of its restaurants. "They've never lost their focus as a broad-menu, midscale coffee shop," Mr. Paul said. Denny's is a unit of Flagstar Companies Inc.
A look at Sizzler's up-and-down story gives a taste of the risks at this level of the restaurant game.
Sizzler and other steakhouse chains were gored by the decline in demand for red meat more than a decade ago, when, as Mr. Paul put it, "Dad was told he can't have steak three or four nights a week any more."
For a while, Sizzler ignored the trend, but then, faced with declining sales, began a dizzying series of special menu offerings, salad bars and buffet extravaganzas that confused customers. "Sizzler had a strong brand name, and it's very hard to change gears without losing focus," said Nick Valenti, chairman of Restaurant Associates, the owner of the Charlie Brown steakhouse chain. Restaurant Associates, in turn, is owned by the Kyotaru Company.
The switch backfired, though, because Sizzler was not designed to make money on buffet items. "Buffet chains are mini-factories," Mr. Paul said, "designed from the ground up to be buffets, and they're 10,000-square-foot stores, about twice the size of many Sizzlers." The Sizzlers, configured as steakhouses, don't have the room for 100-item food bars and can't generate the high volume that makes buffets profitable.
About five years ago, meanwhile, red meat started coming back in favor, and is now "a major growth sector in the restaurant industry, if you think of the high-end chains like Morton's, and the casual-dining chains like Outback and Lone Star," said David S. Leibowitz, a managing director of Burnham Securities who follows the restaurant industry.
That didn't help Sizzler, though, because "with the resurgence of interest in red meat, people decided that if they won't have it that often, they'd rather do it right, with a better piece of steak," Mr. Paul said. "So customers would pay a few dollars more" and go elsewhere.
Indeed, Sizzler's woes signal trouble for a whole class of restaurants, a $3.4 billion group that those in the trade dub, variously, "family steakhouses," "grill-buffets" or "value steakhouses."
"As the mass-market customer has become more sophisticated about food, the budget steakhouse chains have become less relevant," Mr. Paul said. These chains, he said, have steadily lost customers for 20 years.
Instead, customers went to places where they could dine a bit more graciously without facing a much higher tab. "Sizzler lost a lot of traffic to dinner-house chains such as Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar," Mr. Carlino said, "because for a few bucks more, customers could get table service." The check average for Sizzler is $7.50, compared with $8 for Applebee's and $14 for an Outback or Lone Star.
All in all, Sizzler, after 39 years, looked stale. "Concepts come and go in the restaurant field now as frequently as in the retailing arena," Mr. Leibowitz said. "A new concept is only good for two or three years before you have to revitalize it in one fashion or another.
"If people think of your restaurants as stale," Mr. Leibowitz added, "your faithful patrons will become cleverly disguised as empty seats."
That's the predicament Sizzler faced up to in filing June 3 for Chapter 11 protection, a move that analysts say it used as a way to get out of 136 unprofitable restaurant leases, a tactic previously employed by retail chains.
Sizzler, which started in 1957 in a glorified trailer in Culver City, Calif. and is now based in West Los Angeles, said it would take a $108.9 million charge against earnings, or $3.92 a share, resulting in a loss for the fiscal year. It will be left in the United States with 85 company-owned units and 235 franchised restaurants, most of them on the West Coast, as well as 136 restaurants internationally.
Sizzler's hope for the future is the more upmarket Sizzler American Grills, which feature table service, menus, and higher-quality food, implicitly acknowledging that the chain's offerings no longer measure up to what diners expect. The company hopes to convert all its restaurants to the format at an average cost of $130,000 apiece.
Kevin Perkins, Sizzler's president and chief executive, said the restructuring and Chapter 11 filing had returned the company to operating profitability. Indeed, Mr. Leibowitz said, it "will hasten the rollout of the Sizzler American Grills."
"The restructuring," he added, "will shrink the company to a far more reasonable size, leaving it with cash flow for the conversions to the new concept."
The challenge remains formidable, as new competitors are appearing all the time. A day after the Sizzler announcement, Buffets Inc., operator of Old Country Buffet restaurants, and Hometown Buffet Inc. agreed to merge, creating the nation's 25th-largest restaurant chain, with 332 locations and combined sales of $661 million.
But new concepts alone are not a panacea, as Sizzler learned with its higher-ticket Buffalo Ranch Steakhouse chain. Sizzler closed the entire six-restaurant chain this month. In addition, Sizzler has been losing out to the excitement and glitz of smaller chains like Hard Rock Cafe, a unit of the Rank Organization, and Planet Hollywood. Although the newer restaurants offer standard burgers and salads that are available elsewhere, they also provide a glamorous edge with their show-biz memorabilia and marketing passion. "Absent the food," Mr. Leibowitz said, "you can always give your customers a show."Continue reading the main story

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I'm on H-1B visa here in the US. I'm planning to get married to a girl who does not have parents ( both died both her parents died when she was young. She has a sister who is an autistic ( slow learner). Her sister is totally dependent on her as she does not have parents. Can I apply for my girl friend and her sister's visa if we get married? What if I get my green card?
If you get married, your spouse can enter the U.S. as an H4. Her siblings cannot. You could try to file for humanitarian parole if she is the only one supporting her sister.
The above is intended only as general information, and does not constitute legal advice. You must speak with an attorney to discuss your individual case.Ask a similar question
Your question omitted a few key facts. First, where is your girl friend located now? Is she located abroad or is she in the United States in another legal status? If you marry, she may be classified in H-4 status upon presentation of your marriage certificate/license at the U.S. Embassy in her country or upon filing an I-539 application for change of nonimmigrant status in the U.S. with all supporting documents including proof of your marriage if she is in the United States as above. As to her sister, she would not be immediately eligible for a status derivative from your H-1b status. If you become a permanent resident (green card holder), when you marry your girlfriend she could get a green card at the same time if she is already in the U.S. in H-4 status. There may be special relief available to your girlfriend's sister in law but it would by no means be a certainty. I would suggest contacting an experienced immigration attorney who can discuss a strategy with you. Good luck!

The Chronicle is reporting tonight that Newcastle have received six "firm offers" for Moussa Sissoko so far this summer.
It seems that three Premier League clubs plus three continental clubs have put in offers for the player who was a star of the Euro 2016 tournament in France in the summer.
Moussa Sissoko – in French colors in the summer
But none of the offers have been close to the £35M fee Newcastle seem determined to get for the 6ft 2ins powerful midfielder.
However, Newcastle do expect further bids to come in before the transfer window slams shot on Wednesday night at 11:00 pm and it has to be a decent bet that Moussa will not be a Newcastle player on September 1st.
But you never know.
The midfielder is still reported to be desperate to leave the club and unfortunately it seems Newcastle are willing to lower their price to £25M to get a deal.
That's a pity – we should stand firm and if we don't get a big enough bid then Moussa will just have to hunker down and stay at the club where he still has three years left on his contract.
But that view may not be shared by other Newcastle fans, most of whom just want the guy to leave after his embarrassing comments about wanting to leave the club for the last two years.
There will not be any loan move for Moussa.
The Chronicle is reporting that Italian clubs Inter Milan and Juventus plus Spanish giants Real Madrid have all put in bids for the player – that's in spite of the Madrid club denying any interest in the midfielder.
Crystal Palace, Everton and West Brom are three Premier League clubs who have submitted formal bids.
So none of the big Premier League clubs have bid for Sissoko and those three are not Champions League clubs and nowhere near qualifying either.
Moussa would prefer to stay in England, or at least that's one of the things he has said this summer.
West Brom are reported to be confident they can offer Moussa good acceptable terms – so it would certainly be interesting if Moussa ends up at either Crystal Palace or West Brom.
Both clubs are much smaller clubs than Newcastle United and certainly don't have the rich history of the Magpies and they don't have world-class managers in charge either.
Rafa has won the Champions League once and been beaten finalists once – and he's won the Europa League twice.
But both clubs are still in the Premier League.
We'll just have to wait and see what happens with the Sissoko saga before next Thursday, when the transfer window will have closed.
Thank goodness.
What do you think?
Comments welcome.

Knowledge and skills are learned capabilities that can determine a person's career path. Character traits are distinguishing qualities that can determine a person's level of success. Since career paths and work climates are diverse, there is not a universal list of character traits that predict success, but there are many qualities that tend to characterize the overachievers.
Motivation and Passion
Some people have dreams, ideas or plans that are never realized. This is often due to a lack of motivation, which is the drive to get something done. People with successful careers usually do not need to be coaxed, persuaded or threatened with consequences such as job termination to do their jobs properly. They are driven by their own motivations -- whether it's money, career advancement or work ethic -- to meet their goals and expectations. Passion is usually the root of motivation. A passionate professional is one who is eager to engage in her work and takes a thoughtful approach to it. This positive attitude is reflected in the results, which is why people are encouraged to work at jobs they enjoy.
Confidence and Determination
Confidence is a driver of success because it is a reflection of a person's belief system. People experience the best results when they believe in their personal abilities and the products and services they offer. Being the best and offering the best is often a challenge that needs to be met with determination, which allows people to overcome obstacles and continually achieve. Bosses and customers look for these qualities in successful professionals.
Independent and Responsible
Successful people are usually leaders, creators and problem solvers even if they are not in management positions. As such, they are usually not as heavily reliant on direction as their peers. Those who are independent enjoy the challenge of completing tasks and making decisions on their own. With independence comes responsibility, and successful people should know how to handle it. Being responsible means more than doing what obviously needs to be done. It can include addressing situations as they arise or jumping on emerging opportunities. Successful people must also know how to assume responsibility for failures, errors or other problems that arise.
Successful people understand the value of being personable despite changes in communication technologies. No matter how you communicate with colleagues and customers -- whether on the phone, in person or through electronic means -- people who are successful have a gift for communicating in a clear, friendly and effective manner.
In a fast-paced world, adaptability is an important part of career success. The days of being able to do one thing in one way have passed. Successful people accept that they must alter and expand their skills, knowledge and strategies to keep up with changing work trends and technologies. They also understand that it is necessary to take on new roles and responsibilities under the banner of the same position.
