Bi-Wise Market acquired by Associated Grocers
Union Leader staff
— The owners of Bi-Wise Market in Allenstown have agreed to sell their business to Associated Grocers of New England.
Bi-Wise, founded in 1966 by "Mighty" Mike Genest, has been run by the Genest family ever since, noted Mike Bourgoine, president and CEO of Associated Grocers of New England. It is located near the intersections for Routes 3 and 28 in Allenstown.
"Since that time, Bi-Wise has operated as an independent, community based business," Bourgoine said in a news release. "They have made Bi-Wise the business cornerstone of the Allenstown and Pembroke communities and fully support local civic and charitable activities." Bi-Wise has been a member store of AG New England for more than 35 years, so it's a logical transition to sell to an organization that supports independent retail grocers, Mark Genest said."This is the best thing that could have happened to the grocery store, its employees and the community," he said.
AG New England supplies more than 650 stores across New England and into the Upstate New York/Albany area from its distribution center in Pembroke. AG New England is owned entirely by Independent Retail Grocers as members of a cooperative, and is the largest retailer-owned, wholesale grocery distribution center in New England.
In December 2012, AG New England acquired another long-time local grocer, Sully's Superette in Goffstown, which opened there in 1987.
Its original location, on South Main Street in Manchester, was established in 1937 and now the site of a CVS pharmacy.

Thanks for the reply...I have run BG 44K through the fuel system. Just one can though. Maybe I should try a couple more.
I know you have a Forge, but just for giggles and elimination, change out the DV and try it again.
For every additional 50HP over stock, a general rule is:--1 heat range colder--gap shrinks by .004So, a chipped 1.8T would make good use ofa plug one range colder gapped to .028>Stock spark plugs NGK PFR6Q stock gap .032"--Common replacementsAutolite 3923Autolite 3922 (one heat range colder)Denso Iridium IK20Denso Iridium IK22 (one heat range colder)Bosch F7LTCRNGK BKR7E (Race plug, one range colder)*avoid BKR7E-11 as the factory gap is too large, .042*Reference: From NGK's FAQ: Spark Plug Gap"Another consideration that should be taken into account is the extent of any modifications that you may have made to the engine. As an example, when you raise compression or add forced induction (a turbo system, nitrous or supercharger kit) you must reduce the gap (about .004" for every 50 hp you add). However, when you add a high power ignition system (such as those offered by MSD, Crane, Nology) you can open the gap from .002-.005"."Torque Settings for your plugs(referenced from the Autolite website)Thread Diameter......................Aluminum Heads.................................Pound Feet........Newton Meters14mm Crush Gasket...15 - 22 lb. ft.........20 - 30 nm
So this three Golf GLSs we've got on RMCB5, neat! I'm feeling outnumbered.
No no, i won't do it! It's a GTI!:twisted: GTI :twisted:Get away from that phone. Don't even THINK about an intervention.
So the plug gap fixed the hiccup? Or did you not have the similar problem?I didn't have time after work yesterday to work on it, hopefully today.
1.Chips- A chip is the most common modifacation for the 1.8t. There are many companies with chips currently out but the 5 biggest are GIAC, APR, Neuspeed, REVO and Upsolute (Those are in no particlar order) I'll try to be as objective as possible here. Each are going to offer a significant power increase and choosing a chip can sometimes be a tough decision so you have to chose what fits your needs. First off try to get a ride in as many different chipped cars as possible so you can get a feel for each chip and its power delivery. I won't say who has the most power cause they are all close but I'll go over the benefits of each. APR has EMCS which basically lets you use your cruise control buttons to switch between different chipped modes, such as stock, chipped, valet, and race. They also have a lockout function, a fault code erase function. APR also has direct port programming as well now which means that the ECU is flashed with the chipped program through the cars on board diagnostic port. They have dealers throghout the country and also offer many other products such as exhausts and turbo upgrades. GIAC also has stock mode, a race program, and regular chipped program. GIAC currently has 2 ways in which they can chip your ECU. They can either install a socketed chip that contains 1 program or they can install a socket that contains multiple programs. IBE chip switch gives the owner of the car the ability to switch between stock, chipped, race, and valet I beleive with a small remote. GIAC has been around a very long time and they also have dealers thruout the country. GIAC also has done the programming for the K04 kit, and will be doing the upcoming Dubwerks turbo kit, so he also has other products out there. Upsolute is a nationwide firm but they do not have dealers through the country, instead they usually have a representative in the state itself who does their chipping. They do not use a socket and instead just reflash your chip with the chip program and resolder it to the board. They offer to return you to stock for dealer visits though. I'm Not positive but I think there is a small fee for this. Upsolute now also has a chip switch program for older 1.8t's and for AWD motor's. Another major chip tuner that has been around since the beginning of the watercooled tuning industry is Neuspeed. They also flash the chip the same way as Upsolute does so if the ECU is opened it's appearence remains stock. Neuspeed currently has chips for all 1.8t model's and they also offer a K04 upgrade for the B5 Passat's, Beetle and AWD Jetta's and Golf's. Neuspeed also is CARB exempt on all of their chips which no other chip manufactorer is. Meaning their chips are totally street legal. This is a big plus for people in states that are very strict when it comes to mods and warranties. REVO is a newer company in the tuning world but they seem to have an execellant product. REVO gives the ability to the cars owner to change settings on a chip if you pruchases their SPS device. This device lets you turn up the boost, advance timing this way you can tune your car for what you are doing. They also offer a program with a 3bar FPR as well as a 4bar FPR which is supposed to make more power. Those devices are optional and you can just purchase a regular chipped program from them if you do not feel comfortable nor have the desire to increase boost or advance timing.What chiptuners do to your ECU. courtesy of Andy Smith.http://www.giacusa.comhttp://www.goapr.comhttp://www.upsolute.comhttp://www.neuspeed.comhttp://www.revotechnik.com
Man... that reminds me i need to get an exhaust installed and get that 4bar FPR and upgrade my REVO software.Andy? When are you going to be around, I wana hear that Milltek exhaust and make some decisions!

Quantitative Methods: An Introduction for Business Management
Quantitative Methods: An Introduction for Business Management
Jan 2012
912 pages
DescriptionAn accessible introduction to the essential quantitative methods for making valuable business decisions
Quantitative methods-research techniques used to analyze quantitative data-enable professionals to organize and understand numbers and, in turn, to make good decisions. Quantitative Methods: An Introduction for Business Management presents the application of quantitative mathematical modeling to decision making in a business management context and emphasizes not only the role of data in drawing conclusions, but also the pitfalls of undiscerning reliance of software packages that implement standard statistical procedures. With hands-on applications and explanations that are accessible to readers at various levels, the book successfully outlines the necessary tools to make smart and successful business decisions.
Progressing from beginner to more advanced material at an easy-to-follow pace, the author utilizes motivating examples throughout to aid readers interested in decision making and also provides critical remarks, intuitive traps, and counterexamples when appropriate.
The book begins with a discussion of motivations and foundations related to the topic, with introductory presentations of concepts from calculus to linear algebra. Next, the core ideas of quantitative methods are presented in chapters that explore introductory topics in probability, descriptive and inferential statistics, linear regression, and a discussion of time series that includes both classical topics and more challenging models. The author also discusses linear programming models and decision making under risk as well as less standard topics in the field such as game theory and Bayesian statistics. Finally, the book concludes with a focus on selected tools from multivariate statistics, including advanced regression models and data reduction methods such as principal component analysis, factor analysis, and cluster analysis.
The book promotes the importance of an analytical approach, particularly when dealing with a complex system where multiple individuals are involved and have conflicting incentives. A related website features Microsoft Excel® workbooks and MATLAB® scripts to illustrate concepts as well as additional exercises with solutions.
Quantitative Methods is an excellent book for courses on the topic at the graduate level. The book also serves as an authoritative reference and self-study guide for financial and business professionals, as well as readers looking to reinforce their analytical skills.

Two deserving law students at UC Hastings College of the Law have received $10,000 Pfaff Trial Lawyer Scholarships from a generous alumnus.
Melissa Nold '14 and Rising 3L Christa Conry were selected based on their excellent course work in trial advocacy class work and their commitment to helping clients in civil trial work.
Bruce Pfaff '79 said he owes a substantial debt of gratitude to the law professors and fellow students who helped educate him while he attended UC Hastings: "I hope that this scholarship program will help students who have aptitude and desire to work as civil trial lawyers achieve their goals by offsetting the high cost of legal education."
Nold is currently preparing to take the July bar. She spent the last two years of law school working as a law clerk for the Law Offices of John L. Burris, working on Federal Civil Rights cases related to excessive force and police misconduct. She is the single parent of three children.
Conry is a staff editor on the Hastings Women's Law Journal. Last summer, she interned at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission where she worked on pregnancy discrimination cases, among other issues.
"The recipients are two very brilliant women who I believe will make excellent trial lawyers," Pfaff said.
Two Pfaff Trial Lawyer Scholarships are to be awarded each year to UC Hastings students.
Pfaff has been a trial lawyer since 1979, representing people injured or killed by wrongful conduct. He started his own practice, Pfaff, Gill & Ports, in Chicago in 1991.
In six cases, his clients have each received more than $10 million in jury verdicts. He is one of a handful of Illinois lawyers who have had such trial success. In addition to representing clients and managing the law firm, Pfaff writes Friend of the Court briefs for the Illinois Trial Lawyers' Association and for the American Board of Trial Advocates. He has been inducted as a Fellow of the International Academy of Trial Lawyers, the International Society of Barristers, and the American Board of Trial Advocates.

|Identical to original buckle, but also works well as generic replacement for any other buckle. This one is better than most buckles I have seen, as the clip is fastened such that it gets flattened against the cuff, not bend away from it as most other buckles I have seen. You can easily fit this to any boot by drilling the small holes for the bolts. The counter pieces have cover the edge of the holes and make it look neat. You can simply cut the strap to the right length for smaller cuffs.

The High Line's planting design is inspired by the self-seeded landscape that grew up between rail tracks after the trains stopped running in the 1980s. Today, the High Line includes more than 300 species of perennials, grasses, shrubs, and trees — each chosen for their hardiness, adaptability, diversity, and seasonal variation in color and texture. Some of the species that originally grew on the High Line's rail bed are reflected in the park landscape today.
This week we share with you one of our gardeners' current favorites.
Purple Smoke wild indigo, Baptisia 'Purple Smoke,' is a cross between Baptisia australis and White Wild Indigo, Baptisia alba and combines some of the best features of both parents: soft purple flowers, dusty charcoal-colored stems, and gray-green foliage. This small genus of plants, Baptisia, is native to North America and was once used as a dye by early settlers. This history gave the plants both their common name "false indigo" or "wild indigo," and their genus name, Baptisia, from the Greek wordbapto, to dip. While the color of the dye is similar, these plants should not be confused with true indigo, Indigofera tinctoria which is native to tropical climates.
Plant enthusiasts will recognize the characteristic foliage and blooms of Purple Smoke wild indigo which are common to many plants in the Fabaceae or Leguminosae family, commonly known as the legume, pea, or bean family. Like its agricultural cousins soybeans, peanuts, and alfalfa, Purple Smoke wild indigo hosts nitrogen-fixing bacteria in its root system. These bacteria take nitrogen in the air and convert it into usable nitrogen for the plant, eventually being passed into the ecosystem when the plant dies, providing valuable nutrients to other plants. For this reason, legumes are an important part of agricultural crop rotation and help keep soil healthy without the use of fertilizers.WHERE TO SEE THIS PLANT

Firefighters were still searching for answers as to what caused a 10-acre brush fire northwest of Snydersville on Sunday afternoon.
Firefighters were still searching for answers as to what caused a 10-acre brush fire northwest of Snydersville on Sunday afternoon.
"Don't know much of how it started, or what's going on yet," said Fire Chief Les Wolcott of Jackson Township Volunteer Fire Co.
A state helicopter hovered above the smoke as it rose from the treetops along Twin Pine Road. A portion of the roadway was closed to traffic.
"The helicopter actually hit the header pretty good," said Wolcott, who arrived on scene to an 8-foot fire header spreading across the mountain ridge. "He's probably on his 20th bucket he's dropping here."
In addition to Jackson Township, fire responders from Pocono Township, Blue Ridge Hook & Ladder Fire Co., West End Fire Co., Central Pocono Ambulance and Marshalls Creek Fire Co. came to the scene. There were no reported injuries as of early Sunday afternoon.
An air tanker made an initial drop of 3,000 gallons of water that included flame retardant, according to Wolcott.
By 5:30 p.m., there were fire crews on the ground battling the flames.
"Between all the companies, I bet we're pushing close to 75 to 80 people," said Wolcott. Firefighters were carrying backpack blowers and coming at the fire from the top of the mountain. "It's in the middle of nowhere."
A large amount of smoke was encroaching on the area of a cul-de-sac near Chestnut Drive, the scanner said. A helicopter was called to the scene.
The call came in a little after 4 p.m. Sunday. Soon after, a request was made for more manpower and a brush truck on Twin Pine Road near Running Valley Road in Jackson Township, according to Monroe County Control Center.

Applying Tricky Tangent and Secant Lines
Lesson 7 of 10
Objective: SWBAT apply properties of tangent and secant lines to circle questions.
Big Idea: Students will actively apply theorems about tangent and secant lines to circle questions with scaffolded computer questions to review entire circles unit.
Resources (4)
Write an Email Review
Write an Email:
To review what students have learned in this lesson, there is an opportunity for students to write an email to a classmate who is absent. In this email, students have a chance to explain how and when they know to apply certain rules to the three specific cases covered in today's lesson. After a quiet time of writing, you can call on a volunteer to read their email or collect this writing activity.
One way to differentiate this activity is to ask students to write their own question based on a case (or maybe all three cases!) that is covered in the notes. Then, students can exchange questions and practice or answer their own questions.
Resources (1)
Computer Lab Review/Homework:
The following website provides free practice questions for a host of geometry topics. Use this link.
The specific link above goes to practice questions (in yellow) for all of the major concepts covered. You can review these topics ahead of time and then select the ones that you'd like students to work on. This is a great activity to do in the computer lab or use with a lap top cart in the classroom!
I also typically assign student to work on this as homework, and for students without internet at home, you can print the assignment easily from the website.
Exit Ticket:
Students will complete the exit ticket before leaving class which asks them to find the length of a segment using of the application cases studied in this lesson.

The appetite suppressant is considered as the best weight loss product that comes in forms of a pill or a patch. There are others like those that prevent fat and carbohydrate absorption and calorie burners that can be considered as the best weight loss product. It will all depend on your lifestyle, overall health, age, and gender on which best weight loss product is right for you.
Types of weight loss products
1. Appetite suppressants - These can prevent you from overeating, giving in to cravings, and unnecessary binging.
weight loss products, fast weight loss, best weight loss supplement,
2. Burners - They burn carbs, calories, and fat by increasing your metabolic rate and at the same time, giving you more energy boost.
3. Blockers - These prevent your body from absorbing fats and carbohydrates and expelling them from your system through your bowel movement.
Consider these
There are a lot of factors to consider before picking out the best weight loss product that can effectively help you in shedding off those unwanted pounds.
1. There are products that cannot show immediate results but they promise not to have any side effects.
2. Results can differ from person to person. This is in the case of many products, so even if you are using the same best weight loss product as your friend, you may not find yourself losing the same kind of weight as they are.
3. Don't believe everything written on the label especially if the weight loss product is not prescribed by your doctor. "All-natural" and "herbal" does not necessarily mean that the product is entirely safe.
4. Consult with your physician before taking any weight loss product so prevent side effects that can cause serious damage to your body.
Fast results require additional effort
You can take diet pills while wearing a weight loss patch for faster results. You can also try exercising in subtle ways like walking or climbing stairs instead of taking the bus or using the elevator. Experts also believe that proper diet and exercise is still the best way to lose weight so even if you are using weight loss products, try to put some effort into doing the tried and tested ways for losing weight.

Boone Central outs Indians from playoffs
BROKEN BOW -- The Broken Bow Indians were eliminated from the 2010 Class C1 playoffs last night with a 21-9 loss to Boone Central. The Indians allowed Boone Central 21 first half points and were unable to overcome the deficit in the second half. Boone Central took advantage of a dejected Indian team that had a play negated because of an inadvertent whistle by the officials. The Indians turned the ball over to the Boone Central offense who drove down the field for their first score. The Cardinal offense found early success throwing the ball against the Indian defense which led to two more touchdowns in the first half.In the second half, Broken Bow held the Cardinals on three downs forcing them to punt. The Indians then moved the ball inside the Cardinal 10-yard line. The Indians made two mistakes in the red zone, the first was being penalized for holding but the second hurt the most, an interception off a tipped ball at the goal line turning the ball over to the Cardinals at the 2-yard line. On the next play, Broken Bow pushed their way through the blockers forcing the Cardinal quarterback to throw the ball into the ground. The play resulted in and intentional grounding penalty by Boone Central and since it happened in the end zone the Indians were rewarded with a 2-pt. safety.The Indians received the free kick and drove the ball 72 yards before being held on fourth and goal at the 3-yard line. Boone Central kept changed their game plan to strictly running the ball. The Indians forced the Cardinals to punt giving them possession in Cardinal territory. The Indians went for the end zone on the very next play with a pass that fell into the hands of a Cardinal receiver at the 2-yard line. Late in the game, The Indians finally crossed the goal line when Adam Pracht scored on a 17-yard blast up the middle. Time ran out on the Indians and their season.

In less than an hour, you can build a PivotTable in Excel that combines data from multiple tables. The first part of this tutorial steps you through data import and exploration. In the second half, you'll use the Power Pivot add-in to refine the data model that lives behind the report, learning how to add calculations, hierarchies, and optimizations for Power View reporting.
Note: This article describes data models in Excel 2013. However, the same data modeling and Power Pivot features introduced in Excel 2013 also apply to Excel 2016.
Import some data
Before you can create a PivotTable, you'll need some data. Let's get some sales data from the sample database you downloaded.
Download sample data (ContosoV2) for this tutorial. See Get sample data for DAX and Data Model tutorials for details. Extract and save the data files in a location that's easily accessible, such as Downloads or My Documents.
In Excel, open a blank workbook.
Click Data > Get External Data > From Access.
Go to the folder that contains the sample data files and select ContosoSales.
Click Open. Because you are connecting to a database file that contains multiple tables, the Select Table dialog appears so that you can choose which tables to import.
In Select Table, check Enable selection of multiple tables.
Choose all of the tables and click OK.
In Import Data, click PivotTable Report and click OK.
What happened?
You might not have realized it yet, but you've just created a data model. It's created automatically when you import or work with multiple tables simultaneously in the same PivotTable. The model is mostly transparent in Excel, but you can view and modify it directly using the Power Pivot add-in. In Excel, the presence of a data model is evident when you see a collection of tables in the PivotTable Fields list. There are several ways to create a model. See Create a Data Model in Excel for details.
Explore data using a PivotTable
Exploring data is easy when you drag fields to the Values, Columns, and Rows areas on the PivotTable field list.
In the field list, scroll down until you find the FactSales table.
Click SalesAmount. Because this data is numeric, Excel automatically places SalesAmount in the Values area.
In DimDate, drag CalendarYear to Columns.
In DimProductSubcategory, drag ProductSubcategoryName to Rows.
In DimProduct, drag BrandName to Rows, placing it beneath subcategory.
Your PivotTable should look similar to the following screen.
With minimal effort, you now have a basic PivotTable that includes fields from four different tables. What made this task so simple were the pre-existing relationships among the tables. Because table relationships existed in the source, and because you imported all the tables in a single operation, Excel could recreate those relationships in the model.
But what if your data originates from different sources, or is imported at a later time? Typically, you can incorporate new data by creating relationships based on matching columns. In the next step, you'll import additional tables and learn the requirements and steps for creating new relationships.
Add more tables
Learning how to set up table relationships requires that you have some additional, unconnected tables to work with. In this step, you'll get the remaining data used in this tutorial by importing one additional database file and pasting data from two other workbooks.
Add product categories
In the workbook open a new sheet. You'll use it to store additional data.
Click Data > Get External Data > From Access.
Go to the folder that contains the sample data files and select ProductCategories. Click Open.
In Import Data, select Table, and click OK.
Add geography data
Insert another sheet.
From the sample data files, open Geography.xlsx, place the cursor in A1, and then press Ctrl-Shift-End to select all of the data.
Copy the data to the clipboard.
Paste the data into the empty sheet you just added.
Click Format as Table, choosing any style. Formatting the data as a table lets you name it, which will come in handy when you define relationships in a later step.
In Format As Table, verify that My table has headers is selected. Click OK.
Name the table Geography. In Table Tools > Design, type Geography in Table Name.
Close Geography.xlsx to clear it from your workspace.
Add store data
Repeat the previous steps for the Stores.xlsx file, pasting its contents into an empty sheet. Name the table Stores.
You should now have four sheets. Sheet1 contains the PivotTable, Sheet2 contains ProductCategories, Sheet3 contains Geography, and Sheet4 contains Stores. Because you took the time to name each table, the next step, creating relationships, will be much simpler.
Use fields from the newly imported tables
You can immediately begin using fields from the tables you just imported. If Excel cannot determine how to incorporate a field into the PivotTable, you'll be asked to create a table relationship that associates the new table with one that is already part of the model.
At the top of PivotTable Fields, click All to view the complete list of available tables.
Scroll to the bottom of the list. That's where you'll find the new tables you just added.
Expand Stores.
Drag StoreName to the Filters area.
Notice that Excel prompts you to create a relationship. This notification occurs because you've used fields from a table that is unrelated to the model.
Click Create to open the Create Relationship dialog.
In Table, choose FactSales. In the sample data you're using, FactSales contains detailed sales and cost information about Contoso's business, as well as keys to other tables, including store codes that are also present in the Stores.xlsx file you imported in the previous step.
In Column (Foreign), choose StoreKey.
In Related Table, choose Stores.
In Related Column (Primary), choose StoreKey.
Click OK.
Behind the scenes, Excel is building a Data Model that can be used throughout the workbook in any number of PivotTables, PivotCharts, or Power View reports. Fundamental to this model are table relationships that determine navigation and calculation paths used in a PivotTable. In the next task, you'll create relationships manually to connect the data you just imported.
Add relationships
You can systematically create table relationships for all new tables that you import. If you're sharing the workbook with colleagues, having predefined relationships will be appreciated if they don't know the data as well as you do.
When creating relationships manually, you will work with two tables at a time. For each table, you'll choose columns that tell Excel how to look up related rows in another table.
Relate ProductSubcategory to ProductCategory
In Excel, click Data > Relationships > New.
In Table, choose DimProductSubcategory.
In Column (Foreign), choose ProductCategoryKey.
In Related Table, choose Table_ProductCategory.accdb.
In Related Column (Primary), choose ProductCategoryKey.
Click OK.
Close the Manage Relationships dialog.
Add categories to the PivotTable
Although the Data Model has been updated to include additional tables and relationships, the PivotTable isn't using them yet. In this task, you'll add ProductCategory to the PivotTable Fields list.
In PivotTable Fields, click All to show tables that exist in the Data Model.
Scroll to the bottom of the list.
In the Rows area, remove BrandName.
Expand Table_DimProductCategories.accdb.
Drag ProductCategoryName to the Rows area, placing it above ProductSubcategory.
In PivotTable Fields, click Active to verify that the tables you just used are now actively used in the PivotTable.
Checkpoint: Review what you learned
You now have a PivotTable that includes data from multiple tables, several of which you imported in a subsequent step. To pull this data together, you had to create table relationships that Excel uses to correlate the rows. You learned that having columns that provide matching data is essential for looking up related rows. In the sample data files, all of the tables include a column that can be used for this purpose.
Although the PivotTable is functional, you've probably noticed several things that could be improved. The PivotTable Fields List seems to have extra tables (DimEntity) and columns (ETLLoadID) that are unrelated to Contoso's business. And, we still haven't integrated the Geography data.
Next up: View and extend your model with Power Pivot
In the next series of tasks, you'll use the Microsoft Office Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in to extend the model. You'll find that you can create relationships more easily using the Diagram View the add-in provides. You'll also use the add-in to create calculations and hierarchies, hide items that shouldn't be appearing in the field list, and optimize the data for additional reporting.
Note: The Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in is available in Office Professional Plus. See Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in for more information.
Add Power Pivot to the Excel ribbon by enabling the Power Pivot add-in.
Go to File > Options > Add-Ins.
In the Manage box, click COM Add-ins> Go.
Check the Microsoft Office Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel 2013 box, and then click OK.
The ribbon now has a Power Pivot tab.
Add a relationship using Diagram View in Power Pivot
In Excel, click Sheet3 to make it the active sheet. Sheet3 contains the Geography table you imported earlier.
On the ribbon, click Power Pivot > Add to Data Model. This step adds the Geography table to the model. It also opens the Power Pivot add-in, which you'll use to perform the remaining steps in this task.
Notice that the Power Pivot window shows all the tables in the model, including Geography. Click through a couple of tables. In the add-in, you can view all of the data that your model contains.
In the Power Pivot window, in the View section, click Diagram View.
Use the slide bar to resize the diagram so that you can see all objects in the diagram. Notice that two tables are unrelated to the rest of the diagram: DimEntity and Geography.
Right-click DimEntity and click Delete. This table is an artifact from the original database and is not needed in the model.
Zoom in on Geography so that you can view all of its fields. You can use the slider to make the table diagram bigger.
Notice Geography has GeographyKey. This column contains values that uniquely identify each row in the Geography table. Let's find out if other tables in the model also use this key. If they do, we can create a relationship that connects Geography to the rest of the model.
Click Find.
In Find Metadata, type GeographyKey.
Click Find Next several times. You'll notice the GeographyKey shows up in the Geography table and in the Stores table.
Reposition the Geography table so that it is next to Stores.
Drag the GeographyKey column in Stores to the GeographyKey column in Geography. Power Pivot draws a line between the two columns, indicating the relationship.
In this task, you learned a new technique for adding tables and creating relationships. You now have a fully integrated model, with all tables connected and available to the PivotTable in Sheet1.
Tip: In Diagram View, several table diagrams are fully extended, showing columns like ETLLoadID, LoadDate, and UpdateDate. These particular fields are artifacts from the original Contoso data warehouse, added to support data extraction and loading operations. You don't need them in your model. To get rid of them, highlight and right-click the field, and click Delete.
Create a calculated column
In Power Pivot, you can use Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) to add calculations. In this task, you'll calculate total profit, and add calculated column that references data values from other tables. Later, you'll see how to use referenced columns to simplify your model.
In the Power Pivot window, switch back to Data View.
Rename the Table_ProductCategories accdb table to a friendlier name. You'll be referencing this table in the following steps and a shorter name will make the calculations easier to read. Right-click the table name, click Rename, type ProductCategories, and then press Enter.
Select the FactSales table.
Click Design > Columns > Add.
In the formula bar above the table, type the following formula. AutoComplete helps you type the fully qualified names of columns and tables, and lists the functions that are available. You can also just click the column and Power Pivot adds the column name to the formula.
= [SalesAmount] - [TotalCost] - [ReturnAmount]
When you have finished building the formula, press Enter to accept the formula.
Values are populated for all the rows in the calculated column. If you scroll down through the table, you will see that rows can have different values for this column, based on the data that is in each row.
Rename the column by right-clicking CalculatedColumn1 and selecting Rename Column. Type Profit, and then press Enter.
Now select the DimProduct table.
Click Design > Columns > Add.
In the formula bar above the table, type the following formula.
= RELATED(ProductCategories[ProductCategoryName])
The RELATED function returns a value from a related table. In this case, the ProductCategories table includes the names of product categories, which will be useful to have in the DimProduct table when you build a hierarchy that includes category information. For more information about this function, see RELATED Function (DAX).
When you have finished building the formula, press Enter to accept the formula.
Values are populated for all the rows in the calculated column. If you scroll down through the table, you will see that each row now has a Product Category Name.
Rename the column by right-clicking CalculatedColumn1 and selecting Rename Column. Type ProductCategory, and then press Enter.
Click Design > Columns > Add.
In the formula bar above the table, type the following formula, and then press Enter to accept the formula.
= RELATED(DimProductSubcategory[ProductSubcategoryName])
Rename the column by right-clicking CalculatedColumn1 and selecting Rename Column. Type ProductSubcategory, and then press Enter.
Create a hierarchy
Most models include data that is inherently hierarchical. Common examples include calendar data, geographical data, and product categories. Creating hierarchies are useful because you can drag one item (the hierarchy) to a report instead of having to assemble and order the same fields over and over.
In Power Pivot, switch to Diagram View. Expand the DimDate table so that you can more easily see all of its fields.
Press and hold Ctrl and click the CalendarYear, CalendarQuarter and CalendarMonth columns (you will need to scroll down the table).
With the three columns selected, right-click one of them and click Create Hierarchy. A parent hierarchy node, Hierarchy 1, is created at the bottom of the table, and the selected columns are copied under the hierarchy as child nodes.
Type Dates as the name for your new hierarchy.
Add the FullDateLabel column to the hierarchy. Right-click FullDateLabel and select Add to Hierarchy. Choose Date. FullDateLabel contains a full date, including year, month and day. Verify that FullDateLabel appears last in the hierarchy. You now have multilevel hierarchy that includes year, quarter, month, and individual calendar days.
Still in Diagram View, point to the DimProduct table, and then click the Create Hierarchy button in the table header. An empty hierarchy parent node appears at the bottom of the table.
Type Product Categories as the name for your new hierarchy.
To create hierarchy child nodes, drag the ProductCategory and ProductSubcategory onto the hierarchy.
Right-click ProductName and select Add to Hierarchy. Choose Product Categories.
Now that you know a couple of different ways to create a hierarchy, let's use them in the PivotTable.
Go back to Excel.
In Sheet1 (the sheet that contains the PivotTable), remove the fields in the Rows area.
Replace them with the new Product Categories hierarchy in DimProduct.
Similarly, replace CalendarYear in the Columns area with the Dates hierarchy in DimDate.
When you explore the data now, it's easy to see the benefits of using hierarchies. You can independently expand and close different areas of the PivotTable, providing more control over how available space is used. Furthermore, by adding a single hierarchy to both Rows and Columns, you get rich and immediate drill down, without having to stack multiple fields to get a similar effect.
Hide columns
Now that you've created a Product Categories hierarchy and placed it in DimProduct, you no longer need DimProductCategory or DimProductSubcategory in the PivotTable Fields list. In this task, you'll learn how to hide extraneous tables and columns that are taking up room in the PivotTable Fields list. By hiding the tables and columns, you improve the reporting experience without affecting the model that provides data relationships and calculations.
You can hide individual columns, a range of columns, or a whole table. Table and column names are grayed out to reflect that it is hidden to reporting clients that consume the model. Hidden columns are grayed out in the model to indicate their state, but remain visible in the Data View so that you can continue to work with them.
In Power Pivot, make sure Data View is selected.
In the tabs at the bottom, right click DimProductSubcategory and select Hide from Client Tools.
Repeat for ProductCategories.
Open DimProduct.
Right-click the following columns and click Hide from Client Tools:
Multi-select adjacent columns. Start with ClassID and continue to ProductSubcategory at the end. Right-click to hide them.
Repeat for other tables, removing IDs, keys, or other details that you won't use in this report.
Switch back to Excel to Sheet 1 with the PivotTable Fields list to see the difference. The number of tables is reduced and DimProduct includes only those items that you're more likely to use when analyzing sales.
Create a Power View report
PivotTables are not the only type of report that benefits from a Data Model. Using the same model you just built, you can add a Power View sheet to try out some of the layouts it provides.
In Excel, click Insert > Power View.
Note: If this is the first time you're using Power View on this machine, you're prompted to enable the add-in and install Silverlight first.
In Power View Fields, click the arrow next to the FactSales table, and click SalesAmount.
Expand the Geography table and click RegionCountryName.
In the ribbon, click Map.
A map report appears. Drag a corner to resize it. On the map, blue circles of varying size indicate sales performance for different countries or regions.
Optimize for Power View reporting
Making a few small changes to your model will result in more intuitive responses when designing a Power View report. In this task, you will add web site URLs for several manufacturers, and then categorize that data as a Web URL so the URL address shows up as a link.
As a first step, add URLs to your workbook.
In Excel, open a new sheet and copy these values:
Contoso, LTD
Adventure Works
Fabrikam, Inc.
Format the cells as a table, and then name the table URL.
Create a relationship between URL and the table that contains manufacturer names, DimProduct:
Click Data > Relationships. The Create Relationship dialog appears.
Click New.
In Table, select DimProduct.
In Column, select Manufacturer.
In Related Table, select URL.
In Related Column (Primary), select ManufacturerID.
To compare before and after results, start a new Power View report and add FactSales | SalesAmount, dimProduct | Manufacturer, and URL | ManufacturerURL to a report. Notice that the URLs show up as static text.
Rendering a URL as an active hyperlink requires categorization. To categorize a column, you'll use Power Pivot.
In Power Pivot, open URL.
Select ManufacturerURL.
Click Advanced > Reporting Properties > Data Category: Uncategorized.
Click the down arrow.
Select Web URL.
In Excel, click Insert > Power View.
In Power View Fields, select FactSales | SalesAmount, dimProduct | Manufacturer, and URL | ManufacturerURL. This time, the URLs show up as actual hyperlinks.
Other Power View optimizations include defining a default field set for each table and setting properties that determine whether rows of repeating data are aggregated or listed independently. See Configure default field set for Power View reports and Configure table behavior properties for Power View reports for more information.
Create calculated fields
In the second task, Explore data using a PivotTable, you clicked on the SalesAmount field in the PivotTable Fields list. Because SalesAmount is a numeric column, it was automatically placed into the Values area of the PivotTable. Sum of SalesAmount was then ready to calculate sales amounts for whatever filters are to be applied. In this case, no filters at first, but then CalendarYear, ProductSubcategoryName, and BrandName.
What you really did was create an implicit calculated field, making it easy to analyze sales amounts from the FactSales table against other fields such as product category, region, and dates. Implicit calculated fields are created by Excel when you drag a field to the Values area or when you click on a numeric field, like you did with SalesAmount. Implicit calculated fields are formulas that use standard aggregation functions such as SUM, COUNT, and AVERAGE, created automatically for you.
There are other types of calculated fields too. You can create explicit calculated fields in Power Pivot. Unlike an implicit calculated field, which can only be used in the PivotTable they were created, explicit calculated fields can be used in any PivotTable in the workbook, or by any report that uses the Data Model as a data source. With explicit calculated fields, created in Power Pivot, you can use AutoSum to automatically create calculated fields using standard aggregations, or you can create your own by using a formula created using Data Analysis Expressions (DAX).
As you can imagine, creating calculated fields can help you analyze your data in immense and powerful ways, so let's get started learning how to create them.
Creating calculated fields in Power Pivot is easy when you use AutoSum.
In the FactSales table, click on the Profit column.
Click Calculations > AutoSum. Notice a new calculated field named Sum of Profit was automatically created in the cell in the Calculation Area directly beneath the Profit column.
In Excel, in Sheet1, in the field list, in FactSales, click Sum of Profit.
That's it! That is all it takes to create a calculated field using a standard aggregation in Power Pivot. As you can see, in just a couple of minutes, you created a SUM of Profit calculated field and added it to the PivotTable, making it easy to analyze profits depending on the filters applied. In this case, you see Sum of Profit filtered by the Product Category and Dates hierarchies.
But, what if you need to do some more detailed analysis, like number of sales for a particular channel, product, or category? For that you will need to create another calculated field that counts the number of rows, one for each sale in the FactSales table, depending on the filters applied.
In the FactSales table, click on the SalesKey column.
In Calculations, click the down arrow on AutoSum > Count.
Rename the new calculated field by clicking on Count of SalesKey in the calculation area and then in the formula bar, change Count of SalesKey to just Count, and then press Enter. Unlike calculated columns, calculated field names are included as part of the DAX formula.
In Excel, in Sheet1, in the field list, in FactSales, click Count.
Notice a new column, Count is added to the PivotTable showing the number of sales depending on the filters applied. Just like with the Sum of Profit calculated field, you see Count filtered by the Product Category and Dates hierarchies.
Let's create another. This time, you will create a calculated field that calculates the percentage of total sales for a particular context or filter. However, unlike the previous calculated fields you created by using AutoSum, this time you will manually enter a formula.
In the FactSales table, in the Calculation Area, click an empty cell. Tip: The top left cell is great place to start placing your calculated fields. It makes them easier to find. You can move around any calculated field in the Calculation Area.
In the formula bar, type and use IntelliSense to create the following formula: Percentage of All Products:=[Count]/CALCULATE([Count], ALL(DimProduct))
Press ENTER to accept the formula.
In Excel, in Sheet1, in the field list, in FactSales, click Percentage of All Products.
In the PivotTable, multi-select the Percentage of All Products columns.
On the Home tab, click Number > Percentage. Use two decimal places to format each new column.
What this new calculated field does is calculate the percentage of total sales for a given filter context. In this case, our filter context is still the Product Category and Dates hierarchies. You can see for instance, computers as a percentage of total product sales have increased over the years.
Creating formulas for both calculated columns and calculated fields will be fairly easy for you if you are familiar with creating Excel formulas. Whether you are familiar with Excel formulas or not, a great place to learn the basics of DAX formulas is by stepping through the lessons in QuickStart: Learn DAX Basics in 30 Minutes.

NEW ORLEANS — He didn't race around the floor, head on a swivel, looking for someone, anyone, to hug, the way Jim Valvano once did.
But it was the kind of moment that would tug at any man's heart, even John Calipari's, the moment when you climb a ladder inside the Superdome with your proud father watching and cut down the nets with your young Kentucky players and they play "My Old Kentucky Home."
The moment when, finally, that One Shining Moment belongs to you, because you have won The Big One.
"This is not about me," Calipari said again on the podium after Kentucky 67, Kansas 59. "This is about the Big Blue Nation."
Then what sounded like the entire state of Kentucky roared. Calipari held the championship trophy in his hands and his players began tousling his immovable black hair. It was 12:04 a.m. when Calipari climbed the blue ladder and snipped a strand of the net and waved with his right hand at no one in particular and then looked up from the confetti-filled floor and watched his "One Shining Moment" video and then rushed off the court to hug supporters in the first row of the stands.
Now they can throw a Caliparty across the Bluegrass State — and pray it isn't a farewell party.
Calipari beat Bill Self and Kansas this time and shook off forever the monkey he refused to acknowledge was on his back, proved there is no coach better to steer the recruits he corrals with a charismatic gift few in his profession own.
Yet there is always another challenge for men with egos like his, men who do not fear failure anywhere, anytime. Always an elephant in the room. Always an ambition you can be the one who stands on the Broadway stage and delivers the first championship since 1973 to the New York Knicks.
In other words: Now that Calipari has won his national championship … now what?
He has been telling anyone who chooses to listen that he is blessed to have this dream job, in a place where basketball is a religion and he is now the Pope, but they all say that until the next dream job comes along.
If James Dolan makes Calipari an offer he can't refuse, can he refuse it?
Does he want to try to be another Adolph Rupp, or does he yearn to prove to the basketball world his unfulfilling stint with the Nets when he was a young man in a hurry was an aberration and be another Red Holzman?
The Knicks should make the call.
And Calipari should politely decline.
He is the king of his castle, and they will let him ride in the Derby if that's what it would take to keep him.
He doesn't need to be Saint Knick.
Ain't Knick instead.
He may never have the kind of Dream Team he trotted out last night. Imagine the 1969-70 Knicks with Bill Russell at center. Or Anthony Davis, for that matter.
Davis took care of the defensive end with six blocks and 16 rebounds, and the rest of the won-and-doners took care of the rest. All those egos checked at the door. All that mental toughness when a Kansas tornado touched down in the second half, and had Calipari reliving his nightmare of 2008, when his Memphis team choked away a nine-point lead and the national title to Kansas in the last 2:12.
Calipari can take his bows today. He is more than a great recruiter. He is a great coach. Who no longer has to hear he is college basketball's Dan Marino.
"To win for him is just something special," sophomore Terrence Jones said.
Calipari should recognize that at Kentucky, he would be closer to a second championship every year than he would be to the Knicks' first in four decades.
"I don't have to hear the drama," Calipari said. "I can just coach now."
Calipari should ask Larry Brown about the grass being greener on the other side. Or Nick Saban. Or Pete Carroll. Or Rick Pitino.
Kansas saved its best for the second half, when it began playing defense like the '85 Bears and cut an 18-point deficit to 62-57 with 1:37 left. Kentucky didn't crack. Best team. Best coach. Caliparty in Lexington, Ky., today, and tomorrow.
Not on Broadway, where Calipari never will have his hair messed up by adoring players.

It definitely is bad writing to turn Apollo into Pollon.
What has happened here is like J. K. Rowling coming up with a new sequel of Harry Potter and then proceed to tell us that 'Harry Potter' is actually not the son of James and Lily Potter and the real baby Harry Potter already died when Voldermort attacked them. And the 'Harry Potter' that was enrolled in Hogwarts is actually the neighbour's child who Voldermort turned into a Hocrux for no reason.
Or Lucas coming up with Star Wars episode 7 telling us that actually Darth Vader is not Anakin Skywalker, who already died in the duel against Obi Wan on Mustafar. And Darth Vader is actually a cyborg clone of Anakin created by Palpatine.

I have also a list of negative things about aquarion evol, starting with the Amata/Kagura merge (if it were to happen), the bad taste the main characters relationship leaves in my mouth (unless it's intentional), the messed up theme (I wonder how they are going to make the 'fuck fate' thing work, when the only one apparently not involves in thr destiny deal and wanting to go against it for real is suffering, dragging through mud and losing).

The only thing funny a bout this revelation is that Sirius half knew better than Silvia's half-soul or Touma's soul. I guess he can have the last laugh. That's probably why the poor doesn't even get mentioned in EVOL cause he knew the troll all along and never acknowledged Apollo as Apollonius.

Song of Legend
We're just that close towards the third chapter's conclusion to the Aquarion's Legend saga, and I'm very surprised with both the developments and revelations this episode had to offer.
If we take a look back to the first Aquarion series it could most of everything make sense, provided if the Legend from the second chapter told by both Crea and Fudo followed the storyline from the first TV series or the OVA.

Seems I'm a little late to this party. This twist really disturbs me.
Why, in Episode 2 from the original, does Rena see Apollo turn into Apollonius after she bites him.
Was Pollon purposely deceiving everyone by acting like Apollonius? This was also in Episode 2 when Apollo starts yelling at Silvia. Calling her Celiane and telling her that her fight was pathetic. Does she have no pride as a warrior, etc. She even calls him Apollonius.
I suppose all the other changes that happen to Apollo could be chalked up to Aquarion taking him over, but it seems cheap.
Feels like the main characters of the series went from heroes to mascots.

Simple. The Pollon thing "was" considered in Genesis but was dropped off and it ended with the Apollonius is Apollo angle. That was how the series ended and how they wanted it to be considering all the "hints" they threw in(Far more than the Pollon ones). However, when they went to work with EVOL they kinda had no reason to bring Touma back... Or have any real conflict that connected Genesis and EVOL. So they went back to the dropped Pollon plot and used that for their whole "Destiny" thing and give a reason for Touma to return as a villian. Since all things considered if they went with the Apollonius angle, which they did go with before they decided 7 years later to release a sequel, than Touma would have felt no need to return to troll and would have happily left Apollonius to reincarnate and be happy with Celiane.
It would have been much better if they just focused on the conflict between Vega and Altair and actually stuck with the Apollonius/Celiane deal. Instead we got this. This is what happens when you purposely force your work in a direction different from the original premise to try and give this new story more "depth" or force unneeded themes into the fray that have only served to confuse and anger viewers of both EVOL and Genesis.
You can tell it wasn't their intent for Genesis considering the shoddy job they did implementing it into EVOL, than forgetting about it in the very next episode(So what was the point of screwing Genesis fans over again?), and that they didn't understand any of the ramifications(One-Sided Beastality love prevailing because of a lie) of this change and its long reaching effects(Stealing Apollonius' side of the promise, tricking Celiane into thinking she was getting with her destined Apollonius and not a dog that hyjacked her promise with Apollonius). Or that they've forgotten the far more numrous Apollo = Apollonius scenes than any Pollon scene and how they conveniently dropped Sirius(They pretty much retconned hs role out and made Mikono and Silvia out to be the full Celiane deal) from the plot altogether in EVOL.

I would like to point out that the summer is more convenient for me because I'm working, and thus have a fixed schedule. During the university term I probably have more free time, but it's harder to plan development time when that time is a 3 hour lunch break then classes from 3 to 9pm, or whatever crazy hours they cook up for me next year. Also, I'm not American. I suppose I can be selfish back ... although uDG usually starts in august, which is good for me September onwards is usually very work intensive and therefore bad for me. If it was up to me I would want uDG to start today

Faculty Senate Passes Unanimous Resolution Recognizing Baylor PresidentJan. 16, 2014
Judge Ken Starr commended for 'his spirit of cooperation and shared governance'
Follow us on Twitter: @BaylorUMediaCom
Contact: Lori Fogleman, 254-710-6275
WACO, Texas (Jan. 16, 2014) - At its first meeting of the spring semester, Baylor University's Faculty Senate presented President and Chancellor Ken Starr with a Senate resolution congratulating him on his recent appointment as Chancellor and commending him for his leadership of the University.
The resolution, which was passed unanimously by Senators on Nov. 12, 2013, reads: "The Baylor Faculty Senate congratulates Judge Ken Starr on his appointment as Chancellor and commends his service and leadership as Baylor's President, especially his spirit of cooperation and shared governance."
"Judge Starr has always been open to dialogue and completely unconditional in his respect for faculty, while he has never been the least bit defensive, even when topics are difficult," said Jim H. Patton, Ph.D., professor of neuroscience, psychology and biomedical studies and chair of the Faculty Senate. "I'm sure there are occasions when the President disagrees with the Senate. But there is never any personal animus evident in his interactions. Judge Starr enjoys widespread respect because he has earned it, and he reciprocates the same respect towards faculty, and that is very good for our university."
"I am deeply, deeply humbled and most appreciative of this resolution passed by the Faculty Senate," Judge Starr said. "It is profound blessing - and an honored responsibility - to serve Baylor University alongside our wonderful faculty who are daily helping to transform the lives of our students and move Baylor University boldly forward in terms of our global impact."
Judge Starr was appointed Baylor's 14th president in 2010. Last November, in light of the University's significant progress during his presidency, the Baylor Board of Regents voted to extend Starr's contract and also assigned him the new title of "President and Chancellor." He continues to serve as the University's chief executive officer. In providing the additional title, the Board has charged the President to work to increase Baylor's influence in the nation and around the world, including its more prominent presence in the nation's capital.
Baylor University is a private Christian University and a nationally ranked research institution, characterized as having "high research activity" by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The University provides a vibrant campus community for approximately 15,000 students by blending interdisciplinary research with an international reputation for educational excellence and a faculty commitment to teaching and scholarship. Chartered in 1845 by the Republic of Texas through the efforts of Baptist pioneers, Baylor is the oldest continually operating University in Texas. Located in Waco, Baylor welcomes students from all 50 states and more than 80 countries to study a broad range of degrees among its 11 nationally recognized academic divisions. Baylor sponsors 19 varsity athletic teams and is a founding member of the Big 12 Conference.

I love a good RPG, but sometimes I get tired of paying lots of money for a nice, playable game. I tend to not get a lot of replay value out of my games, so I generally prefer to pay less (and sacrifice some long-term playability). Juggernaut was a game that seemed to meet my criteria – only 5 bucks, and it looked like a decent game. I decided to check it out.
In the latest version of Juggernaut (Revenge of Sovering), the terrifying Sovering has taken over the land of Haradan. You play as one of 5 legendary warriors, better known as the "Scorpions." Within your quest you must slay more than 100 evil beasts as well as complete numerous, terrifying quests. It all culminates in the final battle against a terrifying demon. Is Juggernaut worth your time and money? Stick with me after the jump to learn more about gameplay, strategy and what I really think about the game.

Highway 18 partially blocked by rollover near Sheridan
(N-R Staff) SHERIDAN — The driver of a loaded log truck was uninjured this morning when his tractor-trailer rig rolled just west of Sheridan at Red Prairie Road.
The Oregon State Police gave this account of the 11:45 a.m. incident:
Ray Mott, 56, of 110 N.E. Kingwood St., McMinnville, employed by Siletz Trucking, was operating a 2000 Kenworth when the trailer's right-side wheels traveled onto the shoulder. He lost control trying to bring the trailer back onto the pavement. The rig traveled across the westbound lanes and rolled onto its side, spilling its load.
In addition to OSP, the Yamhill County Sheriff's Office, Sheridan Fire District and Oregon Department of Transportation responded.
OSP Senior Trooper Bridget Taylor, who patrols out of the McMinnville office, is the lead investigator.
The highway was partially blocked while the scene was cleared. It was later reopened.

December 10, 1979
To: Deans, Department Chairs, Administrators
From: President Gall Fullerton
Subject: Task Force Announcement
Many of you have expressed concern about the cumulative effects of reductions in State support combined with a temporary drop to student enrollment. We are all unhappy that some cut-backs in operating budgets and staff have been a necessary consequence. The overall mission and greatness of the University remain unchanged, however; and we have many options available for creative responses to the present challenge.
Numerous campuses have been faced with problems similar to our own and have been able to demonstrate that an aggressive and creative recruitment and retention program can significantly change downward trends in student enrollment. For this reason, I have created a special task force to make recommendations designed to help us become more effective in our recruitment of new students and in our retention of those students who have already made a commitment to San José State University. Members-of the task force include: Dr. Henry Bruinsma, Dr. Sybil Weir, Dr. Larry Gerston, Mr. Gerald Brody, Dr. Rosa Reeves, Ms. Ellen VanNortwick, Ms. Sylvia Castillo, Dr. Charles Whitcomb, Ms. Nancy McFadden and Dr. Lowell Walter, Chairman.
Because programs and services which lead to an Improvement in our retention of students who are progressing toward a degree must be the ultimate goal rather than the retention of students per se, the Task Force has been instructed to seek out the advice and cooperation of every segment of the campus.
What ideas do you have to offer regarding changes and Improvements in the following areas?
Recruitment -- Learning/Academic Support Programs
Admission Procedures -- Academic Advising
Orientation for Students -- Counseling Services
Financial Aid -- Curricula Content
Career Assistance -- Policy Statements
Campus Image -- Registration
The Task Force earnestly solicits your suggestions and has asked me to request you to mall any recommendations for programs, or actions, to them in care of my office.
