1. Re: BS vanilla script Workflow Utilitiesjiyong Oct 12, 2012 2:08 PM (in response to 963069)Usually this is used to copy values from one property set to another.
You can read some more on Supportweb.
2. Re: BS vanilla script Workflow Utilities963069 Oct 15, 2012 9:45 AM (in response to jiyong)Could you kindly sight an example? is it limited for process property? But I am also seeing after the Query operation, it used this BS vanilla wf. Based from looking on the structure of the workflow, its like outputting the one that was not outputted in the before operation took in place. I woudl really appreciate for the detail example. Thank you
3. Re: BS vanilla script Workflow Utilitiesjiyong Oct 15, 2012 10:26 AM (in response to 963069)The post on Supportweb has a sample workflow as an example.
But it looks like you have plenty of examples yourself already.
As you noticed Echo is like a copy operation.
If it works on more than property sets is something I haven't tested.
I have the feeling there is more behind your question.
Do these workflows have problems?
What do you observe when you run these workflows through the Simulator?
4. Re: BS vanilla script Workflow Utilities963069 Oct 16, 2012 8:46 AM (in response to jiyong)Hello thank you for your effort in showing interest in answering my queries.
Upon reading all articles/blogs/bookshelves referring to workflow utilities I think I got to know what its really used for. You are right, it copy values from one property set to another.
To add up, there may be instance where you specify and manipulate the output parameters based from active record of the business component currently being manipulated by the workflow process.
For the benefit of others, for example.
You were given requirement to store all affected row ids to a field. You use process property to hold the particular row_ids, in the event that it has many affected row_ids, how are you going to store those in the process property without affecting the current context?
So you make use of Echo method from BS Workflow Utilities to store the exact equivalent of the value and append all other affected row_ids.
Once the process is completed, you will put the entire value captured thru the utilization of BS workflow utilities via echo method to the said field.
It may be one of the example and there maybe more.
After getting to understand this, I realized it could be a powerful tool in many ways depends of course the nature of the requirements.

So convenient!
I don't bother with fresh garlic or faffy garlic presses and more, a staple for the lazy, busy cook in me.

A brand name of pacifier. It's a registered trade mark of Playtex, but much to the annoyance of their lawyers, it's often used as a generic term for any pacifier.

The word 'Binky' can now be used in place of the term 'eat me' thanks to a loveable polar bear named Binky from the Alaska Zoo in Anchorage. In July of 1994 a tourist climbed the fence at the zoo and received multiple bite wounds, hence the term 'BINKY!'.
Mom: Son, why don't you clean your room?
Son: BINKY!

This invention relates generally to electronic data processing and, more particularly, relates to a system and method for selecting and configuring network components based on user intent.
The processing capability of computer components is continually increasing. The industry has responded by creating applications and operating systems that take full advantage of these performance enhancements. However, as additional functionality was added, these applications generally became more complex, requiring the user to become increasingly knowledgeable about the applications and operating systems to be able to take full advantage of the enhancements.
In response to user aggravation, industry created simpler interfaces that are easier to use so that the average user did not have to be as knowledgeable about the application and the operating system. For example, commonly assigned patent application Ser. No. 09/650,481, "System and Method for Identifying Audio/Visual Programs to be Recorded," filed Aug. 29, 2000, provides for a token schema that provides sufficient program criteria to enable a recording system that receives the token to record the identified program based on the token. The token provides the user with the capability to record a program without having to know the broadcast time for the program or the broadcast channel.
However, while these simpler interfaces significantly enhance the user's experience, the user must still know what program to use and, in many cases, how the program works in order to use the program. A method is needed whereby a program or operating system component can select and configure network components based on user intent.
The present invention relates to a method for determining a user's intent based on the user's input. The input can be received in a variety of different ways, including verbally. For example, the input can be a simple message, a high level topology request with few, if any, constraints, or a detailed topology request with constraints. Constituents and a topology are derived from the user's intent. The constituents and topology are resolved into a configuration based upon contexts. The contexts provide information about resource availability, preferences, and user authority limitations. The configuration is then realized (i.e., implemented).
Another aspect of the present invention provides an XML schema for facilitating user intent. The XML schema includes an object element that specifies an object to be created, a node element that identifies a node in the desired topology, a connection element to specify connections between nodes, an interface element to specify an interface that clients use to control the object, and a format element that specifies a format for a connection or node.
Additional features and advantages of the invention will be made apparent from the following detailed description of illustrative embodiments which proceeds with reference to the accompanying figures.
While the appended claims set forth the features of the present invention with particularity, the invention, together with its objects and advantages, may be best understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of which:
Turning to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements, the invention is illustrated as being implemented in a suitable computing environment. Although not required, the invention will be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, being executed by a personal computer. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Moreover, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the invention may be practiced with other computer system configurations, including hand-held devices, multi-processor systems, microprocessor based or programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, broad-cast enabled computers, minicomputers, mainframe computers, and the like. The invention may also be practiced in distributed computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and remote memory storage devices.
The invention is operational with numerous other general purpose or special purpose computing system environments or configurations. Examples of well known computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for use with the invention include, but are not limited to, personal computers, server computers, hand-held or laptop devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set top boxes, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, distributed computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices, and the like.
The invention may be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, being executed by a computer. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. The invention may also be practiced in distributed computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and remote computer storage media including memory storage devices.
With reference to
Computer 110 typically includes a variety of computer readable media. Computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by computer 110 and includes both volatile and nonvolatile media, removable and non-removable media. By way of example, and not limitation, computer readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes both volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical disk storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by computer 110. Communication media typically embodies computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data in a modulated data signal such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism and includes any information delivery media. The term "modulated data signal" means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media. Combinations of the any of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
The system memory 130 includes computer storage media in the form of volatile and/or nonvolatile memory such as read only memory (ROM) 131 and random access memory (RAM) 132. A basic input/output system 133 (BIOS), containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within computer 110, such as during start-up, is typically stored in ROM 131. RAM 132 typically contains data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or presently being operated on by processing unit 120. By way of example, and not limitation,
The computer 110 may also include other removable/non-removable, volatile/nonvolatile computer storage media. By way of example only,
The drives and their associated computer storage media discussed above and illustrated in
The computer 110 may operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computer 180. The remote computer 180 may be another personal computer, a server, a router, a network PC, a peer device or other common network node, and typically includes many or all of the elements described above relative to the personal computer 110, although only a memory storage device 181 has been illustrated in
When used in a LAN networking environment, the personal computer 110 is connected to the LAN 171 through a network interface or adapter 170. When used in a WAN networking environment, the computer 110 typically includes a modem 172 or other means for establishing communications over the WAN 173, such as the Internet. The modem 172, which may be internal or external, may be connected to the system bus 121 via the user input interface 160, or other appropriate mechanism. In a networked environment, program modules depicted relative to the personal computer 110, or portions thereof, may be stored in the remote memory storage device. By way of example, and not limitation,
In the description that follows, the invention will be described with reference to acts and symbolic representations of operations that are performed by one or more computer, unless indicated otherwise. As such, it will be understood that such acts and operations, which are at times referred to as being computer-executed, include the manipulation by the processing unit of the computer of electrical signals representing data in a structured form. This manipulation transforms the data or maintains it at locations in the memory system of the computer, which reconfigures or otherwise alters the operation of the computer in a manner well understood by those skilled in the art. The data structures where data is maintained are physical locations of the memory that have particular properties defined by the format of the data. However, while the invention is being described in the foregoing context, it is not meant to be limiting as those of skill in the art will appreciate that various of the acts and operation described hereinafter may also be implemented in hardware.
Turning now to
The process begins with program module 136 receiving the user's intent (step 200). The user's intent is received through the user interface 160 or the network interface 170 and can be submitted verbally or through peripherals like mouse 161, keyboard 162, and modem 172. The user intent can be a simple message like "Play Mozart", a high level topology request with few, if any, constraints, (e.g., "Play Creed in the kitchen") or a detailed topology request with constraints (e.g., "Play 'The Matrix' in the den with the audio going to the surround sound speakers with the volume set at mid-level and the video going to the high definition television at the default streaming rate.").
Program module 136 then determines the constituents and the topology that are in the user intent (step 202). The constituents are the devices and content that is referred to in the intent. The topology is how the constituents are related to each other. For example, the constituents of the user intent expressed as "Play 'The Godfather' on television" are "The Godfather" and the television and the topology is the fact that the user wants to play "The Godfather" on television.
The contexts are checked (step 204) for limitations to see if the user's intent can be resolved (step 206).
The resource context 302 comprises all the devices and networks and content that are available and how they are available. For example, in a home setting, the resource context 302 would include the computers in the home, the type of network in the home, what is on the computers (e.g., applications and operating systems), networked components (e.g., printers, video recorders, televisions, etc.), where the components are located, whether there is Internet access, and the services available on the Internet.
The user context 304 comprises what is known about the user. For example, the user context 304 includes the user's location, the user's security permissions, the preferences in terms of the services that are used, how to pay for items, and other personal preferences such as how loud music is played. In one embodiment, the user context 304 includes a superset 308. The superset 308 contains information about things the user is part of that is not specific to that user. This information can be information about family, domain, organization, etc. This allows information common to a family (e.g., no M-TV, no R-rated movies before 9 p.m.) to be in one place. Similarly, information common to a domain or an organization can be put in one location.
The application context 306 comprises information about applications that are present. The information includes what type of application an application is, how the application processes inputs, how the application outputs data, etc.
Turning back to
If the user's intent can be resolved, a configuration is determined based upon the contexts (step 210) and the configuration is implemented (step 212). A configuration has the characteristics that the providers (e.g., devices, components) for everything are known and the parameters that the providers need to implement the user's intent are known. Using the same example, the user context 304 indicates the user has permission to watch the movie and the resource context 302 indicates that a television is available for use. The configuration is the television and the movie being played on the television and the configuration is implemented by playing the movie on the television. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the intent could result in different configurations based upon the contexts. For example, in a first instance, the television in the den is available and the big-screen television in the basement is unavailable and at another instance, the television in the den is unavailable and the big-screen television is available. In the first instance, the configuration is that the movie is to be played on the television in the den. In the other instance, the configuration is that the movie is to be played on the big-screen television in the basement.
In one embodiment, the users specify their intent through an XML schema. The XML schema allows the users to specify as much detail of what is wanted as the users desire. This can range from a high level topology with few constraints to a detailed description of the topology with detailed descriptions of each component and connection in the topology. The basic elements of the XML schema include an object element, a node element, a connection element, an interface element, and a format element.
The object element specifies an object to be created. The node element identifies a node in the topology and the connection element specifies connections between nodes. The interface element specifies an interface that clients use to control the object and the format element specifies a format for a connection or node. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other elements can be added and that not all elements are needed for certain implementations. For example, there is no connection element if the topology is playing a song that is already loaded on a device on that device.
The object element includes an autoplay attribute. The autoplay attribute indicates whether the object should be started by the component that created the object and provides the user with the ability to specify the object with the object operating until an end command is received.
The node element includes an identifier attribute that identifies the node in the context of the request. This feature allows the node to be referenced by other elements. Child elements, which describe the element in question, describe the user's constraints and goals for the node and indicate what interfaces the user may want to access to control the node.
The connection element includes source and destination attributes that identify the nodes that are to be connected. Additional attributes are a source terminal attribute and a destination terminal attribute. The source terminal attribute and destination terminal attribute are used in situations where a node has multiple connection points (e.g., terminals or pins) and a connection point cannot be identified by the direction of data flow. Child elements are used to specify user constraints and goals including format, quality of service, and routing.
The interface element in the intent schema allows the user to indicate that the interface that is named via the name attribute may be requested in relation to the node to which the interface element is attached. For example, if a user intends to play audio content through a stereo amplifier, she might want to control the volume of the amplifier. An interface element (e.g. <interface>IAudioVolume</interface>) indicates to the program module 136 that the volume interface may be requested and that appropriate resources should be reserved. The interface element results in the advantages that the program module 136 is able to obtain an interface promptly and that the resources required to obtain the interface are reserved.
The format element includes attributes that identify the types of formats the connection or node supports and are used to call out a specific format handler. A format handler is a module that configures a provider to implement a specified format. In the context of a connection, the format of the connection is restricted to the formats specified in the format element. In the context of a node terminal, the formats supported by the node terminal are restricted to the formats specified in the format element.
An example of the XML schema to express user intent is below. The user intent is to play audio/video streams from a UPnP camera on a laptop and an IEEE 1394 compatible television. The XML schema is:
<streamingObject autoplay="true"> <node ID="camera"> <upnpSource address=" . . . "> </node> <node ID="laptop"> <abstractDest> default-display <abstractDest/> </node> <node ID="tv"> <upnpSource address=" . . . "/> </node> <connection src="camera" dest="laptop"/> <connection src="camera" dest="tv"/> </streamingObject>
In this example, the streaming object is set to automatically run until an end of stream command is received. The node elements call out the camera, laptop and television. The child elements (e.g., <upnpsource address=" . . . "/>) of the node elements describe the node in more detail. The connection elements indicate how the nodes are interconnected.
The resources are described in XML and allow users to specify their intent in more detail or do nothing and use the defaults. In one embodiment, the UPNP camera is expressed as follows.
<streamingDevice type="camera"> <interface name="UpnPCamera1.0"> <referenced ID="transport61883"> <transport> <61883 channel=" . . . "> <1394/> </61883> </transport> </referenced> <referenced ID="audioFormat"> <format major="audio" minor="pcm"> <representation> Integer </representation> <enum> <group> <bits> 12 </bits> <enum> <channels> 2 </channels> <channels> 4 </channels> </enum> </group> <group> <bits> 16 </bits> <channels> 2 </channels> </group> </enum> <rate> 44100 </rate> </format> </referenced> <referenced ID="videoFormat"> <format major="video" minor="rgb"> <width> 320 </width> <height> 200 </height> <enum> <bitsperpixel> 16 </bitsperpixel> <bitsperpixel> 24 </bitsperpixel> </enum> <enum> <framespersec> 25 </framespersec> <framespersec> 30 </framespersec> </enum> </format> </referenced> <referenced ID="cameraNode"> <node ID="camera" type="camera1234.5"> <interface name="upnpCamera1.0"/> . . . </node> </referenced> <enum> <group> <reference ID="transport61883"/> <node ID="mic" type="microphone"> <node ID="outTerminal" type="outTerminal"> <reference ID="audioFormat"> </node> <connection src="mic" dest="outTerminal"/> </group> <group> <reference ID="transport61883"/> <reference ID="cameraNode"> <node ID="outTerminal" type="outTerminal"> <reference ID="videoFormat"> </node> <connection src="camera" dest="outTerminal"/> </group> <group> <reference ID="transport61883"/> <reference ID="cameraNode"> <node ID="audioOutTerminal" type="outTerminal"> <reference ID="audioFormat"> </node> <node ID="videoOutTerminal" type="outTerminal"> <reference ID="videoFormat"> </node> <connection src="camera" dest="audioOutTerminal"/> <connection src="camera" dest="videoOutTerminal"/> </group> <group> <transport> <rtp rtcpLevel=" . . .

The above device description contains referenced elements, reference elements, enum elements, and group elements. Referenced elements contain text that is used in more than one place in the device description. Reference elements call out referenced elements place to avoid duplication. Enum elements contain a list of options from which one option must be selected. Group elements group together multiple aspects that correspond to a single option. The user selects the specific options she wants and accepts the default selection if no option is selected.
A method of determining a user's intent has been described that provides users with the flexibility to express their intent as broadly or as detailed as desired. The flexibility allows the user to utilize programs without having to know which program to use, which programs and other resources are available, and how the programs work.

Woman charged in man's abduction
Published: Friday, April 21, 2006 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 20, 2006 at 11:00 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | A Duncanville woman was arrested Tuesday for allegedly kidnapping a 49-year-old man who was hospitalized after being beaten.
Ladonna Travell Hughes, 27, of the 103000 block of Swindle Road, was charged with first-degree kidnapping. She was released early Tuesday on $10,000 bail.
Lt. Loyd Baker, commander of the Tuscaloosa County Metro Homicide Unit, said the man, whose name wasnt released, was kidnapped Sunday by Hughes and two men identified as James Anthony Baker, 40, and Mark Cooper, 27.
According to police, the victim owed the two men money that they had given him to hold about a week before the kidnapping.
He was supposed to give this money to someone, but the money disappeared," Lt. Baker said.
According to witnesses, when they found the victim, they assaulted him with a tire tool and, with the help of Hughes, they loaded him into a car, where he was taken to [a residence on] Cypress Creek Avenue [where the victims family lives] in an attempt to gain money from the victims family," he said.
A member of the victims family called 911, but the suspects fled before law enforcement arrived.
The victim was taken to DCH Regional Medical Center. Hes since been released from the hospital, Lt. Baker said.
Hughes was picked up without incident Monday and charged with kidnapping Tuesday morning, police said.
James Baker and Cooper remain at large. Lt. Baker said warrants have been issued for their arrests.
On Tuesday, Hughes was arrested again and charged with two counts of unlawful distribution of a controlled substance, police said. The drug charges were not related to the kidnapping charge, Lt. Baker said.
Hughes is out of jail on that charge on $20,000 bail.

Niall Ferguson: Paris could burn this summerHistorians in the News
tags: Paris, Niall Ferguson, revolution, riots, CNBC
High youth unemployment in Europe and disappointing growth expectations in the emerging world could mean more mass protests like the ones seen in Brazil, Niall Ferguson told CNBC's "Power Lunch" on Tuesday.
"There are two kinds of city that we could see burn this summer," Ferguson said. "The big European cities with Paris at the top of the list look extremely vulnerable. Paris has a greater tradition of urban rioting than almost any city in the world."
Ferguson, a Harvard University professor, said the French economy is bad and "the youth unemployment problem right across Latin Europe is really an explosion waiting to go off."...

Ready to wait 'a little longer' for Telangana: TRS
Zeenews Bureau
Hyderabad: Apparently, in view of the continuing unrest in the state and the en masse resignation by legislators, the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) sounded conciliatory on Saturday and announced that it was willing to wait for the creation of a separate Telangana state carved out of Andhra Pradesh.
Clearing the air on their current position, especially in view of the stiff opposition by people and politicians from Rayalaseema and Coastal Andhra, senior TRS leader KT Rama Rao said, "We are willing to wait a little longer for the resolution to be passed in the Assembly."
Observing that adverse reactions are to be expected when new states are formed, Rao said, "We understand the Congress' dilemma; we are thankful to UPA for its commitment to create Telangana."
Importantly, he also pledged that there will be no more protest in Telangana over the issue.
However, the sudden mild tenor from the TRS is also being seen as a tactical move by the party to let the tempers cool down as there has been a massive build up of opinion against Telangana in other parts of the state.
This approach was evident even on the day when party chief K Chandrashekhar Rao was discharged from the hospital. He, instead of going back home in a rally, decided to drive down without any fanfare. No speeches… nothing for now.
What's also forcing the TRS to adopt a wait-and-watch approach is the apparent cold shoulder given by the Centre. Post the midnight announcement by P Chidambaram, the government has made it absolutely clear that it won't hurry into the creation of Telangana.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, himself, has made it clear that the government won't take any hasty decision on the issue and would look forward to building a consensus.
The fact remains: main reason for the 'go slow' approach is the near total mutiny by Congress MPs and MLAs from Rayalaseema and Coastal Andhra against the decision to split the state.
The Congress is also wary of taking a call on Hyderabad – the biggest bone of contention in the entire issue. Geographically, Cyberabad has to be in Telangana but the problem is that 80% of businesses in the city of Nizams are controlled by people from Coastal Andhra.

Am I at Risk for Fibroids?
In every issue of WebMD the Magazine, we ask our experts to answer readers' questions about a wide range of topics. In our June 2012 issue, we asked Laura Corio, MD, WebMD's women's health expert, about the risk factors for fibroids.
Q : Several women in my family have fibroids. Does that mean I am at risk, too?

7 Diet Mistakes and Fast Fixes
You were so good all week. But then you snuck a doughnut ... and then another. To get back on track quickly, start here. There's that dreaded point in every diet — for me, it's after the first 10 pounds — when you start to slack off a little. You skip lunch one Saturday, and later that night at a restaurant with your husband,...
Read the 7 Diet Mistakes and Fast Fixes article > >
A: You may be. Fibroids, which grow in the muscle layers of the uterus and also on the cervix, are the most common pelvic tumors in women. About 80% of women develop at least one fibroid in the uterus by menopause.
Most fibroids don't cause problems. (Fewer than 0.5% are cancerous.) But depending on where they grow, fibroids may cause back pain, constipation, cramping, anemia, pain during sex, and heavy, long periods. They can also make it harder for a woman to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term.
Risk factors for fibroids do include family history, as well as race -- African-American women get fibroids more often, earlier, and more severely than white women. Other factors include having your first period before age 10, never giving birth, and having high blood pressure.
Visit your gynecologist yearly -- more often if you're having fibroid symptoms. Doctors can detect fibroids with a sonogram and remove them surgically. Some women take birth control pills to control heavy bleeding. After menopause, your fibroids will shrink on their own.

Recent rate increases for shipping services by UPS and FedEx and the pending Jan. 17 rate increase for U.S. Postal Service (USPS) shipping services, are challenging businesses -- especially small retailers and e-retailers -- to look for new and innovative solutions to optimize their shipping operations, according to Pitney Bowes.
It is common during an election cycle for candidates to lament how nothing gets done in Washington. However, that's not always a bad thing, as evidenced by some of the Retail Industry Leaders Association's efforts to influence and repeal legislation.
Retailers are paying more and offering more incentives to secure experienced in-store help to increase sales.
Consumers' expectations of retailers and suppliers have never been higher. This is true whether the issue is store experience, mobile technology, low prices or online order fulfillment option. One area where consumer expectations have always been high is product safety.
Target's board of directors has added a former executive of the retailer's largest supplier.
Aside from some massively complex challenges, retailer and consumer packaged goods marketers have never had it so good, according to Bob Fair, president of marketing applications at Teradata.
A new event for retailers and consumer package goods executives is taking shape called Shoptalk and the successful entrepreneurs behind its creation have big plans and funding to make it happen.
Target is expanding the list of chemicals it wants suppliers to take out of their products, stepping up pressure on its vendors to respond to consumer health concerns.
When it comes to keeping supply chain and logistics operations as efficient as possible, retailers are getting smart.
Dependent on Target for 43% of its revenue, licensed apparel company Cherokee Global Brand saw its market value obliterated after disclosing Target would not renew a decades old relationship.

- Thaw peas.
- In large bowl combine cooked macaroni,shrimp,peas,eggs and onion.
- Dress with mayonnaise and horseradish.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
Most Helpful
This is the best shrimp pasta salad I've ever had, even better than my Mom's, and she's a great cook. I had never added peas or horseradish before and they really kicked up the flavor of this salad. I only used 1/2 teaspoon of the horseradish because I thought it might be too hot, but it wasn't at all, so next time I'll use the entire 1 teaspoon. Thanks for posting this terrific recipe that I'll be making many times again!!
This pasta salad is great! I used whole wheat pasta I already had cooked and kept all other ingredients the same. LOVED the addition of the horseradish! Thanks for sharing, Marlene. **Made for Fall PAC 2008**

Per the authors, the financial service industry ignores consumption smoothing methodology for several reasons. First, it is really complicated. It includes many variables (mortgages, change in member of households, AMT, Social Security benefits taxation, etc...). Second, it reduces retirement savings needs. Third, it reduces the investment risk you need to incur to reach your goals. Thus, consumption smoothing would cut into the sales of financial products.
The authors spare no one in the financial service industry. The mutual fund managers don't earn their fees as 70% of them routinely fall behind the stock indexes. And, the 30% that beat the market change every year. Thus, the 30% who beat the market are just Fooled by Randomness: The Hidden Role of Chance in Life and in the Markets. Hedge funds don't have a chance to make up for their high fee structure (1% management fee; 20% of returns). Insurance salesmen care more about their commission than your finances.Read more ›
Before I read this book, I was also aware that Kotlikoff sells his own software package ESPlanner for $150 a copy plus $50 annual update fee ($200 for Monte Carlo version plus $50 annual update fee).
My first comment is that my perception is that Kotlikoff wrote the majority of this book. I base this upon the early writings of Kotlikoff and Burns that I have read.
I have long known that index funds usually beat roughly 70% of the actively managed funds in any given year......and my gut intuition is that similar statistics apply to the latest rage.....hedge funds. Kotlikoff points this out in a slightly different way saying that if 70% of mutual funds with the managers paid 1% of assets per year and 0% of the profits can't beat their appropriate index.......then there is no way a hedge fund charging 2% of assets per year and taking 20% of the profits will ever beat out index funds.
Kotlikoff also expresses the lack of financial literacy of Americans in a new way. I already knew that almost all Americans received no education in investing in our high school and college system. I used to get a kick out of the periodic investment tests that Money magazine used to give to average Americans..........and they consistently received grades of F on the test.Read more ›
But I'm going to devote the rest of this review to knocking it.
It is a popular introduction. Too popular. The breeziness of the writing style goes beyond the Strunk and White's worst nightmare. Schticks like naming hypothetical characters "Bill and Hillary" or "Donald and Ivana" or "Dr. Ruth" annoy and distract me like the scraping of a fingernail on a blackboard. The book is replete with dialog like "I'm going to convert!" "You found Jesus?" "Not quite. I'm going to convert all my 403(b) money to a Roth IRA to save taxes." Ewwwwww!
What I take from this book is that our financial lives contain such unexpectedly complicated interactions that few decisions can be intuited or considered in isolation. For example, the financial aspects of a mortgage: the interest is deductible, but only if you itemize... and interest decreases with time while the standard deduction, being inflation-indexed, increases with time. So for many families, the tax savings on interest deductibility last for only a few years. But there are other complexities as well; by the time I finished the chapter on the tax and consumption-leveling implications of a mortgage, my head was spinning. I was glad that I paid off my mortgage long ago and don't need to think this stuff through.Read more ›
