Asrevenue generation is of great importance to a business, it is essential for companies to analyzetheir revenue model to establish whether their current model for revenue appropriation isoptimal.After conducting pre-interviews at Bisnode AB, the commissioner of this study, it becameevident that Bisnode has a need to analyze their current revenue model for its credit decisionservices in a structured manner to ensure its competitiveness and profitability. Thus, this thesiswill study revenue model analysis for firms active in the market for credit decision services.The research was conducted through a qualitative case study at Bisnode, based on semistructuredinterviews, observations and archival information. By identifying which aspects totake into consideration when analyzing a revenue model, and by grounding the findings into theexisting literature, a complete framework for revenue model analysis was developed. Theframework facilitates revenue model analysis and consists of five different dimensions: financial,customers, strategy, competition, and macro environment. Further, by linking the case studyfindings to the existing body of literature, a work process for revenue model analysis wasproposed. The outcome of this study is a framework for revenue model analysis to be used bycompanies offering credit decision services.The findings of the research have both theoretical, managerial and sustainability implications.From a theoretical standpoint, a framework for revenue model analysis that integrates strategicmanagement literature and studies on value proposition has been proposed. Furthermore, asearlier research has been mainly focused on the business model as a whole, this report studies therevenue model as an independent research topic and lays the foundation for further research inthe domain. From a managerial perspective, the outcome of the research enables managers offirms active in the credit decision services market to comprehensively analyze revenue models ina structured fashion. Finally, the revenue model analysis framework assesses a revenue model'scompetitiveness and profitability, which contributes to the economical sustainability of a firm.

Sunderland visit Middlesbrough in the Tees-Wear derby on Wednesday night, looking desperately to secure a first win since February 4 in a late bid to avoid the drop from the Premier League
The Black Cats will be heartened by their improved performance in last weekend's 2-2 home draw with West Ham, and the club's recent record away to Boro.
Including the FA Cup replay victory at the Riverside in 2012, Sunderland have been unbeaten in their last four visits to Teesside.
Here we look back at the last five meetings of the sides at the Riverside.
Middlesbrough 1 Sunderland 2
February 8, 2012 – FA Cup
Sunderland struck late in extra time on a dramatic night to seal progression to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Following a 1-1 draw at the Stadium of Light, Sunderland took the lead just before half-time through Jack Colback, when his powerful volley cannoned in off the crossbar.
But Championship side Boro were level when Lukas Jutkiewicz reacted quickest to a loose ball, lashing home Curtis Main's knockdown for his first goal for the Teessiders after signing from Coventry
Phil Bardsley then struck the post as the visitors pushed on, but neither side could grab a winner in 90 minutes.
As extra time ticked on, and with penalties looming, a mazy run and shot from Stephane Sessegnon bounced back to the Benin international, allowing him to steer home the winner in the 113th minute
Middlesbrough 1 Sunderland 1
Januar 10, 2009 – Premier League
Kenwyne Jones struck an 82nd-minute equaliser to grab a point for Ricky Sbragia's men at the Riverside.
A tight first half ended with Boro on top, Afonso Alves making the breakthrough just before the interval, finishing off well from the edge of the box after a lively link-up with Stewart Downing.
But Sunderland improved in the closing stages and Jones levelled matters from seven yards out, clinically despatching a fine ball in from the right from sub David Healy.
Sunderland could even snatched victory late on, but Adam Johnson produced a remarkable clearance off the line after Djibril Cisse got his head to an Andty Reid corner.
Middlesbrough 2 Sunderland 2
September 22, 2007 – Premier League
For the opening and closing couple of minutes of this game, Sunderland were irresistible – Grant Leadbitter's determined opener and Liam Miller's spectacular closer earning the Black Cats a valuable Premiership point.
But the intervening 86 minutes were a concern for manager Roy Keane, as Sunderland were ragged for long periods and at times hanging on as Boro's classy midfield and solid defence dominated proceedings.
There were precious few areas of the pitch where the Wearsiders were not second best and only their never-say-die spirit and a moment of brilliance avoided a third away defeat in four this season.
"We got away with it," was Keane's ultimate verdict on a game brimful of incident and commitment from both sides.
Leadbitter fired Sunderland ahead early on, after Julio Arca lost possession, but the Argentinian equalised against his former club with a powerful header past Craig Gordon from Gary O'Neil's cross.
He was later stretchered off but saw Boro dominant and going ahead when Downing smashed a right-foot shot from 25 yards out which swerved in the air and beat Gordon.
Sunderland looked beaten, but a wonderful goal rescued a point when Kenwyne Jones and Davod Wheater went up for a ball on the edge of the Boro area and it bounced back to Miller 20 yards out.
The Irishman chested it forward, moved on to the ball and smashed a left-foot shot which spiralled into the very top right-hand corner of Schwarzer's goal, sending the travelling fans wild.
Middlesbrough 0 Sunderland 2
September 25, 2005 – Premier League
The newly-promoted Black Cats travelled to Teesside without a win in 22 Premier League games stretching back to early in the 2002/03 campaign.
They started brightly and were ahead within 90 seconds when Gareth Southgate's attempted clearance fell to Liam Miller, who finished well past Brad Jones.
Sunderland keeper Kelvin Davis, who had come under fire for his first few outings for the Black Cats after joining from Ipswich, put in an inspired display, saving well from James Morrison and Yakubu as the visitors hung on.
A second, clinching goal was then added in controversial circumstances as Howard Webb overruled an offside flag to award Sunderland a free-kick, which was curled home magnificently by Julio Arca.
Middlesbrough 3 Sunderland 0
September 10, 2002 – Premier League
Sunderland succumbed to their first away Premier League defeat of the season, following a 0-0 draw at Blackburn and a 1-0 victory at Leeds.
Massimo Maccarone was the difference between the sides, teaming up well with two-goal Szilard Nemeth to make life tough for Peter Reid's Wearsiders.
Nemeth made the breakthrough in the 17th minute, firing home the rebound after Thomas Sorensen could not hold onto a fierce strike from Maccarone.
The Black Cats fell further behind eight minutes before the break with Maccarone's header, and the Italian set up Nemeth to cleverly chip the ball over Sorensen for the killer third goal midway through the second half.

with the added criteria of balance. Pop on over to the ABAC Challenge at:
http://anythingbutacard.blogspot.ca/ to see how this inspiration has taken the rest of the team.
I decided to take the artistic meaning of balance and designed a yin-yang zen-tangled inspired pattern.
I find this style of doodling quite relaxing and it was a technique I used regularly in my former life as a teacher. The designs the children came up with were always amazing and they were always so engrossed when doing them (this = quiet! always a big plus in the classroom!!)
This design was drawn onto white cardstock. To make sure my pattern was the same both sides, I first outlined the white section and then photocopied the design. The rest of the colour was added to both sides of the design before I put them in place. Even though this looks fiddly, it wasn't really. The only thing I found to be a problem, was when I joined the two pieces together and discovered I still had a small gap! Easily fixed... just added another pattern element. Once all of the drawing and shading was completed, the whole piece was adhered to a canvas which had been prepared by painting with white and black gesso. I used 2 - 3 coats of both to get a good coverage. Stick-on black beads were placed along the white / black border: gave some extra dimension as well as covering any small paint line errors. I used the same idea with the outside of the circle, using larger stick-on pearls. I didn't have any black ones in the size I wanted, so coloured the white ones with a permanent ink pen.
The flowers were cut from a lace paper I've had for years. The other component was chipboard flourishes, again painted with the 2 gessos.
All of the gluing was done with Collage Pauge and this was also used as a sealer over the whole of the canvas. I used a permanent Sharpie pen for the design.
Thank you for visiting. I always love to read your comments. Come over and play with us.
Cheers, Di

Wednesday 22 December 1915 – We Lost 195
by greatwarliveslost
Private William Young (East Lancashire Regiment) has only been back in the trenches a very short time when he performs the deeds for which he will be awarded the Victoria Cross near a position nicknamed "Little Z," east of Foncquevillers, France. Conditions are dreadful – wet December weather has made the trenches virtually a frozen swamp, the situation requiring platoon reliefs every twenty-four hours. As dawn breaks this morning Young looks out over No-Man's land and sees a wounded NCO, a Sergeant Allan, lying in front of the wire. Allan has apparently only made it back that far from a patrol the night before. On his own initiative Young goes through the wire, dodging heavy enemy fire, and goes to Allan's aid. Allan orders Young back to the line without him, but Young ignores the order. As he is pulling Allan to safety, he is hit twice, one bullet shattering his jaw and the other lodging in his chest. Despite the wounds, Young, later joined by a Private Green, manages to get Allan to safety. On his own, he now walks the nearly half-mile back to the dressing station in Foncquevillers to have his wounds tended to. Private Young will die of heart failure at age 40 after an operation next August.
Lieutenant Commander Kenneth James Duff-Dunbar performs actions in attacking and torpedoing a German auxiliary vessel on this day that will result in him being awarded the DSO. The enemy ship is protected by a screen consisting of a torpedo boat, a small sloop, four trawlers and several tugs and small craft. He will be killed in August 1916 when his submarine is sunk through unknown causes.
Today's losses include:
- A Victoria Cross winner
- A man whose brother was killed last May
Today's highlighted casualties include:
- Second Lieutenant Alfred Victor Smith VC (East Lancashire Regiment) is killed at Cape Helles, Gallipoli at age 24. He is in the act of throwing a grenade when it slips from his hand and falls to the bottom of the trench, close to several of our officers and men. He immediately shouts out a warning, and jumps clear and into safety, but seeing that the officers and men are unable to get into cover and knowing well that the grenade is due to explode, he returns without any hesitation and throws himself down on it. He is instantly killed by the explosion. For this act he will be awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross.
- Second Lieutenant Horace Martin Capon Ledger (India Army Reserve of Officers attached French Seaplane Flight) is killed by Arabs in Palestine at age 31. His brother was killed last May.

My group filmed our clips this past weekend. In and of itself the filming was a huge accomplishment, as it not only brought us together as a cohesive group, but also showed how we could overcome challenges as a unit (including a mishap with some cars getting towed, as well as a few audio issues). Another accomplishment was working together on finalizing the script, which was a lot of fun. We already had the bare bones laid out of what we wanted to get across, but getting together as a group and finalizing and running lines was not only fun but also a n exciting challenge.
One of the hurdles I anticipate involves having to rerecord some audio for a voice-over, as since we didn't have any professional-quality recording devices, some of our on-camera audio was too low and we have to record it. My concern is regarding syncing the rerecorded audio to the actual video, though I'm sure we'll figure it out together! Another hurdle will be simply editing the video to make it consistent, professional, and funny. I think finding the perfect music bed for this will be a fun challenge for us!
Some of the tools that we're going to in editing our video, tools that we've explored in this class, include audio editing (such as Garageband) in order to do our voice-overs and edit our existing audio for optimal effect, as well as video editing software to actually piece our video together cohesively. I look forward to finally using all these tools for this finalized, major project, as it will certainly synthesize and put to good use everything that we've learned altogether, and this time as a group team.

Today we had ten to hit the river. For some, it was our second day this week on the water in a canoe. Our destination was the Zumbro River between Theilman and the Kruger Recreation Area.
I am excited to say that we found a patch of blooming Trillium alongside the road to the launch in Theilman.
We got on the water at 2pm. The duff car was dropped and we launched our four boats and piled 10 people into them. Attendess; Me, Shell Dunkin, Danielle Quist, Nate Ramseth, Amy Cielinski, Eldri Snow, Brad, Vanessa, Ben and Anna.
We paddle the swift current through spring squalls. We stopped for a turkey sandwhich on a sandbar. We stopped at the canoe camping spot for a fire and hot dogs.
The water was stained and fast. the only technical parts of this river involved log jams and down trees.
The put-in was gnarly, the take-out was even worse.
The paddle took about four hours. In the home stretch we noticed the right bottom of a rainbow, at the landing we found the other half.
Danielle was the only one to get wet. She fell off the bank at the canoe campground, of which was also very gnarly.
There were many moto bikes cruising the trails and the canoe areas were in poor shape. Our guess is that the bikers take precendence over the boaters in this drainage.
We hunted for morels and found none. None of us fished. We all enjoyed the day.
