If we have a negative mindset, we'll attract negative things into our lives.

text: I have had my incredible since launch. After reading these forums I realized that I may have an Incredible with call quality issues. I upgraded from an LG enV 2, and when that phone had better voice quality than my brand new incredible i realized something wasnt right. My question is, should be the voice quality be worse than the old env2 or is it just mine? If there is anyone else who owned an env2 who could give me their input that would be great! Thanks!

Euthanasia is the procedure of killing patients who have lost hope of getting better.

The right to commit suicide, and that euthanasia is not prohibited.
The unbearable pain that people who don't get the proper treatment suffer from.
The fact that people should not be forced to stay alive
The amount of money that is spent on patients.
It is mostly referred to as mercy killing or assisted suicide.
The patient thinks that he/she has the right to die, which puts so much pressure on the patient.
The treatment is denied to deserving patients.
The patient also loses self-worth, which leads to depression and suicide
Effects On The Family
Having to watch a loved one's illness get worse is very heartbreaking to the family members.
The struggles of withdrawing, withholding, or continuing medical treatment.
The resulting bitterness may split a family apart, sometimes forever.
Effects On The Society
The hospice and palliative consideration in the society
The trust between a doctor and his/her patient
The obligation to kill
Sets the patient free
Benefits the financial and emotional conditions of the family
Benefits cost regulation
Lessens monetary load
More focus on other patients
When euthanasia happens at the request of a patient
Voluntary Euthanasia
Non-voluntary Euthanasia
Is the point at which an individual is not able to give his or her agreement to the method
Involuntary Euthanasia
When euthanasia is carried out against the patient's will.
The History Of Euthanasia
Procedural Qualifications
When something is done to end the patient's life
When something is not done that would have saved the patient's life
Euthanasia comes from the Greek words, Eu (good) and Thanatosis (death) and it signifies "Good Death".
In Mesopotamia
In The Jewish Society
In Sparta
In ancient Greece
Pythagoras And His Understudies
In ancient Israel
In The Hippocratic Oath
In antiquated Rome
In the Middle Ages in Europe

In the Chesapeake, gunboat flotilla's first foray into battle in June of 1814, where a British schooner and enemy barges were discovered near the mouth of the Potomac River. Shortly after engaging them, the weather became "squally" and the winds changed against them. The greatest concern was the HMS 'Dragon', a British ship-of-the-line sighted to the south and heading towards them. As depicted in this painting, Commander Joshua Barney ordered his squadron to turn North towards the Patuxent River while facing British cannon and rocket fire. His flagship, the 'SCORPION' was later sunk to avoid capture.
This painting was recently exhibited with 5 other nationally renowned marine artists� works at the N.M.H.S. Awards Dinner held at the National Press Club in Washington, DC.

Police are hunting for a teenager after his puppy had to be put down when he failed to get treatment for its two broken hips.
Jamie Andrew should have appeared for the second time to be sentenced at Blackpool Magistrates' Court, but he failed to turn up for the hearing.
Magistrates issued a warrant without bail for his arrest.
Andrew, 19, of Brun Grove, Marton, Blackpool, was found guilty of causing unnecessary suffering to an Akita puppy after a trial in his absence.
Andrew said previously he did not know how the injuries happened and he thought if he left it the puppy might get better.

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has designed a flagship model that also doubles as a mobile conference room. Ever since the 1950s with the Samba bus, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has been recognized by businesses for its excellent lineup of people carriers. It's now getting praises for the Caravelle, which embodies its commitment to quality, image, durability and space.
The Caravelle Business is designed to provide business travellers and VIPs with their latest communication requirements. This new flagship model was intended to be a highly luxurious vehicle that comes with a mobile conference room with the most advanced technology such as the Wi-Fi internet connectivity and Bluetooth.
The Caravelle Business is more spacious and convenient than majority of luxury limousines because it is a six-seater (which include the driver) and it has a sociable rear lounge area with four individual seats and a table that could be adjusted. Similar to other Caravelles, the Business variant's two middle seats could swivel to face forwards or backwards. The Business also has the best quality Nappa leather upholstery while instead of the rear bench seat, it now has a posh twin seat console that could be adjusted.
It could also be heated with an integrated fridge between the seats. The Caravelle Business has an interior that is improved with the use of stylish burr wood inserts in the rear passenger compartment. It also comes with curtain airbags for increased safety.
For the convenience of the driver, the following features were placed: cruise control, satellite navigation with 6.5 in colour screen and 30GBhard drive, a leather multi-function steering wheel, lane change assist to provide warnings of vehicles in the driver's blind spot, and a programmable heater to guarantee that the interior's temperature is always comfortable. The car has a second battery with cut-off relay to make sure that the rear seating area could be independently powered.
The Caravelle Business may be discreet but it's still stylish with privacy glass, a new set of 17in alloy wheels, darkened rear light clusters, electrically folding door mirrors and a laminated windscreen for enhanced noise damping. In addition, it features front and rear parking sensors with reversing camera and Xenon headlights with automatic activation, LED daytime running lights, headlamp washer system and heated front washer jets.
Rear passengers will be able to gain access as well as exit the car easily due to its electric sliding side doors. It offers an impressive performance from its 2.0-litre 180PS bi-turbo TDI engine, the brand's most powerful engine yet. The Caravelle Business delivers 400 Nm of torque from 1,500 rpm, and features DSG transmission as standard.
As a result, the Caravelle Business offers superior handling but is frugal, offering 34.9 mpg on the combined cycle and getting Euro5 emissions of 214 g/km. A variety of competitive finance options are available so that consumers would be able to direct their business expenses, maintenance and service plans well. The Caravelle Business is now on sale with retail prices starting from £53,856 (plus VAT), or £56,069 (plus VAT) with 4MOTION transmission.

Hello, crafty friends! I decided to make use of my Simon Says Stampe October 2016 card kit again and used some of the supplies. It was a last minute thing to make this card since I have been dealing with a cold again. Seriously, I am so done with colds and coughs. If only it is as easy as that. :-D Anyway, I used this week's sketch from Freshly Made Sketches to put this card together.
After gluing all the pattern paper and cardstock onto the card base following the sketch, I stamped the sentiment on a thin strip of cardstock and adhered it to the card. Then I stamped the squirrel and fussy cut it out before adhering it.
I finished the card with one of the acorns from Little B.
Thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting!

From Koh Phi Phi to Ao Nang
Ao Nang Travel Blog› entry 21 of 32 › view all entries
April 21st, 2009 – by: jaeWALK
On my way back to the hotel, i got some breakfast from the market, which i ate alongside the hotel breakfast buffet. After that we had to go back up to get stuff for the beach. Man it's tiring going up and down our room at Phitarom Phi Phi.
We took our early morning dip at Loh Dalum. It was only me and Joseph there. Too early! but it was fun. The water was cool and it was actually really nice to have the otherwise busy beach all to ourselves.
Anyway, we just spent the rest of our stay waiting for our ferry to Ao Nang. The ride to Ao Nang was spectacular and it was fast! i think it was around 1 hour and 45 minutes. Along the way we got to see Railay Beach. That's the closest we can get to it. We didn't include it in our plans.
Krabi Tipa Resort was quite surprising. I didn't expect it to be quite nice. Our bungalow was nice too! I didn't waste anytime, so while Joseph went pool side, I went out and explored the seaside town a bit. I really like it there. It's a very cute town.
In the evening we had dinner at Banana Leaf. They have the best seafood curry I swear! We also ran into some Malaysians who were with us the day before during the sunset tour of koh phi phi leh.

This past weekend I was so lucky to work on a cake for a co-ed baby shower and was especially excited about the cake design. The chevron design looks like something that would be very hard without a cookie cutter, but the method I used made it super easy.
I drew my chevron pattern on the back of parchment paper the length of the circumference and covered the other side with shortening. I then created 1.5" pieces and placed them on the parchment paper using my pattern as a guide. Once I was done with the entire pattern I put a little water on it and pressed the parchment paper all around the cake. The chevron stuck right to the cake in the perfect arrangement I had on my parchment paper!
This method is called the transfer method and is such an easy way to make your intricate designs be almost perfect! Thanks to the Mom-to-be for giving me such a great design!

Africa is gaining increasing significance as one of the world's key emerging markets. With accelerated economic growth across a number of countries and sectors, high returns on investment, and progress in the areas of political reform, macroeconomic stability, and social development, it is becoming an attractive region for international investment.
Projections indicate that Africa's growth is set to continue strongly over the coming years. Coupled with a regulatory boom as Governments across the continent look to promote foreign investment by adapting their legal systems to better suit the changing realities of the African investment environment, investing in Africa has never been so appealing. However, whilst the benefits and opportunities of investing in Africa are profound, the legal and business landscapes can be challenging.
Hogan Lovells' team includes lawyers from across the continent (including Nigeria, Gambia, Libya, Kenya, Egypt and Sierra Leone), with many dual-qualified. Our lawyers bring an understanding of the culture, allowing us to provide our clients with local insight and knowledge. Our experience and expertise means that we have a comprehensive overview of the legal systems in Africa, and are therefore perfectly placed to help our clients anticipate and respond to the complex business and legal issues faced when operating, or looking to invest in Africa.
To get in touch with a member of our Africa team you can either contact a Hogan Lovells lawyer in your relevant jurisdiction, or you can email us now at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Geriatric Interdisciplinary Team Training Program (GITT)
Patients with multiple conditions rely on health care professionals from a variety of disciplines. This is often the case with elderly patients. Studies show that complex patients manage better when their doctors, nurses, gerontologists, pharmacists–every health professional involved in their care (including the patient!)–work together as a team to develop a smart plan of care. The goal of the GITT Program is to help promote the development of effective patient management across multiple disciplines.

Through the creation, testing, and nationwide dissemination of a series of primary care-focused online learning modules, the PCOA program will create a systematic approach to embed in primary care settings patient- and family-centered and evidence-based care that is responsive to the particular needs of older adults.
The project is managed by the Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing (HIGN) at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing, in coordination with the Consortium of New York Geriatric Education Centers (CNYGEC) at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM) and the National Nurses Care Consortium (NNCC). This project is funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration. The completed modules provide 6.25 continuing education contact hours.

Elder Mistreatment Training Manual and Protocol
Health professionals and allied health workers need to know and recognize the clinical indicators of elder mistreatment (EM) and need to know what actions to take if they suspect EM. However, many healthcare professionals are not aware that EM even exists, and few are actually trained to screen and assess for EM. Understanding cultural competency is essential to any EM training. Different cultures perceive aging and care-giving differently and this has important implications for the way EM is viewed, assessed and treated. This training manual will address these issues.

Stargate Finally Closed?
January 24, 2006 - The troubled development history of Stargate SG-1: The Alliance appears to have come to an end with a posting in the game's official forum stating that the game has been canclled.
Stargate SG-1 Not Cancelled After All?
August 12, 2005 - In what is quickly becoming a very nasty dispute, Australian developer Perception fired back at Austrian publisher JoWood Productions for statements made last week regarding the status of Stargate SG-1: The Alliance.
Stargate SG-1 Development Halted
August 5, 2005 - In what will surely come as a disappointing shock to fans, JoWood Productions announced today a halt to the development of Stargate SG-1: The Alliance which was slated to be released this October.
E3 2005: Stargate
May 20, 2005 - Alright, so Stargate SG-1: The Alliance on PS2 was nowhere to be seen at this year's E3 and Stargate on Xbox was so totally and completely broken that previewing it in any way shape or form would be a disservice to everyone...in the entire universe. I still got to play a relatively solid build of the PC version, and it was alright. So that's got to count for something, eh?
Pre-E3 2005: JoWooD Reveals Lineup
April 14, 2005 - JoWooD Productions today announced its official lineup of titles to be shown at this year's E3, running May 18-20 in Los Angeles.
The Big E3 List: 2005 Edition
April 11, 2005 - In preparation for the show and to let you know that we care (and we really do... the flowers are on the way, we promise), we've put together a fat list of all the "official" titles being shown at E3 in Los Angeles from May 12-14. BUT WAIT! Before you write in with such enlightening observations as "u f3rg0t triPl3 so=0p3r sup3r bLu3 p0k3m0N!11!!!!1!!1!," you should realize that this list doesn't necessarily represent everything that a particular company will be showing at E3, just what they've confirmed that they'll be showing so far. There are sure to be plenty of surprise titles on the floor that publishers aren't ready to make public until closer to the opening of the show. Luckily we'll be updating this list every single day with any new confirmed titles that we learn of, so all you'll have to do is check back here for the most up-to-date list of E3 titles. Those of you who are camping out by your computers can print out this list and highlight the games you're excited about and wait until May to read the latest as we poke, prod, and gussie-up to every damn game we can get our hands on at the show. Or just order a few dozen pizzas and read everything we post at E3. Lord knows we won't have time to! Remember that this is just a small sample of the games that will be at the show.

The success of an autobiography can be measured by many different aspects. Some works are of merit for entertainment purposes alone. Many Hollywood celebrities find an audience for their life's story due to their willingness to share closely held secrets and peculiarities. We are drawn in because of the salacious promise of a glimpse into a life more glamorous or unusual than our own. There are autobiographies that are written in order to record a person's contributions to fields such as science or politics. Still, more find their way into publication in order to tell an inspiring story, to uplift, to stand as an example to humanity of the limitless potential of the human spirit and our ability to overcome adversity.
Clifford Whittingham Beers' A Mind that Found Itself - An Autobiography, fulfills all of these goals and yet achieves a much higher purpose. Beers records his personal journey to a place that few will ever visit, and far fewer will ever return. Beers' personal, detailed account of his descent into insanity, his two-year journey within public and private institutions, and his unusual recovery and mission afterward elevates this to much more than an autobiography. Beers' story invites us to see both the enormous shortcomings of the mental institutions of his time, but also the inner workings of his mind as he lost his grip on reality. Early in his institutional experiences, he vows to explore every ward and record every injustice.
Despite Beers' own acknowledgement of his loss of reason, he maintained enough direction to willfully contrive situations that would get him committed to wards with more advanced levels of security for patients deemed violent. He did this deliberately, for the purpose of his research. This autobiography, published when Beers emerged from his institutional life, led to a revolution in an understanding of insanity and the way the insane are treated in the United States.

"A compelling narrative of mental illness"
The true story of the author's psychosis and recovery over a century ago. The real thrust is the injustices he faced and perhaps exist even today. The summary at the beginning tells the story BUT do not get put off as the narrative is far more compelling

Officials said hundreds of makeshift houses at the Ban Mae Surin camp have been destroyed by the blaze that started on the evening before being extinguished two hours later. Preliminary investigations suggested the fire may have been triggered by a cooking accident, but further investigation into the cause is still underway, according to local media reports. The camp, near the Thai-Myanmar border, is home to thousands of ethnic Karen refugees who escaped the fighting between Karen rebels and Myanmar military troops. Despite a cease-fire signed last year, more than 100,000 Burmese refugees from the conflict areas near the border are still living in camps in northern Thailand.

TESCO has issued another annual profits warning as the price war raging in the UK's supermarket aisles continues.
The store says it will cut its dividend for shareholders by 75 per cent and has pledged an annual cut of £400m on capital spending.
Former Unilever executive Dave Lewis will now start as chief executive on Monday, September 1, a month earlier than planned.
Loading article content
Mr Lewis takes over from Philip Clarke, whose departure from the retailer was brought forward.
His strategy was based around a store refresh programme, but capital expenditure has now been reduced to no more than £2.1bn this year, a drop of £600m on the previous financial period.
Tesco chairman Sir Richard Broadbent said: "The board's priority is to improve the performance of the group.
"We have taken prudent and decisive action solely to that end."
Tesco's trading profits for the year to April are now likely to be between £2.4bn and £2.5bn, well below forecasts of about £3bn and down on the £3.3bn reported the previous year.
Earlier this week, industry till-roll figures from Kantar Worldpanel showed Tesco sales were four per cent lower in the 12 weeks to August 17 as its market share slid to 28.8 per cent from 30.2 per cent a year earlier.

text: Everbodies advice is real good, I'd stay away from a top name suit and spend the money somewhere else, like alterations. A "cheap" $500 suit that has been truly custom tailored to you will look light years better than a $2k Armani off the rack with the standard alterations. I'd also spend the money on the other parts of a suit, if you buy a fairly conservative suit you can dress it up quite well in other ways. For instance I bought a regular $500 suit, had a tailor go over it with a fine tooth comb, I have a mix of about 7 shirts, about double that in ties, a few pairs of shoes, etc. I still follow the above today since I rarely need to wear a suit, but I need to have one for those occasions. And what I may wear to a funeral probably doesn't work for a wedding which neither work for a business function. Andrew

 I am interested in learning Perl. I have been a light Perl user for a long while but it's finally proving itself very useful for my day job (which consists of being a network admin and sys admin for systems which support/monitor the network).

 Sounds to me like you're already on the path to Enlightenment.

 Rather than add to the comments folks have already made let me just say that there is no better teacher than experience. To learn a skill you need to practice the skill. If you've got a handle on the basics then the more esoteric skills will come with time and practice. If you run into a brick wall then post here in [SOPW|Seekers of Perl Wisdom], show us your code and you'll get a bunch of suggestions on how to get past it. Wear your thick skin though because occasionally you'll get a reply from a troll.

 If you're planning on using Perl to mine data from network devices (speaking from experience here) spend some effort learning regexes. Learn the ins and outs of [cpan://Net::Telnet] if that's how you are accessing the network devices.

 One strategy as well is to become well versed in creating modules. Since report writing against network data is pretty much the same broken record over and over again this is a very good application for creating "write once; use many" types of modules.

Have fun.. Learning Perl is not a destination. It's a journey. I've been writing in Perl since 1989 or so and I'm still learning.

Regarding the Dec. 6 letter, "Boycott Israel over settlements":
Boycotting Israeli products might be a little difficult, but for those of you who think this is a good idea, allow me to point out some things you might want to avoid using or buying: your flash drive, that Intel chip in your computer, the cellphone camera, instant messaging, the platform that Google is built on, a drug that treats multiple sclerosis, the smallest camera in the world (which is used in medical operating procedures), a multitude of defensive military systems including the Iron Dome, numerous agricultural innovations including perfecting drip irrigation, and that is just to name a few.
So if you decide to boycott Israeli products, leave your cellphone at home, because that technology also was developed by Israel.
Egg Harbor City
Israel generous
to other nations
Regarding the Dec. 6 letter, "Boycott Israel over settlements":
One of our favorite Israel-bashing letter writers has just recommended a novel approach to correcting that obstreperous, annoying country - boycott. What a novel idea.
I am sure that numerous countries would be willing to punish Israel, including, to mention a partial list, those that have benefited from Israel's compassionate aid programs in natural and man-made disasters. These include Kenya, Haiti, Sri Lanka, the Phillipines and Myanmar. And immigrants from Africa and Russia, and who knows where else, should refuse to emigrate to that nasty Israel, which absorbs far more than its share of people from other countries. Gazans should certainly refuse Israel's free medical care for procedures and care of difficult conditions that can't be provided anywhere else in the region.
And I am sure that, as a matter of adherence to his strong beliefs, the writer will also avoid and refuse all devices innovated by Israel (lest it receive royalties) on such things as flight-security methods, medication-administering technology to eliminate drug errors, the "pillcam" to diagnose gastrointestinal diseases, the heart pump, the cellphone, the Windows operating system, Pentium computer chips, voice mail and solar power technologies.
While we are comparing Israel to former apartheid societies, maybe the letter writer could check out a comparable list of services to humanity provided by South Africa. That task might require the use of a computer at least partially reliant on Israeli inventions, but it could still be done by sifting through old yellowed newspapers. Boycotters everywhere, unite, and enjoy.

Should The European Union Bail Out Its Member Countries?
Since the end of 2009 when fears about Greece's economy mounted and its debt was downgraded, the European Union (E.U.) has faced a big challenge: deciding whether or not it should bail out member countries. Three countries Ireland, Portugal, and Greece, have so far received or are in the process of receiving bailouts. Greece is looking to get a second as it increasingly becomes obvious it wont be able to quickly go back to the capital markets. Some E.U. ministers feel that it is necessary to bail member countries out of crippling debt to "save" the E.U.'s economy, while other E.U. ministers feel that each member country should be responsible for its own debt and not pull other member countries into more economic trouble. Bailouts don't seem to be working. Once one country gets a bailout, the markets begin looking for the next likely candidate creating a line of dominoes. Yet the alternatives are not good options either; letting countries either drop out of the Euro or default on their debt, or else much closer integration.
Please cast your vote after you've read the arguments.
You can also add to the debate by leaving a comment at the end of the page.
Domineo Effect
If Greece, Portugal, Spain, or Ireland default on their government bonds, then it would cause a dominoe effect to sweep across the European Union. Investors would not invest in government bonds of European Union countries with debt, including Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, and thus, these countries who are deemed to be somewhat economic safe would become bankrupt.
Since markets are global, the European debt crisis does not only effect Europe either. The European debt crisis would effect the U.S., a world economic superpower, negatively, because American banks lent Europe $1.5 trillion and Europe buys 1/4 of all American exports [[http://www.newsweek.com/2010/05/24/making-europe-safer.html]].
Not all bailouts are failures. In the early 1990s, Sweden successfully solved its banking crisis by bailing out its banks [[http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2010/05/greek-bailouts-what-are-they-good-for/56499/]].
The experiment of a common currency has failed. The gulf of economic divergence between member states is irreconcilable - eg. Germany V Greece. Bail outs are only 'kicking the can down the road'. The chickens born from all the eggs in the one globalisation basket are coming home to roost. The bond holders need to face up to the risks they took - let the chips fall where they may now so that a real recovery can begin.
It should let them leave the Euro
It was the Euro that has caused these smaller economies to collapse because they can't keep up, and seeing as the illegal bailouts come with surrender of a countries economic control it is only fair that they are allowed back to a non-political currency that works because the Euro is doomed, they are now trying to buy up their own debt.
if they do not then we will see widespread unemployment sweep through these countries (i.e. Greece, Ireland, Portugal and now Spain). This would lead to political instability and riots which could spread into the other European Nations. Also this bailouts have not coe without certain precautions put into place. For example Greece had to promise many economic reforsm especially in their banking system to model it after strong economies such as the Sweden, Norway, and Germany. In addition they must also follow through on a payment plan that would allow them to back all the money borrowed for this bailout by 2016 so using this bailout would not have any future repercussions. In fact not doing the bailouit would weaken and perhaps cause the collapse of the European Union in the coming years.
What do you think?

Totango provides customer success applications for leading SaaS and cloud services companies. Their applications monitor customer behavior and usage to uncover insights that help brands understand which customers need attention and why.
Totango sells to a defined market, and targets specific groups within that market. In a recent case study with RingLead, Totango shared that they were looking for a turnkey way to find and reach niche individuals, as well as move away from the time-consuming task of manually entering these individuals' contact data into Salesforce.
In working with Capture, a sales prospecting tool from RingLead, Totango was able to cut contact data research time from 60 minutes to 60 seconds, a 98% increase in productivity time. Here are their tips to get similar results.
Find contact data quickly and effectively
Capture saved Totango a minimum of five minutes per Salesforce entry, and as much as 60 minutes per day. "Prior to Capture, Totango was often spending as much as an hour obtaining the contact information of key target buyers. Today, Capture has allowed us to gather this information with one click," says Shannon.
Whether you use a paid tool or an advanced search options on your favorite social networks and business sites, make sure to have a process in place to expedite the contact data research time as much as possible.
Go beyond LinkedIn InMail
LinkedIn is a great place to find contact data, but Totango recommends real email addresses and phone numbers of those contacts for outreach. "LinkedIn InMail isn't enough," says Shannon Murray, Inside Sales Manager at Totango, "People don't respond to InMail. You need to reach them where they are most accessible: their email and phone."
Focus sales rep's time where it counts
Researching contact data is important, but at Martha Mackmiller, Sales Development Representative at Totango shares, "You need to take the drudgery and the hard work out of the data entry process to allow sales reps to focus on their contacts and building prospects." Totango's salespeople now contact prospects sooner, and focus their time on moving the business forward.

L M Prasad and Usha Prasad (2010)
Management Information Systems, (2nd Edition)
Sultan Chand & Sons, New Delhi
Price: 250/- Pages: 611
Information refers to processed data that can help in the working of an individual and/or organization. With the fast pace of communication and information technology that have been developed, like email, facsimile, cellphones; the development in Material Requirements, Planning, Manufacturing Resource Planning, Enterprise Resource Planning and Supply Chain Management it has become all the more imperative to manage Information Systems. Management Information Systems (MIS) are different from the regular information systems in the sense that MIS in one way also refers to the use of technology and automation which can help managers in decision-making. The book "Management Information Systems" by LM Prasad and Usha Prasad is a helpful book, because it covers the intricacies of MIS.
Just like Finance, MIS can also be regarded as the lifeblood of an enterprise. It is extremely important that the right information should be available to the right persons at the right place at the right time and perhaps at the right price. Undoubtedly, the judicious use of MIS can help manufacturers in lowering production costs, creating and offering new products and services, focusing on a market niche, establishing a link with suppliers and customers and creating strategic alliances.
The book has been effectively divided into five parts. In the first and the second part, the authors have explained the concept of MIS; different types of systems; such as Deterministic and Probabilistic Systems, Open and Closed Systems, Formal and Informal Systems; System Environment; the concept of organization; understanding organizational characteristics to build and use information systems; decision making and types of decisions; behavioural models of the decision maker such as Rational-economic model, Satisficing-administrative model, Muddling through model, Psychological model; the concept of Information Technology and contemporary developments in information technology; Database Management Systems; Object Oriented Database; Hypermedia Database; E-commerce Applications encompassing business-to-business (B2B), business-to-consumer (B2C), business-to-government (B2G) and consumer-to-administration (C2A) models. Parts 1 and 2 of the book build and edifice for gaining an understanding towards developing meaningful information systems.
It is said "If you fail to plan, then, you plan to fail". The third part of the text focuses on the aspect of planning for Information Systems. It also covers SDLC, viz. The System Development Life Cycle - the activities that form part of different stages, system implementation and maintenance. An efficient transaction processing system is a pre-requisite for developing efficient management information systems. Part IV of the book is especially devoted to transaction processing and support systems. Stephen Hawking – an IT Futurologist – once said "By 2030, robots will be physically and mentally superior to human beings". The authors have tried to bring out through meaningful examples how expert systems work and how they can be applied to solve business problems, besides explaining some artificial intelligence techniques like neural networks and fuzzy logic and their application in business. Recent developments have shown that in the absence of effective controls, one of the biggest threats to information systems is from authorized users. Part V of the book is devoted to the controls in Information Systems, Information Security, and audit of Information Systems.
In one of the chapters and extensive study of IT management frame in Japan and the US has been carried out which can be of immense help to the present day managers at all levels. The book contains probing cases which force the reader to think and act as 'eye-openers'. It also has interesting guidelines for analyzing a case which can be helpful to both management students and practitioners. The authors have done considerable justice to the relatively new concepts of Executive Information Systems, Functional Information Systems, and Integrated Information Systems.
Nonetheless, Management Information Systems is not be reviewed as a miracle of some kind or should not be considered as a magic wand to cure organizational ills; it only provides tools for analysis, decision-making, and interpretation. For proper analysis and interpretation, designing of proper information receiving and disseminating systems is a prerequisite.

Little audience for 'Zero Dark Thirty' in Pakistan
ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan stars in "Zero Dark Thirty," from early scenes at a detention site to the dramatic closing minutes as Navy SEALs assault the hideout of Osama bin Laden. But the Academy Award-nominated film about the hunt for the al Qaeda leader has sparked a controversy here about its portrayal of the country, and it will likely not be shown on the local big screen anytime soon.
Partly, the film taps into national discomfort that bin Laden was found to be living for years near Pakistan's equivalent of West Point and anger over the U.S. decision to enter its airspace and raid the compound without giving advance notice. Doubts about whether bin Laden was really hiding out for years in the city of Abbottabad are also common across Pakistan, a country where conspiracy theories often have more weight than fact.
Story Continued Below
( PHOTOS: Political films at the Academy Awards)
But Pakistanis who have seen the film on DVD or Internet downloads are also making much of what they say are factual errors.
Nadeem F. Paracha, a columnist for the English language newspaper Dawn and a cultural critic in Pakistan, noted that in some scenes characters speak Arabic, whereas Pakistanis in fact speak Urdu or Pashto or one of the tens of other languages found here.
In other scenes protesters get right up to the U.S. Embassy gates when in reality the embassy is situated in an enclosed diplomatic enclave that demonstrators can't access. Some scenes that were supposed to show the frontier city of Peshawar looked more like 19th-century Delhi in India.
"How can you make a Hollywood blockbuster, put in so much money and get simple things wrong?" Paracha asked. "Instead of the film being taken seriously, it became a joke among Pakistanis."
The movie traces the arc of the CIA's decade-long hunt for bin Laden through the eyes of a young female analyst who spends most of her time ostensibly in Pakistan. Screenwriter Mark Boal visited Pakistan to do research, but the movie scenes were not shot here.
One scene that also raises questions shows a vaccination worker going to the compound door as part of the American plan to get DNA samples from the bin Laden family. The U.S. did in fact run a fake hepatitis-vaccination campaign, but in the movie it's portrayed as an attempt to vaccinate against polio. This could add suspicion to polio workers already facing attacks by militants in the tribal agencies.
Pakistan has only a few movie theaters that show English-language films, and none so far has aired "Zero Dark Thirty." All films shown at cinemas must be approved by a board of censors, and the head of the censor board, Dr. Raja Mustafa Hyder, said no distributor has applied for permission to show the film.
Whether or not it would actually make it past the censorship board is another question, considering that a representative of the powerful Pakistani military sits on the board.
After it came out that bin Laden had been living in Abbottabad and that the military failed to detect the American raiding party coming to get him, the once-revered Pakistan army found itself on the defensive. The film also highlights the cooperation between the CIA and Pakistan's intelligence agency during the early years after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, a potentially embarrassing topic in a country with such vehement anti-American sentiment.
Jamshed Zafar, one of the leading importers and distributors of foreign films in Pakistan, said he decided after discussions with friends that it wasn't worth importing "Zero Dark Thirty."

WisPolitics reports that state Representative Jeff Wood has been released from the Chippewa County Jail, in order to participate in an extraordinary session on state employee contracts. This comes as rumors circulate around the Capitol that Assembly Democrats don't have the votes need to approve the contracts. Democrats, who stood with Wood when he faced expulsion from the Assembly last April, presumably have confirmed that the independent and former Republican will vote with them to get the deals done.
Meanwhile Governor-elect Scott Walker has told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that approving the contracts – which include no pay increases and require state employees to contribute more to benefits – could have dire consequences.

LOS ANGELES The Los Angeles Philharmonic opened its 2011-2012 season—with music director Gustavo Dudamel and creative chair for jazz Herbie Hancock—with an all-Gershwin concert and vintage-inspired evening at Walt Disney Concert Hall for more than 600 guests. Overseen by the Phil's event department, headed by senior manager for special events Gwen Strong, the event's producer-designer Gai Klass created a Rhapsody in Blue-inspired 1930's supper club on Grand Avenue between First and Second for the Rolex-sponsored gala.
To start out the night, the pre-concert reception in BP Hall beckoned guests for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres amid blue-draped cocktail tables, gardenias floating in tall cylindrical vases, and a center bar topped with a white ostrich-plumed centerpiece. Attendees moved next to the concert, where final bows were accompanied by a confetti drop of blue and silver mylar.
Next, models in top hats, tails, and boutonnières and showgirls in glittering costumes greeted guests on the sidewalk ahead of dinner with trays of champagne cocktails and martinis. The supper-club-style dinner tent setup included palm trees framing the doorways and the two standing bars. Tables were set either in ivory or deep blue in damask patterns and decorated with silver lamps and gardenias or orchids with ostrich feathers. Classic film posters and mirrors hung above banquettes.
Tables were set with candy cigarettes, Rhapsody in Blue matchboxes, and pillow mints. Gray suede banquettes studded with rhinestones lined the room. The perimeter table centerpieces were tall cocktail lamps, custom-made for the event, with an abundance of gardenias. Phalaenopsis and ostrich feathers in silver bowls topped the other dinner tables. The bars were in gray tufted suede and adorned with Rhapsody in Blue ice sculptures.
The meal, which followed welcoming remarks by L.A. Phil president Deborah Borda, co-chairs David C. Bohnett and Joan Hotchkis, and Duadamel, came by way of white-gloved servers from Patina Catering. The meal consisted of crab and shrimp Louis, deconstructed beef Wellington, and individual baked Alaskas.
Entertaining guests during dinner was a Ziegfeld Follies-style dance number with a chorus of women in blue chiffon gowns with white ostrich fans, and their partners in white tie, top hats, and carnation boutonnières. Rounding out the entertainment, the band played music from the 1930's mixed with modern dance music.

Water reclamation system saves energy & water costs
Gateway Village, a 15-acre mixed-use development complex in North Carolina—designed to bring businesses, retailers, restaurants, new residents and visitors to the area—was developed through a joint venture between Bank of America and Cousins Properties. The complex is home to three office towers totaling more than 1 million sq ft of class A office space. In late 2007, North Carolina and a large portion of the southeastern U.S. endured an exceptional drought that prompted water restrictions across the region.
The Concept
During this period, a meeting took place between Cousins Properties, property manager for Gateway Village, and its HVAC water management consultant, Aqualine Water Treatment Products of Davidson, N.C. The drought conditions and subsequent water restrictions had heightened awareness of the availability and access to clean water. At the meeting, the idea of using reclaimed non-potable groundwater from the site for cooling tower makeup was addressed.
Shortly thereafter, Cousins Properties began pursuing Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance through the U.S. Green Building Council. A major element in the pursuit of this certification was potable water demand reduction. Cousins Properties turned to Aqualine for a solution to manage the quality of reclaimed water removed from the building's foundation for the cooling tower system.
The Reward
Since the system was commissioned in early July, the cooling tower has used more than 1 million gal of groundwater. As a result, the process has provided a redundant water source, reduced the energy demand to deliver potable water, assisted in achieving the building's LEED Gold certification and reduced the makeup water costs to the owner. Robert O'Donnell, partner at Aquanomix, said, "As a provider of integrated water reclamation solutions, I'm excited to have delivered such a bold return on the social, environmental and economic initiatives to Cousins Properties in our hometown of Charlotte, N.C."

Aston Martin AM-RB 001 Release Date, Specs News: Hypercar With V12 Cosworth Engine Slated for Debut in Toronto
The culmination of Aston Martin's collaboration with Red Bull Racing will be through a street-legal hypercar codenamed AM-RB 001, which is slated to make its debut at the Canadian International Auto Show (CIAS) in Toronto this weekend.
"The synergy between Red Bull Racing and Aston Martin is clear. I knew Red Bull Racing had the ability to handle the pure performance aspects, but Aston Martin's experience of making beautiful, fast and comfortable GT cars is of great benefit to the project," said Adrian Newey, chief technical officer of Red Bull Racing.
Dr. Andy Palmer, president and CEO of Aston Martin, also teased that the AM-RB 001 will be a history-making hypercar that will be known for its design, efficiency and performance.
The overall goal of the collaboration is to create a hypercar that is usable on the road but delivers performance only previously seen in race cars. There is also a desire to provide drivers with intense levels of driving pleasure.
The Aston Martin AM-RB 001 utilizes a lightweight carbon-fiber structure equipped with underfloor aerodynamics that will deliver unprecedented levels of downforce. The design is also dramatic, elegant and cutting-edge with all aspects of the car to be bespoke — something that will make it distinctly an Aston Martin creation.
Aston Martin has not revealed full specifications but according to AutoCar, the AM-RB 001 will feature a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine from Cosworth and a seven-speed gearbox manufactured by Ricardo. It is expected to deliver around 900 horsepower.
Given immense power under the hood, the hypercar will be equipped with innovative suspension technology to make sure drivers are still comfortable despite driving at high speeds.
Only 150 examples of the AM-RB 001 will be produced and that number already includes the prototypes and 25 track-only models. First deliveries aren't expected until 2018 so be sure to check out the Toronto Auto Show, scheduled from Feb. 17 to 26, to catch a glimpse of the highly anticipated hypercar.

Typically, my time in New York consists of multiple Starbucks trips, laying out in Sheep's Meadow in the spring and summer with a Steinbeck novel, dinner at somewhere like Delmonico's or Bar Americain if I'm with my parents, or somewhere super cheap like Joe's Shanghai in Chinatown if I'm with friends, and finished up with a trip to Magnolia Bakery, depending on the neighborhood that I'm in. Wash, rinse, repeat, with few exceptions.
When J told me that my Christmas present was going to be a day in the city, a part of me was excited, while a part just kind of felt like I was out of control of the whole thing - it was liberating to know that I could experience something that wasn't typical for me, especially in my beloved city.
I think part of the beauty of New York is that even if you're like moi, and go in at least two or three times a month, there is always something new. A new restaurant, a new club, a new martini that has everyone by crazy, or a new dessert sensation that you have to try - New York has it all. For me, the new thing that I saw, for the first time in 22 (almost 23) years was snow in Central Park, which greeted J and I as we walked from 42nd Street to the East Side.
We headed on New Years Day, and the city was still jam packed in all the tourist spots, with them lined up and down the block, speaking a variety of languages with various accents, eyes glittering as they looked at Central Park for the first time as they waited for their horse and carriage rides. The carriage drivers were clearly ecstatic about the tourists who were clueless to the fact that typically a carriage ride is $35/half hour, as they were now charging $65/half hour for a trip around the park.
(Side note: When walking in New York City, please, please, please don't stop short in the middle of a sidewalk for any reason -- you will get trampled, and most likely the finger).
In true Allison fashion, our very first stop was Starbucks, where I loaded up on not one, but two coffees (enlisting the help of J - such a doll), before venturing back out onto the streets covered with slush and the remnants of the blizzard that happened a week prior.
The sky was gray with the looming promise of either rain or snow, and when my hopes were just beginning to sink (because there is nothing this girl hates more than walking around the city in the rain), a van pulled up next to the road, stuck at a red light, blasting this song, which always makes me feel happy, maybe just because of the irony of it all (I can't explain it - it's one of those things).
We continued up Fifth Avenue, which was lined with brownstones and apartment buildings (and foreign consulate housing) that was still decorated for the holidays. Wreaths hung on almost every wrought-iron window, and no two were alike.
We walked and walked, passing The Met and heading up Museum Ave, until we arrived at the Guggenheim. Now, the Guggenheim is one of those New York things that I feel like I should have done by now but never have - and, it combines two of my favorite things -- art and Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture.
For those of you who have never been, the art and sculptures in the museum are all on different levels, and you have to walk up a spiral type layout (six floors worth, all uphill!). There are no photos allowed after you wall up to the first level of art though, so this is as much as I can show you of it.
It was beautiful though - tons of Picasso (who is one of my all-time favorites) lined the walls along with Léger (Fernand, not Herve!), Brague, and a few Degas and Manet's, the Guggenheim is truly a gorgeous place, filled with amazing and lesser known pieces by renowned artists.
Upon leaving the Guggenheim, we then began the arduous task of hiking from Fifth Avenue and Central Park East (where I was asked for help with directions from four different tourists, which always makes me feel good, especially when I can actually help them out), all the way to West Broadway. I cannot even begin to tell you how many miles that is, but let me tell you - it took us an hour to do this, and I am a FAST walker.
Though it was a painfully long walk, we were able to walk through the snow covered Central Park (for like, miles), where it seemed like everyone in New York was out making snowmen (and dogs apparently), having snowball fights - it was nice to see a place that can be so scary (at night), also be such a family place, where people can act like children again.
Also, it was a personal triumph for me, because I successfully navigated us through the park, and to Broadway without using my BlackBerry for directions! I'm finally getting the hang of figuring out my way around the city (at least within Manhattan!).
By the time we arrived at the restaurant that J had picked, called Accademia di Vino, I promise you with no exaggeration that I was afraid my legs were going to fall off.
We were immediately seated, and had the most wonderful server I've ever had a restaurant. He was friendly and sweet, but not overbearing, and seemed to genuinely enjoy his job, which is always fun. After all that walking, I was star-ving, and when the waiter rattled off the list of specials (that probably had about fifteen things on it - my head kept tilting closer to my shoulder as I struggled to pay attention to everything he was saying), my stomach growled louder and louder.
After ordering, our appetizers came out within minutes (which was good, because I was about to run the train on the homemade focaccia bread sitting in the basket in front of us), with the entrees shortly after that.
Radicchio salad with candied walnuts, goat cheese, and an orange vinagrette dressing. SO GOOD.
J got the mahi mahi with Israeli couscous. I can't tell you how it was, because he did not share (I probably wouldn't share with him either!).
I got pumpkin, caramelized onion, and pancetta pizza. Nothing has ever tasted more perfect to me. (Seriously, make a trip to New York and go to Accademia JUST for this pizza).
It was such a perfect meal, and I was excited that I broke out of my routine and ordered something super unique for dinner.
And, the night ended the way all nights in New York City should end - because you can't always break the routine.
(I break off the bottom and eat it first, and save the yummy frosting for last).
I apologize again for not visiting your blogs more - it was a crazy week between moi having an awful stomach virus (the day after this trip actually, yuck!), and then my mom having crazy back problems. I'll definitely be better about it (it is my resolution after all!).
Currently listening to: Mumford & Sons - Awake My Soul.
