Frank Stein started the topic Surviving the Big Data Tsunami in the forum Smarter Government: Analytics to Outcomes 8 years, 1 month ago
At the end of the Superbowl, people created 12,233 tweets per second. And it turns out that was less than half the number of tweets created in Japan on December 9th, when 25,088 tweets per second were recorded about the Castle in the Sky anime movie. Which, according to the Chinese, is nothing compared to the 32,312 messages per second sent on their twitter-like Sina Weibo system during the beginning of the Chinese new year.
Within the government space, we're no strangers to our own Big Data. Whether you're in the DOD or NASA, the IRS or SSA, you've got your own Big Data to deal with.
Last week, Forrester Research released a report that should help those in government understand the Big Data Market. It is called " The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Hadoop Solutions, Q1 2012, (February 2, 2012)" report[1]. IBM Technologies evaluated were IBM InfoSphere BigInsights (IBM's Hadoop-based offering), and IBM Netezza Analytics. In this evaluation, IBM was placed in the Leaders category of the Wave and achieved the highest possible score in both the Strategy and Market Presence segments. In the third segment, Current Offering, IBM received the second highest score. You can download the complete report here.
The report by analyst James Kobielus states, "IBM has the deepest Hadoop platform and application portfolio."
The IBM Analytics Solution Center in Washington, DC also focused on how to handle Big Data at its January 19th seminar. The seminar covered various aspects of Big Data including data-in-motion processing software, Hadoop software, SONAS (Scale Out Network Attached Storage), and the Netezza data warehouse appliance.
1. Big Data in Motion
Going back to the Tweeting, if you're a government agency and you need to get actionable insights into 10s of thousands of tweets per second which might be about an unfolding crisis, how would you do it? InfoSphere Streams is unlike anything else in the market in its ability to ingest, analyze and act on data "in motion" – that is, data is processed and analyzed at microsecond latencies.
2. Hadoop Big Data
Hadoop is an open source codebase supported by the Apache software foundation. It is designed to process large volumes of unstructured data. For example, if a government agency wanted to analyze months of tweets or documents in non-real time, the Hadoop distributed file system would be a good choice. The enterprise class IBM Hadoop-based offering, BigInsights, is designed with system management, security, and performance features that go beyond what is available in the open source. It provides the ability to analyze and extract information from a wide variety of data sources, and promotes data exploration and discovery.
Network Attached Storage, or NAS, has become a very popular way to provide storage within an organization. However NAS has a number of limitations when dealing with Big Data including the number of objects (files) it can support, support for very large files, the i/o bandwidth it can deliver to applications, and fragmented data management across multiple systems. The IBM SONAS system is designed to overcome these limitations and look like a very large virtual system to the applications.
4. Data Warehouse Appliance
Traditional data warehouses when used for large volumes of structured data can be costly to operate and maintain, and can be very slow when used for sophisticated analysis. The Netezza appliance is a dedicated device requiring no tuning or storage administration and with special hardware chips to accelerate the performance of advanced analytics.

Waterfront Plan Work Group Members Appointed
On July 11, Mayor William D. Euille appointed seven members to form the Waterfront Plan Work Group, based upon recommendations submitted by City Council members. In late June, the City Council adopted a resolution establishing the work group to identify Plan consensus areas. The group is also charged with defining, categorizing, and narrowing differences on the concerns that residents have raised about the Plan. An outside facilitator has been selected to lead the group through the Workgroup meetings, which are public and will be posted at alexandriava.gov/Waterfront . The following individuals were appointed:
- Christopher Ballard, principal at McWilliams Ballard, a residential real estate and marketing firm focused on the East Coast.
- Bert Ely, head of Ely and Company, a financial institutions and monetary policy consulting firm.
- Mindy Lyle, Vice President Client Development, Haley & Aldrich, Inc.
- Elliot Rhodeside, Principal, Rhodeside & Harwell, a firm offering urban planning and landscape design with a focus on revitalization and sustainability.
- Nate Macek, a transportation consultant representing the Waterfront Committee.
- David Olinger, realtor, Senior Foreign Service Officer (Ret.) with a background in urban planning, representing the Old Town Civic Association.
- Lt. Gen Bob Wood (ret), who served as the Army's senior strategic planner in developing and implementing the Army's strategic response plan for combating worldwide terrorism in the wake of 9/11.
- City Councilman Paul Smedberg, who will serve as a non-voting City Council representative and convener of the Work Group.
The first Workgroup meeting was held July 27, and video from the meeting has been posted to alexandriava.gov/Waterfront . In addition to the video, a comprehensive, updated copy of the Plan, fact sheets, and related copies of documents, meeting summaries, maps, public presentations and meeting schedule are now available on the site.
BRAC-133 News Update
Employee Move-in Schedule: The BRAC (Base Realignment and Closure) -133 project will begin moving employees into the Mark Center building this week. According to the proposed schedule, approximately 2,300 employees will move in between now and September 15, 2011; 2,500 employees between September 15, 2011 and December 31, 2011; and 1,600 employees by December 31, 2012. While the Department of Defense will not release the actual week-by-week planned move-in numbers, it is likely that the employee move-in will be conducted in relatively equal weekly levels.
Transit News: Alexandria's DASH and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority's Metro bus systems started new routes to provide additional service to Mark Center. DASH is adding a new express route providing service from the King Street Metro directly to Mark Center. Metro will add service between the Pentagon and Mark Center, and some DoD employees may be able to ride free by showing their Mark Center identification card. The federal government is paying 100% of these new bus route costs, as well as for additional shuttle service.
Emergency Management: To train for public safety and emergency response at the Mark Center building, the City has been invited to participate in a Pentagon senior policy level exercise series and is making plans for an internal exercise. The exercises will focus on 1) incident command and control, and 2) understanding the emergency operations center interface for large scale incidents.
VDOT Mark Center Task Force: On August 8, Governor Robert F. McDonnell announced that the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will establish a new task force and implement a traffic management plan to closely monitor traffic impacts, help manage delays and coordinate increased transit service near Mark Center. Alexandria will have representatives participating on the new task force.

City Receives International Recognition for Use of GIS Technology
The City of Alexandria and other members of a Northern Virginia partnership were named winners of a Special Achievement in GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Award. The award was presented at the Environmental Systems Research Institute's (ESRI) International User Conference in July.
The City of Alexandria, along with Arlington, Loudoun, Fairfax, and Prince William counties and the Virginia Geographic Information Network, are being recognized for the Northern Virginia Regional Road Centerline Project. The partnership was selected for the award from more than 300,000 organizations worldwide. ESRI makes the award to organizations that have made significant contributions and advancements through geography and "have used GIS to improve our world – and set new precedents throughout the GIS community."
This project helps ensure emergency vehicles will be directed along the most efficient routes when responding to calls, both within the City and when supporting our neighbors in the neighboring Northern Virginia counties. In addition, while this data was built to serve public safety needs, it will have many other GIS applications.
The Northern Virginia Regional Road Centerline Project was funded by a grant from the Virginia Information Technologies Agency's E-911 Services Board.

Alexandria Named One of the Nation's "Most Livable" Cities
The City of Alexandria and the Partnership for a Healthier Alexandria have been awarded Honorable Mention in the 2011 City Livability Awards, sponsored by the U.S. Conference of Mayors and Waste Management, Inc. The award recognizes mayoral leadership in developing and implementing programs that improve the quality of life in America's cities, focusing on the leadership, creativity, and innovation demonstrated by the mayors. This year's winning cities were selected by former mayors from a pool of over 200 applicants.
The Partnership for a Healthier Alexandria is a citizen-led coalition of non-profit organizations, schools, city agencies, local businesses, local foundations, government and community leaders, and concerned citizens joined together to promote and preserve a healthy Alexandria community.
For more information on the Partnership for a Healthier Alexandria, contact Carrie Fesperman Redden at 703.746.4914 or
The Signs, They Are A-Changin' (Slowly)
Here and there, new street signs are popping up in the city—signs once lettered in all uppercase letters are being changed to "mixed case"—in response to a new federal mandate. The reason for this change is that mixed case lettering with the first letter being uppercase in every word was found to be more interpretable by motorists than all-uppercase lettering.
These new requirements can be found in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices , a set of standards published by the Federal Highway Administration. All states are required to follow the standards in this publication to ensure uniformity of traffic control devices across the country. The change will be gradual. Like many municipalities, the City will only be following the new requirement standards for signs that need to be replaced due to damage and old age.
Public Input Sought By Ad Hoc Retirement Benefits Advisory Group
The Ad Hoc Retirement Benefits Advisory Group, appointed by City Council in January 2011, is charged with evaluating the current structure and status of the retirement benefits programs offered to City of Alexandria employees. The City Council asked the Group to make its evaluation using the criteria of: protection of established benefits, competitiveness with neighboring jurisdictions, encouragement of employee retirement savings, the advantages and disadvantages of defined benefit versus defined contribution retirement plans, and present and future fiscal sustainability of any existing or recommended retirement benefit program(s).
As part of its duties, the Group must provide the City Council with a written report of its recommendations by November 2011. In preparation for drafting this report, the Advisory Group is seeking public feedback. Any feedback provided should be based on the information made available to the Group during its meetings, and all materials are available online. The Group will consider all feedback; however, feedback taking into account the City Council's evaluation criteria will be most useful to the report's development.
Public comment and feedback must be submitted by September 4, 2011. Visit https://www.alexandriava.gov/45962 for more information.
Rebuilding Homes, Rebuilding Lives
"To bring volunteers, communities, and resources together to improve the homes and lives of Alexandrians in need" is the mission of Rebuilding Together Alexandria.
Rebuilding Together is a non-profit dedicated to preserving affordable homeownership by repairing and revitalizing homes—free of cost—for those in need, including (but certainly not limited to) the elderly, persons with disabilities, military veterans, and families. One such homeowner, Ms. H., couldn't maintain her home and yard, so she was evicted until it could be brought up to code. Many of our volunteers worked numerous hours and she was able to move back home! Over the past 25 years, in-kind donations of labor and materials have resulted in almost $5.3 million worth of value on nearly 1,300 properties. Last year, Rebuilding Together repaired 102 homes with over 1,000 volunteers.
Whether you are a homeowner looking to apply for home assistance at no cost to you, or an active citizen who would like to volunteer to help a neighbor stay in their home—please contact us with any questions or to see if you qualify for our services by calling 703.836.1021 or visiting our website www.RebuildingTogetherAlex.org .

Posted: Sep 13, 2004
PLYMOUTH, N.H. - Four Plymouth State University student-athletes were on the receiving end of recognition Monday as the Little East Conference announced the first round of weekly honors.
Junior Lilly Silva (Lowell, Mass.) was named Field Hockey Offensive Player of the Week; Junior Hayley Quinones (Waitsfield, Vt.) was selected Women's Soccer Defensive Player of the Week; Junior Rachel Xavier (Meredith, N.H.) was named Women's Tennis Player of the Week; and junior Kelly Landry (Nashua, N.H.) was selected LEC Women's Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week.
Silva guided the Panther field hockey team to wins in two of its
first three games this season, scoring five goals and one assist.
She tallied one goal in a 7-1 win at Thomas College, added two
goals and an assist in a 7-1 win at Castleton State, and
contributed both PSU goals in a tough 3-2 loss to Springfield.
Silva was a First Team All-LEC selection last season.
Quinones has helped the PSU women's soccer team to a 3-0-0 start to
the season. She allowed only one goal while making three saves in
45 minutes of relief action against Emmanuel, and posted
back-to-back shutouts in Panther victories over Norwich (4-0) and
Saint Joseph's (1-0). Quinones finished the week with eight saves
and a 0.40 goals against average.
Xavier has registered a perfect 4-0 record for the Panther women's
tennis team. She was victorious at No. 5 singles and No. 3 doubles
in a setback to Wheaton College, and moved up in the line-up to
capture wins at No. 3 singles and #2 doubles in PSU's LEC victory
over UMass Dartmouth. Xavier captured the LEC title at No. 4
singles last season.
Landry has led the PSU women's volleyball team to a 7-1 start to
the season. She was named Most Valuable Player when Plymouth State
captured its own tournament, the Best Inn Invitational, and was a
strong force as the Panthers advanced to the title match of the
Western New England College Invitational. A two-time First Team
All-LEC selection, Landry registered 94 kills, 18 service aces and
a team-leading .310 attack percentage in the first eight matches
this season.

Nouria Bah
Class of 2011
Major/Minor: Anthropology, Ethnomusicology
Nouria Bah '11 has traveled the globe—literally—in pursuit of her anthropology major and ethnomusicology minor. It began with a study abroad program in South Africa and culminated in a prestigious internship at Smithsonian Folkways in Washington, DC.
Smithsonian Folkways is the nonprofit record label of the Smithsonian Institution, the national museum of the United States. Nouria is working within Folkway's mission: "supporting cultural diversity and increased understanding among peoples through the documentation, preservation, and dissemination of sound."
"There's a vast amount of music at Smithsonian Folkways, and I'm learning how the staff has used what they love in their work—and how to apply my love of ethnomusicology to the real world," says Nouria. "It's opening up a lot of doors for me."
Nouria worked with the college's Career Center and applied for the internship with help from Professor Jonathan McCollum, assistant professor of music, who has consulted for Smithsonian Folkways.
As an intern, Nouria works directly with the marketing, sales and online teams, as well as with the associate director on projects related to licensing and royalties. "Marketing has included sending out promo CDs, writing abstracts plus archiving and documenting track names," Nouria explains.
Preparing for "Muslim World Music Day" has allowed her to access databases for a live online collaborative program with libraries, cultural organizations, collectors, fans, scholars, artists and the recording industry. The goal is to catalog and celebrate Muslim music.
"This internship at Smithsonian Folkways has introduced me to career opportunities related to cultural anthropology and ethnomusicology," Nouria says.
Nouria's interest in music and international relations first led her to a Washington College exchange program at Rhodes University in South Africa where she studied anthropology and ethnomusicology her sophomore year.
As a junior, Nouria traveled to Peru for a month-long summer program, "Ethnomusicology and Andean Cultural Project," where she studied the changing use of instruments and electronics in three distinct cultural-geographical areas of that country.
Finally, she chose to study the prominence of hip-hop through artists, producers and fans in Senegal, Africa (where her parents had relocated) for her Senior Capstone project, entitled "The Effects of Colonization & Globalization on Hip-Hop in Senegal."
From Africa to her latest internship, Nouria has learned she can go almost anywhere from here.

Public is asked to return Feb. 26; commission hears from Walmart representatives and city planners
It was after 11 p.m., but about 100 people remained in the commission chambers. The residents knew they were not going to find out Tuesday night whether Walmart would be their new neighbor.
But they hung on — heads cradled in hands, yawns stifled — as architects, attorneys and planners made their technical cases for and against a small superstore on the edge of downtown.
The appeal of a Walmart planned for the current location of the Ringling Shopping Center has caught the attention of many community members.
Some want a cheaper place to buy groceries, while others brought signs like, "No Walmart on Ringling in Sarasota" to Tuesday's meeting. There, the five commissioners heard from appellants, Walmart representatives and city staff who worked with the company as it came up with a plan for the 24-hour store.
The laborious debate had two prongs — one was a technical zoning disagreement that pitted the opinion of Tim Litchet, director of Neighborhoods and Development, against Mike Taylor, a recently retired manager and planner in the department and zoning expert with the city for 30 years. The other debate was between Walmart and neighbors who said the 24-hour big box store would not blend into the area and would bring traffic and noise.
The representatives for the store said it had worked with city staff and held a community meeting to gather input on its design for the store.
"Walmart has gone out of their way to design this in a sensitive manner," land use planner Susan Finch said.
It made several alterations and created a plan that architect Michael Blinn said differed from your typical Walmart, with a beige color scheme, landscaping and lots of natural light indoors. The store also will control noise and light, city staff said.
Walmart's attorney Jim Porter urged the commission to compare images of what they had planned and the current Ringling Shopping Center site.
The center was built in the 1950s and has slowly lost tenants, with Publix — its anchor store — departing in 2011. Ace Hardware is the lone shop remaining in the small strip mall, its neighbors empty storefronts.
Trevor Harvey, president of the local branch of the NAACP, was one of many who wrote to commissioners ahead of the meeting in support of the project.
"While politics and procedure often overshadow good intentions, it's important that we not lose sight of the fact that bringing Wal-Mart into the heart of downtown would bring not only economic opportunity but community partnership," Harvey wrote in an email.
In another message to city officials, prominent entrepreneur Jesse Biter characterized Walmart opponents as the "loud minority" and said most people think the store would revitalize the rundown shopping center.
Those opposing the store appeared to be the majority at the City Commission meeting, where comments from Walmart officials elicited sarcastic laughs from the crowd and Taylor's argument was met with hearty applause.
Taylor said the city's regulations state that if the shopping center is razed, only structures smaller than 15,000-square-feet should replace it.
The head of the department he worked in, Tim Litchet, said Taylor made a "major error" and picked and chose sections of the zoning code that benefited his argument. He assured commissioners that Walmart could raze the current mall and replace it with the planned 98,000-square foot store.
Public weighs in
Several members of the Alta Vista Neighborhood Association and people who live and work near the proposed store appealed the plan. They filed the appeal at the end of November, after the city's Planning Board voted 3-2 to allow the proposal to move forward.
Thirty-four people filed forms with the city as affected persons, with former Mayor Kelly Kirschner at the top of the list. Kirschner, a neighborhood activist who landed on the political radar in 2006 when he fought the development of high-rise condos in Alta Vista, has been at the forefront of the Walmart appeal process. On his affected person form, Kirschner wrote that he lives near the shopping center and the greatly increased traffic will degrade the quality and safety of the street and lower his property value.
He has implored the city to focus on zoning, not on the opinions surrounding the situation.
But with hundreds of emails and calls funneling into City Hall for weeks, ignoring the fray is difficult.
About 70 people signed an online petition against the Walmart plan and forwarded their reasoning, like 24-hour traffic or a dislike of big box stores, to commissioners.
Walmart spokesman William Wertz said the company had people call Sarasotans and ask if they supported the project. Residents who received those calls said they were forwarded to City Hall to voice their support.
Forty people interested in speaking directly to the City Commission signed up to talk Tuesday, as well as four affected people. They were asked to come back Feb. 26 at 6 p.m., when the commissioners will meet again to make a determination.

• A daily summary of global reports on security issues.
Egypt's parliament reconvened today in defiance of the order for its dissolution, though it quickly adjourned in a move that could mitigate the potential discord between recently inaugurated President Mohammed Morsi and the military.
Al Jazeera reports that the parliamentary session lasted only five minutes, beginning after a brief speech from Speaker Saad al-Katatni of the Muslim Brotherhood, who said that the legislative body had gathered only "to review the court rulings, the ruling of the Supreme Constitutional Court." Last month the court declared the parliament invalid, prompting Egypt's interim military leaders to dissolve the legislature.
"I want to stress, we are not contradicting the ruling, but looking at a mechanism for the implementation of the ruling of the respected court. There is no other agenda today," he added.
Mr. Katatni then proposed that parliament seek help from an appeals court in implementing the Supreme Court ruling. Parliament approved Katatni's proposal and adjourned. Ahram Online reports that parliament's decision to defer to the courts is being seen as a "possible compromise between the Muslim Brotherhood and Military Council, thus staving off what looked to be a serious constitutional and political crisis."
Parliament will not meet again until the appeals court gives its verdict, according to Ahram Online.
The brief, perfunctory nature of the session appears to at least temporarily put the brakes on the collision course that the military and President Morsi had been on. Morsi's order revoking the dissolution of the parliament directly challenged the military's authority in "a bold and significant step," Khalil al-Anani, an expert on Islamist movements at Durham University, told the Monitor. "...This decree reflects Morsi's sense of self-assertiveness and confidence," he said. "The question is to what extent Morsi can defy the military and challenge their power."
Morsi's order to reconvene the parliament prompted the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) to hold emergency meetings over the past two days to determine how to respond. And the Supreme Court declared yesterday that its June 14 ruling was final and binding. In addition, Ahram Online reports that yesterday the Judges' Club, an unofficial body of Egyptian jurists, threatened Morsi with legal action should he not revoke his order within 36 hours.
But even in convening parliament, the president and his Muslim Brotherhood allies appear to be paying lip service to the Supreme Court's ruling. Acting presidential spokesman Yasser Ali said today that Morsi's reinstatement of parliament was not in conflict with the order, but was necessary to determine how to comply, according to the Egypt State Information Service.
Monique El-Faizy, a project leader at the World Policy Institute, told CNN that she thought a full-blown conflict between Morsi and the military was unlikely, and that both sides would step carefully. "I think it's the delicate balancing act that we're going to see for a while," said Ms. El-Faizy. "This is all new. Everybody's finding their way."
Reuters reports that US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called upon the Egyptian president and the military to come to a negotiated agreement to avoid losing what progress has been made in Egypt.
"We strongly urge dialogue and concerted effort on the part of all to try to deal with the problems that are understandable but have to be resolved in order to avoid any kind of difficulties that could derail the transition that is going on," Clinton told a news conference. ...
She called for "intense dialogue" among all participants "to ensure that there is a clear path for them to be following and that the Egyptian people get what they protested for and what they voted for, which is a fully elected government".

Jayco, Inc. was founded in 1968 by a man of strong faith and vision. The late Lloyd J. Bontrager, family man and inventor, felt he could build the world a better RV. He longed to create a company of his own, one that clearly reflected his ideals: a company where everyone would be treated as "family".
With encouragement from his wife Bertha, Lloyd started Jayco on their farm--in two chicken houses and a barn! He developed his own prototype camping trailer and a unique lifter system for fold-down campers, the basic design of which is patented and still in use today. By the end of 1968, his fledging company of 15 employees had sold 132 fold-down camping trailers.
Today, Jayco's "family" of employees has grown to nearly 1,500 people, while more than 25,000 people join our "extended family" of customers each year.
At Jayco, our mission statement is: Committed to being the most respected name in recreation vehicles. We will consistently build a high quality, high value, competitively priced product at acceptable margins, treat every situation with the highest level of integrity in a timely manner, and continually work to reduce total cost to achieve acceptable returns.

Kimberly Coates, Mojo Global B2B Marketing Manager and Lead Generation Consultant, helps business owners and professionals fill their calendars each day with hot, warm, and future leads. Mojo has developed a 100% Done For You System that awards it's clients with more selling conversations and eliminates time and money wasted on cold calls and emails.
Kimberly Coates, B2B Lead Generation Manager for Mojoglobal.com presents a 100% Done for You Lead Generation System to affluent business owners and professionals all over the world.. The money-making system was developed by Mojo Global founders Ira Rosen and Cory Michael Sanchez, both highly respected and award-winning marketers from Scottsdale, Arizona.
Coates stated "The 100% Done For You Lead Generation System gets, both the business owner and professional, additional sales conversations each month. And the best part is that there is a team of highly skilled lead generation professionals working behind the scenes to produce hot, warm and in-discussion leads. All our clients must do is schedule a phone, or in person appointment and close the deal. This program is a tremendous time and money saver for those sharp enough to take advantage of it."
Mojo Global recognized that it is getting more difficult to get in front of targeted prospects for your products and services. The average business owner is bombarded with literally thousands of messages each day, making it very difficult to be seen and heard. And this trend will continue as technology improves.
According to Coates, "Mojo's solution to getting past the gatekeepers and getting in front of the decision makers is to use a proprietary system using a client's LinkedIn account to introduce, invite, and offer products and services with a daily stream of customized messages. This is a manual system and each client has a team working for him/her to get the leads."
At a recent networking conference, Ira Rosen, Mojo Global founder, gave a short interview on the benefits of this 100% Done For You Lead Service. Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUk1-CmEK-8
In addition, both Ira Rosen and Cory Michael Sanchez, Mojo Global founders, noted that the reason they developed their Done For You Lead Generation Program around LinkedIn is because LinkedIn, according to both Forbes and Fortune magazine, is the most affluent source of lead generation on the planet. LinkedIn average income $112k per year vs. Facebook only $62k per year.
"If you did this yourself, it would take you four to six hours every day, and you would not get much else done," stated Coates.
Kimberly is an entrepreneur who uses her business skills to help her clients make money and have more free time with Mojo's 100% Done For You System.
