A federal contractors' group looking to influence GSA's efforts to overhaul the pricing structure for goods and services under the agency's Multiple Award Schedule contracts says some pricing rules can be particularly damaging to IT services.
One of the biggest issues with the schedule contracts is that federal contractors have to disclose commercial pricing policies and practices, said Roger Waldron, president of the Coalition for Government Procurement. The price reduction clause in MAS contracts requires vendors that provide discounts to private-sector customers to give the same price break to government buyers.
Read the Coalition for Government Procurement's white paper.
Waldron said that dynamic was designed for a time before today's fast-moving, competitive IT market and impedes IT contractors and federal customers alike.
Waldron's group released a new white paper on GSA's schedule pricing policies on Sept. 16 in hopes of advancing efforts by the agency to rewrite its rules. GSA has been reworking the pricing rules for schedule contracts in the last two years or so, said Waldron, recognizing that markets -- especially IT services -- have changed dramatically since they were implemented in the early 1980s.
The paper lists several suggestions for changes, but Waldron said in an interview that the price reduction clause is one of the most problematic issues for IT vendors. Because the provision requires companies to disclose to federal buyers the discounts they give to private-sector customers, IT service and gear providers sometimes don't make their latest technology available through federal schedules. The cost to build the infrastructure to track pricing for services and IT gear sold via thousands of private contracts is too costly to justify, he said.
According to the white paper, professional services are now the largest part of the GSA's schedules program and have been disproportionately hurt by a "static MAS pricing policy."

It in nonsense to require that antiquated concept - if a store in Iowa cannot sell certain items they discount them to clear their shelves - under the FAARs forever that same price should now be retroactively applied to that product. Likewise, in industry to make a sale to a customer you might sweeten the pot exactly the same way to clear out old inventory to a customer still using those devices and even use it as a loss leader as part of a much larger sale or even the salesman forgo their commission on that piece part - then the company could be subject to fines and penalties and possible criminal prosecution for not giving that same price to ALL government clients forever and retroactively. It is best price PERIOD with no consideration for conditions and no time factors.
For most companies the federal government is the single largest customer. As the largest customer, we should probably get the best price for any commodity item that you sell to us. This paper is a foolish and veiled attempt to drive profit at the taxpayers' expense.
The companies that are members of this trade association would be better served by considering how this type of white paper will be received by your biggest customer. You can see a list of the members here: http://thecgp.org/member-companies.
"One of the biggest issues with the schedule contracts is that federal contractors have to disclose commercial pricing policies and practices" Really? Contract compnies would prefer not to verify that the citizens of the US getting the appropriate discounts? If the cost of doing business with the gov't is too high, then the companies will leave. It is a business decision. The policy, as it stands, insures that the tax payers are getting the proper costing.

White Google Nexus S hands-on
The world loves a shiny white smartphone and it seems that both Google and Vodafone are aware of this as together they bring the exclusive that is the white Google Nexus S Android phone.
Rocking the Gingerbread version the open source mobile OS, the pretty handset has been snapped up the UK's Newbury-based operator and should be hitting the shelves within a handful of weeks. While the prices on the white Nexus S haven't been worked out yet, Pocket-lint has got its hands on one and this is what it's like.
Funnily enough, sitting on its back, it looks almost no different to the standard Nexus S. The entire front surface is the same one piece, edge-to-edge glass covering that 4-inch Super AMOLED display and, yep, it's still all black. However, get a profile view or pick the thing up and your eyes are met with a very attractive, lightly spotted white gloss chassis.
The weight of the device belies what is a premium look and feel as you realise that it's a plastic build. All the same, it's no less appealing to use and hold. While you might initially feel that you've been done, given that the front surface is the same old black, there's a nice surprise when you open the Nexus S up and find out that the white finish isn't just skin deep.
The hardware configurations and buttons are just the same as before with lines so smooth and an appearance so minimal that it's actually quite hard to work out where the on button is until you discover it. Other than that, the only other blemishes on the body are the single strip volume rocker control, the micro USB connector on the bottom edge and the 3.5mm jack next to it, and the phone is delightfully finished off with a elegant curve giving it the most subtle version of the "chin" made famous by the G1, HTC Hero et al.
The bottom line is that we'd rather not have given it back. It might not have that assurance that comes with HTC's all metal bodies but, my, it's pretty and the exclusive colour is the icing on the cake.

Motorcyclist killed Wednesday on Pine Road
Published: Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 9:41 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 9:43 a.m.
SILVER SPRINGS SHORES - A motorcyclist was killed on Pine Road at Midway Terrace on Wednesday evening when an oncoming truck made a left turn in front of the bike, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report.
Wayne Horan, 43, of Ocala, was killed.
According to the FHP, Horan was driving 2003 Harley-Davidson motorcycle northbound on Pine Road at about 8:15 p.m. when the crash occurred.
Charles E. Long, 52, of Ocala, turned a 2007 GMC pickup truck in front of Horan, who tried to take evasive action, according to the report. The motorcycle slammed into the side of the truck, and Horan, who was not wearing a helmet, was ejected onto the roadway.
He was pronounced dead at Munroe Regional Medical Center at 10:06 p.m.
Long was not injured.

Grilled Tempeh Salad with Sesame-Ginger Dressing

This bold sesame-ginger dressing recipe is perfect with this salad of grilled tempeh, pineapple and crisp snow peas. If you can't find mixed Asian greens, try another spicy green, such as arugula.

- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 3 tablespoons white miso (see Tips)
- 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 1-inch piece fresh ginger, grated
- 1-2 teaspoons Asian hot sauce
- 1 8-ounce package tempeh (see Tips)
- 6 pineapple rings, 1/4 inch thick
- 12 cups greens, preferably Asian mix
- 1 cup sliced trimmed snow peas or snap peas
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Whisk orange juice, miso, sesame oil, vinegar, ginger and hot sauce in a bowl.
- Oil the grill rack (see Tips). Grill tempeh until lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Grill pineapple until marked, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Put salad greens and peas in a large bowl. Coarsely chop the pineapple; add to the bowl. Drizzle the salad with 1/2 cup of the dressing; toss to coat. Divide among 4 plates or bowls. Thinly slice the tempeh and place in the bowl. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and gently toss to coat. Divide the tempeh among the salads and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Tips & Notes
- Tips: Miso is a fermented soybean paste that adds flavor to dishes like soups, sauces and salad dressings. White or sweet miso (Shiromiso), made with soy and rice, is yellow and milder in flavor; use for soup, salad dressings and sauces for fish or chicken. Look for it near tofu at well-stocked supermarkets. It will keep in the refrigerator for at least a year.
- Tempeh is a chewy, nutty, fermented soybean loaf. Find it (plain or with added grains) near refrigerated tofu in natural-foods stores and most large supermarkets.
- Oiling a grill rack before you grill foods helps ensure that the food won't stick. Oil a folded paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub it over the rack. (Do not use cooking spray on a hot grill.) When grilling delicate foods like tofu and fish, it is helpful to coat the food with cooking spray.

Want to Review a Different Internship?
4.3 of 5 stars
Sacramento, CA
Working on the on-going projects and quality of work. Not side-lined with some irrelevant work as an Intern.
Compensation and bonuses.
The company does some of the best work in the world. They are the pioneers and excellent work environment.
I found this review helpful (0)

Other (US)
Your biggest problem will be making your code work with the system
make set up go faster.
Portland, OR
Being exposed to real projects that would be used in the future.
Work was sometime very tedious and sometimes not very hands on.
Network a ton! You'll likely find somewhere else you can work within the company if you don't like your current work.
I really enjoy the people I work with. My team is very supportive of each other and are genuinely nice people.
Poor organization, minimal direction, simple job.
Try to get more details about daily tasks you will be performing to make an educated assessment of whether you want to join that team.
Don't hire college graduates, especially with an engineering degree. This job is very basic and could be done with a humanities degree.
4.4 of 5 stars
Respect of my mentors and peers was the best aspect. So often in school you are treated like dirt. You are herded through undergraduate studies and then you leave college with a large amount of debt and mental anguish. Since in this internship my opinion matters and my thoughts actually impacted development it taught me to choose my words carefully and contribute precisely whereas school teaches you to scream as loud as you can until someone is annoyed enough to listen.
Everything is fantastic. Learning the culture was difficult at first but after six months you understand it fairly well.
If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding internship I highly recommend Intel Corporation. We do everything from microprocessors to autonomous vehicle research.
Compensation was low for the level of responsibility I was operating at. My peers say I "Run programs like an E5 engineer" if this is true I should be compensated for this level of responsibility. There are no performance evaluations and no focals. So we never get feedback on long term internships like mine (3 years.)
San Jose, CA
The flexible hours; the people I worked with; other interns and how much fun they were.
Some of the projects could have been more exciting.
Intel might seem to be an 'older' company, but it really is great for a company in Silicon Valley. There are tons of opportunities here even if you aren't interested in hardware. Their software component is growing and will be more and more important in the future.
Have a more structured intern program with many more organized events and many more chances for interns to meet each other. One intern (my roommate) ended up organizing most of the events because the actual intern coordinator was based in Oregon. While she was nice, she wasn't really available to schedule things all the time.
Technical trainer/help- I was given a buddy and a technical trainer at the beginning of my internship and they never were too busy to meet with me. always willing to help and were great people to work with. I admire all that they do for the company and their families. Group- I loved my group. We did things outside of work together and had a lot of fun. I never felt put down or inferior even as an intern. Real-life experience- I actually felt like what I was doing was important and I got a good sense of how work really is. I'm a student so it was nice to see corporation life. Networking
I didn't like that I was mobile. I didn't have my own desk to leave stuff at but I was given a locker and an area to work at. Althought I worked there every day, it technically wans't mine and I had to clean it off every day. I carried my laptop and cord everywhere instead of just leaving all my cords there. It was nice to have a locker but I would have prefered to have a desk.
FANTASTIC company to work for. You set your own schedule and take on what you can. Great people and flexibility. Always changing- never a dull moment.
Get rid of smoke shacks around RA
Diverse environment with a full immersion; always an opportunity to learn; easy to network and get yourself out there
Some political play that you need to be wary of; just as easy to be stagnant as it is to progress and learn
Emphasize your will to learn and grow. Experience helps, but it is more about adaptability and learning potential with creative applications of acquired knowledge.
Run more checks on some of the management. There are some that made it a poor environment to work at. 3 others and myself left our contracts early to avoid working under this individual any further. Only 1 poor experience though, I've been very happy with my new group.
Phoenix, AZ
- Being treated like a full time employee and enjoying some full time employee benefits- Working with the latest and greatest Intel hardware- The sheer diversity of work that is done
- The monotony of some of the tasks involved with benchmarking (waiting for computers to boot, running the same tests over and over to get data)
Make sure you are comfortable with command line Linux coming into the internship, and that you have some scripting language knowledge.
Everyone here is very approachable and for the most part, easy to talk to. I think communication is one of those important pieces that most people take light of and it really helps to accomplish my work. Also, there is always constant change, which grows to challenge me as an individual.
My learning style preference is to have clear direction in meeting the goals. Sometimes, I do not have that clear direction. However this enables a challenge for me to navigate on my own to figure out how to do things on my own. If I really feel stuck, my manager is helpful in assisting me to bridge my gaps.
Get outside of your comfort zone. While in school, you can go through a rigorous material that is focused in one subject. However, during your internship you will experience how many people from different backgrounds work together to accomplish goals. If your able to step outside your comfort zone and assist where needed, I think it would help to make you stand outside the crowd when your applying for a full-time regular position.

Bandmates put out debut album as Twin Brother
Musician Sean Raasch's toughest critic may be himself.
"We treated it as a hobby and didn't work hard enough," the local singer-songwriter said of his former alternative rock duo, Jackraasch, with drummer Tyler Nelson. "And in terms of songwriting, I felt like I fell short before. I was never happy." »Read Full Article
Kaskade, fans relish rare, intimate DJ set at Oak Lounge
DJ Kaskade probably could have sold out the Rave's 3,500-person-capacity Eagles Ballroom Friday. Instead, he played the intimate Oak Lounge for a couple hundred people.
It was the last stop of the Redux tour, a 12-show run that took the electronic dance music star to tiny clubs — and cities like Milwaukee and El Paso, Texas, instead of Chicago, New York or Los Angeles. Kaskade has said the tour was intended to recapture the vibe of his club gigs 10 years ago, before his mega-popularity, "when it was all about the music." »Read Full Article
Skylight Music Theatre shows why 'Hair' is still vital
Here's what's truly obscene: Nearly 50 years after the revolution called "Hair," we still struggle with its chaste nude scene — even as we casually absorb nightly images of dead bodies from the world's killing fields.
That's why "Hair" remains vitally relevant, as is clearer than ever in Skylight Music Theatre's stirring production, which opened Friday under the direction of Ray Jivoff (stage) and Viswa Subbaraman (music). Much as I liked the touring version of the Broadway revival that stopped here in 2011, this "Hair" is even better. »Read Full Article(2)
Rodriguez returns from obscurity with sold-out show
Neglected genius, comeback kid, amiable relic: the 71-year-old singer-songwriter onstage at the Riverside Theater Friday night embodied all those personae.
Sixto Diaz Rodriguez, known by fans simply as Rodriguez, had been an erased footnote in the United States, even in his home city of Detroit. Unknown to him, his music had become wildly popular in South Africa, and the 2008 and 2009 reissues of his two LPs — 1970's "Cold Fact" and 1971's "Coming From Reality" — and the award-festooned 2012 documentary "Searching for Sugar Man" made powerful arguments against his obscurity. »Read Full Article

Passing The Friend Test
by Sharalyn Hartwell on Aug 26, 8:01 AM
In dating, the friend test -- how well you mesh with your new flame's friends -- is critical to the future of your relationship. For marketers targeting Generation Y, the friend test may be just as significant.

How Retailers Can Win Over Consumers
by Patrick Evans on Aug 19, 8:34 AM
Gen Y consumers will change how retailers operate. Stores will focus on becoming "user friendly," product ranges will dwindle and retention of staff will become a key factor in the success of retail operations. Retailers have the chance to make changes now to grab Gen Y dollars and follow the example set by leading youth brands like Apple, Chipotle, Scion, and H&M.

'90s Nostalgia: Millennials Long For Simpler Times
by Melanie Shreffler on Aug 12, 6:42 AM
Taco Bell is speaking Millennials' language with its latest campaign for its steak burritos; the ad tells guys it's perfectly acceptable to still want Taco Bell (no doubt a staple of their teen years) even if they can afford dinner at a steakhouse. It doesn't make them any less grown-up to still like the things they did when they were thirteen.

Multiple Personality Order

Tournaments / Re: 2013 Kansas City Team Challenge« on: May 04, 2013, 05:58:03 pm »
Man this thread hurts to read. Worst trash talk ever by both sides.
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
You know it is a tough league when the guy who finished 9th out of 126 advanced golfers at the GBO can only place 10th out of 11 in his own league.
Let's not forget about peter B cashing in at 9th. ....and for hitting the best western sign....twice??
Can I ask why we don't use a temporary teepad on top of the hill and throw towards the basket on the peninsula (like when things were under construction).
That way we can still utilize the pin placement on the hill, which is always tough to get close to safely.
Apparently Prairie Center summer league is no more. As such, no qualifier for West Team will be held there. I will announce an alternative shortly.

It must be the best place to stay in Bratislava. With a completely new building, a modern and warm interiors, spacious and minimalistic design, this hotel is placed just a few steps of the old town and not far from the central train station as well as from the docks at the danube and the bus station.
Enjoy walking through the old town's passages and towers or enjoy the view from the castle just 10 walking minutes away.
The staff at the hotel was welcoming and complacient and they speak good english, which is important since not everyone on the street will understand you.
The rooms are clean, spacious and decorated with a good taste. Also a good free Internet access is available (should be a must in any hotel).
I would say the best option in Bratislava, even better than the big Crowne Plaza which is just 30 steps away.

Seen & Heard at CES 2013: 'Nobody THINKS They Want a Yanni Demo'
Yanni does Playtime. I wonder if Kaleidescape has this track bookmarked.
So he went for a demo reel that you might not expect in an industry that prides itself on being hip: "Yanni's Playtime" from the album "Ethnicity."
When I told Richard I did not need to see or hear his Yanni demo he said, "Nobody thinks they want a Yanni demo until they get my Yanni demo."
Classic Richard.
Here, a few integrators from Utah Audio crack up at the demo, but all agreed it was a great choice.
VIDEO: Dealers crack up at Yanni
VIDEO: Why the dealers are cracking up
Watch the complete Playtime video here and you can see why it makes for a good demo.
NOTE: Yanni is best served with a drink. Thankfully, ADA is serving 4:00 to 6:00 pm daily at Venetian Hotel, Suite 30-311.
CORRECTION: ADA and CE Pro made a terrible error initially when we reported that the track was "On Sacred Ground" from "Yanni Live!" We apologize for any problems this may have caused, for example, if you downloaded the wrong track for a demo of your own.

Of COURSE we have the track bookmarked, along with all of the songs in thousands of concerts and musicals. That's how Richard played it so easily on the Kaleidescape System in his suite.
In addition to the audio, Yanni's trademark backward hair flips were a sight to behold on the SI screen during the demo.

Headshots September 17th

3 Canucks Prospects Who Will Benefit from an NHL Lockout
Thomas Drance
September 17 2012 03:42PM
Lost in the din of Doan decision day and Alex Burrows' four year, 18 million dollar extension - was news that the Canucks re-assigned 23 skaters to their AHL affiliate club the Chicago Wolves. Included in the list of re-assigned prospects were guys like Chris Tanev and Zack Kassian, two players who would've been locks to make the Canucks' NHL roster if not for the lockout.
This isn't a Canucks specific trend. The AHL will be packed with young talent this season, including NHL quality talents like Gabriel Landeskog, Jeff Skinner, Cody Hodgson, Jordan Eberle and maybe even Oliver Ekman-Larsson. This creates a unique developmental situation, since the quality of competition in the American Hockey League is likely to be significantly elevated in the first month (or more) of the season.
Let's parse through the list of re-assigned players, and look at which Canucks prospects stand to benefit most from additional AHL seasoning.
Doubting Thomas: Why Luongo will Bounce Back Next Season
Dimitri Filipovic
September 17 2012 09:56AM
After a summer in which, Roberto Luongo proved immovable do I still think the gold medal winning goaltender will call a city other than Vancouver "home" by the time the puck drops on the 2012-13 NHL season? Yes, I do. I'm just not as bullish about it as I was back in July, when it seemed to be a certainty.
After everything that has transpired and been said in the media, it would be a rather questionable decision to have Roberto go back into that locker room. Also, allocating north of $9 million in cap space between the pipes would be a spot of uncharacteristically bad asset management from the Canucks' management team.
At the same time, it has been made abundantly clear that Gillis is not in the business of trading away a top-10 goaltender, in his prime, just for the sake of trading him. Given the reluctance of teams such as Florida and Toronto to part ways with their young talent, we're caught in the midst of the ultimate game of chicken.
Based on everything he's done in his career (as a retired NHLer taking on Alan Eagleson, as a player agent, and as a General Manager), I've got my money on Gillis not being the first one to blink. Gillis' willful patience is a major reason why we should, at this point, assume that the Canucks will enter the season with Roberto Luongo as part of the team. Until something happens, at least.
Lockout considerations
Patrick Johnston
September 15 2012 05:01PM
Speaking with lawyers is often a good way to get to the root of the argument.
Earlier this week, some interesting concepts emerged from a recent conversation I had with a pair of lawyers I know in Toronto. With the lockout beginning officially on Saturday night at 11:59 PM EST, I figured I'd share four points of particular interest. Check them out after the jump.
A Promise to the NHL and NHLPA
Jonathan Willis
September 15 2012 01:38PM
Today is September 15, the expiration of the collective bargaining agreement between the NHL and NHLPA. Tonight, barring an 11th-hour miracle, the league will lock out its players and begin yet another in a seemingly endless cycle of work stoppages.
If that happens, I have a promise to both sides.
