This document provides a guide for conducting retail impact studies. It outlines four key parts of the analysis: 1) analyzing the proposed retail store, 2) analyzing existing retail activity in the region, 3) forecasting future market changes, and 4) assessing the economic and fiscal impacts. The guide explains how to identify the goods the proposed store will offer, forecast its sales and jobs, determine the relevant market area, analyze current retail sales and employment in that area, project future retail trends, and estimate the potential impacts on tax revenue, jobs, and other economic and fiscal factors. The intended audience is municipal officials and community members seeking to understand and evaluate such impact studies.

This document discusses rejuvenation in product evolution through redesign and rebranding. It explores how analyzing aspects of rejuvenation design and balancing innovation with tradition allows products to evolve while maintaining what made them classics. Branding, color, styling, and embracing nostalgia can reposition products. Case studies show how Volkswagen Beetle and Sony products were rejuvenated through technological advances that made them greener and more durable for a sustainable future. The conclusion is that evolution through rejuvenation brings balance between old and new, extending products' lives.

This document summarizes research on reservoir water quality and productivity in Ohio. A state-wide database was compiled containing water quality data from 212 reservoir-years sampled between 2006 and 2007. Various water quality metrics were analyzed including secchi transparency, total phosphorus, chlorophyll a, and suspended sediments. A principal components analysis reduced the dimensions to a single composite productivity variable. Reservoirs were then ranked on this scale from hypereutrophic to oligotrophic. The results were then compared to understand trends in productivity across reservoirs and how these may impact sportfish populations over time with changes to watershed land use and reservoir aging. Understanding these relationships can help conceptualize variability in sportfish recruitment and survival.

Common myths about not having enough skills, being an introvert, or not having enough time are addressed and dismissed.
