Product Description
"[T]he volume offers certain important building blocks that can represent a bonus for students willing to learn simulation in the future. . . . Bonacich and Lu's work brillantly introduces much of what ABM students will be requested to know in their subsequent studies."--Giangiacomo Bravo, JASSS
"If you are interested in sociology specifically, or in some of the others social sciences (especially political science), then this book is a very good introduction for you. . . . I would certainly recommend it to students and others who have some mathematical maturity and are interested in mathematical sociology, mathematical political science, or mathematical psychology."--JamesM. Cargal, UMAP Journal
From the Back Cover
"A first-rate introduction. The coverage is exemplary, starting with basic math techniques and progressing to models that incorporate a number of these techniques. Chapters on evolutionary game theory, cooperative games, and chaos are significantly innovative, as is the incorporation of simulations. This book brings mathematics to life for students who may entertain doubts about the role of math in sociology."--Peter Abell, professor emeritus, London School of Economics and Political Science
"This book provides a concise and up-to-date introduction to mathematical sociology and social network analysis. It presents a solid platform for engaging undergraduates in mathematical approaches to sociological inquiry, and includes Mathematica modules with which students can explore the properties and implications of a variety of formal models. I plan on using it in my courses on social networks."--Noah E. Friedkin, coauthor of Social Influence Network Theory: A Sociological Examination of Small Group DynamicsSee all Product Description

With that said, it does a good job of bringing together a lot of mathematical topics that the typical student in sociology will not be exposed to if they take the basic quantitative regimen of statistics and survey data analysis. It has a lot of overlap with social networks. Some of the chapters are nearly identical to the subject matter in an undergraduate social networks course. The later chapters on game theory also offer content that is not available anywhere else.
In short, this book isn't for seasoned veterans of the field, but written for new and curious minds. Though the writing style may vary, some chapters are very friendly and explain concepts in a very accessible manner, sometimes even with humor. As an introductory book, it could have used more references, or at least point the inspired reader to additional resources if they wanted to explore each of the different topics in the book further.
The biggest flaw in this book -- in my opinion, anyway -- is the ridiculous choice of examples in some chapters. The central examples in Chapter 3 on probability concern dice and playing cards. Chapter 14 (Markov Chains) centers on drawing balls from an urn. The demography chapter (15) employs an example of the life cycle of a cat. Where is the sociology?
The book concludes with an "Afterword: 'Resistance is Futile'" that tries to make the case that the mathematical is a necessary component of education in sociology. That may be the case, but my advice is: "Resist this book!".

Gears of War Kinect RTS images surface – rumour
A se of screens purported to represent a Gears of War RTS have surfaced on VGLeaks. The early alpha screens apparently show a game in which you could control troop movements by drawing lines with your fingers. There's absolutely no proof, but a Gears of War title called Exile was shelved sometimes before April 2012, and is believed to have involved Kinect in some way.

What will our Electronics Business Plan do for your Business?
We supply you with everything you need!
The main objective of generating your business plan is to help you get a successful business. Ultimately, it is fruitless to create a business plan that can raise the funding that you are seeking if your business is so inexpertly conceived that it is undoubtedly going to lose money.
Our Electronics Business Plans are not like the badly written, free, ancient, business plans that you find on the net. Our business plans concentrate on:
- The Business Concept.
- The current Electronics market.
- Establishing a consistent focus for your Electronics Business.
- Suggestions for better ways to advertise and create income from your products and services.
- Managing Your Electronics Business.
"We purchase from a-2-z business plans frequently. My clients are so happy when I finish their plan for them!"
Cory Todd, Carpinteria, CA
The Business Concept.
Usually new business owners get their inspiration in one of four ways.
- Previous Work Experience,
- Education or Training,
- Talents, hobbies or other personal interests, or
- A recognition of an unanswered demand or market opportunity.
Our Electronics Business Plan has plenty of wording to cover your requirements.
"It really saves me a huge amount of time and exertion. Your Electronics Business Plan is precisely what my organization has needed. Nice work on your business plan. It is superb."
D. A. Long, Asmara
The current Electronics market.
Only a small number of business owners have the funds to organize thorough market research. Market reports can be huge documents, and cost thousands; they are also meaningless for smaller organizations. Our Electronics Business Plan contains vital wording about:
- The people you should be focusing on with your marketing campaigns and brand message.
- Whether the market is expanding or shrinking and by how much.
- The trends in the market and how you might capitalize on them.
This knowledge will enable you to figure out how and where your items should be located in the market.
"Your Electronics Business Plan is the most worthwhile business product we have ever paid for. It is simply stunning. Thank you so much a-2-z Business Plans."
Jessie Black, Smith
Establishing a consistent focus for your Electronics Business.
It is important for your company, if you want it to be profitable, that it enjoys a clearly defined strategic position that makes it different it from its competitors. Describing this position will make sure you capture a specific place in the market, and distinguish what your business does differently from the competition.
We provide mission statements in our Electronics Business Plans and give you various strategic options for your Electronics Business.
"We were a little doubtful so we asked to see the executive summary of the plan. They sent us it later that day. There are a massive amount of free documents which are exceptionally helpful!"
J. Turner, Douglas, WY
Suggestions for better ways to advertise and create income from your products and services.
Our Electronics Business Plans provide you with clear-cut info about the type of merchandise that is selling well in your market-place. How you advertise your products will characterize your organization and how you will be viewed with respect to your competition.
Far too many business owners want to offer the lowest priced goods and services with industry-leading customer service; that is simply the fast lane to failure, as earnings will not deliver a profit. Our business plan packages provide you with various options for defining your organization more profitably.
We also supply you with further, complementary, to supply you with a variety of options for expanding what you offer, and subsequently growing your Electronics Business.
"Because of a-2-z, we have now started our fifth company! Its all tremendous. Please feel free to put this on your web pages. Thank you for making it easy, comfortable and, first and foremost, problem free. Due credit - the package is huge and really useful!"
M. R. Kelly, Colton, CA
Managing Your Electronics Business.
Financiers base their lending decision almost entirely upon how they evaluate the owner and the managers of the organization. A lot of new business owners think that lenders make the decision based upon the financials they are supplied with, but the reality is correctly displaying the management team is the best way of obtaining the loan that you are seeking. So what are banks searching for?
- Experience - Our Electronics Business Plans show how you can set out crucial information about why you have the appropriate background and experience.
- Realism - Demonstrate you understand the challenges in your businesses market.
- Flexibility - We supply three further business plans so that you can show that your business is ready for changes in the marketplace.
- Ability to work well with people - If you get a serious illness, or have an accident, you will need to demonstrate who will take over and repay the money that is owing.
Do you have members of staff that are efficient and experienced in the various aspects of the business? Or do the talents and qualities of your team duplicate each other?
"We use a-2-z regularly. Our clients are impressed when we complete their plan so quickly! Thank you, Lawrence, we have no hesitation in recommending this to all small businesses"
S. Matthews, Jessup, PA
Electronics Business Plan – Financial Summary
If you do not know how to do your financials then there are dozens of documents and spreadsheets in our Business Plan Package that precisely lay out the straightforward way to finalize your financial plan, employing your ideas and, essentially, figures that match your plans actual wording.
You must make certain that you do not use made-up numbers that you uncover on the web - it is simply not possible that they will work for your business and using fake numbers in an attempt to obtain money is fraud; you will be carrying out a straightforward offense.
Use our material to finalize your business plan to start with, and then your spreadsheets will be straightforward!
"I was told that it would be $1,500 for somebody to generate my plan, so I thought I would give you a go first. I am glad I did, I got a fine business plan and kept my money."
Logan Henry, Plainfield, IL
"The Electronics Business Plan makes it simpler to control and oversee my company. Superb and thank you so much for the huge package. Makes the free plans that you get online look very old and so poorly written."
W. Koch, Castle Hill
"I buy from their site quite often to help me produce plans for my clients!"
Kenneth Benson, Waterford
"The free plans gave us plenty of suggestions for products and services that we had simply missed, and we have already started selling some. Thank you, Dylan. It was really straightforward purchasing the plans and we got the plans well within the twelve hours"
L. O. Malone, St Albans

Julius Ruechel
With grass-fed beef popping up on menus across North America, and more small-farm owners venturing into this growth area, the time is right for a comprehensive book on how to raise, manage, and market grass-fed cattle.
Grass-Fed Cattle covers every aspect of raising and care, including herd selection, breeding, yearly cycles, cultivating and maintaining healthy soil and grass, fencing and pasture rotation, winter grazing, pests and diseases, and necessary equipment.
Author Julius Ruechel, who has been raising beef cattle on his family's farm since his start as a 4-H member, packs this handbook with everything a farmer needs to know, regardless of herd size and acreage. His advice and systems are applicable to the smallest backyard hobby farms as well as the largest commercial herds and ranches.
In addition to essential farming information, Ruechel devotes a major section of the book to marketing. He discusses niche market opportunities, scheduling the selling and buying of cattle for the greatest profit, finishing the beef and arranging for slaughter, labeling, dynamic marketing, and financial planning and record keeping. He also includes chapters specially addressed to the conventional farmer who is transitioning to natural production, the farmer who is considering leasing or buying land, and the farmer who wishes to pursue organic certification.
The first book of its kind, Grass-Fed Cattle is an indispensable, authoritative reference for anyone interested in raising cattle or looking for a profitable farm venture.

Cam Neely knows his job will probably be on the line next season
The Boston Bruins have missed the Stanley Cup playoffs in each of the last two seasons. Cam Neely knows he might not survive a third straight no-show.

BOSTON — Bruins president Cam Neely fielded questions from reporters Wednesday morning for the first time since his team was eliminated from Stanley Cup playoff contention earlier this month.

The Boston Bruins made one of the most surprising moves of the offseason back in June when they traded up-and-coming defensive star Dougie Hamilton to the Calgary Flames for three draft picks. Was the deal sparked by the team's refusal to acquire Hamilton's brother? Bruins president Cam Neely has openly stated that Boston was willing to meet Hamilton's contract demands and...

Cam Neely says he filmed a scene for 'Dumb and Dumber To'
It sure sounds like Sea Bass is about to reappear. There was a uncertainty as to whether Boston Bruins president and hockey Hall of Famer Cam Neely would appear in the "Dumb and Dumber" sequel set to be released this fall. Neely, who appeared in the 1994 original version of the Farrelly Brothers film, kept quiet about his potential role in the new flick. However, he recently...
Cam Neely to reprise role in Dumb and Dumber To?
Who can forget Cam Neely flexing his acting muscles as Sea Bass in the cinematic gem Dumb and Dumber? Well, now that Dumb and Dumber To is a real thing that is actually happening with an official trailer and release date, we're waiting with baited breath to see whether or not Neely will reprise his role as bully Sea Bass. In an interview with the Boston Herald's Jen Royle, Neely...

Cam Neely to reprise famous role?
Boston Bruins president Cam Neely is no stranger to being in front of a camera, and he's reportedly returned to the acting game. Whether he makes the cut, however, is yet to be scene. Neely did indeed film a scene for "Dumb And Dumber To," the sequel to the wildly popular original that was released in 1994, according to the Boston Herald's Jen Royle. What's unclear at this...

I found an 8+ year old grocery store recipt on the weekend. Wow...
Poster Handle
Post Content
1st thing I noticed, my wife and I have hardly changed anything about our buying and eating habits.
The 2nd thing I noticed was the crazy incrases we have had in prices.
1 can Campbells Vegetable soup was listed as $0.89
We now pay $2.19 for the same can.
Fresh Haddock Fillets were $3.99lb. Now $7.99lb.
4 litres of Skim Milk was $4.59...now $7.59.
1 loaf of whole wheat bread was $.99...now $2.99.
Fresh Green Pepper was $1.99lb...now $3.99lb.
Canned tomato juice was $0.99 a can...now $2.29 a can.
Obviously there was waaaaay more on the recipt, but I just can't believe the inflation. I'm sure many people have had to stop buying items the are used to buying, and change their life styles a great deal. I have not gotten to that point yet, but I'm feeling the pinch. It sucks.
Changes are needed.
You need to take a pic of the receipt, go buy the same products, take another pic, and put the pics all over the place.

I can do something like this -- I have been saving receipts here and there for a long time too. I'll do it this evening if I remember.

Theatrical imagery for CIRCUSISM, a performance by the jazz ensemble I COMPANI
A performance: Mozart is watching for minutes until he..... flies away.
MOZART (Bea's owl) is a theatrical film, a performance by an owl. This film exploits the anticipation of something about what to happen, incited by the live music on the stage. The eagle owl Mozart is the performer, who affects with his beauty, caressability, lust to kill and deadly weapons. With an occasional black sense of humour for projection, dream images, hallucinations and bizarre illusions with respect to the bird slide over each other like planes of moods. Finally it happens: the bird flies away.
Circusism is a project by jazz ensemble I Compani initiated by Bo van de Graaf and DZIGA. Circusism was on tour in 2007-2008 with 8 films in search for the basic notion of Cricus. Films are made by: Bea de Visser, Paul en Menno de Nooijer, Judit Hettema, Erik Urlings, Harrie Timmermans, Maayke Kleinbussink & Maaike Lange, Huub Kistemaker, Douwe Dijkstra & Coen Huisman.

Before getting into all the things I like about this watch I want to point out one of the other reviewers posted a problem with the buckle on his watch having some "points" on it that dug into his wrist and made the watch uncomfortable to wear. This must be a factory defect as this is not the case with either of the two that I purchased. While the watch strap is not usually covered by warranty I know from 1st hand experience that Citizen has a dedicated and friendly customer service department and I believe if he contacts them he will find a new strap coming to him rather quickly. Also as to the strap, I have been disappointed somewhat in the past when purchasing a watch and the strap that comes with it is not substantial in length. I have a 7.25 inch wrist and this has not caused me a problem but I would readily notice if someone had a larger wrist they would have to go out and purchase a new and larger strap to be able to wear their new watch. The strap that comes with this citizen will allow someone with a larger wrist than mine to be able to wear this watch with the strap that comes on it. This is very good as I believe the supplied strap is very handsome on this watch.
The BL5250-02L is a marvelous little piece of technology at a very good price! At a suggested retail of $400 I have routinely found the watch at local authorized dealers at around $300.Read more ›
However, it appears that Citizen has changed a few things about the setting of the watch, and NOT changed the documentation. I had to experiment in order to figure out how to set the date, it was nothing like the instructions. In order to change the MODE (time, chrono, alarm, local time) you now have to pull the crown out to the first position, then rotate it. This means that the first position can no longer be used to set the date! (like the instructions say) Now, in TIME mode, with the crown pulled out to position two (where the time is set) the "A" button toggles between all of the time AND date settings (the selected hand does a little dance to let you know it's selected), and twisting the crown adjusts it.
Personally I LOVE this change (once I figured out how to set it). Other reviewers had complained about inadvertently changing the mode when pulling their hand out of a pocket, etc. Now, clicking the crown in the zero position does NOTHING. Which is how it should be. It looks like Citizen listened to user feedback, which speaks miles about them. They now need to update their documentation to match.
Great watch, we'll see how it does with more time on the wrist, but I wanted to let everyone know about my findings ASAP!
The watch does have some quirks. You require patience to set it. As others have pointed out, changing the settings requires you often to wait until the hands travel back or forth from whatever time they're currently set at, to the new function you're changing to. Be careful of date setting. Depending on the setting, you have to wait for a few revolutions of the smaller hands before the date window moves, one date. If you're changing the date from the 2nd to the 29th, you'll be there a while. This watch requires commitment! The alarm is not only soft, but SHORT! About 15 seconds at best. The watch is a not really a chronograph. Those extra sub-dials you see don't really function in that way. Yes, there is a limited chronograph function but it is so poorly designed so as to render the watch useless for that function. The second time zone is handy but the alarm is not sychronized to it.Read more ›
Not sure if I will not catch attention as this watch has quickly become one of my favorites. I have gotten so many positive comments and I've only been wearing it for one month. I agree with those who have stated that for all intents and purposes this watch has a black face and not blue. It takes quite a bit of sunlight at the perfect angle to make the blue tone make its appearance.
From a functionality standpoint, this watch is not meant to be either a chronograph or an alarm. The chronograph is way too complicated and cumbersome to set and activate. By the time you pull out the crown and move the bottom indicator to CHRONO mode, the event you want to time may be over. As for the alarm function, it's not loud enough--at least for me. The rotating bezel is a very useful tool for measuring approximate time spans. I use the bezel quite a bit when I'm taking meds every few hours.
If you plan on using this watch for time and date only, it really is a magnificent tool. I love the fact that it is an analog watch, and my favorite part is that is has a perpetual calendar. When you set the date and time, you actually use the "second" hand to set the current month. Then you use the "chronograph" hand to set the year in relation to the last leap year--1 year after, 2 years after etc.... This means that if you keep the watch powered up, it will keep the correct date on display until the year 2100!Read more ›

In the brave new world of cloud computing, what is the secret to building great companies? That was the question answered by Roman Stanek, pioneer of Business Intelligence (BI) in the Cloud, who on Monday keynoted SYS-CON's Cloud Expo Europe 2009. The first major Cloud event in Europe was co-located with Virtualization Conference Europe 2009, and took place May 18-19, 2009, in Prague, Czech Republic, ans was sponsored by Sun Microsystems, VMware, GoodData Corporation, and 3tera.
Stanek delivered his Cloud Expo Europe keynote on May 18, 2009 at Hilton Prague
In his presentation, titled: "Building Great Companies in the Cloud," Stanek - a technology visionary who has spent the past fifteen years building world-class technology companies - talked about what it means to be 'born on the cloud.' Specifically he shared with delegates his thoughts on how to use cloud computing as a technical design center; how to take advantage of the economics of cloud computing in building and operating cloud services; how to dramatically change customer adoption; and how to plan for the technical and operational scale that cloud computing makes possible.
"By now, most technologists are sold on the fundamentals of cloud computing," said Stanek.. "It's a realization of the last 20 years of architecture development. For architects and developers alike."
The economics of the cloud, according to Stanek, mean that "we finally get to do what we've been drawing on whiteboards for years." Companies large and small are taking advantage of the cloud's utility model. What used to cost $20+ million can now be done for $500k on Amazon Web Services.
"This provides unprecedented opportunity - for new and established companies alike," Stanek noted. His keynote took place Monday May 18th in the Prague Hilton.
Speaker Bio:
Roman Stanek is a technology visionary who has spent the past fifteen years building world-class technology companies. Currently Founder & CEO of GoodData, which provides collaborative analytics on demand, he previously co-founded first NetBeans, now a part of Sun Microsystems and one of the leading Java IDEs, and then and Systinet, now owned by Hewlett-Packard and the leading SOA Governance platform on the market.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

IoT generates lots of temporal data. But how do you unlock its value? You need to discover patterns that are repeatable in vast quantities of data, understand their meaning, and implement scalable monitoring across multiple data streams in order to monetize the discoveries and insights. Motif discovery and deep learning platforms are emerging to visualize sensor data, to search for patterns and to build application that can monitor real time streams efficiently. In his session at @ThingsExpo, ...

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Much of IT terminology is often misused and misapplied. Modernization and transformation are two such terms. They are often used interchangeably even though they mean different things and have very different connotations. Indeed, it is somewhat safe to assume that in IT any transformative effort is likely to also have a modernizing effect, and thus, we can see these as levels of improvement efforts. However, many businesses are being led to believe if they don't transform now they risk becoming ...

Dance Club Pick: Grime and Misdemeanor
The Music Box becomes Hollywood's most dubtastic hub Friday night, Beatdown, when one of the guys known as dubstep's "ambassador," Joe Nice (Dubwar, NYC), takes the decks. The ferocious and funky beats go full-throttle with Nice in command, but other grime-ish groovers promise to keep the pulse moving: L.A.'s own Freaky Flow (celebrating the release of his album The Furious Factor), NumberNin6, Dive Elements (live), Eva + 007, Nomad (Live), Da Moth and dance performances from Pandora, Preying Mantas, Tronick and Sina Sonja. 6126 Hollywood Blvd., Hlywd. beatdownla.com. The competition, Control, will see more haircut-minded neo-raver hordes, when Le Castle Vania and Paparazzi head the hump-fest. Don't let either DJ's sideways indie-boy locks fool ya; each is adept at rocking a dance party hard, infusing punky sensibilities into their relentless electronic sets. The Friday frenzy at Avalon will also include Computer Club, BB Guns, Ed Gould in the main room, plus We Are All Freaks, Brando Commando and others. 1735 Vine St., Hlywd. avalonhollywood.net. Both clubs, Fri., May 14.

What Does "Put God First" REALLY Mean?
What does "Put God first" REALLY mean? Like many, I was raised to believe that putting God first meant to put myself on the backburner and have compassion for everyone else. It meant that I had to treat others with thoughtfulness, love and kindness, but not do this for myself. Putting God first meant that everyone else's feelings, opinions and dreams mattered, and I had to "be good" by suppressing my own. I was taught that THIS is love. But I didn't feel very loving and often found myself mired in emotional chaos. That's when I decided to make a shift. This is what I discovered. Click here to read more.

Left fielder Brett Gardner took over as New York's leadoff hitter, and right-handed-hitting Aaron Hicks started in center.
Analysis: Ellsbury backpedaled on J.D.

What sliding scale or pro bono options are available...if any. My situation is of the most simple...6 CC's, 1 Medical bill..total ~$25,000, I literally own nothing, no leins, no secured debt, no assets, no life, NO NOTHING FRANKLY!
Bankruptcy Attorney
You will need to check with local attorneys in your state if you are looking for Pro Bono work. Most attorneys will charge something. Many will have payment plans.
You may want to look into legal aid in your area. Most legal aid requires that you be below a certain income to use their services. If you are not below this income, I suggest to start saving and speak with a local attorney.
Criminal Defense Attorney
If you are "judgment proof" why bother filing bankrutpcy?
Bankruptcy Attorney
It is going to depend on the attorney, you don't indicate that you have no income, and income is going to play a role as to whether someone is willing to represent you pro bono, so you will need to ask around, with the best starting point being a legal aid/assistance office. Often your local bankruptcy court's website will have links to one.
As another attorney mentioned, if you are judgment proof, which it sounds like you are (unless you have garnishable wages), then you don't really NEED to file at this point, as there is no way to collect the debt against you.
