History Monday, 14. July 2014
Schloss Prielau was first documented in 1425, with a Christian Glaser zu Prielau named. In the 16th century the castle was rebuilt and gained the design it keeps today.
Over the following centuries, Schloss Prielau changed owners many times. The last prince bishop to use the castle was Sigmund Christoph von Zeil and Trauchburg. His emblem can still be seen today at the castle gate.
In 1932 Gerti von Hofmannsthal, the widow of Hugo von Hofmannsthal, bought the estate and restored the castle. In the Second World War the family was dispossessed and sculptor Josef Thorak was able to acquire the castle. After the war the Hofmannsthal family then had their estate returned.
In 1987 the Porsche family bought the property and converted the castle into a hotel.
Since 2004 the castle has been managed by Anette and Andreas Mayer, who treat guests at the hotel and Mayer's gourmet restaurant.

So much for brotherly love.
Rob Kardashian took aim at his youngest sister, Kylie Jenner, Monday night when he tweeted her real cell phone number to his 6.65 million followers. Apparently, there's some behind-the-scenes beef about an upcoming baby shower.
"Didn't invite the Mother of my child to a baby shower you all were trying to throw for me ? You all must have lost your damn minds," he wrote after sharing Jenner's digits and clarifying his account had not been hacked.
While we know his relationship with Kylie--who has been dating Blac Chyna's ex Tyga for years--has not been so smooth at times, what could have suddenly sparked such a brawl? A source tells E! News the drama boils down to a baby shower planned for Kardashian that Blac Chyna was not invited to.
Biggest Celebrity Twitter Feuds
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
In a potential moment of foreshadowing, Blac Chyna confirmed on Snapchat earlier Monday that her baby shower is currently planned for Sunday. As a source told E! News the event is being held by her friends and has been "in the works for a while now."
"Kendall [Jenner] and Kylie were invited and had RSVP'd to attend," the source added. However, a second source tells E! News that Kendall will be in Paris until Oct. 6.
As for a second "DILF" shower planned in Kardashian's honor, the source says Blac Chyna was going to go in his place and that's where the bickering began. "Rob couldn't attend, so Chyna was going to attend and Kim [Kardashian] said if Rob didn't go, then Chyna couldn't go. It sounds like that's what caused the argument."
While we wait to see who will stir the pot next, Jenner has privately reacted to the antics--by changing her phone number.

First, I'm sorry for the downtime. Though it doesn't make it right, it's totally out of my hands and the people in a position to fix it know about the problem, so I get to twiddle my thumbs and wait. I don't think anyone is more frustrated with it than I am, with exception of the CG members that pay for Project Wonderful adverts or sell ad space on thier pages.
I'm giving this another week and if things are working properly again, I'm going to start looking for another host. It just sucks though because I love having a forum that I just basically have to link to and that's all. Additionally, I just got the search engines, comic lists, etc, all pointed to my comicgenesis URL... so I have some vested intrest in staying here.
Aside from all that, I don't want to bother my readership with the headaches involved with a bookmark update.
Apology number 2: I was sorta called out for requesting Fanart in the CG forums. I didn't realize it was a faux pas... I just figured I'd offer up free bannerspace to anyone who wanted it. People have never been afraid to ask me for a drawing... I assumed that sorta thing was alright.
so, I'm sorry. But I did get some totally killer fanart out of it, thanks to Dread. I'll have it all properly posted and linked as soon as the Forsaken comes back up.

HARTSVILLE, S.C. – The Coker softball team earned a pair of wins and a series sweep of Pfeiffer University on Wednesday. The Cobras improve to 10-8 overall and 4-2 in the Conference Carolinas standings.
Coker scored four unanswered runs in the first four innings and then used solid defense and pitching to hold off the Falcons for a 4-0 shutout victory.
The Conference Carolinas Pitcher of the Week, Katie Lee (Debray, Fla.), had a good outing earning her third win of the season with a complete game shutout, scattering seven hits with a pair of strikeouts.
Jaclin Poole (Clover, S.C.), Stacy Burr (Darlington, S.C.) and Gina Easler (Edgefield, S.C.) each drove in a run for the Cobras, while both Kentesha Jenkins (Darlington, S.C.) and Jennifer Sanborn (Beaufort, S.C.) had a hit with a run scored.
Game two was a scoreless affair until the Cobras plated a run in the fifth inning. Pfeiffer took their first lead of the series with a pair of runs in the top of the sixth, but Coker quickly evened the game at two, with a run in the bottom half of the inning.
Burr gave the Cobras a 3-2 win by driving Sarah Rountree (Plantation, Fla.) home with two outs in the bottom of the seventh.
Burr finished the game with a pair of RBIs, while Rountree was 1-for-4 with two runs scored. Sydney Weatherford had a double with a run scored, and Sanborn drove in a run.
Logan Cox (Georgetown, S.C.) (4-1) was the winning pitcher for the Cobras. She went 6.1 innings allowing one run on six hits.
The Cobras will be back on the field on Thursday when they travel to Due West, S.C. to take on Erskine College in a Conference Carolinas doubleheader. First pitch is scheduled for 2:00 p.m.
McDonald's Player of the Game- Stacy Burr
Burr had three RBIs in Coker's two games, including the game-winner in game two.
The McDonald's Player of the Game is presented by the Hartsville McDonald's and is given to the most outstanding performer during each Coker College home athletic event.

Speed TV will become Fox Sports 1
More cable channel rebranding…Fox plans to go head-to-head with Disney's ESPN with its new Fox Sports 1, the remake of Speed TV due in August, in the same way that NBC changed Versus into the NBC Sports Network early this year.
It all amounts to new challenges to the longtime leader in cable sportscasting, ESPN. What will FS1 have that ESPN doesn't have? Regis Philbin as a host. Also look for Major League Baseball games on FS1.
According to The New York Times, Fox Sports 1 plans to carry NASCAR races, MLB games, college basketball and football games, soccer matches, and UFC fights.

Chicago police on Thursday were looking for the driver who hit and dragged a basketball recruiter in the early morning hours and didn't stick around.
Officials said Billy Taylor, 40, was struck around 4:17 a.m. in the 1000 block of West Division Street by a 2010-2013 dark blue or black Hyundai Sonata. He was dragged more than 1,000 feet down the road, police said.
Taylor, who was working on a deal with Earl Clark of the Los Angeles Lakers, was transported to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in critical condition and later died.
"He had the biggest heart. He loved basketball more than any guy I've met," said Taylor's friend, Mike Naivitch.
Naivitch said he spoke with Taylor for the last time on Wednesday when Taylor expressed excitement about Thursday night's game between the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks.
John Spencer, the CEO of 540 Sports and Entertainment in Durham, N.C., said Taylor was well respected in the basketball world and said Taylor and Knicks guard Iman Shumpert were close.
Taylor is survived by three children. The oldest, 18, said he wanted to follow in his dad's footsteps.
Police said the Sonata that struck Taylor would have been traveling west on Division prior to the hit-and-run and continued west on Division after the incident.
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call Major Accident Investigations at 312-745-4521.
Basketball Recruiter Struck, Dragged in Hit-and-Run

Jon Bon Jovi rocked out a little too hard at his band's Friday night show at the Meadowlands.
The singer suffered a leg injury while performing on-stage and had to limp through the rest of the night's show, according to People.
"Jon Bon Jovi sustained a torn calf muscle," said a spokesperson for the star in a statement released to the magazine. "Jon made light of the injury and went on to close the show with their hit, 'Living On a Prayer.' The band ended the night together, thanking the capacity hometown crowd, and assisting Jon off the stage."
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
Keep the faith, fans: after the band had an off day Saturday, Bon Jovi planned to play a show in Saratoga Springs on Sunday evening. The injury is not expected to keep the rocker from playing any upcoming tour dates.

Wedding Belles
Here's a recommendation to anybody who lives in Bandra or beyond.I had dinner at a gorgeous restaurant located in the Taj Land's End, called PURE. Why PURE? The cuisine is organic - and therefore pure. Please note: Organic. Not strictly vegetarian. And definitely not to be confused with health food. Organic suggests a chemical free approach. The ingredients are organically grown and cooked. My five course meal, designed by the executive chef, Anirudhya Roy was perfectly paired with rare Single Malts (which I do not drink, but my husband is a connoisseur of), by Rishi Mehra, the restaurant manager. All of this was overseen by Rohit Khosla, who we used to know from his days at The President Hotel next door, and who now runs the Taj LAND'S END with his customary finesse. This amazing team made sure our table of ten had a memorable evening. Check this out :Seared Tamari shrimps and scallops on sugarcane skewers, Himalayan Trout in tangerine tomato broth, and a dessert that was created out of no less than 8 pure textures of chocolate (Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise 2003 complemented this heavenly treat to perfection).
Am off to Alibag to keep another dinner date with my husband. He has promised me shrimp curry. I can't wait. Salivate!!!

Good luck and best wishes for your daughter's upcoming wedding!
I can very well imagine what it would be like to organize everything without anyone's guidance! I myself am getting married in January, and here there are so many people to guide me and my parents (not to mention one's opinion is diametrically opposite to the other's) that we feel totally confused and lost! :-)
All the very best to you! God bless...

But what one thing what is for sure though on the good extreme part of it is that Carlos Santana is one of the greatest living legend in Rock.
He rocks... and Black Magic Woman is one of his all time hits... but De listen to Smooth, The Calling Feat. Dave Matthews Band and also listen to Carzon Espianado... Good too!!!

Something is happening in folksy little Pleasant Hill. And I don't know what it is.
Pleasant Hill is a wee rural community just a few miles east of I-5 on Hwy. 58. There's no town in the town, unless you count a small cluster of shops around Ray's Market. It's rather surprising that among the shops near Ray's we'd find 'S Wine, maybe the best outlet for German wines within a hundred miles. That's odd not only because German wines are notoriously hard to sell (buyers who can't pronounce trockenbeerenauslese are usually reluctant to plunk down $100 for a half-bottle). It's odd, too, because Pleasant Hill, despite its proximity to Eugene, is distinctly country and we wouldn't expect to find there much interest in the nuances of fine wines: goats, yes; cows, sure; even miniature burros; beers and Friday nights watching the Pleasant Hill Billies play football, definitely.
We probably wouldn't expect much enthusiasm for the complexities of pinot noir.
But if we look closer, we get (another) lesson in how looks can be deceiving. Under that bucolic surface, Pleasant Hill is a complex place.
We've had some harsh lessons in that reality lately. Just two weeks ago, one of Pleasant Hill's best youngsters took her own life and ravaged the hearts and shattered the hopes of hundreds of people. Rachel Nice was a bright, lovely girl with a nearly idyllic past and virtually unlimited future. She was not just one of the good kids, she was a star. I met her when she was a student in one of my LCC classes: sharp mind, good skills, strong work ethic, beamish smile, natural leader. As a student at PHHS, she'd been active: raised prize-winning goats in FFA; Girl Scout, silver and gold awards; cheerleader, on the state championship team for three years. Her prospects couldn't have been sunnier. Then — poof! — she was gone, and tears fell like rain all over that valley.
Yet the hills rolled on, green and fertile, and all seemed sweet and peaceful in Pleasant Hill. And there was wine.
Pleasant Hill now has Bodner Wine Company, which (at bodnerwinecompany.wordpress.com) calls itself a "microwinery." Surprisingly, Bodner Wine Company Pinot Noir ($22) is quite tasty. The grapes are sourced from Briggs Hill vineyards (neighbors to Sweet Cheeks and Silvan Ridge), producers of long-lived wines under the Briggs Hill label. Bodner pinot noir offers light body and bright fruit flavors of red berries (cherry, raspberry) with good acidity for various food matches (keep it light).
We haven't found it yet, but Bodner also makes a Riesling, the great grape of — you guessed it — Germany.
Time for me to depart Pleasant Hill and its surprises, both the tragic and the delightful: Spindrift 2011 Pinot Gris ($15) is typical of this label's fine wine-making: crisp, clean, yummy fruit flavors (pears, green apples, some tropicals) and zesty acidity, ready for cheesy/creamy pastas.
Sometimes we want what we see to be exactly what we get, no surprises.

DETROIT, Dec. 30 (UPI) -- Olindo Mare kicked four field goals Sunday and the Chicago Bears posted a 26-24 victory over Detroit, but still fell out of NFC playoff contention.
Jay Cutler completed 18-of-31 passes for 257 yards and a touchdown without an interception and Matt Forte added 103 rushing yards with a score on 24 carries for Chicago (10-6).
Earl Bennett hauled down a scoring pass among his five grabs for 109 yards for the Bears, whose playoff hopes were dashed when Minnesota defeated Green Bay later Sunday to claim the final NFC wild card berth.
Matthew Stafford went 24-of-42 through the air for 272 yards with three touchdowns and a pick-off for the Lions (4-12).
Calvin Johnson finished his record-breaking season with 72 receiving yards on five catches, ending the year 36 yards shy of the 2,000-yard mark.

Models of Sustainable Development
Sylvie Faucheux, David Pearce, John L. R. Proops
Edward Elgar, 1996 - Business & Economics - 365 pages
Models of sustainable development are increasingly used to address large scale environmental problems ensuring that responses to present day needs do not compromise the prospects of future generations.
In this new book a wide range of approaches to modelling sustainable development are examined, including neo-classical, evolutionary, ecological economics and neo-Ricardian models. Recognizing that the application of sustainable development requires the reorientation of economic analysis on several fundamental points, a distinguished group of authors re-examines such key issues as intra- and intergenerational equity, the treatment of the very long-term, the irreversibility of ecological change, fundamental uncertainty and system complexity, and processes of technological change. The achievements and limitations of different models of sustainable development are explored, with particular reference to their value in support of decision-making.
Researchers and graduate students in environmental economics will welcome this volume's rigorous approach to environmental sustainability as well as its consideration of a wide range of different modelling approaches and, in particular, the assumptions which sustain them.

Gone are the days of traditional pastel prints to introduce the arrival of spring! Designer Josie Natori presented a line bursting with color and panache during New York Fashion Week at EZ Studios.
As expected after 35 years in fashion, the collection drew quite the crowd. Designer Josie Natori stood at the entrance of the venue and greeted guests as if they entered into her home.
Inspired by her native country of the Philippians, Natori presented visually captivating pieces that were reminiscent of the parade of street dancers and all their vibrant body decorations. Natori could be heard saying, "It's the colorful history and folklore of the Philippines of my youth, it's a vibrant collection that reflects a vibrant culture."
Heavily painted and tattooed men and women in the Central Philippines, whose tattoos represent courage and beauty, are reflected in the new designs.
As a tribute to her favorite festival, the Flores de Mayo (Flowers of May), stunning models wore intricately crafted blouses with sheer panels, sheer skirts, vivid frocks and jumpers that exploded with vivid colors and exotic flowers.
The color filled collection was very reminiscent of nature as models adorned their heads with orchids that looked like the bird of paradise. They also wore a sexy strappy platform in an array of colors that Natori designed.
Undoubtedly the SS/ 2013 RTW collection was vivid, romantic and bursting with culture. The bold and feminine woman will be sure to embrace the designs.

'Being Infringed' as a Normatively Induced Innovation Exploitation StrategyReitzig, Markus; Henkel, Joachim; Heath, Christopher (, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Patent trolls (or sharks) are small patent holding individuals or firms who trap R&D intense manufacturers in patent infringement situations in order to receive damage awards for the illegitimate use of their technology. While of great concern to management, their existence and impact for both corporate decision makers and policy makers remains to be fully analyzed from an academic standpoint. In this paper we show why patent sharks can operate profitably, why they are of growing concern, how manufacturers can forearm themselves against them, and which issues policy makers need to address. To do so, we map international indemnification rules with strategic rationales of small patent-holding firms within a game-theoretical model. Our central finding is that the courts' unrealistic consideration of the trade-offs faced by inadvertent infringers is a central condition for sharks to operate profitably.

Analyzing the consistency of EPO's ruling on novelty and inventive step in emerging industriesBurke, Paul F.; Reitzig, Markus (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The increasing number of patent applications worldwide and the extension of patenting to the areas of software and business methods have triggered a debate on "patent quality". While patent quality may have various dimensions, this paper argues that consistency in the decision making on the side of the patent office is one important dimension, particularly in new patenting areas (emerging technologies). In order to understand whether patent offices appear capable of providing consistent assessments of a patent's technological quality in such novel industries from the beginning, we study the concordance of the European Patent Office's (EPO's) granting and opoposition decisions for individual patents. We use the historical example of biotech patens filed between 1978 until 1986, the early stage of the industry. Our results indicate that the EPO shows systematically different assessments of technological quality during the granting and the opposition phase. The inconsistency is likely not entirely attributable to additional information revealed after the grant date. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6778

testing current theory on value drivers of innovations within a structural two-stage discrete choice simultaneous equation modelReitzig, Markus (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Patent indicators are widely used to assess innovative output. Despite the large variety of empirical studies in the field, however, the precise meaning of these indicators and their obvious relation to patent value is still based on assumptions and intuitions. This paper provides the first empirical test of patent indicators as value measures in the structural form. It disentangles the different effects reflected in patent indicators and enhances our understanding why inventions are valuable at all. Using a newly assembled data set on European polymer patents, current assumptions on the innovation incentives set by patentability requirements (novelty, inventive activity) are tested. The estimations are carried out using a custom-tailored two stage discrete choice probit model yet unknown in the literature. The results support the assumptions that novelty and inventive activity enhance a patent's value. They confirm the importance of backward citations, family size, and forward citations as va lue indicators. However, they expand on and partly break with the respective explanations why patent indicators correlate with profitability. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6807

A comparative analysis of the explanatory power of accounting and patent information for the market values of German firmsRamb, Fred; Reitzig, Markus (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We present a theoretical and empirical analysis of the fitness of national German (German Commercial Code – Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB)) and international (IAS and US-GAAP) accounting information, as well as European patent data to explain the market values of German manufacturing firms. For the chosen volatile period from 1997 to 2002, cautious national accounting information does not correlate with the firms' residual market values (RMV). International accounting information makes no meaningful contribution to explaining firms' RMV and seems to measure overinvestment only. Finally, patents counted at the individual country level correlate with the firms' RMV.

Balance Sheet and Patent Data as Sources of Investor Information During Volatile Market TimesRamb, Fred; Reitzig, Markus (Frederiksberg, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We originally investigate the comparative usefulness of patent data as a source of investor information depending on the market cycle (bull/bear market). Based on comprehensive data for firms listed on German exchanges between 1997 and 2002, we demonstrate that patent data contain complementary explanatory power to accounting data irrespective of the standard used to prepare the financial statement (German GAAP, IAS and US GAAP). Moreover, we provide original evidence that only patent data are able to provide plausible investor information in both bull-market and bear-market periods, whereas accounting information overvalues intangible assets in bull markets and undervalues them in bears.

A Comparative International Analysis of Innovation Incentives from Patent Indemnification RulesReitzig, Markus; Henkel, Joachim; Heath, Christopher (København, 2002)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Abstract: This paper contributes to the fundamental discussion of setting optimal liabilities in restitution law by analyzing the effects that the existing multitude of indemnification rules for patent infringements have on innovative and imitative activity. From a theoretical legal standpoint, the choice of patent law is particularly enlightening due to its hybrid public and private nature. From an economic perspective its relevance lies in regulating the driving forces of welfare in highly industrialized societies. Our analysis of regulations from six different jurisdictions (US, JP, DE, UK, FR, NL) reveals that from a scholarly standpoint none of the regulations sets optimal liabilities in general. Our major finding is that an expectation damage rule based on a renegotiation outcome from an ex-ante perspective (falling in between the generic legal notions of 'lost profits' and 'infringer's profits') between licensor and licensee appears optimal in patent infringement cases to avoid dynamic inefficiencies. The result is intuitive, however, was not predicted by the existing literature on indemnification law.

When I started The Chicago Life Blog or "TCLB" in 2012 with one of my best friends, Sam Voss, we had no idea what lay ahead. We were in our first year of law school and looking for a creative outlet to share our love of fashion, design, interiors, etc. These days a lot has changed! Sam and I remain the best of friends, though she now lives in LA (you can keep up with her here) and the blog has taken on a life of its own. I maintain TCLB partially as a personal blog sharing things like my wedding, home, and most recently our baby news, but I also love interviewing the people who inspire me [some favorites include: Rachel Zoe, Simon Doonan, Karlie Kloss, and Jason Wu] and looking into the stylish lives of other Chicagoans [still drooling over the homes of Jay Michael, Lindsay Segal, Nicole Banks, and Eva Daiberl].
Over the past few years I've also been fortunate enough to partner and collaborate with major fashion and lifestyle brands such as Topshop, Lexus, Target, Bloomingdale's and more. Interested in working with TCLB? Or just want to say hi? You can always reach me at email@example.com. Thanks for visiting!

Remember when you had just one child and "the sky was the limit" as far as birthday parties were concerned. You probably did not even bother to add up the costs of all of those trips to the party store, the last minute goodie bags and the specialty cake from a fancy bakery. Your child's party was a special event that you looked forward to and had time to plan months in advance.
Many years later and many more additions to your family, you may feel very differently about your kid's parties. With three or more birthday's spread throughout the year, suddenly you are constantly trying to keep up with the gift buying, and party planning all while staying on a budget. There is also a new level of stress with party planning and making sure you are treating all of your kids equally.
So what do you do if you have three or more kids who all want to invite their whole class to a theme party at a climbing gym, bowling alley or swim club? When you start to add up the cost of the event, plus food, cake, crafts or goodie bags and other miscellaneous costs, you may be looking at paying over $ 350 for one party.
For many families, having a large birthday party is just not an option. With a large family and many expenses, small gatherings or a celebration with family members may be the routine.
One family I know, who are a family with three kids, rotates who gets the big, themed party each year. The other two children do something special, but small with a few close friends. This has worked out well for them and the children are more appreciative of their "big parties" when it is their turn.
With my own family, I have been trying a variation of this method. I usually let my two children have a larger, themed party every other year, during the same year. It has worked out that they usually want to do the same event. Since their birthdays are less than two months apart, I book the same place for two dates. This has made the researching and booking part a lot easier. The next year, my kids may take a couple of friends to a movie or have a pizza party at home.
Trying to stay within a budget for the larger parties is always hard. Make a list of the bare necessities, estimate what it will cost and add it all up before making many trips back and forth to the store. If you decide to have a large (or small) party at home or at a park, consider many great online party options like birthday craft sites that also include other activities and tableware, balloons, invitations etc … This way you will know all of your costs up front.

Besides differentiating databases
according to function, databases can also be
differentiated according to how they model the data.
What is a data model?
Well, essentially
a data model is a "description" of both a container for data and a
methodology for storing and retrieving data from that container. Actually,
there isn't really a data model "thing". Data models are abstractions,
oftentimes mathematical algorithms and concepts. You cannot really
touch a data model. But nevertheless, they are very useful. The analysis
and design of data models has been the cornerstone of the evolution of
databases. As models have advanced so has database efficiency.
Before the 1980's, the two most commonly
used Database Models were the hierarchical and network
systems. Let's take a quick look at these two models and then move on
to the more current models.
As its name implies, the Hierarchical
Database Model defines hierarchically-arranged data.
the most intuitive way to visualize this type of relationship
is by visualizing an upside down tree of data. In this tree, a
single table acts as the "root" of the database from which
other tables "branch" out.
You will be instantly familiar
with this relationship because that is how all windows-based
directory management systems (like Windows Explorer) work
these days.
Relationships in such a system are thought
of in terms of children and parents such that a child may only
have one parent but a parent can have multiple children. Parents
and children are tied together by links called "pointers" (perhaps
physical addresses inside the file system). A parent will have a
list of pointers to each of their children.
This child/parent rule assures that data
is systematically accessible. To get to a low-level table, you
start at the root and work your way down through the tree until
you reach your target. Of course, as you might imagine, one
problem with this system is that the user must know how the
tree is structured in order to find anything!
The hierarchical model however, is much
more efficient than the flat-file model we discussed earlier
because there is not as much need for redundant data. If a change
in the data is necessary, the change might only need to be
processed once. Consider the student flatfile database
example from our discussion of what databases are:
As we mentioned before, this flatfile
database would store an excessive amount of redundant data.
If we implemented this in a hierarchical database model, we
would get much less redundant data. Consider the following
hierarchical database scheme:
However, as you can imagine, the
hierarchical database model has some serious
problems. For one, you cannot add a record to a child table
until it has already been incorporated into the parent table.
This might be troublesome if, for example, you wanted to add
a student who had not yet signed up for any courses.
Worse, yet, the hierarchical database model
still creates repetition of data within the database. You might
imagine that in the database system shown above, there may be a higher
level that includes multiple course. In this case, there could be
redundancy because students would be enrolled in several courses and
thus each "course tree" would have redundant student information.
Redundancy would occur
because hierarchical databases handle one-to-many
relationships well but do not handle many-to-many relationships
well. This is because a child may only have one parent.
However, in many cases you will want to have the child be
related to more than one parent. For instance, the relationship
between student and class is a "many-to-many". Not only can a student
take many subjects but a subject may also be taken by many
students. How would you model this relationship simply and
efficiently using a hierarchical database? The answer is
that you wouldn't.
Though this problem can be solved with
multiple databases creating logical links between children, the
fix is very kludgy and awkward.
Faced with these serious problems,
the computer brains of the world got together and came
up with the network model.
In many ways, the Network Database model
was designed to solve some of the more serious problems with the
Hierarchical Database Model. Specifically, the Network model
solves the problem of data redundancy by representing relationships
in terms of sets rather than hierarchy. The model had its
origins in the Conference on Data Systems Languages (CODASYL)
which had created the Data Base Task Group to explore and design
a method to replace the hierarchical model.
The network model is very similar to the
hierarchical model actually. In fact, the hierarchical model is
a subset of the network model. However, instead of using a
single-parent tree hierarchy, the network model
uses set theory to provide a tree-like hierarchy with the
exception that child tables were allowed to have more than one
parent. This allowed the network model to support many-to-many
Visually, a Network Database looks like a
hierarchical Database
in that you can see it as a type of tree. However, in the
case of a Network Database, the look is more like several trees which share
branches. Thus, children can have multiple parents
and parents can have multiple children.
Nevertheless, though it was a dramatic
improvement, the network model was far from perfect. Most
profoundly, the model was difficult to implement and maintain.
Most implementations of the network model were used by computer
programmers rather than real users. What was needed was a simple
model which could be used by real end users to solve real
Enter the Relational Database Model.

"They got frustrated with the technology and moved on to something else — I think is the short story," Smiths Detection vice president Brook Miller said of TSA.
Miller said the puffers had maintenance issues early on because they puff air and then suck it into the system to analyze it. "It just wasn't to be in the airport environment," he said. Puffers are still used at facilities with less human traffic to detect drugs, he said.
Smiths Detection, which is based in England, is one of the manufacturers of the full-body imaging machines that will replace the puffers.
