Leading the way in logistics innovation.

Our technology keeps us on the forefront of logistics innovation.

We provide quick and easy access to your data utilizing the most up-to-date systems, technology, and web visibility tools. Early on, a strategic decision was made to integrate best-in-class software packages to deal with the unique requirements of our core business units. We house our core servers at a world-class data center to ensure that your data is protected and that you have 24/7 access to it. IoT devices, RF Scanners, tablets, and bar code label printers coupled with wireless warehouses allow for real-time data exchanges and inventory optimization. Our customer web portal provides complete, real-time visibility to your inventory to help you process orders and forecast for the future.

Core Systems

Cadence Warehouse Management Software (WMS) provides us with the information that we need to accurately organize and manage your inventories, orders, shipments, and workflow. Powered by Cadre Technologies, a leader in software solutions for the 3PL industry, Cadence interacts with client systems (ERP, EDI) and seamlessly syncs with our client web portal to provide instant visibility to your inventory. Cadence improves the data collection process in our warehouse locations and increases inventory continuity between all locations.

PackManager, a cloud-based packaging software from Nulogy, is specifically built to manage the complexity and challenges of contract packaging.  It allows us to effortlessly integrate inventory with production to help manage operations, cut costs, save time, and better forecast.  PackManager ensures timely and accurate receipts once the project starts.  We can track lots and expiries from receipt, through production and shipments.  It also provides our customers real-time visibility to see what’s going on with projects through a customer portal that’s viewable across desktop and mobile devices.

Ship-IT multi-carrier shipping software is powered by Advanced Distribution Solutions, Inc. (ADSI).  An industry-leading provider, ADSI seamlessly integrates Ship-IT with ERP, order entry, and our WMS system. The comprehensive shipping software helps us reduce costs and automate shipping processes with quick carrier cost and service comparisons, shipping label and document printing and delivery tracking. Ship-IT is built upon a large library of carriers, as well as tools to manage shipping rules and customer shipping preferences.

Data Management

Managing data is as important as managing inventory, which is why Bonded Logistics chose Peak 10 to house and manage our data center.  Peak 10ʼs Cloud Plus, which is SSAE 16, SOC 1 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 2, SOC 3 Type 2, and ISO 27001 compliant, improves performance and reliability, lowers costs, and maximizes our internal resources.  The use of Peak 10ʼs Cloud Plus allows us to enhance the scalability and security of our infrastructure, supplying up-to-date platforms to host our critical mission applications and boost disaster recovery capabilities.

Standard and customizable reports are available to allow information to be extracted and stored on your PC for evaluation or sent via email for quick and easy viewing.  Accurate and timely information is crucial as our clients process orders as well as forecast for the upcoming quarter and year.

Available reports include:
• Sales orders / shipments
• Purchase orders / receipts
• SKU inventory
• Carrier tracking
• SKU activity history
• Inventory balances, both current and historical

Systems Integration

Systems integration has become a critical component to the success of our warehousing operations.  We built our warehouse management system to seamlessly integrate with our client’s ERP systems using EDI transactions.  This means faster processing times, improved data quality, increased order accuracy, better customer service, a reduction in returns, along with continuous process improvement.  Whether it’s a distribution customer sending transactions through Oracle ERP, or an e-commerce client sending XML orders through Shopify, our systems are optimized to fully integrate any system our customers are utilizing.

Retailer Compliance

Maintaining compliance with retailer requirements helps reduce chargebacks, fines, and penalties when shipping orders for our customers.  Bonded Logistics strictly follows retailer compliance procedures and guidelines using robust technology that integrates with operations on the warehouse floor.  Retailer compliance takes on many aspects for us, including pallet type and design, bar code design and labeling, and shipping method or documentation. We utilize EDI to help ensure order accuracy, proper routing information, and correct advanced shipping notices (ASNs).

Retailers that we maintain vendor compliance for and regularly ship to are listed below:

Data Analytics

Bonded Logistics has the ability through data analytics to identify supply chain trends for our customers. Utilizing best-in-class systems, we mine data from an array of databases to identify fast movers, seasonal products, out-of-stock orders, and much more as requested. This helps to better manage inventory, supply chain logistics, and freight costs that improve the bottom line. We also develop customized key performance indicators (KPIs) to address specific data analytics needs in addition to our standard KPIs that monitor inventory accuracy, on-time receipts, and on-time shipments to name just a few. We are even introducing business intelligence tools that aggregates data from multiple sources to discover hidden supply chain insights.

IoT Technology

Bonded Logistics is creating an IoT (Internet of Things) environment across our vast network. This is just one way we try to separate ourselves from the competition. Connected devices around our facilities constantly feed us information to optimize operations for our customers as well as streamline the way we do business. These include forklifts mounted with fleet management software, tablets for quick and accurate physical inventories, remote temperature sensors for monitoring temp-controlled rooms, and electronic signature pads for tracking and security.

Glass Warehouse Initiative

Visibility and transparency were made top priorities across all of our facilities through the Glass Warehouse Initiative. Introduced in 2012, it breaks down into three key areas of focus – deploying advanced systems, state-of-the-art technology, and valuable data analytics. Each plays an integral part in creating valuable insight into our client’s supply chain logistics, from receiving and shipping to physical inventories and data analysis.

Child of the Erinyes
by Rebecca Lochlann
348 pages, Erinye Press

Review by Melissa Conway

I am acquainted with the author via social networking, which should in no way be construed as an admission that the following review is biased. If I don’t like a book, I won’t finish reading it no matter who wrote it.

The Year God’s Daughter is the first in author Rebecca Lochlann’s Child of the Erinyes series. Even without reading the bio on her website, it’s obvious from the first few pages that this is an author who did her research. She spent fifteen years acquainting herself with ancient Greece, and it shows. Authenticity is steeped into each chapter.

If you are not a fan of historical fiction, don’t let that stop you from reading this excellent book. The finely-honed characterization is such that even with a host of unfamiliar names, you will never lose track of who’s who. The narrative never gets boring – the author has produced a fine balance between description and action.

The story opens with the child Aridela, beloved princess on the island of Crete, recklessly attempting to fulfill her dream of becoming a bull dancer – she believes the goddess Athene has made it her destiny to accomplish the daring and difficult feat. Menoetius is a young foreigner, bastard son of the High King of Mycenae, tasked with finding any weakness in Crete’s defenses. They meet under dire circumstances, and thus begins “Glory, passion, treachery and conspiracy on the grandest scale.”

Divine destiny is a deep-seated theme throughout. Constant regional earthquakes are interpreted by the ruling priestesses as omens, and most everything is imbued with celestial meaning. The reader is immersed in a vivid culture of devoted spirituality. Athene must be appeased with violent sacrifice and every year that sacrifice is the queen’s latest consort – a man who bested all other competitors for the honor of living large for a year and then allowing his blood to consecrate Crete’s soil. Crete is a matrilineal society, but male-dominated kingdoms surround them, and contempt for Athene is spreading on the mainland. If the encroaching changes reach as far as Aridela’s peaceful, prosperous island, a long-prophesied catastrophe will befall them all. From the start, we know this story is headed for a spectacular, world-changing ending. I can’t wait for the rest of the series to see how it all plays out…

Rebecca Lochlann has produced a book of uncommon quality. Highly recommended.

June 8, 2016

HarperCollins author, friend of Booksquawk and all-round top person Liz Tipping’s new novel, Don’t You Forget About Me, is a must-read for fans of John Hughes movies, the Brat Pack and eighties retro culture.

Here, she talks to Pat Black about her new novel and the strange artistic avenues coveting Molly Ringwald’s cardigan can lead you into…

Booksquawk: Tell us a bit about yourself and the books you write.

Liz Tipping: I live in Birmingham with my husband and our adopted beagle, Mary. I write romantic comedies. The books I write are influenced by where I live and working class culture so they’re more Gavin and Stacey/The Royle Family type scenarios than a Richard Curtis Notting Hill-style rom com.
B: What’s Don’t You Forget About Me about?

L: Don’t You Forget About Me is a movie themed romantic comedy which pays homage to all those great John Hughes 80s teen movies like The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink. Cara works in a video store and is invited to a school reunion. Remembering the terrible school discos she attended back in the day, she still yearns for her high school prom moment like the ones in the movies. She sees this as her chance to grab her magical movie moment.
B: It references an eighties song – if you were to pick five songs which define the book from that decade, what would they be, and why?

L: The Lotus Eaters - The First Picture of You
This song just screams 80s and fits nicely with how one character feels about another character but can’t quite express it. It’s also a great summer tune with only a slight hint of 80s misery.

Deacon Blue – Real Gone Kid
Cara in the book is desperately trying to be cool. There’s a scene where Cara’s friend, Stubbs “plays her old 45s” and it reminded me of this song. I think Deacon Blue as a band correlate nicely with the book too. Great music, great band but probably not “edgy” enough for the cool kids, which is kind of what the book is about- not being cool.

Taylor Dayne - Tell It To My Heart
This has 80s school disco written all over it. In the book Cara is haunted by an embarrassing incident at a school disco but actually the lyrics in the song fit the book pretty well. We’ve got these characters with stuff bubbling under the surface and what they need to do is let it all out, and scream it from the rooftops in a gigantic-haired Taylor Dayne kind of way.

Roam by the B52s is one of my favourite songs.  It’s a cracking pop song and it represents how Cara feels about stuck in her hometown.

Safety Dance - Men Without Hats– this is the silliest song and an eighties classic! And there’s a fella in the book who has a daft haircut a bit like the lad in the Safety Dance video. I’ll have this one for the end credits, I think.

B: Video shops are relics of the past. What video did you hire Too Many Times To Be Healthy from your video shop as a kid?

L: We do still have a couple in Birmingham but I’ve not used one in years! The Lost Boys – watched it over and over again. I reckon I still know all the words off by heart. I think I watched it daily. And I had the soundtrack too of course and know all the lyrics to all of that too.

B: The boxes on videos were scary, I found. Did you ever think that, or is it just me? Do you remember any in particular?

L: Like, the pictures on the boxes? Or the actual boxes? Because , yes, the actual boxes were pretty scary. You’d certainly know about it when you trapped your fingers in the case when closing it. Not sure about the pictures on the boxes. I used to hire the Nightmare on Elm St films a lot. They were scary. I even made a paper mache house like the one in Nightmare on Elm St 3. What a little weirdo I must have been!

B: A two-part question on the Brat Pack. Which Brat Pack member did you fancy the most, and which one did you most want to be? Choose any movie/star from the era, doesn’t have to be John Hughes.

L: I would probably say I fancied Rob Lowe the most, but his hair was really stupid then. He’s much better looking now and his hair is alright now. And the movie star I most wanted to be was Elisabeth Shue. Adventures in Babysitting was another much rented video as was Cocktail starring her and Tom Cruise. and I still fancy Tom Cruise as well, which I have decided it completely fine, thank you very much, before anyone starts!

B: Do you find it strange that radio stations are still playing so much eighties music? I don’t remember 1950s music being played quite so much back in the 1980s. Is it possible the eighties were underappreciated in terms of music, fashion, art and culture? (may be too big a question I guess).

L: I don’t know, maybe we just have more radio stations now and people have more choices? I do remember fifties music being played a lot in my house and that music was slightly before my parents era. It’s interesting how many younger people are into eighties culture. When Don’t You Forget About Me started life on wattpad, it had tons of teen readers and they all told me how much they loved John Hughes films and Molly Ringwald. It’ll be something to do with economics and post- modernism probably.

B: Do you know anyone who might be able to sing the chorus to St Elmo’s Fire, pitch-perfect?

L: Yeah, I reckon John Parr is your man. I just went and had a look at the video to see how I fared and I wasn’t great at it but it did make me think about how St. Elmo’s fire didn’t really click with me.  I reckon if it was released in 1985, then by the time it came onto video or on the telly, I would have been around thirteen maybe, but I never really liked it that much at the time. I think it’s because in the other eighties films, like The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Adventures in Babysitting, the characters are at school,  any of us could relate to them because we’ve all been to school. With St Elmo’s fire, I could never really fathom out what was going on.

B: What’s your eighties style dream/disaster? So many girls had the Fergie Bow, but nobody talks about it… It’s like Phil Collins records and watching House Party!

L: I had a lemon Fergie bow on a clip which was pinned to the bottom of a French plait. I wore it with a lemon and white t-shirt and a white skirt. That was probably one of the better outfits to be honest! Also had some pink ski pants with black elastic stirrups on them with a white shirt and a pink paint splatter pattern on them. Matchy matchy!

B: Tell us a bit about your next project.

L: I’ve had so many ideas floating around for years, but nothing so far that’s grabbed me as much  as Don’t You Forget About Me did. But then, on Saturday I suddenly had a new idea and I sent it to my agent and she said it “sounds amazing” so I’m going to get cracking on that ASAP.

Read the review of Don't You Forget About Me here.

  1. Great interview, guys. This was so much fun to read! And I loved Deacon Blue and still may have a girl crush on Elizabeth Shue.

Business Design Thinking – Design Sojourn

Our Design Led Innovation client consulting or facilitation sessions often involves a business diagnostic activity, that is split into something I fondly call: hard and soft diagnostics.

A hard diagnostic, aptly called as it covers hard financial numbers, covers things like market share, revenue, profit, margins etc. This is a pretty meaty and tangible discussion, with a lot of great tools such as the Business Model Canvas by Alex Osterwalder or the Lean Canvas by Ash Maurya to support the discussion.

On the other hand, our soft diagnostic activity tends to cover the softer more human elements of a business. This includes things such as values, culture, meaning, customer needs and motivation. Much of this actually falls within the realm of Design Thinking, and as far as I know, there is no tool for this.

So I created one.

Good Design Award!

Nakamichi Dragon Electrostatic Speaker

My team and I received a “Good Design Award” from the prestigious Chicago Athenaeum, Museum of Architecture and Design for our Nakamichi Phoenix Electrostatic Speaker. The product has since been renamed and repositioned as part of the Dragon audiophile product range. This product was also featured in Wired Magazine issue 15.03

This win was particularly sweet, as it was a product that we recommended, pushed, and developed as part of our ongoing research into trends, consumer markets and technology. This speaker is also a cumulative milestone example of our evolving design language strategy that I had mapped out for the brand and product category about 3 years ago.

Finally we are 1 of the 6 Good Design Awards that was given out to designers and manufacturers from Singapore. Still along way to go compared to the 270 haul from the US, still, this is a great boost for the budding Industrial Design Industry in Singapore.

Nakamichi Lumos in T3 Magazine

The Lumos portable DVD, designed together with Tithima S. and E Chin, for Nakamichi, has been featured in the latest UK version of the T3 Gadget Magazine. (August 2007, Page 18). A wonderful review and do stay tuned for some scanned images when I get the chance to upload it.

Edit: Here are the scanned images and the detailed review after. The design was inspired by premium leather ladies handbags and the tactile textures found on it.

Phoenix ESL Reviewed in Amazing Editions Magazine

Very kind words from the review. This is the English translation of the Swedish text found in the magazine:

“Phoenix radiates class and is a revolutionary electrostatic speaker with HD-A technology from Nakamichi. It combines a unique design with high end sound. The light, ultra-thin membrane is capable of delivering a transparent, clear and well defined sound with exceptional control. Special components provide a detailed and distortion free deep bass even when the speaker is pressed hard. Phoenix convinces as it is hardly affected by room acoustics and sounds as good as it is beautiful to look at.”

Ace of Bass: Article on Wired Mag

The Phoenix Electrostatic Speaker, designed and developed by my team and I, has been featured on Wired Magazine. Sniff…

Edit: Added gratuitous shot from the magazine. Ahhh so tasty.

Get a Wired [1-year subscription] from Amazon.

Here’s the write up, which I’m saving for eternity:

Electrostatic speakers, which make music by vibrating diaphragms between oppositely charged plates, have been around since the ’50s. But unlike poodle skirts, they never caught on, because the distortion-free sound was projected in a fairly narrow sonic field. Nakamichi has widened the optimal listening area by shaping the plates in its Phoenix speakers like teardrops. And to bump up the bass, notoriously lacking in electrostatics, each speaker has an integrated dual-cone subwoofer. The two drivers move opposite to each other, canceling out errant vibrations that would color the sound.
Phoenix: $8,600 per pair, www.nakamichi.com

Red Riding Hood (2005)
Movie Review by The Gravedigger

Red Riding Hood (2005) In this Italian, English speaking movie, a twelve-year-old named Jenny has some very serious psychological problems. She loves to kill people. As soon as her grandmother arrives in Rome to take her back to New York City after her mother presumably abandoned her, we start to see how odd Jenny is. She has an 'invisible' friend she calls George, which looks like a guy in a red robe wearing a stylized wolf mask. It's 'George' who does the killings. She targets people who she views as bad, such as a woman stealing a bottle of wine from a store-or her dentist, who is having an affair with his secretary. She feels as if it's her job to punish them.When she can't convince her grandmother to stay in Italy, Jenny drugs her with sleeping pills and drills holes in her knees, so she can't leave the apartment. She also feeds her small amounts of peanut butter, which she is allergic to, and this keeps her mouth swollen so she can't scream for help. It's like MISERY meets THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVES DOWN THE LANE.Surprisingly gory and well-acted, this is definitely a horror movie worth renting. From MTI Video.www.mtivideo.com

Bad credit payday advances can especially be useful in emergencies

Bad credit payday advances can especially be useful in emergencies

A bad credit history can place you into enormous financial problems вЂ“ but bad credit pay day loans can relieve you against many of them.

What exactly is a credit score that is bad?

Once you make an application for loans, lenders seek out various facets such as for instance your credit rating. Many factors perform a role that is huge determining the scoring procedure. With low fico scores, it gets burdensome for the candidates to have no credit check loans. These ratings therefore determine a personвЂ™s eligibility for easy pay day loans.

Missed re re re Payments you can find three facets linked to the missed payments in the credit scoring system. They are: exactly exactly how later have actually the re payments been, just how long you’ve got maybe not missed any re re payment while the final number of repayments within the history. The credit scoring bureau places a notation on conclusion of 1 month of standard. Assume you took three months to obtain right right straight back on track on because of the due-debt that is past the account will show 90 days marked. The long and regular delinquencies show an impact that is enormous your credit rating after conclusion of 1 month of standard.

Collections and Defaults every so often, our bills have a tendency to get accumulated. In such instances, businesses give consideration to getting up the bills that are missed the duration of non-payment exceeds seven months. One surpassing seven months, you shall have the ability to understand collection notation in the report.

Public record information Your credit history upon bankruptcy shows a direct effect for quite some time. But, civil judgements and income tax liens remain noted on the report. You will get gone some records that are public the report after you have was able to please the judgement or the lien.

Repossession and Foreclosure The property property foreclosure plus the repossession show a default in secured instalment loan. Supported by a real home, the lending company has got the straight to simply simply take away the house in the failure of repayments of this loan. The repossession is about other properties such as automobiles while foreclosure denotes home mortgages. In the event that loan provider will not recover the mortgage even with offering the house at an auction, then the deficiency judgement might be put before you decide to.

Usage of High Credits on charge cards The ratio of one’s credit stability and also the charge card restriction determines the credit card utilisation amount that is actual. In the event that you have many maxed down cards, your credit rating shall work as an indicator that is negative. Nevertheless, you can get a grip on this element.

The advantages of bad credit pay day loans are mentioned below:

Bad credit pay day loans in Singapore is an increasing concept, as monetary emergencies can crop any time up.

A credit that is bad can place you into enormous monetary dilemmas.

Roast Beef Casserole

Roast Beef Casserole is one of the most popular meals in the world. It is very simple to make and gives off that great taste of beef. Most meals will also include sides such as potatoes and vegetables. Even the next day, having two pieces of bread can make a good lunch.

Beef Casseroles are great for potlucks and can be a fan favorite for all crowds. From corned beef to a bacon cheeseburger casserole, these will satisfy all types of meat lovers.
If you have a fairly large cut of meat, I suggest roasting it. For beef, you will see a number of different ways that you can cook it. The loin is the tender part behind the rips and is best for roasting. Behind the loin is then the round which is the more common choice for most people. Following the round is the rump roast which is commonly used for cooking. Whichever meat you use, make sure the beef is at room temperature first so you cook it evenly.

When preparing and seasoning the meat, you can simple use salt, pepper, and garlic, or some type marinade or rub. Marinade for a roast beef casserole is a form of solution where the beef is soaked for an hour or two so the meat becomes very juicy and tender. Dry rub is the process of using a mixture of seasonings and rubbing it over the roast beef before cooking.

When roasting the roast beef, a shallow man is a good choice. This will allow an even cooking process. There are some general rules to how to cook it, but a thermometer will help ensure the roast beef is done. For rare cooked...designate 9 minutes per pound. Medium 14 minutes per pound. For well done, 18 minues per pound.

Roast Beef Casserole

1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 -10 ounces leftover roast beef or 8 -10 ounces steak
2 cups beef stock (or 1 can beef broth)
1 cup roasted tomatoes or 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 tablespoon dried basil
1 cup mushroom, cut in large chunks
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

- Cut up the onion, green pepper, roast beef; and mushrooms
- In a big pan, saute the onions in olive oil for 3 minutes, adding green peppers and cooking for 3 more minutes
- Add the roast beef, stock, basil, oregano, tomatoes, and mushrooms, simmering for 45 minutes and stirring occasionally
- Add basil and cook for about 5-10 minutes more

H-Artistry Penang 2014 | Artiste Lineup

So in previous post, I have shared about that I am going to H-Artistry in Penang this coming weekend. So excited about it!
Who will performing in H-Artistry this time?

Magic Power

Multi-genre MandoPop band which hails from Taiwan brings a fresh and new style of music through their fusion of rock, hip-hop and EDM beats. The boys from Magic Power are hailed as MandoPop’s number 1 EDM band, and have been taking over airwaves and hearts all around the world with hits such as ‘Gan Jue Fan’ and ‘Tian Ji’. Girls, get ready to have your hearts set aflutter and don’t forget to bring your cameras!

DJ Brooklyn

The sexy DJ Brooklyn who hails from the Gold Coast in Australia was introduced to the stage at a very young age and has not looked back ever since. Inspired by Havana Brown’s performance style (who incidentally has performed at H-Artistry KL before), DJ Brooklyn is famous for her big-room tunes and her infectious energetic personality – something that I’m sure the guys in the crowd will really appreciate!

Imma*Bleep*YouUp (IMBYU)

IMBYU is one of Malaysia’s very own group of house music heroes – consisting of Mr Fluff, Addic3rd and Unkle Jaymz. Heavily influenced by Alesso, Avicii, Dada Life, and Tommy Trash, the big room style of IMBYU will surely blow the roof off at the upcoming party!

Paperplane Pursuit

Paperplane Pursuit is well known in Malaysia for their pop-inspired beats and songs. Having released their first single and mini album in 2009, which was featured on MTV Asia, the trio have since released numerous hit singles such as ‘Everybody Wants Somebody’, ‘What If’ and ‘Beats of Your Love’. I suspect that this band will kick off the show so don’t be late!

Sonoma, CA

Sonoma, CA, is a city with a population of 10,008 located in California's Sonoma county, approximately 17 miles from Vallejo and 17 miles apart from the city of Santa Rosa.

The story of the Wine Region may be marked to the mid-nineteenth century, when the grand dad of California viticulture, Hungarian-born Agoston Haraszathy de Mokcsa, figured out that his 500-plus-acre Buena Vista estate in modern Sonoma County might create winemaking grapes to rival those of The European Union.

Sonoma reaches to the coast, and its uneven cliffs and dramatic vistas compile a photographer's dreamscape. Its appealing, household-owned wineries are extra isolated than these of its Napa neighbor, allowing company the impression that they've gotten away from the commotion of the true world, if only for slightly while.

Universities and Colleges in Sonoma

Sonoma is home to Sonoma State University also known as Cal State Sonoma, which is a part of the California State University system .

Things to do in Sonoma include: Beau Wine Tours - Sonoma, Up & Away Ballooning, Artisan Wine Tours, Sonoma Coast State Beach , Jacuzzi Family Vineyards, Sonoma Plaza, are all worth visiting.

Attendance Procedures
Office Hours 7:30 am to 4:00 pm
Office Phone (805) 492-3538
School Fax (805) 493-8854

When You Miss School You Miss Out
Experiences in the classrooms and the richness of activities and material covered by a teacher interacting with students can never be made up. Absence from school, especially truancy, is the greatest contributing factor to unsatisfactory schoolwork and, therefore, must be avoided except in the case of illness or emergency. A parent/guardian must call the school on the day of the absence and state the reason for your child missing school. If the absence is for an extended period of time, a note from the doctor listing all dates involved is required to excuse the absence. If special restrictions, due to physical limitations are involved, the Health Office should be advised in writing at the time the student returns to school. Our office voice mail is available 24 hours a day for your convenience.

Absences Due to School Activities
Students who are absent from class because of participation in school activities must obtain a Field Trip permission slip before the activity occurs. The slip must be signed by the parent/guardian and returned to the school by the date indicated. Failure to follow this procedure will result in denial of participation in the activity. Students who miss class due to participating in school activities are expected to get assignments before missing class; students are expected to do work missed in class.

Partial Day Absences

When students are ill, have a doctor or dentist appointment, or for any other reason they do not arrive before the start of A or 1st period they are required to stop at the front office and get a re-admit slip. Parents/Guardians must walk the student in and provide a reason for their absence or tardiness. Students may also come in with a note from a doctor. If a student is late for unexcused reasons a parent is not required to walk in with them.

Early Dismissal for Appointment or Business
If your child has an appointment or needs to be dismissed early, please contact the office within an hour prior to dismissal time and request that your child be summoned to the office for you at the time that you specify.

Classification of Absences

An absence is excused according to California law for:

  • Personal illness or injury
  • Bereavement – funeral for an immediate family member (1 day for California and 3 days for out of state)
  • Medical, dental, or chiropractic appointment
A student who has an excused absence may do make-up work and will receive full credit for work that is completed within a prescribed time limit.

A student who has been absent from a class or classes without a parent notifying the school is considered truant. If the parent notifies the school, the student’s absence will be excused if it falls into one of the above mentioned categories. Any other reasons such as a “personal day” or “family reasons” will be marked as "verified unexcused."

Vijay Iyer

October 14, 2020

Composer-pianist Vijay Iyer has carved out a unique path as an influential, prolific, shape-shifting presence in modern music. He was described by Pitchfork as “one of the best in the world at what he does,” by the Los Angeles Weekly as “a boundless and deeply important young star,” by the New York Times as a “social conscience, multimedia collaborator, system builder, rhapsodist, historical thinker and multicultural gateway,” and by Minnesota Public Radio as “an American treasure.” A musical innovator, an active collaborator, and a member of multiple artistic communities, Iyer continues to reimagine the role of the musician in the 21st century.

For his episode on the Cornell Concert Series Fall 2020 Season, Iyer will perform some of his own compositions, which draw from a variety of sources- including African American improvisational traditions, his own Indian heritage, and the Western classical canon.

Proximity + Children of Flint
Where I Am
Taking Flight + Wrens
One For Blount + Crown Thy Good

Iyer has been voted DownBeat Magazine‘s Artist of the Year four times – in 2018, 2016, 2015 and 2012 – and Artist of the Year in Jazz Times‘ Critics’ and Readers’ Polls for 2017. Iyer was named a 2017 United States Artists Fellow, a 2013 MacArthur Fellow, and a 2012 Doris Duke Performing Artist. He holds a lifetime appointment as the Franklin D. and Florence Rosenblatt Professor of the Arts at Harvard University, with a joint affiliation with the Department of Music and the Department of African and African American Studies.

The New York Times observed, “There’s probably no frame wide enough to encompass the creative output of the pianist Vijay Iyer.” Iyer has released twenty-three albums covering remarkably diverse terrain, most recently for the ECM label. 2019 brings the release of The Transitory Poems, a live two-piano improvisation with Iyer’s longtime colleague and label-mate, Craig Taborn. Prior to that, Iyer’s sextet album Far From Over (2017) was ranked #1 in US National Public Radio’s annual Jazz Critics’ Poll, surveying 157 critics. It was named among the best jazz albums of the year in the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, Slate, and the New York Times, and the only “jazz release” in Rolling Stone’s list of the 50 best records of 2017. Iyer’s Sextet was voted 2018 Jazz Group of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association.

This episode premieres on on Wednesday, October 14, where it will remain viewable for 14 days. You will not need an account to view the video during this time.

Before starting any type of analysis classify the data set as either continuous or attribute, and even it is a combination of both types. Continuous details are characterized by variables that can be measured on a continuous scale including time, temperature, strength, or monetary value. A test is to divide the benefit by 50 percent and find out if it still makes sense.

Attribute, or discrete, data can be associated with a defined grouping and then counted. Examples are classifications of positive and negative, location, vendors’ materials, product or process types, and scales of satisfaction including poor, fair, good, and excellent. Once an item is classified it can be counted as well as the frequency of occurrence can be determined.

The next determination to create is whether or not the information is 统计作业代写. Output variables are often called the CTQs (important to quality characteristics) or performance measures. Input variables are what drive the resultant outcomes. We generally characterize a product or service, process, or service delivery outcome (the Y) by some purpose of the input variables X1,X2,X3,… Xn. The Y’s are driven through the X’s.

The Y outcomes can be either continuous or discrete data. Examples of continuous Y’s are cycle time, cost, and productivity. Types of discrete Y’s are delivery performance (late or promptly), invoice accuracy (accurate, not accurate), and application errors (wrong address, misspelled name, missing age, etc.).

The X inputs can also be either continuous or discrete. Examples of continuous X’s are temperature, pressure, speed, and volume. Examples of discrete X’s are process (intake, examination, treatment, and discharge), product type (A, B, C, and D), and vendor material (A, B, C, and D).

Another set of X inputs to always consider would be the stratification factors. These are variables that may influence the item, process, or service delivery performance and should not be overlooked. Whenever we capture this information during data collection we can study it to determine if it makes a difference or not. Examples are time of day, day of every week, month of the season, season, location, region, or shift.

Since the inputs can be sorted from your outputs and also the data can be classified as either continuous or discrete selecting the statistical tool to utilize boils down to answering the question, “What exactly is it that we wish to know?” This is a list of common questions and we’ll address every one separately.

What exactly is the baseline performance? Did the adjustments designed to the process, product, or service delivery make a difference? Are there relationships between the multiple input X’s as well as the output Y’s? If there are relationships will they produce a significant difference? That’s enough questions to be statistically dangerous so let’s begin by tackling them one-by-one.

Precisely what is baseline performance? Continuous Data – Plot the data in a time based sequence using an X-MR (individuals and moving range control charts) or subgroup the info utilizing an Xbar-R (averages and range control charts). The centerline from the chart offers an estimate in the average in the data overtime, thus establishing the baseline. The MR or R charts provide estimates from the variation over time and establish top of the and lower 3 standard deviation control limits for the X or Xbar charts. Produce a Histogram from the data to view a graphic representation from the distribution of the data, test it for normality (p-value should be much in excess of .05), and compare it to specifications to assess capability.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Variables Control Charts, Histograms, Graphical Summary, Normality Test, and Capability Study between and within.

Discrete Data. Plot the data in a time based sequence utilizing a P Chart (percent defective chart), C Chart (count of defects chart), nP Chart (Sample n times percent defective chart), or perhaps a U Chart (defectives per unit chart). The centerline supplies the baseline average performance. Top of the and lower control limits estimate 3 standard deviations of performance above and underneath the average, which makes up about 99.73% of all expected activity over time. You will get a bid from the worst and greatest case scenarios before any improvements are administered. Develop a Pareto Chart to look at a distribution of the categories as well as their frequencies of occurrence. When the control charts exhibit only normal natural patterns of variation as time passes (only common cause variation, no special causes) the centerline, or average value, establishes the capacity.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Attributes Control Charts and Pareto Analysis. Did the adjustments created to the procedure, product, or service delivery make a difference?

Discrete X – Continuous Y – To test if two group averages (5W-30 vs. Synthetic Oil) impact gasoline consumption, use a T-Test. If you will find potential environmental concerns that may influence the test results make use of a Paired T-Test. Plot the results on the Boxplot and measure the T statistics with all the p-values to make a decision (p-values under or similar to .05 signify which a difference exists with at the very least a 95% confidence that it is true). If there is a positive change pick the group using the best overall average to meet the objective.

To test if two or more group averages (5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-30, 10W-40, or Synthetic) impact fuel useage use ANOVA (analysis of variance). Randomize the order in the testing to lower any time dependent environmental influences on the test results. Plot the outcomes on a Boxplot or Histogram and assess the F statistics with all the p-values to make a decision (p-values under or equal to .05 signify that the difference exists with at least a 95% confidence that it must be true). When there is a change select the group with all the best overall average to meet the goal.

In either of the aforementioned cases to test to see if you will find a difference within the variation caused by the inputs because they impact the output make use of a Test for Equal Variances (homogeneity of variance). Use the p-values to produce a decision (p-values lower than or comparable to .05 signify which a difference exists with a minimum of a 95% confidence that it must be true). If you have a change choose the group with the lowest standard deviation.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are 2 Sample T-Test, Paired T-Test, ANOVA, and Test for Equal Variances, Boxplot, Histogram, and Graphical Summary. Continuous X – Continuous Y – Plot the input X versus the output Y using a Scatter Plot or maybe there are multiple input X variables make use of a Matrix Plot. The plot supplies a graphical representation in the relationship between the variables. If it seems that a relationship may exist, between several from the X input variables as well as the output Y variable, conduct a Linear Regression of merely one input X versus one output Y. Repeat as essential for each X – Y relationship.

The Linear Regression Model gives an R2 statistic, an F statistic, as well as the p-value. To be significant to get a single X-Y relationship the R2 needs to be in excess of .36 (36% of the variation inside the output Y is explained from the observed modifications in the input X), the F ought to be much in excess of 1, as well as the p-value needs to be .05 or less.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Scatter Plot, Matrix Plot, and Fitted Line Plot.

Discrete X – Discrete Y – In this sort of analysis categories, or groups, are when compared with other categories, or groups. As an example, “Which cruise line had the best customer satisfaction?” The discrete X variables are (RCI, Carnival, and Princess Cruise Lines). The discrete Y variables would be the frequency of responses from passengers on the satisfaction surveys by category (poor, fair, good, very good, and ideal) that relate to their vacation experience.

Conduct a cross tab table analysis, or Chi Square analysis, to evaluate if there have been variations in amounts of satisfaction by passengers based upon the cruise line they vacationed on. Percentages are used for the evaluation as well as the Chi Square analysis supplies a p-value to further quantify whether the differences are significant. The general p-value related to the Chi Square analysis needs to be .05 or less. The variables which have the biggest contribution towards the Chi Square statistic drive the observed differences.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Table Analysis, Matrix Analysis, and Chi Square Analysis.

Continuous X – Discrete Y – Does the fee per gallon of fuel influence consumer satisfaction? The continuous X is definitely the cost per gallon of fuel. The discrete Y will be the consumer satisfaction rating (unhappy, indifferent, or happy). Plot the info using Dot Plots stratified on Y. The statistical method is a Logistic Regression. Once again the p-values are employed to validate that a significant difference either exists, or it doesn’t. P-values that are .05 or less mean that people have a minimum of a 95% confidence which a significant difference exists. Utilize the most frequently occurring ratings to make your determination.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Dot Plots stratified on Y and Logistic Regression Analysis. Are there any relationships involving the multiple input X’s and also the output Y’s? If there are relationships do they really make a difference?

Continuous X – Continuous Y – The graphical analysis is really a Matrix Scatter Plot where multiple input X’s can be evaluated from the output Y characteristic. The statistical analysis technique is multiple regression. Evaluate the scatter plots to search for relationships involving the X input variables and also the output Y. Also, look for multicolinearity where one input X variable is correlated with another input X variable. This can be analogous to double dipping so we identify those conflicting inputs and systematically remove them from the model.

Multiple regression is a powerful tool, but requires proceeding with caution. Run the model with variables included then review the T statistics and F statistics to identify the first set of insignificant variables to remove from your model. Throughout the second iteration of the regression model turn on the variance inflation factors, or VIFs, which are utilized to quantify potential multicolinearity issues five to ten are issues). Review the Matrix Plot to recognize X’s linked to other X’s. Remove the variables using the high VIFs as well as the largest p-values, but ihtujy remove one of the related X variables inside a questionable pair. Evaluate the remaining p-values and remove variables with large p-values from the model. Don’t be surprised if this type of process requires some more iterations.

If the multiple regression model is finalized all VIFs will be less than 5 and all p-values will be under .05. The R2 value should be 90% or greater. This is a significant model as well as the regression equation can now be utilized for making predictions as long since we maintain the input variables in the min and max range values that were used to make the model.

Minitab Statistical Software Tools are Regression Analysis, Step Wise Regression Analysis, Scatter Plots, Matrix Plots, Fitted Line Plots, Graphical Summary, and Histograms.

Discrete X and Continuous X – Continuous Y

This situation requires using designed experiments. Discrete and continuous X’s can be utilized as the input variables, however the settings on their behalf are predetermined in the appearance of the experiment. The analysis strategy is ANOVA which had been earlier mentioned.

Is an example. The aim is always to reduce the amount of unpopped kernels of popping corn in a bag of popped pop corn (the output Y). Discrete X’s could be the type of popping corn, form of oil, and shape of the popping vessel. Continuous X’s may be quantity of oil, quantity of popping corn, cooking time, and cooking temperature. Specific settings for each of the input X’s are selected and incorporated into the statistical experiment.

Building an Enthusiastic, Positive Workplace with the FISH! Video and FISH! Philosophy

Most Americans working today have heard of Seattle’s Pike Place Fish Market, and the line of “FISH!” training videos it inspired. Originally released in 1998, the FISH! video has been a worldwide training phenomenon. It is not an overstatement to say that millions of people have seen some or all of it.

FishGuysOrganizations train with the FISH! video because it shows how employees in a workplace that most would consider undesirable (a smelly fish market) not only survive, but thrive—choosing to find meaning and joy in their work and aspiring to “make the day” of every customer. After watching the video, employees are challenged to apply the FISH! Philosophy to their own work environment.

So, How Did This All Begin?

Years ago, a documentary filmmaker named John Christensen was visiting Seattle when he came across a group of energetic fishmongers at the Pike Place Fish Market who were throwing fish to one another, entertaining the crowds, and selling a lot of fish, to boot. He stood and watched the scene for over half an hour, wishing he had that kind of energy and fun culture at HIS place of work. It inspired him to create the video FISH! “I wanted to inspire people to work wholeheartedly, with purpose, while having fun, ” Christensen said. “I saw how this passion leads to excellence.” This one video eventually led to a whole line of programs and products that teach and reinforce the FISH! Philosophy.

What Can I Learn From a Fishmonger?

You’d be surprised. It’s a messy, smelly job, so why do the employees at Pike Place Fish Market have so much FUN? Well, that began in 1965 when Pike Place Fish employee John Yokoyama purchased the market from his boss. As he and his employees were deciding what kind of company they wanted to become, someone suggested they become “world famous.” Everyone embraced that vision, they added “World Famous” to their logo, and began discussing how they could make that vision a reality.

Customers experience being known and appreciated whether they buy fish or not.

According to the World Famous Pike Place Fish website, Yokoyama and his employees created their own definition of “world famous.” “For us,” they said, “it means going beyond just providing outstanding service to people. It means really being present with people and relating to them as human beings…intentionally being with them right now, in the present moment, person to person. We take all our attention off ourselves to be only with them…looking for ways to serve them.” The crew sets out to make the day of each and every customer. They share an “unrelenting commitment” to ensuring that customers are known and appreciated whether they buy fish or not. “To us,” the crew says, “…’World Famous’ is a way of being.”

What is the FISH! Philosophy?

The FISH! Philosophy revolves around four basic principles: Play, Make Their Day, Be There, and Choose Your Attitude. It’s about building an organizational culture that encourages engagement, trust, communication, and stellar service to others.

How does this apply if I’m not in customer service?

Adopting the FISH! Philosophy sounds amazing for people who work on the front lines of customer service, but what if you work in any other field? Fortunately, the philosophy can make a difference in any department or organization, no matter what your job title, or what type of team you’d like to inspire. We all serve someone at our jobs – whether it’s an internal customer (co-workers) or an external one, so everyone can benefit from the teamwork, positive attitudes and enthusiasm that training with the FISH! program can bring. And even more important than just having fun, the program’s four skills bring about personal excellence, which leads to increases in team and organizational performance!

What does this philosophy look like when applied to, say, a roofing company?

fish_roofingA roofing and construction company in Washington decided to use FISH! when teamwork and safety began suffering. When the employees viewed FISH!, they related immediately to the fishmongers in the video, whose work was also exhausting, dirty and sometimes dangerous. The roofing employees realized that they, too, could choose their attitudes and decided to use the FISH! Philosophy and the lessons from the Pike Place Fish Market in all areas of their business – in company meetings (reading customer feedback aloud), in customer care (like picking tile chips out of a customer’s garden), in their interactions with each other (they learned to coach each other in order to connect with one another, not correct one another), and in their commitment to safety (using cadences to shout out safety hazards, and consistently reviewing their safety ratings at company meetings). The feedback from customers was positive, and those employees who were “nose-to-the-grindstone” really loosened up and realized how healthy “play” at work can be. The company also managed to improve their safety scores significantly over a two year period.

How can a video help my employees become better at their jobs?

Video is a powerful teaching medium, with the ability to engage viewers’ eyes, ears and hearts, all at the same time. And once people become emotionally engaged in the story being told, they’re more open to learning and changing.

FISH! draws viewers in with its entertaining real-life story, captures their attention with humor, then shares 4 transformational principles for creating a new work environment and quality of life improvements. By discussing what these principles would look like in your organization, and then everyone committing to that new vision fresh, every day, “world famous” changes can occur in your company, as well. As one Pike Place Fish market employee states in the video, “Anybody can do this. You don’t have to throw fish. You just have to have the energy, you have to have the commitment.”

The line of video-based FISH! products includes: The original FISH! video, FISH! Sticks, FISH! Culture, FISH! Trainer Tools, FISH! for Leaders, and 4 FISH! Tales case studies videos. For more information on training with the FiSH Philosophy, contact Charthouse Learning.

Leading second-hand car dealer AAA AUTO celebrates 25 years in business and will welcome its two millionth customer this year

Company: Aures Holdings

Over the course of 25 years, AAA AUTO has grown to become the largest second-hand car dealer in Central Europe

AAA Auto began offering motorists second-hand cars in the Czech Republic 25 years ago. During that time, it has served 1.9 million customers in purchasing and sales and it plans to reach the figure of two million in the autumn of this year. In a quarter of a century, the company has rapidly expanded its network of branches to the current 40 branches across 4 Central and East European countries, where it employs a total of 2,300 people. AAA AUTO has also expanded its activities to West Europe in the area of exporting.

The AAA Auto name and brand originated in the nineteen nineties in response to the ordering of companies in telephone books and company catalogues, which were arranged alphabetically. The marketing technique of three “As” in a company’s name was subsequently used by a number of other companies, such as taxi services, real estate agencies or consumer goods firms. In 2012, AAA AUTO renewed sales under the iconic Czech Mototechna brand. Just under two years later it created the Mototechna Premium brand, where customers can find premium vehicles of various marques, such as the hybrid Fiskar Karma or the all-terrain Mercedes Benz G500 cabriolet. Mototechna has sold 30,000 vehicles since it was re-introduced to the market.

With the development of the Internet and related marketing techniques the company became a pioneer in the field of telemarketing and website presentations of second-hand cars. It currently realises up to 90% of its vehicle transactions through the Internet and mobile phones, by means of which most of the customer communications take place. “At the beginning of the 1990s the world was opened up to us and it seemed that, with a little effort, we could manage anything. At first, our second-car dealership simply had a small sales cabin, the owner and one salesman, who offered cars to customers item by item. But everything was still in the early stages of development at that time, and establishing a land line for example was a process taking several months, which is why the owner at the time connected telephone wires to a neighbouring house and leased telephone lines from his neighbours,” Managing Director of AAA AUTO Karolína Topolová reminisces.

“We established a call centre in Prague for customer requirements in 1998, which was absolutely unique in relation to the selling of second-hand cars at that time, not only in the Czech Republic, but also in Central Europe, adds Topolová, who was the founder of the call centre. Under her management, the call centre became the largest and most modern in its sector in the region. The call centre now employs over 200 operators, who take calls and answer emails in Prague and Ostrava, not only for the Czech Republic, but also for the Slovak Republic, Poland and Hungary.

AAA AUTO was the first firm to offer customers in the Czech Republic the option of selling their cars to the dealership for cash, without having to wait for sale under the terms of a so-called sale on consignment. Most other second-hand car dealerships only sold cars as intermediaries. From the very beginning, the company made a point of owning the offered vehicles, enabling it to offer customers safer sales than the competition, along with guarantees. It also gradually implemented a number of other services that were lacking on the used-car market until then, such as the option of buying a car on instalments, mobile purchasing of used cars from the owners, the option of exchanging a vehicle for another or a guarantee of the legal origins of a vehicle.

Development of the company over has progressed massively over the past quarter of a century, as has demand and customers’ wishes. What has not changed over the years is the popularity of Škoda marque vehicles, which are still the most popular used cars on the Czech market. While the Favorit was the most popular model in 1997 for example, five years later it was dethroned by the Felicia. In 2007, the Fabia became the best-selling second-hand car, and it was surpassed by the Octavia only last year.

In September 2016, AAA AUTO became the official partner to the top Czech football league, the ePojisteni.cz league, as only the second-hand car dealer to do so. It also became a partner to the Slovak Football Association. Through the Mototechna brand, Czech and Slovak football acquired over 200 new cars to a value exceeding 100 million Czech Crowns. This was historically the first partnership between a second-hand car dealer and this top football league.

AAA AUTO milestones over the 25 years it has been on the market:

  • Establishment of the company

  • Establishment of a call centre in Prague. In 2015 a new call centre was opened in Ostrava, employing over 50 people.
  • The first branches outside Prague are opened, including Brno and Ostrava

  • A large-capacity servicing facility and preparatory workshops are put into operation

  • Entry onto the Slovak market
