This VS 2010 C# project offers a solution to use a Windows Forms ListView in combination with a TreeView. Regarding Windows Forms, only the ListView is used. There are several projects here on CodeProject, showing the combination of a treeview and a listview. However I have created my own which runs in virtual mode and provides a good performance, even when used with a large number of lines/nodes.
How does it look like? Here's a screen shot with an example model:
I had to create a prototype that deals with tree-organized data whereby expanding a single node/line resulted in showing the nodes/lines children with a count of 65535. Expanding/collapsing 65535 lines is not a performance problem when using the virtual mode that gathers only data that is in view.
So what does the trick? Well, I just use a regular ListView. Because it runs in virtual mode, this property "VirtualMode" of the ListView has to be set to true. Also I use the property "CheckBoxes" set to true, because I use it to provide the state whether a line is expanded or collapsed. The checkbox of course will not be displayed. I also use the "OwnerDraw" mode property set to true and draw an arrow-east when the line is not expanded, and an arrow-southeast when a line is expanded.
When the ListView runs in virtual mode, you must never "fill" the control in order that it will display items. The data is taken directly from the data model, whenever the visible lines of the control come into view. Therefore an event handler named "RetrieveVirtualItem" has to be provided. Now all the control needs to know is, how many lines it has.
When a line is expanded, the number of lines of course increases and the control can adjust its scrollbar. When a line gets collapsed, the number of lines decreases.
The ListView just knows it has lines. But with a TreeListView, tree-like organized data has to be mapped to linear organized lines. To visualize the hierarchy, indentation is used as a normal TreeView does in the same way.
How do we map tree-like organized data to linear organized data? Well, first of all, the control sends events for the visual lines in order to get data for these lines. The event handler "RetrieveVirtualItem" therefore must provide appropriate data for each line. Within this handler, the zero based line position is passed and we have to provide a ListViewItem to the event arguments. I use some kind of "mapper", which is a List of IDataNode.
private readonly List<IDataNode> m_Mapper = new List<IDataNode>(64);
Because the mapper can be accessed as a zero-based array, every item in the mapper corresponds to a line within the listview. A data model can be loaded from an XML-file, I have provided an example model with the project. All nodes within the XML-file will be a DataNode object. When traversing the XML-file's DOM, the tree-organized model will be created, also the indent level will be set within each DataNode that has children. Have a look at the source files IModel.cs as well as Model.cs in order to see the code in detail.
The mapper afterwards will get initialized this way:
private void InitVirtualListViewNodes() { m_Mapper.Clear(); ObtainAllNodes(m_Model.DataPool); //obtain top level nodes listView1.VirtualListSize = m_Mapper.Count; listView1.VirtualMode = true; listView1.Invalidate(); }
This method adds IDataNode references to the mapper:
private void ObtainAllNodes(List<IDataNode> nds) { foreach (IDataNode dn in nds) { m_Mapper.Add(dn); if (dn.Expanded) { ObtainAllNodes(dn.Children); } } }
Usually when you first load the model, all lines will be collapsed. Now if you click on an expandable line, the mouse click event handler will obtain the line number and the mapper which holds references to DataNodes, will allow to obtain the appropriate DataNode. Now the model is organized as a composite pattern which simply means that each DataNode holds a collection to child DataNodes. If a line must get expanded, the child DataNode's references will be inserted into the mapper at the given position. After this, the mapper's items grow according to the number of children. After this is done, the control's virtual item count will be set to the mapper's count property. This causes the control to fire new RetrieveVirtualItem events and so, the new expanded lines will get displayed.
The DataNode class looks like this:
public class DataNode : IDataNode { private string m_Name; private string m_Comment; private bool m_Expanded; private int m_Level; internal List<IDataNode> m_Children; public DataNode(string nam, string cmt, int lvl, bool stat) { m_Name = nam; m_Comment = cmt; m_Level = lvl; m_Expanded = stat; m_Children = new List<IDataNode>(16); }
When the control is displayed first and whenever the control is scrolled or when the number of lines of the control changes (expand/collapse occurs), the control fires events in order to get the data for the visible lines to visualize. Therefore the event handler for the "RetrieveVirtualItem" gets called. The event's argument object provides the line number of the line that needs data. Before the method returns, a ListViewItem has to be provided and associated to the "Item" property of the event's argument object. We will use the line number to lookup the appropriate IDataNode reference in the mapper. With this reference, which is a part of the data model, we will create the ListViewItem the control expects. Here's the code of the handler:
private void ListView1RetrieveVirtualItem(object sender, RetrieveVirtualItemEventArgs e) { e.Item = MakeListViewItem(m_Mapper[e.ItemIndex]); }
The method MakelistViewItem looks like this:
private static ListViewItem MakeListViewItem(IDataNode dn) { ListViewItem lvi = new ListViewItem(); lvi.Text = dn.Name; ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem lvsi1 = new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem(); lvsi1.Text = dn.CountChildren.ToString(); ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem lvsi2 = new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem(); lvsi2.Text = dn.Level.ToString(); ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem lvsi3 = new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem(); lvsi3.Text = dn.Comment; lvi.IndentCount = dn.Level; lvi.SubItems.Add(lvsi1); lvi.SubItems.Add(lvsi2); lvi.SubItems.Add(lvsi3); if (dn.Expanded) lvi.StateImageIndex = 1; else if (dn.CountChildren > 0) lvi.StateImageIndex = 0; return lvi; }
The basic stuff of course is done when you click on the arrow of a line in order to expand or collapse a line. This is the method:
private void ExpandCollapseNodes(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left) { ListView lv = (ListView)sender; ListViewItem lvi = lv.GetItemAt(e.X, e.Y); if (lvi != null) { IDataNode mbr = m_Mapper[lvi.Index]; int xfrom = lvi.IndentCount * 16; int xto = xfrom + 16; if ((e.X >= xfrom && e.X <= xto) || e.Clicks > 1) { if (mbr.CountChildren > 0) { mbr.Expanded = !mbr.Expanded; lvi.Checked = !lvi.Checked; PrepareNodes(lvi.Index, mbr.Expanded); } } } } }
As you can see, the state whether a line is expanded or collapsed will be set within the Expanded property of the ListViewItem, but also within the DataNode object. The latter has to be done because when one collapses a line on top level and re-expands the line, the lines on a higher indent level still hold their state and appear expanded or collapsed, according to their last state.
The method PrepareNodes looks like this:
private void PrepareNodes(int pos, bool add) { IDataNode mbr = m_Mapper[pos]; pos++; if (add) { PopulateDescendantMembers(ref pos, mbr); } else { int kids = ObtainExpandedChildrenCount(pos-1); m_Mapper.RemoveRange(pos, kids); } listView1.VirtualListSize = m_Mapper.Count; }
When we must expand a line, we have to obtain the children as well as sub-children. The DataNode's references will be inserted into the mapper. Here's the method that does the job:
private void PopulateDescendantMembers(ref int pos, IDataNode mbr) { foreach (IDataNode m in mbr.Children) { m_Mapper.Insert(pos++, m); if (m.Expanded) { PopulateDescendantMembers(ref pos, m); } } }
Collapsing a line is easy, just obtain the total number of expanded children and remove the number of DataNode references in the mapper.
Here's the method to obtain the number of expanded children:
private int ObtainExpandedChildrenCount(int pos) { int kids = 0; IDataNode mi = m_Mapper[pos]; int level = mi.Level; for (int i = pos + 1; i < m_Mapper.Count; i++, kids++) { IDataNode mix = m_Mapper[i]; int lvlx = mix.Level; if (lvlx <= level) break; } return kids; }
In earlier versions, I have obtained the number of expanded entries by traversing the model itself, but it's really easier to walk along the mapper until you reach the starting indent level again.
Of course there is also code for the owner draw part, but if you look at it you will recognize that it's just drawing the appropriate arrow and setting the bounding rectangle's x-position according to the indent level. So there's no need to explain it in detail, I think.
The model I have provided as an XML-file of course is just very simple and doesn't contain lots of nodes. The VirtualModeTreeListView is however very useful when displaying thousands of nodes, especially when a huge amount of child nodes have to be expanded/collapsed. Then you'll experience a great performance, because the ListView itself must never be "filled" with data. Nevertheless some kind of "mapper" that maps line numbers to data objects must be provided and adjusted whenever a node gets expanded/collapsed. But the collection class I have used for the mapper provides "RemoveAt" and "InsertAt" methods, so the mapper must never be cleared and refilled completely, when expanding/collapsing occurs. I don't know if a "List<T>" is organized as a chained list, but I hope so. The mapper will ever be the only bottleneck if it works slowly, but I have not experienced this, even with a large amount of data nodes.

Dr. Perricone's No. 1 Superfood: Açaí
Oprah.com | July 15, 2005
Nature's Energy Fruit
It may seem odd to start this list of superfoods with one you've likely never even heard of, but studies have shown that this little berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world! Açaí (ah-sigh-ee) is the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree.
Learn the truth about Oprah and claims about açaí.
Harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, açaí tastes like a vibrant blend of berries and chocolate. Hidden within its royal purple pigment is the magic that makes it nature's perfect energy fruit. Açaí is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Although açaí may not be available in your local supermarket, you can find it in several health food and gourmet stores (often in juice form). A new product featuring the unsweetened pulp is now also available, and I highly recommend that you choose this form of açaí.
Açaí pulp contains:
A remarkable concentration of antioxidants that help combat premature aging, with 10 times more antioxidants than red grapes and 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins of red wine.
A synergy of monounsaturated (healthy) fats, dietary fiber and phytosterols to help promote cardiovascular and digestive health.
An almost perfect essential amino acid complex in conjunction with valuable trace minerals, vital to proper muscle contraction and regeneration.
The fatty acid content in açaí resembles that of olive oil, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. Oleic acid is important for a number of reasons. It helps omega-3 fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple. By keeping the cell membrane supple, all hormones, neurotransmitter and insulin receptors function more efficiently. This is particularly important because high insulin levels create an inflammatory state, and we know, inflammation causes aging.

I've been struggling for days to come up with a good visual pun for Andrew Ebbett, and I'm finally caving in and just writing -- there really wasn't any good way to illustrate Inventing the Ebbetts, and while seemingly there should be a way to compare his stature to that of a hobbit, from a punster's perspective it just became too much of a stretch.
In a similar head-scratching way, I'm also stumped when it comes to figuring out whether or not Ebbett fits on next year's Anaheim squad.
Last season, little man Ebbett became quite a useful center for the Ducks, providing some minimum-wage stability for the second line while serving as a regular linemate for Teemu Selanne. Ebbett's speed and lack of size fit right into Teemu's preferences -- as we've seen before with Paul Kariya and Andy McDonald, the Finnish Flash loves fast-darting linemates, though certainly Ebbett comes with less star power than those predecessors. After spending Anaheim's first 33 games in the minors, Ebbett played a pretty valiant regular season on the second line, and though his offense faltered in the postseason, it has to be remembered that all those games were against the top two teams in the west. For the most part, Ebbett was cheaply effective (certainly more effective than the ailing Brendan Morrison, who was supposed to anchor the second line), and I'm quite pleased with how he stepped into the vacant role.
But now, with Anaheim's offseason acquisition of longtime-Teemu-buddy Saku Koivu, it seems that Ebbett's role as 2nd-line center has been usurped -- he's definitely lower on the centerman depth chart than Getzlaf and Koivu. With all the forward talent that Anaheim keeps accumulating this offseason, I keep asking myself the question: can Andrew Ebbett crack Anaheim's top-six forwards next season? Because if the answer to that becomes "no", then there's a tougher follow-up question: can Andrew Ebbett play as a bottom-six forward? He's got speed and courage but no size -- can that package work on a grind or stopper line, especially if Ebbett isn't a reliable penalty-killing option?
To help think through Ebbett's predicament, check out this list of 14 forwards listed in Anaheim's CapGeek.com roster -- I've sorted according to descending cap hit, and included listed position and shooting hand which I've stolen from my XBox's NHL 09 rosters -- not the most reliable source, but I'm sure it's getting its information from somewhere. At any rate, here's largely the list of players who will be competing to be on the opening night forward lines:
Player | Pos | Shoots |
R. Getzlaf | C | R |
C. Perry | RW | R |
J. Lupul | RW | R |
S. Koivu | C | L |
T. Selanne | RW | R |
B. Ryan | RW | R |
T. Marchant | C | L |
E. Artyukhin | RW | L |
P. Nokelainen | RW | R |
G. Parros | RW | R |
E. Christensen | C | L |
R. Carter | C | L |
M. Brown | RW | R |
A. Ebbett | C | L |
Notice anything crazy? Not a single LW to be found anywhere -- that's not to say that players haven't played the position at all (probably most of Bobby Ryan's NHL career has been on the left side, for example), but seemingly Anaheim has zero natural left wings. For sure the Ducks will have to come up with four left-wingers to round out their roster; if Andrew Ebbett can prove useful on that ignored side of the ice, maybe he can forge a way into Anaheim's top six or at least better situate himself to become a staple in the lineup.
Also at issue is the lack of experienced penalty-killing forwards -- out of the 14 names listed to the left, I feel like only Marchant, Brown, Nokelainen, and Carter have demonstrated decent PK ability (I suppose I could be bullied into including Getzlaf here, but it's probably not good for the Ducks' offense if the Bald One becomes a shorthanded staple). Especially for a team with the penalty-happy tendencies of Anaheim, there's going to be a need for more depth players to step up into a PK role, and again, if Ebbett's speed game can prove useful towards that, he'll much more cement himself as an everyday player.
It's also not insignificant that Ebbett is the lowest on this pay-scale totem pole; like last year, he is an unbelievable salary cap bargain. Even if Ebbett doesn't crack the everyday lineup, he's not likely to be moved, I wouldn't think -- he'd still make a hell of a reserve.
* * *
I really don't want to sound like an Ebbett naysayer, nor a guy who's down on his abilities or potential, but I'm worried about his ability to crack Anaheim's lineup full-time next year (though I'm certainly willing to be argued otherwise in the comments). Even so, I think Ebbett does have some opportunity to make some noise from the LW position or as a PK forward -- the Ducks are seemingly thin in both those areas. He'll certainly have competition for those roles and may get beat out -- we'll know a lot more when camp gets going -- but at least Coach Carlyle has plenty of forward options -- nobody's really backing into a role. It may take some tinkering to find the right combinations, but hopefully the resulting lineup provide enough quality play to offset potential question marks on the blueline (something I'll be getting to soon enough) and thus survive the notorious post-Pronger curse. Here's hoping.
Go Ducks.

Willie Mae Ford Smith
Willie Mae Ford Smith
Considered the greatest of the "anointed singers" -- artists who live according to the spirit, and who perform with the ultimate aim of saving souls -- Willie Mae Ford Smith was among the most legendary gospel vocalists of her era; rarely recorded, her enormous reputation instead rested almost entirely on her incendiary live performances, where her dramatic, physical style inspired many of the finest soloists to follow in her wake. She was also the first to introduce the "song and sermonette," the act of delivering a lengthy sermon before, during, or after a performance. Smith was born in 1906 in Rolling Fork, MS and raised in Memphis; one of 14 children, she was the daughter of a railroad brakeman who relocated the family to St. Louis in 1918. There her mother opened a restaurant, where Smith soon began working full-time, leaving school during the eighth grade; though raised as a devout Baptist, she sang everything from blues to reels as a child, but upon forming her family quartet the Ford Sisters, she turned solely to gospel.

I'm all for having a gun in your house to protect you & don't care if people go to shooting ranges, but why do you need to carry a gun in public? It's slightly terrifying if you think about how many people could be carrying one.

She asked me if I wanted to move up and eventually become a manager, etc and I said I did especially if I couldn't find a teaching job. I actually think this is a path I want to head down.

A Holiday Gift Guide: What Presidents Want From Their Enrollment Managers - Monday Musings
It's the season for gift-giving, which caused S&K to think this week about what college presidents would like to receive from their enrollment managers. Presidents are so hard to shop for. Here are a few gift ideas for you:
A healthy, collaborative relationship between the EM and the chief financial officer. The relationship should be an open, trusting and mutually supportive one. There should be a cohort-based revenue plan, with enrollment, institutional aid, net tuition revenue and discount rates for each student cohort as it enters the institution and then progresses through to graduation. It should be updated at least annually, if not each term.
Effective collaboration between the EM and the chief academic officer, too. The EM needs…Read more
Two Ugly Words & One Bright Future - Monday Musings
[Note: This post is provided by Mike Williams, President of the Austen Group, which recently became part of RuffaloCODY. The Austen Group provides institutional research and analysis to private colleges and universities in the areas of curriculum and cost, inquiry to enrollment modeling, and retention.]
It is more important than ever that colleges and universities understand the business metrics underlying the academic programs they offer. One needs to understand the external demand for a school's programs—nursing compared to psychology compared to philosophy—as measured by the number of prospective students who express an interest in each major, and the internal demand—the number of graduates in each major. Then, of course, the cost…Read more
Collaboration between Admissions & Faculty - Monday Musings
Accessibility of faculty is an integral part of the experience at most institutions; this message is most effectively delivered by the faculty themselves. Beyond the obvious opportunities like meeting with families one-on-one during individual visits, allowing prospective students to sit in on classes, and being available at open house events, here are some best practice examples of faculty support for recruitment:
Challenge faculty to create "wow" experiences for all recruitment events that will demonstrate what it is like to be a student at your institution, such as: investigating a mock crime scene, performing with a musical ensemble, playing a stock trading game, or participating in a debate. The goal is for each visitor to have an…Read more
Partnership: Admissions and Marketing - Monday Musings
One of the many "turf wars" we frequently observe on campuses is: "Where does marketing report and who sets the marketing agenda?" Often, the pull and tug play out between the vice president for advancement and the vice president for enrollment with the president as the referee.
At issue is marketing resources – expertise and budgets. The concern often expressed is that if marketing reports to advancement, admissions and enrollment will be shorted. Conversely if marketing is part of the enrollment management organization, advancement frets that all the resources will be consumed by recruitment, admissions, and enrollments, with none left for fundraising and friend-raising. Some presidents have resolved the conflict, they think, by having…Read more
Collaboration between Advancement & Enrollment Management - Monday Musings
As recently as ten years ago, S&K found the financial aid and admissions offices working at cross purposes at many institutions. In many cases, the financial aid office was focused on staying on budget; the admissions staff was focused on meeting class size goals; and no one was thinking about how to optimize net tuition revenue. Now most institutions have solved that disconnect. However, advancement and enrollment management continue to function as silos on many campuses, missing significant opportunities to collaborate to the benefit of the institution. Here are a few examples:
The advancement office focuses on matching donor's interests to institutional needs but often interprets institutional needs for scholarship support as "more…Read more
Higher Education & Collaboration - Monday Musings
My first class in my master's program was titled: "Leadership in Higher Education." The class provided a great introduction to leadership issues in higher education and challenged my thinking about effective leadership in the academy.
One of my memories from the class was something the professor said multiple times throughout the semester: "Higher education often fails to have its maximum influence on society because leaders within institutions do not collaborate." The professor spoke about collaboration at length that semester. Our assignments even centered around collaboration. One assignment in particular required us to identify two offices/areas on our campuses that were not collaborating and bring them together with the goal…Read more
For New Directors/Deans of Admissions, Financial Aid & Enrollment Management: What should you focus on the first three months? - Monday Musings
Hands down it's the people. It's your direct reports; their teams and the support staff; the other directors with whom you need to partner; and finally, your supervisor(s).
Regardless of how creative and productive you are personally, you will only maximize your potential and produce optimal results through the people with whom you have built a relationship of trust and mutual respect. There are, however, subtle but very real differences in your relationship-building agenda for each audience. The following are some examples:
Direct reports – This is your "go to" team and, with the exception of your supervisor(s), these are the people with whom you must forge the most solid relationship, in this case as coach/mentor. You need to get…Read more
CRMs: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Monday Musings
A client recently asked me for my perspective on a particular Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software product. As more and more institutions realize they need to communicate in a much more targeted, personal way to prospective students, and capture their responses, interest in such systems is growing. So I gave a lot of thought to this question and realized that I actually think that the question itself is the wrong question. I have seen successes and failures with almost every CRM on the market, which makes me think a particular institution's experience is less about the product and more about the implementation process and the skill sets and training of folks on campus.
Making the decision to buy a particular CRM product is not…Read more
More Applications NOT a Good Thing? - Monday Musings
When are more applications not a good thing? We recently visited a campus that had increased its applications for admission five- fold over the last few years. That sounds like a good thing, right? But there can be some risks involved.
First, if your internal processes and infrastructure aren't prepared for the increase in volume, application processing will be log jammed and turnaround time will be poor. This can make an institution that purports to be small and personal feel like the DMV.
Second, if your sales force is now all consumed with application review, they won't have time to sell. Building relationships and taking the time to make the case for value is critical to high conversion rates, especially at high- cost, private institutions,…Read more
Making the Boss Happy - Monday Musings
Whether you are a counselor, a director, a vice president, or even a president, you are reporting to someone, and here are seven pointers for building a good relationship with that person or group.
Come to them with possible solutions, not just the problem. Ideally, you will have gathered some data about the issue, brainstormed for some ideas to address the core challenge, and thought about the pros and cons of each approach.
Play well with others. Often you will need to work with staff outside your own unit. Be proactive in working across office lines to enhance processes, service to students, or develop strategies to support enrollment and revenue goals. And, within your own unit, be a team player.
Be transparent and think about your…Read more
Training & Evaluating Financial Aid Staff - Monday Musings
What sort of training and evaluation program do you have for your staff? I frequently visit financial aid offices that take a "trial by fire" approach to training, do not periodically audit work product or counseling sessions, and do not routinely conduct performance appraisals. Consequently, it is not surprising that a refrain we often hear in student focus groups is that answers to their questions vary from staff member to staff member. In higher education institutions, people are typically the biggest asset; salaries are typically the biggest line item; and yet programs to ensure maximum effectiveness and productivity from staff are often not in place. The real irony, at least in the financial aid profession, is that there are many resources…Read more
The Shopping Sheet - Monday Musings
I was just looking at the final version of the Department of Education and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau "Shopping Sheet" and wondering how many of our clients are planning to use it. My biggest concern with it is that the "what you will pay" section includes total cost of attendance minus gift aid, rather than direct costs minus gift aid. When I was a financial aid director, families found the whole concept of indirect costs versus direct costs very confusing, so I finally listed only direct costs (tuition, room, board, and mandatory fees) at the top of the award letter, with an estimate in a later paragraph of the other costs they would have for books, transportation, personal expenses, etc. That solved the problem, but doing…Read more
And The Financial Aid Office Reports To... Monday Musings
Where should the financial aid office report? To Enrollment Management? To the CFO? Student Affairs? Somewhere else? We are frequently asked this question, largely because the aid office does not have one natural home. No matter what area oversees it, the financial aid office will have responsibilities outside of its direct reporting line. The aid office provides support and interacts closely with several different areas, including: recruitment and admissions, budget management, advancement, institutional research, registrar, student accounts, and student affairs, all while providing customer service, keeping up with processing, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations.
Often, the financial aid office is short on resources,…Read more
Organizational Effectiveness - Monday Musings
When institutions create silos, customer service suffers. Stated another way, when colleges and universities organize and create policies and practices from an internal point of view (e.g., administrative convenience, job security, etc.) versus a vision of how the institution looks from the outside, navigation can be a nightmare, service gaps are routine, and redundancies are rampant.
Let me cite two examples of administrative dysfunctionality, one that crosses divisional boundaries and one that exists within an administrative unit.
First, registration policies that do not take into account the unique need for timely course availability for newly enrolled transfer students can add considerably to time to degree. At a minimum, the admissions…Read more
Less Like a Funnel, More Like a Stream - Monday Musings
We've taken to thinking of college admissions as less like a funnel and more like a stream, as students enter the admissions process at various points in the flow and the admissions staff is simultaneously communicating with prospective freshmen, transfers, athletes, musicians, sophomores, juniors, seniors, parents, etc. To manage this increasing complexity, consider giving responsibility for one of these "micro-streams" to each recruiter, just as you would assign them geographic territories for recruitment.
Then, for each micro-stream:
Use several years of data to set a target for the coming year.
Create a mini-recruitment plan, complete with timelines and action steps.
Identify the funding and resources necessary to achieve the…Read more
Abrupt Staffing Changes: Are You Prepared? - Monday Musings
I was recently talking with someone from an institution where a key leader in admission and financial aid had given very short notice of his departure during a critical part of the enrollment cycle (application evaluation time and the beginning of financial aid awarding).
This discussion got me thinking about another situation I encountered a few months ago at a small institution where financial aid packaging was done manually by one individual who had not documented the process. How reliant are you on key individuals with specialized knowledge? What would happen if these people were suddenly not available? Since financial aid packaging season is here, and you can't afford inaccurate or delayed offers of financial aid, take a moment to evaluate…Read more
Planning, Decision-Making & Good Communication - Monday Musings
We recently encountered an auxiliary service that decided in May to charge a room deposit of $750 for new and returning students. Rather than incorporate it into the student billing system, they simply mailed out their own bills. Students and parents were aggravated, wondering why they were getting a separate bill and why the amount was so high. Another institution reported that they routinely sent bills with the wrong tuition to students enrolling in one particular program because the registrar wanted to be sure the students were really coming before correcting the tuition charge. The correction (as much as $8,000 higher) left the financial aid office scrambling to adjust aid awards. Similarly, sending out bills without informing financial…Read more
Higher Education Entrepreneurship: The Good, the Bad & the Ugly - Monday Musings
Not-for-profit higher education institutions have the reputation of being slow to change; unresponsive to market demand; and unimaginative with respect to delivery modes. This is beginning to change, however, and one is starting to see more interest in approaches that differ from the standard 12-15 credits, semester-based, course delivery method.
While this change is positive in many ways, it is important for the entrepreneurial minds developing new approaches to remember that federal financial aid regulations, and most higher education software systems, in many ways are still driven by traditional delivery modes. Consequently, it can be very difficult to ensure compliance with federal regulations when providing financial aid to students in…Read more

They ended up making us sign for a car we didn't even tried. And at the end, when we tried it, we noticed that it had 1,000 miles!!!! So we didn't want the deal anymore.....
Moreover they called a broker to get us an insurance that has "full coverage" over the phone. And the guy said quoted us for $140/month and when I asked him
what it covered exactly, he didn't want to tell me. He kept saying "everything".
We didn't bring the car home cause we wanted stripes on it and other features but the deal was already cancelled since they showed us a car with a 1,000 miles on it.
Also, we kept telling them that we wanted to think about it and come next week but they would not let us go until we signed for a car we did not want.
Also, they never gave us copies of the contract because they ordered another car and they did not know how many miles it had on it. Basically we did not see the car we wanted nor tried it.
Moreover, the contract said that if we did not provide proof of income, the contract is void (actually, the contract said that once we give all the papers and proof of income, then we have to buy the car) but when we were
there, we did not have any proof. So they wanted to follow us home (about 1 hour 30 minutes away).
Basically they were really aggressive.
Also the next day they kept calling and harrassing us because they wanted the proofs of income....
They were really rude and aggressive and we had to come back to sign other papers to finalize the contract (and that's why they kept the contract).
Anyhow we do not want to deal with people who are that aggressive.

I did not go back there!
AUTHOR: Bmpro - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, August 01, 2007
I did not go back there. They kept harrassing me on the phone and I told them to stop calling me otherwise I will report them to the police and they stopped calling.
Although today they called saying that the car will be ready to get picked up after I told them that I did not want it.
I am sorry but I think that if a customer does not want a car that has not even been order and that the seller wants to "force" us to buy it, then this is not right.
He has nothing to lose....he never ordered the car and didn't do
the tuning on it.
Also I contacted another ford dealership who said that they cannot "force" us to buy the car and they are just trying to trick us and
because we don't have the car, we don't have to buy it.
Anyways they said we had to go back there to sign another contract because they did not have the car we wanted.
So why are they trying to keep selling us the car? They are also being really rude.
What will be the customer service?
I don't want to hear anymore from these people.
Please if you have any suggestion, let me know. thank you!

Next time, take a knowledgable person with you, someone big and scary looking, so the dealer will be afraid to "MAKE" you sign something.
Sounds to me that you had several "outs" to this contract, but you bought the car anyway? Even drove a couple of hours back to the dealer to re-sign papers? Come on, if that's what happened, you didn't get ripped off, you asked for it!

"Anyhow we do not want to deal with people who are that aggressive."
So why did you?
It sounds like you are blaming the dealer for your buyer's remorse.

High Tea?
I am looking for a nice high tea, preferably Westside, but will go to Pasadena if need be. I was thinking of Rose Cottage in Pasadena, but I believe its closed right now.
Anyone know of a place (I like sandwiches better than the scones and pastries and clotted cream, but a mix is ok too)?
Also, a place where you can get dolled up in vintage and maybe even wear a hat is a plus (although if its a choice between that and not breaking the bank, I'll forego the eyelet bolero)
I'm not sure how up to date this is, but it'll give you some ideas.
Have you tried Chado in Pasadena? 79 N. Raymond Ave., heart of Old Town. The tea selection is spectacular, the sandwiches are yummy and creative and the scones and conventional English tea goodies are adequate. Here, Tea is the star of the show.
I second the Peninsula Hotel rec (tho I am booked to try The London next Sunday afternoon, following the excellent recs here)
re: noshie
^ I've done both and I recall the Peninsula was hands-down the best experience for afternoon tea.
I think it really boils down to this:
do you want to take tea indoors in a nicely appointed and swankily comfortable room (Peninsula - yes, the harp music is just lovely)
do you prefer to sup while on a lovely terrace at the Bel Air surrounded by fresh flowers and swans etc?
re: Maxmillion
Well, I just had it at the Bel Air Hotel. First, I think it would have been nicer on a sunnier day, it was quite gloomy out today.
I sat in a booth on the terrace that had a see through tarp looking out to the swan lake, but you could only really see the trees. Very lovely terrace. It was very nice service, nice tea (although a rather limited selection). Pretty china, but maybe some lump sugar rather than just packets would be a nice fancy touch (but overall it was plenty fancy). They offered champagne at the beginning and then refilled without being asked.
The sandwich platter they brought was just on a plate, not on a caddy. Each person got 4 small sandwichs (curried chicken, cucumber, salmon with a little swath of caviar and a small round one with a piece of egg on it). The cucumber sandwich was delicious, the other three just ordinary (although the curried chicken had a wonderful bit on top that looked like an olive, tasted like a truffle, but the waiter told us was a baby peach). Overall, however, I would have liked more sanwiches.
The sweets were very nice, I liked the scones with Devon cream and lemon curd. One of the chocolate berry things with pink frosting on top was not good, but a coffee/chocolate thing was quite good, as was the chocolate covered strawberry. I did not try the chocolate chip cookies or other cookies except for a bite of one that tasted like ginger or cinnnamon that I was not partial too)
It was a little loud at times on the terrace, and I did not hear any music playing (I heard about that harp, but the Peninsula did not have openings at the right time).
Its a lovely place and I'm glad I went, but I wasn't blown away by the quality of the food (I've had better at the Palace hotel in SF, and I think maybe you can get comparable or even better food with quite a nice atmosphere in LA too). Its very pricey, $49 per person, the child was half price however.
The Gordon Ramsay at the London is very nice, and their sandwiches are probably the best tea sandwiches I've had in a while. The Peninsula has another traditional hotel tea.
The Scarlet Tea Room in Pasadena gets raves, although I've not personally been.
Rose Tree Cottage is very nice, and probably the most British-feeling. All homemade, so it's not cheap and no credit cards.
I usually like the Huntington, but my last visit was disappointing. It's buffet, and some of the tea sandwiches were too close to the jets so they were almost frozen.
re: sidwich
It's a bit pricey, but I adore Paris In a Cup in Orange. It's darling and the food is delicious:
Gardens Restaurant at Four Seasons.
Jin Patisserie in Venice has some great selections, and beautiful cakes.
I like the Huntington Gardens best though, since you have such a great place to spend a whole day at.

I love love the high tea at the Biltmore in downtown LA. this time of year, they decorate it for the holidays and its pretty. they also have a champagne high tea as well, the food is really delicious.
i also had high tea at the Beverly Wilshire ages ago when i was a kid, but i just remember the room being pretty, but don't remember anything about the food. (i was a snotty kid with my friends who only wanted burger king at the time - haha)
Hmm this was afternoon tea and not high tea, but you still get everything from scones to sandwiches to pastries at the Gordon Ramsay at the London.
Here's my review where I went through everything we had, so you can decide if it's something you want to try! A lot closer than Pasadena anyway :)
re: Bob Brooks
They aren't listening, Bob. 90% of the American public is convinced that "high" refers to an increased level of formality, and not (as is indeed the case) to the height of the table, i.e. the kitchen table as opposed to a low tea-table. If you gave'em a REAL high tea, say a mug of milky tea and a ham sandwich, they'd think you were the loony one.
re: Will Owen
Thanks for the clarification. I thought it related to glam factor.
All of this talk of pub food makes me wonder if London is worth another shot, last time I ventured past Heathrow (which I note has that great looking oyster bar) it was all Wimpy Burgers and Pizzaland and funny tasting oil on the fish and chips.

People often ask me what it takes to get into the wild world of washer and dryer reviews. I'll tell you: you need nerves of steel, you must be devilishly good looking, and you've got to be quick to make a tortured metaphor. For example, marketing materials describe the Samsung DV456EWHDSU/AA (MSRP $1,049) as a King Sized dryer. But it doesn't rule over the bedsheet people via divine right. Its royal pedigree comes from a 7.

Inquilab Shrivastav turns seventy today. That person has for four decades and more built the brand that is Amitabh Bachchan. Writing anything about him is like explaining cricket to a bunch of Indians. Everyone else knows more than you. If cricket and films are like religion in India, Amitabh surely has his place in the pantheon. It is hard to say or write anything about him that is not already known and rehashed a million times over already.
When I look at the brand called Amitabh Bachchan, all that I can think of is his resilience. I admire his ability to build his craft bit by bit. Expand his repertoire of skills and constantly challenge his own capabilities and shape the expectations of his audience. It is hard to think of brands which have done this so successfully for so long.
Whenever he has ventured into a new field, he has taken one tentative step in that direction. In many instances he has failed. But then immediately after that he has reinvented himself and risen above his failure.
Films: His career had a lame start. His first film as a voice narrator was Bhuvan Shome. His first film was Saat Hindustani (1969). His first Filmfare award was for Anand (1971) as best Supporting Actor. It was with Zanjeer (1973) that Amitabh reinvented himself as the "Angry Young Man". An image that was reinforced in Deewar (1973). Then reinvented himself several times over. Whether it was the courage to make a film like Silsila (and I don't of too many examples where public figures have had the same players play out the controversy on screen) or to take Nishabd (2007) or Cheeni Kum (2007), he has certainly challenged his brand appeal. No other actor's appeal has lasted for so long and straddles so many generations.
Brand Amitabh is about challenging established norms.
Singing: The famous baritone has its own challenges. He isn't a naturally gifted singer. His initial forays into singing were tentative whether it was in Kabhie Kabhie (1976) or in Amar Akbar Anthony (1977) with "My name is Anthony Gonsalves" (1977) or Mere Paas Aao Mere Doston (1979). In Laawaris (1981) when he sang his father's composition "Mere Angne Mein" he was still treading cautiously. But with Rang Barse in Silsila (1981) he really started his career as a singer. In fact, Rang Barse or the Holi Khele Raghubeera from Baghban (2003) are now a part of our collective consciousness that gets more deeply etched each year when we celebrate Holi. As a singer he has tried his hand at Folk Music, Rap, Pop and keeps on experimenting by singing in different languages.
Health: In 1982 while shooting for the film Coolie, Big B was punched by co-actor Puneet Issar. Bachchan, who wanted to do that shot himself rather than use a duplicate, had to fall on a table and then roll on to the ground. But as he jumped towards the table, the corner of the table hit his abdomen leading to a rupture in his spleen causing a lot of blood loss. He collapsed on the stage and then had to be operated upon. He bounced back to complete the film which went on to be a blockbuster.
He was subsequently diagnosed with Myesthania Gravis - a neuromuscular ailment that causes muscle weakness and fatigue. Despite numerous surgeries and continual treatment, he continues unhindered. He suffers from health challenges but keeps pulling himself up from his bootstraps.
Brand Amitabh demonstrates resilience despite his health.
ABCL: The company floated in 1996 organized the Miss World pageant. Then went on to produce films like Gulabi and Saat Rang Ke Sapne (1996) that bombed. Five years later he relaunched the company in a new avatar as AB Corp Ltd and produced blockbusters like Paa and Bbuddha Hoga Tera Baap.
Brand Amitabh will relaunch himself despite his adversities.
Small Screen: Amitabh entered the silver screen with Kaun Banega Crorepati in the year 2000. After a four year break, the show was started in 2005 but had to be dropped because of Bachchan's health issues. Shahrukh Khan hosted the third season and had the challenge of being repeatedly compared with Bachchan's chaste Hindi, dignified response to the hysteria he generates among participants and viewers. Season four and five were again hosted by Amitabh and so is the current season. The pattern is the same. He will always come back to complete what he has started and then take it to its pinnacle. He speaks the kind of chaste Hindi that would put Doordarshan to shame and makes it cool to speak it that way.
At seventy he remains a role model with his work ethic. He has endorsed hair oil, cement, Gujarat Tourism, chocolates and yet seems to do something when we see him endorsing stuff he does not and will not personally use. His voice and dance style has been much imitated. What I like about brand Amitabh is that he has not let success prevent him from testing his own limits and the limits of acceptance of his fans. That is a tough act for any brand to follow.
Happy birthday to brand Amitabh Bachchan. Stay courageous. Stay inimitable.

An addition here, he is the Company & he is the Product. With so many differentiated Product Models, he also is Marketing Guru. Some day the Author could take it as a classic case in Marketing Strategy & regarding ABCL well that was a massive HR fiasco. Regards Rajesh.
no doubt, an institution.........starting off in an industry that dubbed him ugly, lanky-------the man has withstood the test of time, carving a niche...of the hundred years of indian cinema-half belong to him-and that is sheer star power! heartiest felicitations..................you have enriched indian cinema-making it go global!

Definición de allemande en inglés:
Saltos de línea: alle|mandePronunciación: /ˈalmɑːnd
- 1Any of a number of German dances, in particular an elaborate court dance popular in the 16th century.Más ejemplos en oraciones
- As such courtly French dances as the allemande and courante eventually overtook the pavan and galliard in popularity, so they were assimilated into the suite.
- Tureck gives us real dreams not only in weighty sarabande, but also in the so-called 'lighter' dances of the allemande, corrente, and gigue.
- Similarly, we can discover all different kinds of allemandes, courantes, sarabandes and 'Galanterien', although our knowledge of the subtleties of Bach's local subgenres of dances is still very limited.
- 1.1The music for an allemande, especially as a movement of a suite: the deep and moving Allemande which opens Suite No. 20Más ejemplos en oraciones
- To the traditional form of the suite - allemande, courante, sarabande, and gigue - Bach added an introductory Prélude with a pair of fashionable modern dances.
- The suites mostly have four short movements, a prelude or allemande, courante, sarabande and gigue, with some variants.
- 1.2A figure in country dancing in which adjacent dancers link arms or join hands and make a full or partial turn: 'Pass through, ends crossfold, left allemande.'Más ejemplos en oraciones
- So we can jig and reel, we are capable of pas de pax setting, possettes and allemande, and we even know the names of some of the people that go there.
late 17th century: from French, 'German (dance)'.

Pandemic Preparedness Planning
On Sunday, April 26, 2009, the U.S. Government declared a Public Health Emergency in the wake of an of an outbreak of H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu) which originated in Mexico and quickly spread to several states in the U.S. On Thursday, June 11th, the World Health Organization (WHO) raised the pandemic alert level from 5 to 6, its highest level, as the WHO confirmed nearly 30,000 cases of H1N1 Flu in 74 countries, indicating the virus was contagious, spreading easily from one person to another, and from one country to another. As of July 31st, 2009 the WHO has reported 162,380 confirmed cases in 168 countries with 1154 deaths. Based on this evidence, the World Health Organization reported that the world was now at the start of an influenza pandemic.
The federal government considers a pandemic a unique circumstance necessitating a strategy that extends well beyond health and medical boundaries.

Comments about Kokatat Women's Gore Rogue Drytop:
This drytop was above my price range but I splurged on it anyway and I'm glad I did! The fit is perfect. I'm busty and there is plenty of room for "the girls" in this drytop. Likewise, plenty of room in the arms and shoulder area. It is not at all restrictive. This drytop keeps me warm and dry. Every time I wear it, I'm reminded how much I love it!
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was prompt and arrived in good condition. Stretched the neck gasket out overnight and used the drytop the very next morning for a long day on the river.
