IBM is harvesting the fruits of its April 2004 acquisition of Trigo Technologies in the form of new middleware designed to help businesses better track, manage and control product information. The company has unveiled IBM WebSphere Product Center Version 5, which is designed to help users develop a central repository of product information that is synchronized with internal systems and shared across supply chains.
Dan Druker, director of product information management solutions in IBM's Software Group, who joined the company as part of the Trigo acquisition, calls the new offering a product information manager (a label that will have to share the "PIM" acronym with personal information managers). Druker told eADT that Trigo began working on software for managing the process of bringing new products to market five years ago.
"There simply was nothing in place to manage the process, to manage information about products comprehensively," he said. "We saw a greenfield opportunity, and that was the business problem we set out to solve."
In a typical company, Druker said, the information needed to bring products to market is scattered across the enterprise. He estimates that about 5% resides in ERP systems, but the bulk is not stored in any kind of software. "Most of it is in spreadsheets and desktop files, written on papers and in people's heads."
Druker called the essentially manual process of coordinating that information to bring a product to market a "black art" performed by "human middleware."
Enter WebSphere Product Center Version 5. With Trigo's contribution, the product is designed to allow customers to manage and link product, trading partner, location, organization, pricing and promotion information.
For example, large global businesses can use Product Center to consolidate product information from multiple legacy systems and then categorize hundreds of thousands of product attributes. The idea is to improve how information is handled throughout an organization, making it easier for users to access data and to reduce errors, redundant data and manual processes.
IBM is clearly aiming for a range of high-end customers with this product. According to the company, it "contains significant new technology to help improve productivity and performance in global implementations that involve thousands of users, millions of products, thousands of attributes per product and billions of attribute values such as color, weight, flavor and price."
"The new features in Web Sphere Product Center Version 5 are all about managing big systems," Druker said. "It's all about helping customers manage and be successful in the world's largest deployments. These are customers with millions of products, who interact with tens of thousands of trading partners and are accessed by very large trading communities."
Although no customer names were available at press time, Druker said that the smallest current user is a "$100 million manufacturer of industrial products," and the largest is a "$130 billion global retailer."
The list of new features in Product Center Version 5 include productivity enhancers for system administrators, features for improved user experience and increased productivity for large user communities, and greater scalability for on-demand computing, according to the company.
IBM also unveiled a roadmap for integrating Product Center into its other products. A new set of "cross-company initiatives" will link Product Center with IBM WebSphere Commerce, IBM WebSphere Portal and IBM's RFID middleware. Industry watchers have said that the data synchronization piece, which links disparate product data in warehouses to back-end corporate information systems, will play a critical role in completing the RFID picture.
The company also plans to integrate Product Center capabilities with IBM offerings for employee and trading-partner portals, as well as IBM's vertical offerings for global data synchronization, consumer-driven supply chains and enterprise data management (mainly in the retail, distribution, consumer products and manufacturing sectors), the company said. IBM said at the time of its acquisition of Trigo that the company's technology would help Big Blue to create industry-specific versions of its middleware products.
Version 5 of the Product Center comes with the WebSphere Application Server, DB2 Information Integrator, WebSphere Business Integration MQ Series and Adapter for MQ at no extra charge.
IBM WebSphere Product Center Version 5 is available today. Pricing starts at $300,000.

Reasons to buy a home this yearMichelle McQuade | July 24, 2017
This year is as good a time as any to take that leap. Here are the main reasons:
- 1. Rent is up
It may not feel like it, but buying your own home is cheaper than renting. Buying is nearly 38% less expensive, according to this report. As a monthly expense, rent looks like the more economical choice. But putting your money into something that you own places you in a better financial advantage for the long-term.
Another important point to remember is that rent tends to increase with inflation, while mortgages, especially on fixed terms, are less likely to be affected.
- 2. Mortgage rates are set to rise
In August last year, 30-year mortgage rates bottomed out at 3.55%. The latest rates are hovering at around 4%. Mortgage rates today are still historically low, but real estate experts predict that rates are set to keep rising.
In addition, the Federal Reserve has started to gradually increase benchmark interest rates. Interest rate hikes do not directly cause mortgage rates to increase, but consumers will still feel the impact of these policies on your borrowing capacity in other forms, such as the interest on your credit card purchases.
Jump at the chance to secure a home now, before these rate increases begin to limit your purchasing power.
- 3. The dwindling housing inventory
There are fewer homes sold today – and that won't change anytime soon. If you keep waiting for a "better time" to buy a house, your options will continue to dwindle, just like current inventory.
- 4. Home prices are rising
Because of the limited supply of homes amid consistent demand, prices have been shooting up over the last few months. Current prices are already higher than those before the 2007 economic crash. More than rising mortgage rates, however, buyers should be more concerned about rising home prices.
Recent reports on the slowdown in rising home prices mostly affects major cities like San Francisco and Manhattan, where median prices are already record-setting to begin with. In Cleveland, however, one of the more affordable markets today is still prone to this trend of increasing prices.
Aside from the above reasons, consider the "why" of your current interest in the housing market more than the "when." If you're moving up from rental living or taking a step toward a more family-oriented lifestyle, for example, and if you intend to stay put in your new home for at least five years, it's easy to justify the purchase as a worthwhile investment, regardless of timing.
Read more about my homebuying tips here and feel free to give me a call at (440) 823-2448. I'd be delighted to help you with your real estate needs in Greater Cleveland.

By Army Marketing and Research Group
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The first two 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl players accepted their jerseys Sept. 25, from U.S. Army Recruiting Command's commanding general and deputy commanding general.
USAREC CG Maj. Gen. David Mann gave the good news to Lake Highlands High School (Dallas) offensive lineman Kent Perkins while Brig. Gen. Henry Huntley visited Aloha High School in Portland, Ore., to tell running back Thomas Tyner to report to the 12th annual game in San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 5.
"The U.S. Army All-American Bowl provides the Army with the opportunity to recognize top athletes across the country while engaging with American youth, enhancing the importance of leadership, education, and teamwork," said Huntley, the USAREC DCG. "U.S. Army All-American Bowl athletes possess a similar set of strengths to Army Strong Soldiers and we're proud and excited to kick-off this year's Selection Tour and welcome these outstanding students to the 2013 game."
In addition to the 90 top-ranked players selected, the Bowl also recognizes 125 of the Nation's top high school marching band and color guard members who perform during halftime during the game. The Selection Tour will continue traveling across the country through the fall recognizing each player and band member at ceremonies in their hometowns.
The 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl is live on NBC at 1 p.m., EST. Since 2001, the game has showcased the talents of hundreds of the top-ranked high school football players in the country including standouts such as Andrew Luck, Ndamukong Suh, Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez.

William Shatner Steals Space Shuttle to Search for Reborn Leonard Nimoy
NewsThump — An arrest warrant has been issued for Star Trek actor William Shatner, who is reported to have stolen the space shuttle Enterprise. It is believed that Shatner carried out the audacious theft with a group of friends after claiming they just wanted to "look the old bird over" before she was broken up.
NASA are reported to be incredulous about the crime, as the Enterprise was retired from service in 2012. A spokesperson said, "We just don't understand how they got her going. She's a relic on a one-way trip to the scrap heap."
Shatner and his crew – reported to comprise Nichelle Nichols, George Takei and Walter Koenig – are understood to believe that Leonard Nimoy will have been reborn on a new, Edenic alien world as suggested in a 1984 documentary.

I saw that chef! He asked us how our food was at the end of the night ^_^
Kindai is really small, so you have to put your name in...gamble while waiting lol

The place is really pretty!!!!
omfg that looks awesome. i want a good sushi dinner NOW :D. hehe yes that first picture was a take on chirashi sushi (sashimi over a bowl of sushi rice) in hawaii we have what's called a "poke don". Poke is a hawaiian dish with raw tuna pieces mixed with green onions, a lil chopped sweet onion, and seaweed mixed with a soy sauce mixture. Basically it's like ceviche (sp?) but a different flavoring. If it's put over rice like that, we call it a "poke don" cuz it's like oyakodonburi (chicken and egg over rice). LOL we make up our own names in hawaii :P. gah sorry this comment is so long, your food pictures made me so excited/hungry.ReplyDelete
@Christian poke don! now I remember :) thank you :)ReplyDelete

OMG, *drools* that sashimi and sushi bowl looks sooooo good! I've never had or tried any or these dishes. I def. will try, next time I go eat out for sushi.
I'm so scared to eat the raw quail egg on masago nigiri. I guess I'll only try the raw quail eggs at really nice restaurants only. Scare of the risks of contracting salmonella from raw eggs =( (I'm such a Hypochondria!)
Was the salmon roe really really sweet? I've always wonder how tasteful is it, with no sushi rice? Are you one of those ppls that can eat shrimp heads? ;P Seems like you're having a great time. I've NEVER stepped inside a casino before, nor do I know how to gamble anything =(
That's for posting up these yummy photos!

Sustainable Design
The structure of our teams is a key component to our success
Sustainable design may be defined as a design which seeks to reduce the negative impacts on the environment, health and comfort for building occupants, and improve building performance. The general concepts behind sustainable design are to reduce overall consumption of non-renewable resources such as energy and water, minimize waste of these resources, and provide healthy and productive environments for building occupants. The sustainable design concept may also be referred to as "Built Green", "High Efficiency Building", "High Performance Building" and "Environmentally Friendly". A common method used to evaluate the sustainability of a design is the LEED Rating System. The LEED rating system has been developed by the US Green Building Council as a means of "providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts." (usgbc, www.usgbc.org). Envision Mechanical Engineers provide sustainable design using: Water Efficiency:
- Design incorporating low flow and ultra low flow plumbing fixtures to reduce a buildings overall water consumption.
- Design to reduce the overall energy consumption and optimize energy utilization through the use of energy recovery, thermal storage, and high efficiency heating and cooling systems.
- Reduce the use of environmentally damaging refrigerants by specifying low impact refrigerants in mechanical equipment.
- Design to improve and maintain minimum indoor air quality and improved ventilation.
- Design to reduce an occupant's exposure to chemicals and pollutant sources through source isolation and providing space exhaust.
- Controllability of Systems by specifying space temperature controls which are specific to individual environments, and offer building occupants control over their environment.
- Thermal Comfort Design by providing a design which achieves thermal comfort for building occupants including strategies such as displacement ventilation, radiant floor heating, chilled beams, and de-stratification systems.

Criterion Collection comes to iTunes, sans extras
Posted by Aubrey Sitterson on
It used to be that in order to watch the Criterion Collection's lovingly put-together film releases, you had to save up the 40 bones required to buy one at the store, or patiently explain to a confused relative why it's important to get that particular version of a film, not the cheaper one without the big black bars on the top and bottom. These days, however, you can watch Criterion's selection of restored films online via Hulu, and now on iTunes as well.
Though Criterion Collection films first started showing up on iTunes this month with little-to-no fanfare, the eagle-eyed folks at Slashfilm were quick to pick up on the exciting news. Users can rent a film for $2.99, which while not Red Box cheap is still pretty reasonable considering the higher average quality of Criterion releases. Or, you can purchase a digital version of a flick for only $14.99, which is way beneath the average price for physical versions. There are a few caveats, however…
First up is the fact that as of the writing of this article, there are only fifty Criterion Collection films available to buy or rent. That should be more than enough to keep you and your cinephile friends busy over the next couple months, but it's nowhere near a full sampling of the company's expansive line.
Perhaps more troubling to fans of the Criterion Collection, however, is the lack of special features on these digital versions. Yes, the beautiful restorations of classic films is a huge reason people shell out for Criterion Collection releases, and it should be pretty obvious that by purchasing a digital version you're giving up on what is typically pretty impressive packaging and design-work. But we're guessing that for a lot of film-lovers, a Criterion Collection release sans commentary, behind-the-scenes looks and other special features, isn't much of a Criterion Collection release at all.
What do you think? Are you still interested in Criterion Collection releases when they don't come with all of the special features goodies to which you're accustomed? Tell us in the comments below or on Facebook and Twitter.

Uninstall Cryptolocker-v3 virus
The threats of Cryptolocker-v3 ransomware
Cryptolocker-v3 virus is a new and serious threat that might be delivered straight to your email box. According to virus researchers, this ransomware is an updated version of Teslacrypt virus. So, you can be sure that the virus is dangerous and powerful. Once Cryptolocker-v3 finds its way to the PC, it starts scanning computer's system and encrypting the files. The virus uses a strong RSA-2048 algorithm for data encryption. Unfortunately, the virus is capable of corrupting all popular files. Bear in mind that ransomware-type viruses typically leave those files that are necessary for running the computer, because crooks need you to pay the ransom. Security specialists claim that hackers rarely give decryption keys or restore locked files after the payment. So, paying the ransom is just a waste of money. Nowadays users should always be prepared for ransomware attacks because many viruses are lurking on the Internet. So, if you are afraid of losing your pictures, movie or music collection, important documents, and other files, you have to make backup copies and store them in your preferred external devices. Moreover, you should install and regularly update reputable anti-malware program. If you haven't decided which one to choose, give Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego a try. The same software might be handy if you have already encountered the virus and look for tools to remove Cryptolocker-v3 too.
Many victims claim that before receiving a scary red box called ransom note, they noticed that computers became slow and sluggish. Some users received various warnings and notifications related to computer's state, and the last message was the ransom note. The authors of Cryptolocker-v3 virus have a weird sense of humour. They start a ransom note with saying that victims' files were 'safely' encrypted. Honestly, ransomware and safety have nothing in common. The crooks briefly explain why users cannot access their data and tell how they have to pay the ransom. The chance to get back your files costs 1 Bitcoin (approximately 460 GBP). Also, hackers give victims a deadline for making the payment and encourage them don't waste their time. As they say: 'the sooner you do, the more chances are left to recover the files.' Please, don't pay the ransom and concentrate on Cryptolocker-v3 removal. Later, you might find other solutions to restore encrypted files.
How does ransomware infiltrate computer's system?
Virus researchers haven't found one particular way how Cryptolocker-v3 malware gets into computer's system. All ransomware-type viruses use the same methods of distribution: malicious email campaigns, fake alerts, Trojans, exploit kits, etc. However, if you're using a strong anti-malware program, it should protect computer from malicious files and Trojans. But you should still be careful with suspicious emails. The hackers find many different ways to trick users and persuade them to download an attached file. For example, they pretend to be representatives from banks, governmental institutions, or other reliable companies. So, users without any fear download the file and allow the virus to enter the computer. When you receive an email that asks you to open a provided link or attached file, always double check the information and content the institution directly.
Cryptolocker-v3 removal and data recovery
Ransomware viruses cause serious damage, but you can fix it. Firstly, you have to remove Cryptolocker-v3 from your PC, and then concentrate on file recovery. The majority of ransomware viruses block anti-malware programs and prevents from full system scan. If you face the same problem, reboot your computer to Safe Mode with Networking and then try to run the software again. At the end of the article, we provided detailed Cryptolocker-v3 removal instructions. Unfortunately, anti-malware programs do not recover encrypted files. For file decryption, you can try using R-studio or Photorec. However, if you have backup copies, you can restore corrupted files from them.
To remove Cryptolocker-v3 virus, follow these steps:
Eliminate Cryptolocker-v3 using Safe Mode with Networking
Step 1: Restart your computer in Safe Mode with Networking
Windows 7 / Vista / XP

- Once your computer starts, select Enable Safe Mode with Networking from the list of options in Startup Settings.
Step 2: Remove Cryptolocker-v3
Sign in to your account and launch any Internet browser. Download a legitimate anti-malware software, for instance, Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego. Make sure you update it to the latest version and then run a full system scan with it to detect and eliminate all malicious components of the ransomware to remove Cryptolocker-v3 completely.
If your ransomware does not allow you to access Safe Mode with Networking, please follow the instructions provided below.
