The WCSC had another successful season, achieving several accomplishments that supported the West Coast stores. Some key points:
1) WCSC tested direct receipts processing to reduce turnaround time and increase store sales. While the test ended, WCSC gained experience in sales support.
2) WCSC aided two new store openings by storing fixtures and aiding shipment.
3) WCSC increased productivity in several areas like alterations, shipping units, and auditing garments.
4) WCSC explored using automated replenishment and stocking more stores' merchandise to expand their business opportunities in supporting the stores.
The Kathryn Brown Cancervive Foundation and Texas Pride Barbeque invite people to attend the Breast Cancer Motorcycle Awareness Bash on October 29, 2006 from 6-11 PM at 2980 East Loop 1604, Adkins, Texas 78101. The event will include a motorcycle ride, a fun-filled bash hosted by Texas Pride BBQ which was featured on Guy Fieri's Food Network TV show, live music, great food, and door prizes to support breast cancer awareness.
The document discusses test-driven development (TDD), an agile software development technique where unit tests are written before code to verify functionality. TDD follows a cycle of writing a test, seeing it fail, then writing code to pass the test and refactoring code. Benefits of TDD include cleaner code design, easier refactoring and maintenance, and self-documenting tests. However, TDD requires imperfect knowledge at the start and is not a replacement for all testing.
The document contains three short poems that explore themes of love, connection, and longing. It also contains the lyrics of two love songs, "How Did You Know" and "Fallin'", which describe developing romantic feelings for another person and the uncertainty and joy that accompanies falling in love.
Environmental pollution refers to the presence of physical, chemical, or biological agents in the environment that can harm human health, plant and animal life, or property. The main types of pollution are water pollution, soil pollution, and air pollution. Sources of pollution include household waste, industrial waste, excess fertilizers and chemicals, logging, burning of garbage, and vehicle emissions. Impacts of pollution include effects on cardiovascular health as well as climate change through higher global temperatures and sea levels. Ozone depletion from pollution allows more ultraviolet radiation to reach the earth's surface and threaten human health.

This blog is aimed at students taking Cambridge English exams. It will provide voluntary activities to supplement classroom learning and help students improve their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. The blog's objectives are to offer an interactive space for students to work independently and access online resources to help prepare for their exams. Key lifelong learning competences cultivated through the blog include communication in a foreign language, learning to learn, cultural expression, interpersonal and social skills, and digital competence.
The document discusses the concept of joined-up government. It explains that joined-up government seeks to enhance coordination and integration within public sectors that have become too disjointed. It also aims to align incentives, structures, and cultures of authority to address critical tasks that cross organizational boundaries. The document provides background on the origins of joined-up government and its objectives. It also summarizes international developments in joined-up government initiatives in several countries. Finally, it discusses factors for success and common barriers to achieving joined-up government.

Social Media: Why It is Critical to Business TodayShelly Kramer
Presentation developed and presented by Shelly Kramer of V3 Integrated Marketing. An overview of social media and its importance in today's business world, including a look at Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn usage stats, demographics and best practices.
The STaR Chart is used by Texas schools to evaluate their progress in 4 areas of technology and readiness: Teaching and Learning, Educator Preparation and Development, Leadership/Administration/Instructional Support, and Infrastructure. It assesses schools at 4 levels from Early to Target Technology. The document summarizes the STaR Chart findings for Sachse High School, which showed a drop in some areas from 2007-2008 to 2008-2009 and a need for improvement in educator preparation, but infrastructure remaining the same. In conclusion, while Sachse is doing well, all areas could still be improved according to its STaR Chart results.
The cheetah is a small cat that lives in the African savanna. It has a slender body with spots covering its fur and can run extremely fast, reaching speeds of up to 70 miles per hour. Cheetahs live alone or in small groups and hunt prey during the day using their speed and acceleration to catch animals like gazelles. They are currently endangered due to habitat loss and conflicts with humans.
The document introduces public-private partnerships (PPPs) and outlines their key advantages:
1) PPPs bring together the public and private sectors in a long-term relationship to deliver high-quality public services, with the private sector taking on more of a service provider role and the public sector focusing on regulation and procurement.
2) The private sector can exploit its commercial skills, practices, and disciplines to deliver services earlier, at lower cost, and with better quality than traditional public sector procurement due to incentives like profit motivation and competitive pressures.
3) PPPs allow the government to harness private sector financing, innovation, and efficiencies to develop facilities and services, providing an alternative to public sector capital
This summer journal by Daniel Nieves is very brief, consisting of only the title "My Summer Journal" on the first line followed by multiple lines of dashes and then the word "THE END" on the last line, suggesting the journal was either never written or very short.
The document discusses the relationship between database systems and information retrieval (IR) systems. It notes that while they have traditionally operated in "parallel universes", addressing them together is now important for applications. It outlines some key differences and similarities between the two areas and discusses efforts to build more integrated database and IR platforms.
The document summarizes key facts about hippopotamuses. It discusses their habitat in warm, wet environments near shallow water. It notes that they can consume over 130kg of grass per grazing session and live in groups of 10-15. Additionally, it shares that hippos can walk, run, or swim within 5 minutes of birth and will die if they become too dry on land.
The document provides instructions for a group project research activity taking place in the Scottsdale Community College library. Students are asked to find with their groups: one book, one newspaper/magazine article, and one website related to their research topic. The document outlines how to use the library website and databases like Academic One File to find these materials. It provides tips for evaluating website authority and credibility for the project.

The document discusses various ways that research can be disseminated including through publishing papers in scholarly journals, presenting results at conferences, and publishing books. It also discusses key aspects of scholarly journals like their purpose to disseminate research, regular publication patterns, and inclusion of editorials and book reviews. Examples of relevant journals are provided in specific fields like physical education. The roles of research articles and peer review in scholarly journals are outlined. Finally, it recommends using specialized article databases available through the SCC library webpage to search for journal articles.
A Russian university, an Israeli university tech transfer company, and RVC international office attempted to create an international tech transfer cooperation. They signed an MOU to form a joint venture to commercialize the Russian university's knowledge and facilitate exchange. However, despite good intentions, nothing materialized from the agreement. The partnership failed due to misaligned expectations between the parties regarding timelines, project forms, and motivations. Substantive issues also hindered progress, such as differences in IP practices, language barriers, and lack of an external mediator.
