This application for patent claims the benefit of priority from, and hereby incorporates by reference the entire disclosure of, co-pending U.S. provisional application for patent serial No. 60/270,819, filed Feb. 22, 2001.
The invention disclosed and claimed herein generally pertains to a method for dynamically reserving, maintaining and releasing resources in a network using quality of service (QoS) management architecture. More particularly, the invention pertains to a method of the above type wherein either a part or the whole aggregated reservation state is established, maintained and released using a combination of the soft state principle and the explicit release principle.
The increasing diversity of internet applications, from the most simple ones such as e-mail and web browsing to multimedia screening applications like IP Telephony and Videoconferencing, has raised the demand for Quality of Service in the Internet. On the other hand, in the highly competitive environment of Internet Service Providers (ISPs), satisfying customer needs regardless of whether they are other ISPs or end users is key to their survival. Therefore, the desire of ISPs to provide value-added services to their customers is growing immensely. These demands have led to the evolvement of QoS on the Internet as a necessity. Enabling QoS on the best effort Internet model introduces complexity in several areas, from applications, different networking layers and network architectures to network management and business models. All these aspects have been major research topics over the past few years. Finding an efficient solution for end-to-end QoS over an Internet that will satisfy both ISPs and their customers is very difficult.
Quality of service can be provided by dynamically reserving resources for a flow of data. When dynamic QoS is required, reservation states have to be created in the nodes between the source and destination of the flow. The reservation states can be kept either per flow or per aggregate, i.e., a bundle of flows or flows belonging to a certain category of traffic (also known as class of service, CoS). Currently, two types of QoS management are standardized in the Internet, which are referred to respectively as RSVP, for Resource Reservation Protocol, and Diffserv, for Differentiated Services. In RSVP QoS is maintained on a per flow basis. However, due to the non-trivial amount of storage and processing required in each intermediate node, RSVP does not scale well when going deeper into the core of the network where all flows come together. Thus, in real systems, RSVP is not scalable to very large internet networks.
Diffserv is a per aggregate QoS management system. Accordingly, Diffserv scales very well, because states are kept per class of service in each intermediate node and are subject to a fixed limit. However, Diffserv is generally unable to dynamically adjust to changing resource requirements between the various CoSs. More particularly, Diffserv is not flexible enough to accommodate requirements for changes in the amount of reservations per CoS.
Currently, a protocol and method known as Load Control is used to make Diffserv more flexible. This method is described, for example, in an Internet document entitled "Load Control of Real Time Traffic" Westberg et al., draft-westberg-loadcntr-03.txt, April 2000 (Work in progress). Load Control uses reservation and refresh requests to establish and maintain an aggregated reservation state in the interior network nodes. The ingress nodes to the interior network accept reservations for microflows, and then translate them into a resource request for the aggregated reservations in the interior nodes. The egress nodes deaggregate these flows and continue the QoS for a particular microflow to its destination. The algorithm in the interior nodes uses soft state principles and a global, optionally synchronized refresh period. In order to maintain a reservation, a refresh request must be sent at the end of each refresh period in a sequence of refresh periods. When a refresh request is not received for more than a refresh period, an associated part of the aggregated state is released back to the unused resources, ready to be reserved again. This arrangement is referred to as "soft-state" because there is an automatic change of state, that is, certain resources go from being reserved to not being reserved, if a refresh request is not timely received.
The load control method enables the internal aggregated reservation state to be reserved and maintained per external reservation request, without the interior nodes being required to keep state on a per flow basis. However, a significant disadvantage of Load Control is that resources cannot be explicitly released. Thus, it can take as much as an entire refresh period to be able to re-use resources which have been reserved. This means that the reservation soft state is maintained longer than necessary, preventing utilization of resources in the interior nodes during this time. A trade-off must be made between the refresh period length and the overhead cost of sending refresh packets. With a shorter period, the interior nodes can react faster to reservations that are no longer used, but this requires more signaling overhead due to the higher frequency at which refresh request packets are sent.
At present, to improve use of RSVP in QoS management, RSVP microflow reservations can be aggregated in the interior network. One example of such solution is known as RSVP aggregation, described in the Request for Comments (RFC) 3175, entitled, "Aggregation of RSVP for IPv4 and IPv6 Reservations", Baker et al., RFC 3175, Standards Track, September 2001. RSVP aggregation uses a combination of reservation softstate and explicit release principles. The edge nodes are either aggregators or deaggregators for RSVP microflows. The aggregators combine the microflows into aggregated flows for each destination (always a deaggregator), and the interior nodes are required to keep state per aggregate flow. The number of flow-states in the interior nodes can be as much as the number of aggregators multiplied by the number of deaggregators. The interior states can be updated (for each new or terminating microflow), and can be explicitly released by the edge nodes. Since the aggregated reservation state can be explicitly released, the time during which unused resources cannot be reserved for other microflows tends to be reduced. However, the aggregated reservation state can be updated at any time after receiving an explicit release request. If this updating time is near the end of the refresh period, the resources will be unavailable for longer than necessary, thus wasting resources in the interior nodes of the network. Moreover, due to the fact that the complete aggregated reservation state must be established, maintained and released at once, it is necessary for the interior nodes to store the ID or identifier of the aggregated reservation request.
The invention provides an efficient way of establishing, maintaining and releasing either a part of or the entire aggregated reservation state, using a combination of reservation soft state and explicit release principles. Thus, while the method maintains an aggregated reservation state, it still allows per microflow changes to the reservation without keeping explicit state per microflow. Since parts of the aggregated reservation state can be established, maintained and released, it is not necessary to store any identity of the resource request. Moreover, since part of the aggregated reservation state can be explicitly released, the time during which resources cannot be reserved by other requesting services tends to be reduced.
One embodiment of the invention uses a sliding time window algorithm that is split into a number of sub-windows or cells. The sliding window algorithm makes possible fast reaction times, without diminishing the period for refresh requests. Thus, the sliding window algorithm reduces the time during which unused resources are kept reserved. Overhead may be at most one refresh period plus one cell length. When release requests are also used, overhead may be reduced to at most one cell length. While the invention usefully applies to a Diffserv oriented QoS system in an internet network, embodiments of the invention also apply to other kinds of QoS schemes using aggregated reservation soft-states for QoS management.
In one embodiment, the invention comprises a resource management method for a network having interior nodes positioned between ingress and egress nodes, wherein requests to reserve, maintain and release resource units for respectively corresponding data microflows are continually being received by the interior network. The method includes the step of detecting respective requests to reserve, maintain and release resource units arriving at the interior nodes during a selected cell in a sequence of time cells. A first resource count is computed after the selected cell, which represents the cumulative result of all reserve, maintenance, and release requests arriving at the interior network during a first time period defined by a sliding window, wherein the first time period comprises the selected cell and a specified number of additional cells which precede the selected cell in the time cell sequence. The method further includes the steps of reserving a number of resource units corresponding to the computed first count, for a first reservation period following the selected time cell, and sliding the window to define a second time period. The second time period includes the time cell next following the selected cell in the sequence, and excludes the oldest cell of the first time period. A second resource count associated with the second time period is then computed, for use in reserving resource units for a second reservation period following the first reservation period.
Preferably, reservation of resource units for a given one of the microflows is maintained by one or more refresh requests which arrive at specified intervals following the initial reservation request for the given microflow. Each of the specified intervals comprises a refresh period which is equal in length to both the first and second time periods defined by the sliding window. Preferably also, reservation of resource units for the given microflow is released when a corresponding release request arrives at the interior network. A preferred embodiment of the invention comprises the further steps of detecting a release request for the given microflow during a particular time period defined by the window, and then determining whether a refresh request for the given microflow was received during a previous cell included in the particular time period. If so, the number of resource units reserved for the given microflow is subtracted from a resource count associated with the previous cell.
FIG. 1 is a simplified block diagram showing a network in which an embodiment of the invention may be practiced.
FIGS. 2-5 are timing diagrams, useful for illustrating an embodiment of the invention, which show requests associated with reservation of resources for the network of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 shows a simplified system which may be used in implementing an embodiment of the invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown an internet network 10 connected between hosts 12 and 14 representing the source and destination, respectively, of continual data microflows directed through the network 10. Network 10 uses QoS management and comprises ingress and egress nodes 16 and 18, collectively comprising edge nodes, and an interior network 20 positioned between the edge nodes. Interior network 20 includes a number of interior nodes exemplified by nodes 20 a-20 c.
In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, resources are dynamically reserved in network 10 for microflow traffic on a per aggregate basis. As stated above, an aggregate is a bundle of flows, or flows belonging to certain categories or classes of traffic. For example, as is known by those of skill in the art, resources to be reserved within a network for respective microflows could comprise amounts of bandwidth. A particular class of traffic would include all of the microflows that have similar performance demands, such as bandwidth assurance, delay and packet losses. Usually, a class of traffic is predefined and standardised by the IETF standardisation body.
Ingress node 16 of network 10 is a node capable of accepting flows of traffic to be aggregated in respective reservation states or classes within the interior nodes of interior network 20. Egress node 18 is capable of deaggregating microflows from interior network 20 to external nodes (not shown) and each of the interior nodes of interior network 20, such as nodes 20 a-20 c, can communicate with external nodes only through the ingress and egress nodes. Exterior nodes, which are not shown, are all nodes in network 10 that are not interior, egress or ingress nodes.
It will be seen that interior network 20 is a per aggregate QoS Management System, and is accordingly designated as a Diffserv Domain. However, in an embodiment of the invention an algorithm associated with interior network 20 allows per microflow changes to aggregated resource reservations, without keeping state per microflow, that is, without keeping track of individual microflows.
In the operation of network 10, the ingress node 16 receives resource requests from the external nodes, e.g., host 12, processes them and transforms them into an edge to edge reservation through the intermediate interior nodes of interior network 20. Thus, both ingress and egress nodes keep track of the microflows, but interior nodes do not see individual flows at all. In accordance with the protocol for reservation in the interior network, the ingress node gets a reservation request (e.g. using a per microflow reservation protocol like RSVP) and translates the reservation request into a resource request for the interior network. The reservation request specifies the aggregated state to which it pertains (e.g. using Diffserv DSCP service class). The request further specifies the number of resource units u to be reserved in the interior network for the particular microflow associated with the request. The reservation is carried out by sending a resource request through the interior network 20 to the egress node 18. In the intermediate interior nodes, the request is processed and, provided the resources are available, a change in the specified aggregated reservation state is made.
If a resource request cannot be granted due to lack of resources, the ingress node must be informed and must make sure that the reservation is not continued. For this purpose the interior nodes will mark the request for the egress node, which in turn informs the ingress node about the problem.
Subsequent to the reservation request for a particular microflow, the ingress node must send a refresh request, specifying the amount of units u for the particular microflow, after a fixed time referred to as a refresh period. If the refresh request is not received within the refresh period, the resource reservation for the particular microflow will terminate, and the aggregated state will be reduced by the amount of units u reserved for the particular microflow. This reduction of reserved units occurs without the interior nodes of internet 20 knowing the identity of the microflow for which the units are released.
More generally, in order to maintain the reservation of resource units u for a particular microflow, successive refresh requests associated therewith must be received at intervals following the initial reservation request, each interval being equal to the refresh period. This requirement is illustrated in FIG. 2, which shows arrival at the interior network of a reservation request R for a microflow, followed by arrival of periodic refresh requests F at intervals equal to the refresh period.
The refresh period determines how long resources are kept reserved after the last refresh request has been received. During this time, these resources cannot be reserved by other flows. From the perspective of signaling overhead, it is desirable to have longer refresh periods, but this has the side effect of reducing the efficiency of the use of resources in the interior nodes. Accordingly, it will be desirable to terminate a particular resource reservation by sending a release request, corresponding to the reservation and its associated microflow. This is illustrated in FIG. 3, which shows arrival of a release request L at the interior network 20, following arrival of the resource request R and a refresh request F. FIG. 3 further shows release request L following the refresh request by a time Δt. For reasons which will become more apparent hereinafter, a release request L contains or is accompanied by Δt, the time since the most recent refresh request (or time since the reservation request if there have been no refresh requests). The refresh request also contains the number of resource units u reserved for the associated microflow
Since reserved resources cannot be used by other microflows, it is advantageous to release resources associated with the release request as soon as possible, after the request arrives at interior network 20. In particular, it is desirable to avoid waiting until the end of the current refresh period, to see whether or not another refresh request is received. Accordingly, an embodiment of the invention provides a sliding window algorithm, which may be used in connection with a release packet delivering a release request to interior network 20, in order to significantly reduce the release response time.
Referring to FIG. 4, there is shown a sliding window 22, which defines a time period having the same length as the refresh period. The window is split or divided into a specified number of time cells 24 in a sequence of time cells. This number can be tuned or adjusted to enhance performance.
FIG. 4 further shows the window 22 depicted as a solid line defining a time period T1, which is exactly equal to one refresh period. The final time cell in time period T1 is the cell 24 a. Accordingly, time cell 24 a is the current cell, just before the end of time period T1. When cell 24 a ends, time period T1 likewise ends and window 22 is slided or shifted by one cell, to the position depicted in FIG. 4 by a dashed line. Window 22 then defines a time period T2, which is again exactly equal to one refresh period. Time period T2 includes time cell 24 b, the cell which immediately follows cell 24 a in the sequence of cells, and is thus the new current cell. Time period T2 includes all the cells of time period T1, except for the oldest cell thereof, 24 c.
The arrangement shown in FIG. 4 is useful in better understanding the sliding window algorithm associated with an embodiment of the invention. In accordance with the algorithm, as disclosed in the Pseudocode of the Algorithm set forth hereafter, an rfcount is derived for cell 24 a during the time that cell 24 a is the current cell. More particularly, the rfcount is the cumulative total of all resource units which are reserved and refreshed during cell 24 a. Thus, the rfcount represents the combined effect of all reservation requests R and refresh requests F which arrive at interior network 20 during cell 24 a for respective individual microflows. Note that since the ID of each microflow is not registered the individual microflows can not be distinguished by any interior node.
After the conclusion of cell 24 a, the rfcount is combined with a lastsum to determine a newsum. For period T1 the lastsum represents the cumulative total of all resource units reserved, refreshed and released during all the cells of period T1, except current cell 24 a. The newsum is derived by adding the rfcount to the lastsum, and subtracting therefrom the resource unit count for the oldest cell 24 c. It will be seen that the newsum for time period T1 becomes the lastsum, when window 22 is shifted to define period T2 and when cell 24 b becomes the current cell. Thus, by providing the algorithm of the embodiment of the invention, the newsum representing the total number of reserved resource units is updated following each time cell 24. As stated above, the reserved resource units may comprise an amount of reserved bandwidth. Updating this information with the frequency of respective cells can be very useful in enhancing management of resources in network 10.
Referring to FIG. 5, there is shown a release request L arriving at interior network 20 during cell 24 a of time period T1. When an interior node receives a release request for a particular resource reservation, it stores the arrival time. It then calculates the difference between the arrival time of the release request and the start of the current window, that is, the time period which is currently defined by the window. This value is called ta in FIG. 5. ta is then compared with the Δt value. If the Δt value is smaller, it is known that the most recent refresh request arrived during the current window. Accordingly, the countarray associated to the cell wherein the refresh request was received, is reduced by the number of resource units included in the release request "L" that previously arrived at the interior node. FIG. 5 shows such cell to be cell 24 d. The countarray of a cell is an array containing the total number of counted resource units received during the cell. It will be seen that by following the above procedure, the lastsum computed for time period T1, wherein cell 24 a is the current cell, is corrected to show the effect of release request L.
If the last refresh request was sent very close to the beginning of the current window, it is difficult to be certain whether the refresh packet was received before or inside the current window. This is because of delay variations in the delivery of the requests. Note that the release request is processed correctly when the variable countarray is not decreased if the last reservation/refresh request associated with this release request was received before the time period in which the release packet was received. The variable countarray should only be decreased if the last reservation/refresh request associated with this release request was received in the same time period as the release request. Moreover, the interior node must not decrease the countarray variable if the Δt is just a little smaller then ta. There may be a configurable constant, based on delay variations of signaling packets, that specifies how much smaller Δt should be before decreasing the countarray variable.
Referring to FIG. 6, there is shown a microprocessor based device, such as computer device 26, and a related data storage apparatus 28. The microprocessor device 26 and storage apparatus 28 can be used in combination to implement an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. For example, instructions stored in the storage apparatus 20 may direct the microprocessor to provide information in accordance with procedures set forth above.
The following is Psuedocode of the Sliding Window Algorithm for implementing an embodiment of the invention.
nrofcells = 15
// number of cells in the periodlength
countarray[0..nrofcells-1] = 0
// exactly nrofcells cells in countarray
rfcount = 0
// count of refresh/reserve packets in current cell
// external variable representing the traffic for this class
// "invariants" at the cell boundary:
lastsum = sum from i=0 to nrofcells-1 of countarray[i]
// lastsum represents the total amount of reserved bandwidth up to the current cell for a
// complete refresh period-length
newsum = lastsum - countarray[0] + rfcount
// see this as a macro that is constantly up to
// newsum is going to be the "lastsum" for the next cell. so the oldest cell is left out
// and the new rfcount (refresh/reserve) value is included.
p = arriving packet
// containing the no. of units and delta t (if p=release req.)
// there are 2 options for which cell p is processed in:
a - the cell active at the time of arrival and
b - the cell active at the time of processing
(a) is preferable from a protocol perspective, but may be more difficult to implement,
since it requires an extra check when going to the next cell, to check if there are still
packets in the queue for the current cell.
select on p
case p = reservation packet
p(u) + lastsum <= threshold
//p(u) is number of reserved units
rfcount += p(u)
lastsum += p(u)
mark p
end if
case p = refresh packet
p(u) + newsum <= threshold
rfcount += p(u)
mark p
end if
case p = release packet
lastsum >= p(u)
// can't release more than is reserved
c = find_cell (p(Δt))
// p(Δt) is the time since the last
// reserve/refresh packet was sent
if countarray[c] >= p(u)
countarray[c] −= p(u)
countarray[c] = 0
// probably an error, maybe do nothing?
lastsum −= p(u)
// update the reserved bandwidth
if c > 0 then newsum −= p(u)
// don't change newsum when c is outside
the range of newsum
// do nothing! this is probably an error, so ignore it and let
// the softstate handle it.
end if
end select
on event: cell ends
// advance the window to the next cell
countarray(nrofcells) = rfcount
lastsum = sum(countarray)
// sum all the cells in countarray
newsum = lastsum − countarray [0]
rfcount = 0
function slide_window( a : array ) {
// after this operation, a[0] contains what was previously a[1].
// The same goes for all the other values in a, except for the last, which is set to 0
In another embodiment, the section of the pseudocode between "case p=release packet" and "end if" is usefully modified to the following:
case p = release packet
c = find_cell (p(dt))
if countarray[c] > p(u) then
countarray [c] −= p(u)
lastsum −= p(u)
lastsum −= countarray[c]
countarray[c] = 0
end if
if c = currentcell and rfcount >= p(u) then
rfcount −= p(u)
newsum −= p(u)
else if c = currentcell then
newsum −= rfcount
rfcount = 0
end if
end if
Many other modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teaching. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the disclosed concept, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as has been specifically described.

The devil in the details: Non-convexities in ecosystem service provision
Standard economic theory is built on key assumptions regarding concavity and convexity, particular with respect to the production possibility frontier. Non-convexity is readily demonstrated using a two species conventional model. Now that ecosystem services are growing in prominence it is important to confirm that typical natural resource production relations obey these conditions. If not, innocently prescribing price or allocation policies can lead to a minimum rather than a maximum or to wrong equilibrium solutions in general. This is a particular danger in decentralized pricing systems.

Ducks open up big lead, hang on late to down AvsJan 23, 2012 - 4:29 AM
Ryan Getzlaf had a goal and an assist for the Ducks, who have won five in a row for the first time since a six-game streak from November 3-12 of last season.
"I'm happy about the win, even though it wasn't our best game and it wasn't pretty," Hiller said. "We found a way. We'll take those two points. Everybody knows we can play better and have to if we want to win on Tuesday."
Ryan O'Reilly and Milan Hejduk lit the lamp for the Avalanche, who had a two- game winning streak snapped. Jean-Sebastien Giguere made just 15 saves in defeat.
Ryan put the Ducks ahead 1-0 on a short-handed goal at the 2:49 mark of the first period. Ryan stole the puck at center ice and went in on a breakaway, beating Giguere with a wrister.
Hiller made 15 saves in the first and 13 in the second.
The Ducks scored on the power play just 20 seconds into the third. Teemu Selanne made his way around the net, and instead of trying a wraparound, slid a pass to Getzlaf for an easy tip-in.
Ryan scored on another breakaway at the 3:56 mark to give Anaheim a 3-0 lead.
Colorado scored two late goals to make things interesting. First, O'Reilly capitalized off a turnover in front of Hiller with 5:09 remaining.
Hejduk put home a rebound on the power play with 3:32 left to make it a 3-2 contest.
Hiller made 15 saves in the final period to secure the victory.
"I feel that it's a game we should have at least had a point," Giguere said. "I think on the road, outshooting the other team like that, I thought we were the better team for the most part."
Game Notes
The Ducks have taken 12 of 14 and 16 of the last 19 meetings in this series...Anaheim has registered points in nine straight contests (8-0-1)...The Ducks have won six straight games at home, the second-longest current streak in the NHL (Detroit has 16 straight wins at home). The six-game streak is Anaheim's longest at home since a franchise-record 11-game streak from December 8, 2009-February 10, 2010.

"Lack of basic care in Leeds"
About: St James's University Hospital / Older people's healthcare St James's University Hospital Older people's healthcare LS9 7TF
Posted by Concerned User (as ),
My Mum (aged 90 and suffering from severe short-term memory loss and breast cancer) was admitted to SJUH (Chancellor Wing) last year following bouts of severe diarrhoea. She was put on a drip for a couple of days and the improvement was dramatic although she was still very weak and couldn't get out of bed without assistance.
However, she was then moved to Beckett Wing. Although the staff were nice it was obvious that the ward was short-staffed because each mealtime my Mum's meal was left on the table at the side of her bed (where she couldn't reach it) and was collected 'untouched' by the ward assistants. At no time did anyone make a note that my Mum wasn't eating or drinking.
My family and I went in daily and managed to help her eat and, more importantly, drink. She then developed a chest infection and it wasn't until I got bolshy and asked what the hospital policy was on treating elderly patients, that she had any treatment - she was put on a nebuliser in the middle of the night - emergency treatment which should not have been necessary had the infection been treated immediately instead of being left for five days.
At one point, a relative visited and then rang me and said "What have they done to her?". It was all very distressing and we were pleased to be able to get my Mum into a wonderful Nursing Home where she died a month later.
Response from Patient and Public Involvement Lead, Leeds PCT 8 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to share your story with us. I was sorry to hear about the loss of your mother and also very sorry to hear about the experience your mother had whilst she was in hospital.
But I am pleased to hear that your mum was well looked after by the staff in the nursing home.
I shall pass your comments onto the Patient Relations Manager at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.
Thank you once again for sharing your comments with us.

Target: New York Attorney General, Eric T. Schneiderman
Goal: Commend the Attorney General for his animal rights activism
New York State's Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman has been an advocate for animal rights. Schneiderman's office recently arrested the owners of an auction house that was responsible for selling two footstools that had been made from endangered elephants. He also was responsible for successfully reaching a civil settlement with Puppies Puppies Puppies, a pet store in Yonkers. The pet store was accused of selling sick puppies that were kept under unsafe and inhumane conditions and had agreed to pay a $20,000 fine. Now, Schneiderman has announced that he will continue to fight for animal rights and has called for an animal protection initiative. Schneiderman's work and continued perseverance in protecting New York pets might be commended.
Schneiderman's latest initiative focuses on two main goals, which are to crack down on puppy mills and shut down the state's dogfighting rings. Schneiderman believes that these two leading causes of animal abuse can potentially lead to a life of larger crime. For example, dogfighting has often been linked to gang activity within the state and even outside of the state. Gang activity can lead to several crimes as well, such as illegal drugs and weaponry. Therefore, the attorney general's office believes that this new initiative could help protect the community. Schneiderman's decision to protect pets, a topic that most politicians ignore, will be hard due to the lack of regulation. But it is a task that he will undertake.
"There is still a huge amount of unmet need in terms of vigorous enforcement of the laws and investigations when needed," the vice president of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Stacy Wolf, said to The New York Times.
Schneiderman hopes that his office can be successful in monitoring where pet stores and breeders get their dogs. Pet stores often source from puppy mills, which are operations that continuously breed dogs in horrid conditions. The puppies from these operations have a higher chance of getting illnesses since they are kept in unsanitary conditions and often never get medical check ups. Furthermore, if the office could monitor breeders as well, it would protect consumers who are willing to put a lot of money for a specific purebred dog.
Even though the initiative is still new, Schneiderman's efforts must be praised. Fixing any problem is difficult, and the fact that Schneiderman is focusing on animal rights, which is not a very popular topic among politicians, is admirable.
Dear Eric T. Schneiderman,
As the Attorney General of New York state, your work on animal rights and pet protection has been highly admirable. Oftentimes, politicians do not focus on the small but very important issue of animal abuse. Even though people can be arrested and sent to jail for hurting animals, certain operations, such as puppy mills, have still been able to flourish due to the lack of regulations. The office's latest initiative, which aims to stop puppy mills and dogfighting, is a huge step in protecting animals.
Puppy mills and dogfighting are two of the largest leading causes of animal abuse. Both operations treat animals inhumanely and need to be stopped immediately. Although it will be a hard task to monitor puppy stores and dogfighting rings, I commend the Attorney General's office for its new goal in attempting to stop these horrible practices.
Thank you for caring for the welfare of pets.

You want to fill a recent vacancy as fast as possible, and you know money is one of the most effective ways to get someone to sign on the dotted line. A competitive base pay is always an option. But a signing bonus may be just as attractive. In fact, this type of benefit could be a better way to go when internal equity is limited.
Minimize Expenses
Though the out-of-pocket expense may be greater, offering a signing bonus can save you money in the long run. Signing bonuses aren't part of an employee's salary. So when it's time for a merit increase, the adjustment is made off of his base pay, not the compensation package as a whole. For example, let's say you offer a $50,000 base with a $10,000 signing bonus. At review time, you give a 5 percent increase, which works out to an additional $2,500 per year. If the original offer was a $60,000 base, you're looking at a $3,000 bump in pay for that same 5 percent increase. It may only be $500 in this example, but the added expense is compounded year after year.
Remain Competitive
If your company has a set salary range for the vacant position, you could be left with very little room to negotiate a competitive offer. This is problematic when trying to fill highly specialized roles or when competing with other companies for the same pool of candidates. A signing bonus can make up the difference, helping to bring the offer more in line with those of your competitors.
Show Interest
Everyone wants to be wanted, and offering a signing bonus acknowledges an increased interest in that candidate. It sends a message that you'll do anything in your power to secure her talent. It's also an indication of your commitment to that person as a potential employee. By showing someone how much you really want her to work for you, you could end up tipping the scale in your favor.
Account for Losses
When someone leaves a job, especially one he's had for years, he could be walking away from a myriad of benefits -- not only yearly bonuses, but also vacation days, stock options, transportation benefits, parking benefits, phone and other incentives. Some of these perks may not be part of your company's compensation package, and a signing bonus sometimes helps to make up for these losses. The same can also be said for candidates not eligible for an upcoming merit increase, and would then need to wait over a year for your company's annual compensation changes.
Overshadow Detractors
Like job candidates, your company has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. Strengths are nothing to worry about, but you may need to compensate for any potential detractors that accompany employment. Is your company located way out in the suburbs? Are employees required to travel a lot for work? A signing bonus could help to overshadow some of the less desirable characteristics of the job -- although higher pay may do the same, but you're then dealing with an added annual expense.

Poll: Drag and drop feature on a form (especially on polls)Asked by David Seacombe on May 07, 2013 at 09:51 AM
I like to look of Jotforms, but can it do more sophisticated polling, such as this drag and drop example:
http://www.infoq.com/research/top-javascript-mvc-frameworks ?
If so, I'd be keen to try out Jotforms. If not, please let me know if it is on your roadmap.
Thanks, David
Unfortunately, such option is not available as of the moment . However, I will try to submit this to our feature request list and hopefully, our developers can integrate this in the future.
Also, if you can explain further on what you want to achieve when you mentioned "sophisticated polling" that would be great for us to know or to further check if we have such feature or maybe implement it in the future.
Let us know if there's anything else that you require assistance with.
Thank you.

text: The stocks of Amazon, Netflix and Tesla are animal-spirited love affairs that defy traditional metrics. Lots of people were disappointed when Amazon reported last week, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out why. The company is simply continuing its build-out as the world's largest retail store. It has been going down that path since its inception, and it is expensive to dominate the world. So the quarter was status-quo. If you liked it before, you should like it after even as it has become hideously overvalued by any metric. Netflix? You can actually make an earnings case for it if you go out far enough -- certainly much further than this year's earnings estimates, against which the stock sells at at P/E ratio of 228. Again, though, if you like Netflix and you think the world will like it, too, you can see why the stock might be cheap if everything works out, internationally. You obviously think it will because, alas, it works for you. Darn the valuation -- full speed ahead. Tesla is, in many ways, the toughest. Unlike Amazon and Netflix, whose products are widely used, only a handful of people have test driven a Tesla auto, let alone bought one. Yet the company is valued at $16 billion, largely because its product is fascinating, it works well -- at least for now -- and it is highly rated by Consumer Reports. The company was able to show a level of profitability that all of the rigorous analysts out there have said is chimerical, yet this was enough to allow many of Tesla's boosters to push the stock hard. BMW rolled out a rival car Monday, but that only made the Tesla stalwarts more bullish -- because the comparisons, alas, did find the BMW version wanting. Still, Tesla has a lot in common with Amazon and Netflix. The bulls foresee mass adoption of a car that will put all other automakers to shame. As long as Tesla has access to the capital markets and can tap them if it needs to do so, I don't see how this cult will run out of gas, or battery life, at least for now. Now, if you ask me whether I like Amazon, Netflix and Tesla, I say: "Absolutely." They are the best three firms in their respective classes. In fact, they are in classes by themselves. But if you ask me whether I would buy their stocks with my Action Alerts PLUS charitable trust, the answer is, "No." That's because these companies simply don't meet the criteria that has saved me so often in the past, even as it cuts off the potential future upside. At the time of publication, Action Alerts PLUS, which Cramer co-manages as a charitable trust, had no positions in the securities mentioned.

Port-of-Spain, May 24 (Reuters): Some fine stroke play by Adam Gilchrist (84) and Michael Clarke (55 not out) helped Australia to an impressive 286 for five in the fourth one-day international against West Indies on Saturday.
Two catches and a wicket for Ryan Hurley on his international debut were not enough to constrain the visitors, who lead 3-0 in the seven-match series.
Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden built a solid 78-run opening stand for the world champions, overcoming a fast and accurate opening spell from Mervyn Dillon and Corey Collymore.
Hayden (44) hit five boundaries before pulling a Vasbert Drakes delivery to mid-wicket where the bowlers nephew Hurley took the catch.
Ricky Ponting settled swiftly to the job of adding runs against an improved West Indies attack.
He signalled the move to accelerate the run rate with a big six over mid-wicket but after reaching 38 misjudged the pace of a Ricardo Powell delivery and gave Hurley his second catch on the boundary line.
Powell was given only one over despite taking one wicket for two runs.
Gilchrist began scoring runs freely, and chose Hurley as his victim. He smashed the off-spinner for a leg-side boundary and a leg-side six in the 36th over.
But Hurley exacted revenge two overs later by clean bowling the left-hander to deny him century.
Collymore struggled to maintain his line and length, but clean bowled Andy Symonds (24) when the right-hander attempted to hit across the ball.
Clarke pressed his case for regular selection with another fine innings. He hit two consecutive fours off Collymore then went one better with a four and a six off the same bowler two overs later.
Australia won the toss and elected to bat on a Trinidad morning that threatened rain but delivered only an innocuous spell of drizzle.
The West Indies missed three good chances in the outfield, including a golden opportunity from a pulled shot by Clarke, put down by the normally reliable Powell.
Drakes dismissed Michael Bevan (21) with the final ball of the innings as captain Brian Lara took a fine catch in the covers.

Twin Tail Shoots Infantilising Photographer: by Kan Furuya
….I'm rather having my cake and eating it by posting a "twin tail" image and then criticising the photographer for the infantilism of the concept. The first thing to make clear is that the model's an adult, and she's part of the sterling Japanese tradition of older models stealing legitimate subculture styles from their younger sisters – even tho' it has to be said that twin tails are prevalent even on Japanese university campuses…. 178 more words

So Pakistan FINALLY got rid of the so-called democratic rule led by the so-called Pakistan People's Party on Saturday. Yes, it is true. Neither PPP's government was a people's party nor was it practicing true democracy.
A lot more people were behind the inefficient government that has left us with even lesser food, electricity, money, livelihood, and above all security. We now have more poverty, power outages, fragile economy, unemployment and above all sectarian and ethnic violence. The worst part of it all is that whenever PPP (short for Pakistan People's Party) was approached with complaints for all the previously mentioned problems, the answer was pretty much the same, always:
The dictator [Pervez Musharraf] and his policies are responsible for the sorry state of the country. We paid with blood. Democracy is the best revenge. Long Live Bhutto!' (PPP, 2007)
'Democracy is the best revenge. We paid with blood. The dictator [Pervez Musharraf] and his policies are responsible for the sorry state of the country. Long Live Bhutto!' (PPP, Today)
The idea of democracy made the (less) miserable common man of Pakistan, under Musharraf's regime, feel good and hopeful. The people who helped PPP win the elections with overwhelming votes thought that the "democratic" party would do great things. And they did - terrible, but great. Democracy is the best revenge. Indeed it is. You can make people miserable with democracy and make them suffer. It has been tried and tested on us.
There is a whole lot of statistics and officialdata available to provide proof of the fact that Pakistan People's Party was a successful government. And there is an equal (probably a bit more) amount of official data present to confirm that it was an unsuccessful one. Confusing, isn't it? But it is true and we Pakistanis have been living with this confusion for the past five years. For this very reason there will be a lot less facts and figures in this piece. There will be a lot more perspectives and real-life, first-hand experiences.
The Suffering:
Suffering cannot be put into statistics. The common man cannot express his misery into percentages and when someone, especially from the government, tries to justify and object to his misery using official data and stuff, they get mad. They have the right to get mad.
Whether the level of poverty or education increased or decreased is debatable. But one only cares about these two when one is safe, secure and alive. The issue of security perhaps remains the biggest and has had the most impact on the lives of the common people of Pakistan.
Rehman Malik and Security:
Former Interior Minister, (most ironically) Intelligence Officer and aspiring astrologist Rehman Malik said in his fare-thee-not-so- well statement: "When I became Interior Minister the main challenge was that of terrorism. However, we have succeeded in breaking the backbone of terrorists." All Pakistanis would, without any doubt, agree that this is a joke. And a big fat lie.
When Malik became Interior Minister the only challenge was the security of the citizens. Now that he has left, there is no biggest challenge but there are challenges such as ethnic target killings, sectarian/ minority violence and Talibanisation in Pakistan. The only thing Malik and his party has succeeded in breaking, is the trust of the common man in PPP and democratic rule.
Suffering Continues…
Surely Mr. Malik was successful in predicting the bomb blasts and attacks, but he actually did nothing, absolutely nothing to, if not stop, prevent them. He banned pillion riding for the sake of security. People who were already not able to get on heavily loaded buses due to the non-availability of CNG (compressed natural gas) and petrol, couldn't even get on a motorbike with a friend to reach work on time. Terrorists and suicide bombers and target killers, by the way, never really got affected by the ban. Their work is not restricted to what kind of vehicle they use.
Riots. Blasts, Murder, Mayhem:
The Quetta and Karachi blasts, the 2009 Gojra riots and the recent Joseph Colony incident are enough proof of the fact that this government was anything but interested in the prosperity of Pakistan. The sort of indifference showed by the government officials was extra ordinary. Minorities no longer feel a part of this country. And the premieres of this country are either out on "official" tours, building expensive castles in Lahore or busy dealing with criminal charges in the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
People die every single day. On a regular day in Karachi, ten to fifteen people are kidnapped for ransom or shot in an hour. This is grave but only for the people who suffer and not for the corrupt politicians with dual nationalities.
TUQ Arrives; Then Leaves:
In the first two years, the people waited that things would take time to get better. They didn't. The wait of two years went up to a wait of three, then four and the people of Pakistan are still waiting (in vain). When Tahir-ul-Qadristepped in, there was a considerable amount of people who thought they could oust Zardari like the Egyptians and find a leader in him. But they were wrong, as usual.
What Now?
After TuQ's Islamabad long march and the almost non-existent state of security, Pakistan is now divided into three sections. People who wish to run away and never come back, some who still have hope and die every day for it and those who simply don't care because they have lost their sense of judgment.
Betrayed by democracy, bitten by dictatorship, the citizens of Pakistan have now come to a point where they have no clue what the future holds for them. Nevertheless, congratulations to the people of Pakistan on the end of the democratic tenure and God Speed.

Ute Lemper's collab. w/ Paulo Coelho 'The 9 Secrets' Out Today
Grammy-nominated, internationally acclaimed artist Ute Lemper's collaboration with renowned best-selling author Paulo Coelho, The 9 Secrets, is set for release on February 12 via Steinway & Sons. The album presents a song cycle composed and sung by Lemper, set to words by Coelho from his 2012 novel Manuscript Found in Accra, the thematic content of which may be encapsulated in the lines, "After lying undiscovered for over 700 years, a manuscript holding the answers to questions about life and humanity is unearthed. / Simple questions about our lives torn between happiness and sorrow and defined by hope, intelligence and desire to love as much as the capacity to hate and destroy." Coelho himself is featured on two tracks-see below for track list. In celebration, Lemper will perform the piece in its entirety in a fully staged production at Symphony Space in New York City on May 13, tickets and information here.

Monk's nephew remanded in further custody in relation to Byrne murder
PATRICK Hutch Jnr, who has been charged with the murder of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel in Dublin, has been further remanded in custody.
David Byrne (34) who was from Crumlin in Dublin was shot dead during a boxing weigh-in at the popular hotel on Feb. 5 by a gang of heavily armed raiders. Last month Patrick Hutch (24) of Champions Avenue, Dublin 1, was charged with the murder of David Byrne and was remanded in custody.
Mr Hutch who "made no reply to the charge" faced his third appearance on Wednesday (June 22) at Cloverhill District Court.
He was further remanded in custody by Judge Victor Blake and will appear again in court on July 20. It had been indicated at an earlier hearing that he could face a non-jury trial in the Special Criminal Court.
Det Sergeant Mick Mulligan has told Judge Victor Blake that the Director of Public Prosecutions has directed trial on indictment and is deciding whether to issue a certificate for the Special Criminal Court.
A book of evidence has yet to be prepared.
Due to the nature of the charge the district court cannot grant bail meaning Mr Hutch, who has not yet indicated how he will plead, will have to bring an application to the High Court to get released pending trial.
Patrick Hutch Jnr is a nephew of Gerry "the Monk" Hutch and also a cousin of Gareth Hutch (35) who was shot dead outside his home in north inner city Dublin on the morning of May 24 and Gary Hutch who was killed in Spain last year
David Byrne, who was from Crumlin, was blasted when gunmen arrived at the Regency Hotel dressed as a Garda SWAT team. Daniel Kinahan, who runs the MGM boxing promotion, was also at the weigh-in but avoided injury.
It followed the murder of Dublin criminal Gary Hutch who was shot dead in Spain last year and has sparked a wave of killings: Eddie Hutch (58), Noel "Kingsize" Duggan and dissident Michael Barr.
Homeless man Martin O'Rourke was also was shot dead in Dublin city-centre last month in what is believed to have been a case of mistaken identity and on Tuesday Gareth Hutch was shot dead as he was getting into his car outside Avondale House flats on North Cumberland Street.

Two die in Homer house fire
An early-morning house fire in Homer (IL) Thursday killed two men and seriously injured a husband and wife.
The victims are identified as 25-year-old Ricky Tester and 41-year-old Zach Highfill.
Champaign County Coroner Duane Northrup said they were living in the single-story house at 307 W. Crittenden Street with Tester's younger brother and his wife.
Homer Fire Chief Don Happ reported the call for help came about 3:25 am. Tim Hester and his wife, Aubrey (Tester) ran across the street to a neighbor's house, waking them to call for help.
Fire Chief Happ lives a few houses away. He was first on the scene. Some 30 firefighters from Homer, Ogden-Royal, St. Joseph-Stanton and Sidney, were on the scene.
Firefighters had the blaze under control in about an hour.
Ricky Tester was found near the front door. Mr. Highfill was found in the bathtub.
Initial thoughts are that the tragedy may have been caused by fire left burning in the fireplace. Happ said the Illinois State Fire Marshal's office is investigating.
Chief Happ said it's unknown if they had a smoke detector.
The chief said one dog died in the fire and two others survived.
