Honeywell Earns Highest CMMI Rating For Software And Development Process Maturity
MINNEAPOLIS, March 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (NYSE:HON) today announced that its Building Solutions (HBS) and Process Solutions (HPS) businesses have been appraised at Maturity Level 5 of Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), the highest and most prestigious level of global recognition in software development that a company can achieve. About 6 percent of the more than 6,000 organizations with published appraisals results have achieved this status.
CMMI is a process improvement appraisal framework administered by the CMMI Institute to determine the maturity of an organization's software and development processes. By reaching CMMI Maturity Level 5, Honeywell's Building and Process Solutions businesses have shown superior and well-defined, standardized software development processes. Honeywell's longstanding commitment to Six Sigma and continuous process improvement provides the culture, tools, methodologies and skills to enable the development and use of high-maturity practices for software development.
"To be appraised at Maturity Level 5 is a significant accomplishment that few companies have achieved," said Dan Sheflin, chief technology officer, Honeywell Automation and Control Solutions. "The CMMI rating is the highest form of third-party validation that we can receive in software development, and our rigorous processes have led to as much as a 25% improvement in development cycle time for complex software projects. We are honored to achieve this recognition."
Avnet Services, based in Phoenix, performed the appraisal of a variety of projects including Honeywell Experion ® Process Knowledge System, used in oil refineries and manufacturing facilities, and Honeywell Enterprise Buildings Integrator, used to bring together existing building systems, providing seamless digital information and control across all building operational management systems. The company evaluated the projects over a two-week period and identified key strengths in systematic monitoring of the project status resulting in sustained product integrity, interactions with stakeholders throughout the development process to ensure the understanding of business and product requirements, and early mitigation of technical risks that has improved development cycle time and product quality.
"There are proven linkages between higher CMMI maturity and improved product development and business results," said Rolf Reitzig, senior business unit director-software engineering for Avnet Services. "Achieving CMMI Maturity Level 5 clearly demonstrates Honeywell is committed to developing high-quality products for its customers." Honeywell employs more than 20,000 engineers worldwide, half of whom are focused on developing software offerings that make the world safer and more secure, more comfortable and energy efficient, more innovative and productive.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

References letters are normally not required for Canadian universities.

Good idea to apply to 3 – 5 post-secondary institutions. Always, always, always have a back-up plan.

Failure to complete this form will result in the Ministry not transferring your marks to the post-secondary institutions to which you have applied! Apply! Apply! Apply! Deadline for most post-secondary institutions in B.C. is February 28th! Remember that some university application deadlines may be sooner! Applications for housing are usually due at the same time as university admissions applications. March 1, 2010 – deadline to apply for Queen"s University entrance bursaries March 1, 2010 – Queen"s University Personal Statement of Experience due March 2010 Self-report Term 2 marks on-line if university has on-line reporting (UBC, SFU, UVIC). UBC will NOT accept Distributed Learning (DL) or Continuing Education (CE) courses in-progress to be self-reported. If you are taking a Distributed Learning Course or a Continuing Education course that you want to use for your admission average to UBC, the course must be at least 50% complete by April and your interim mark must be reported directly to the Ministry of Education. UBC will ONLY accept DL or CE interim marks reported directly by the Ministry of Education, NOT from University Hill Secondary. Transcripts do NOT have to be mailed to BC universities and colleges, unless specifically required by the program to which you have applied.

Term 2 marks sent electronically to the Ministry of Education in Victoria by your school(s).

May 2010 Ministry of Education sends Term 2 marks electronically to post-secondary institutions. Provincial exam registry check. Your counsellor will post a list of all the exams that you are registered to write in June. You may delete or add exams. Students continue to receive information on their admission status and conditional offers of admission. Pay admission deposit by the college or university"s deadline. Universities notify students of their course registration date. Good idea to start drafting a course timetable BEFORE your course registration date. You should be ready to submit your timetable on your course registration date, NOT just starting to create one. Make an appointment with the Career Information Advisor if you require assistance making your timetable. Attend a Course Planning workshop offered by college counselling offices for students enrolled in a University Transfer program Do you need to apply for a student loan? Attend a lunch hour information session at University Hill Secondary with a post-secondary financial aid advisor.

See BC Ministry of Education website (http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/) for the exact dates and times. On-line course registration begins for universities. College course registration begins in the summer Canada/BC Student Loan on-line application opens mid-June. If you are applying for a student loan to attend an out-of-province post-secondary institution, you must complete a paper-based application form which is available at the end of June Need a summer job? Visit Service Canada"s Student Employment Centre Lots of volunteer opportunities available during the summer time. Visit the Career Centre for details.

All students are required to write the English 12 provincial exam, which is a graduation requirement. Colleges are based on first come, first served basis, so apply EARLY! If you are applying to a university in Ontario, apply on-line at the Ontario Universities Application Centre (OUAC), which processes applications for admission to all of Ontario"s universities. Use the OUAC 105 application available at www.ouac.on.ca/105/ . The base application fee is $110 for your initial 3 university/program choices and $35 for each additional choice. Each university you apply to will also charge a Supplemental/Document Evaluation Fee that ranges from $40 to $80, depending on the university. Please note that accepting an offer at one university will not cancel your applications to other universities/programs. However, applicants may have only one acceptance of an offer on file at a time. Before applicants can accept a subsequent offer on-line, they must first cancel the previously accepted offer. Should a student wish to re-accept an offer that they had previously declined, they must contact the university admissions office directly. Please speak to Ms. O"Connor, the Career Information Advisor, if you have any questions about this or you are concerned about accepting or declining offers of admission.

Page 11 of 28 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT APPLYING TO UBC FOR GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS Contact: Student Recruiting & Advising Phone: 604-822-9836 Applications will be accepted early October 2009. Students should apply through you.ubc.ca by creating a youbc account or the PASBC website at www.pas.bc.ca. Self-reporting opens in March and April; Students self-report Term 2 grades. What a student reports on-line will be verified in May when the Ministry of Education sends the student"s marks electronically to UBC. Final marks are verified by UBC in July. Please be accurate in what you report; it must be the same as what the Ministry will send in May. Students must report all grade 11 and grade 12 courses completed or in progress. Although grade 11 courses will not be used in calculating an admission average, these courses are required to meet prerequisites for admission. When students self-report their grades on-line, in many cases, they will receive an immediate response with a firm offer of admission. If a student does not receive an offer, it is usually for any of the reasons listed below: Missing documentation (e.g. landed immigrant/citizenship papers, TOEFL results). Please note that if documents are missing, students will not be able to access the self-admission tool The student has applied to Commerce where a Supplemental Application is required before an admission decision can be made Some programs use broad-based admission. If students do not present the required average for admission for these programs, they may complete a Supplemental Application Form. The Student has applied to a program with additional requirements (e.g. Music requires an Audition and Music Supplementary Application)) Distributed Learning and Continuing Education Courses and Grades For Distributed Learning (DL) or Continuing Education (CE) courses in progress: as of Fall 2008, BC secondary school students were no longer able to self-report interim grades. You may only self-report a DL or CE course if it is completed and the final mark has been submitted to the Ministry of Education and is in your home school records. Grade 12 students taking DL or CE courses are advised to have their DL or CE school submit their in progress course information directly to the Ministry of Education. Each course must be at least 50% complete by April of the student's grade 12 year. All DL and CE course information must come to UBC directly from the BC Ministry of Education in order to be used in the UBC admission decision. Students should not submit their DL or CE course information to their secondary school record until the course is complete and a final grade is available.

UBC's President's Entrance Scholarships No application required. Students are automatically considered based on their admission average. The criteria are as follows: o Based on final grades o Determined by the courses used for admission purposes o 95%+ average = $4,000 plus early course registration date and eligible to apply for housing o 90% - 94.99% = $2,000 plus early course registration date and eligible to apply for housing o 86% - 89.99% average = $500 + early course registration date UBC has a foreign language 11 requirement for all applicants. Students can meet the Language 11 requirement by: Taking the course at the grade 11 or grade 12 level (beginner's language course will NOT be accepted); Write a Challenge Exam; or Page 13 of 28 If the student's first day in BC (this also include Canadian students from other provinces) is in Grade 10, then the student must obtain a letter from the School Principal stating when he/she started in the BC school system. This provides an exemption for the student. If the student completed Grade 9 in another country where English is not the language of instruction, then that student is eligible for External language credits provided they forward the school with proper documentation i.e. Grade 8 + 9 report card. Grade 8 – External language Grade 11 Grade 9 – External language Grade 12 UBC's Policy Regarding BC Provincial Exams English 12 is the only provincial exam that is required for admission. Should a student write other optional provincial exams, the exam grades will be factored into admission decisions only if they help to increase a student's admission average. All grade 12 course and exam results should be provided to UBC and UBC will calculate the best possible admission average. The above information from UBC was updated in Sept 2009. Students and parents are advised that information could change without notice. Users of this material are responsible for verifying that the information is accurate and current.

An event not to be missed! Page 18 of 28 INFORMATION ABOUT THE LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY INDEX (LPI) EXAM Q: What is the purpose of the LPI? A: The purpose of the LPI is to provide information about an individual"s competency in English. The LPI is a requirement for enrolling in first year English at UBC and for placement into the appropriate English course at SFU, UVIC, Langara and Capilano College. All undergraduate students at UBC must take a first year English course in order to graduate. Q: What does the LPI test? A: It tests your functional literacy. The test consists of 4 parts comprising 80 points: identifying errors in sentence structure (10 points); identifying errors in English usage (10 points); evaluating and/or summarizing short prose passages (20 points); and writing a 300- to 400-word argumentative essay on one of three topics (40 points). The essay is marked holistically: expression, organization, and content are weighted equally. Q: Where can I write the LPI? A: University Hill will be offering one (1) sitting of the LPI during the 2009-2010 school year on Thursday, April 8, 2010 at 8:15am in P8. On-line registration will close at midnight on Sunday, March 28, 2010. No walk-ins are allowed. If you miss registering for this sitting, UBC and Langara offer public sittings once per month. However, there are different ID requirements if you register for a public sitting. (For more information about registering for a public sitting and ID requirements, visit the LPI website at www.lpi.ubc.ca.) It is highly recommended by your counsellor that you write the exam at your local high school, rather than at a public sitting. Q: How do I register for the LPI? A: It"s best to register on-line. Registration usually opens about a month prior to the test date. To register, go to www.lpi.ubc.ca. From the menu, select On-Line Services, then High School Sittings. Payment is by credit card ONLY. Remember to print your Test Admission ticket and bring it with you to the test. And remember to keep your ticket stub as it has your PIN number on it which will enable you to view your test scores on the LPI website. Q: When should I write the LPI? A: It is recommended that grade 12 students write the LPI during the 2009-2010 school year in order to ensure that the English Language requirement is met for the BC university or college to which the student has applied and prior to registering for university courses in June, 2010 or for college courses in the Summer 2010. If you leave it too late, all of the Page 19 of 28 available LPI test sittings may be full. In that case, you will NOT be able to take first year English and you will delay your program completion by up to a year. Please note that the LPI may not fulfill the English Facility Requirement for students whose first language is not English. These students may still need to take the TOEFL, which is a condition for admission. Q: Can I be exempt from writing the LPI? A: Exemptions vary by institution: UBC: if the student obtains a Term 2 grade in English 12 of at least 80%, they will not be required to write the LPI. SFU: students need to obtain a final grade in English 12 (school mark plus government exam mark) of at least 75% UVIC: if the student obtains a Term 2 grade in English 12 of at least 86%, they will not be required to write the LPI. Langara: final grade in English 12 of at least 80% required Q: How can I prepare for the LPI? A: Students should speak to their English teacher for advice. They can also purchase study materials from the LPI website. UBC offers an LPI preparation course in January and in the Spring through Continuing Education (www.writingcentre.ubc.ca/academic/index.html ).

Page 23 of 28 U.S./INTERNATIONAL APPLICATIONS ● The maximum number of U.S./International applications that your Counsellor will complete is six (6). Any more than this means your search is too broad and needs to be narrowed. ● Only under extenuating circumstances, and with plenty of notice, will your Counsellor be able to fill in additional U.S./International application forms. ● Remember you can only attend 1 college or university next year, so spend your time wisely, and carefully narrow your search to your top 3 choices. Confirm that you have the financial resources to pay for your tuition and all related costs. Some US schools may offer you financial aid, but you must apply for this when you submit your application. ● You MUST give your Counsellor a minimum of three (3) weeks to fill in U.S./International application forms. Please remember that we do NOT work during school vacations. Give teachers a minimum of three weeks to fill in US application forms and to provide letters of reference. The more time you give the teachers, the better quality your letters of reference will be. Provide stamped, addressed envelopes and fill in as much of your personal information as possible before giving these forms to someone to fill in for you. We will NOT fill in your personal demographic information for you. Please ensure that you have followed the instructions carefully. Each application has a specific format. Normally, use block letting and black ink for all applications. If you would like your applications and supporting documents sent by a courier, your counsellor can assist in storing your documents in the safe until they are ready to be packaged up. The school can order you a courier envelope in for the collection of your documents. You can drop it at Staples after it is sealed and signed by the counsellor.

COLUMBUS — Tom Bock raised his glass to salute those who worked for months to rebuild the American Legion Hartman Post 84 building.
"I raise a glass, if I may, to toast the members of Post 84 on the return to the ranks and the glorious legacy of the American Legion," said Bock, past national commander of the American Legion.
It was a little more than a year ago when the local American Legion, located at 2263 Third Ave., was damaged during a fire. It took months of cleaning up and planning, but the Legion was rebuilt. On Saturday evening, a rededication ceremony was held.
Bock, a David City native who now lives in Colorado, was the keynote speaker at the event.
The public was invited to attend and tour the new facility.
The building itself officially reopened Feb. 1 after it was closed for more than 10 months following the March 2012 fire.
It wasn't long after the doors opened that it was business as usual, which includes dinners and parties.
"We did start operation during the busiest time of the season here, Lent. We had a fish fry every week, and it kept growing and growing, and we had trouble keeping up," said Owen Lloyd, who headed the building committee.
The Legion plays hosts to wedding parties and Lloyd said next year's calendar is already filling up. He recently booked a wedding party for June 2015.
A $1 million renovation project gave the Legion a new look including an expanded banquet room, relocation of the lounge and an updated exterior.
Bock praised those involved in the rebuild, saying the new facility allows members to continue the mission that was established in 1919 when the first American Legion was born. The mission focuses on four pillars: care for veterans, care for children, patriotism and support of national defense.
"As Post 84 rises from the ashes in this beautiful building, I know they will give back to those four pillars," Bock said. "I know they will continue to serve America as the American Legion has done for 95 years. I know you will continue to serve your community, your children, your schools, your education systems and remember our troops."

Renaissance Grand operator is turnaround pro
- Samantha Liss
- Reporter- St. Louis Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
Hotel purchases and renovations are the bread and butter of the Renaissance Grand's new operating partner.
Since 2006, the Potomac, Md.-based investment firm, Haberhill Inc., has spent more than $142 million with various partners to purchase hotels across the U.S., and more than $63 million renovating those hotels.
The most recent purchase was in Minneapolis in 2011 when Haberhill and partner Starwood Capital bought the Hyatt Regency for $50 million and invested another $26 million on a complete overhaul.
Haberhill did the same in 2007 in Memphis after purchasing the Embassy Suites Hotel for an undisclosed amount, and then investing $5.5 million to renovate the property. A sale for the Memphis hotel is planned for 2013, and the deal is expected to come in the next few weeks, according to Haberhill.
In 2006, Haberhill, again with Starwood, purchased Minneapolis' convention center hotel, the Hilton Minneapolis, for $92 million. After a renovation, Haberhill and its partner sold the hotel for $156 million in 2010 to Diamond Rock Hospitality.
Haberhill "rarely makes mistakes," said Gary Andreas, hotel analyst with Chesterfield-based H&H Consulting.
Andreas said Haberhill tends to buy undervalued, higher-end hotel properties and renovate them, adding that he can't name any ventures in which Haberhill was not successful.
The man behind Haberhill is managing director Douglas Greene. He served as an executive with Marriott Corp. and Host Hotels and Resorts, formerly Host Marriott Corp, before forming Haberhill in 2000.
Greene said he will serve as the operating partner for the Renaissance Grand's buyer, 800 Washington LLC, which was formed to purchase the hotel from the bondholders who own it.

Camille and Kelsey Grammer finally sell their ski chalet holiday home for a whopping $6.6million... two years after bitter divorce
Kelsey and Camille Grammer have finally cut ties with their marital home in Colorado after divorcing two years ago.
The former couple recently sold their luxurious getaway for $6.6 million after it was put on the market for $7.9 million in 2011.
The profits for the sale are to be split by Kelsey and Camille per their initial divorce settlement.
Sold: Former Frasier star Kelsey Grammer and his ex Camille have finally parted ways with their Colorado
ski chalet for a whopping $6.6million
The ski chalet was originally
purchased during a happier time in 2002 for $5,350,000, making their
final sale quite a hefty profit for the former couple, according to Truliablog.com.
Marital home: Kelsey purchased the abode during his happier married times with ex-wife Camille in 2002
After spending two long years on the market the original sale price dropped over a million dollars before finding a buyer.
The 58-year-old actor was married to Camille for 15 years before divorcing two years ago.
Parting with the Beaver Creek home is most surely difficult for the 45-year-old the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who is known to have been saddened by the end of their marriage.
The 8.230 square foot property features seven-and-a-half bathrooms, a wine gallery and tasting room, a three-car garage, hot tub, and hardwood floors.
It sits on 1.67 acres surrounded by snow-capped mountains.
Community features are also available with a club membership.
There is also a breakfast nook, stone flooring, vaulted ceilings and a deck.
The Avon ski in/ski out manse was featured in a 2004 edition of Architectural Digest.
Kelsey purchased the home during his happier married times with Camille.
Camille only has two more homes to sell to free herself from all property ties with her former husband.
The reality star has put their Malibu house on the market for just under $15 million .
Stunning: The Avon ski in/ski out manse was featured in a 2004 edition of Architectural Digest
Lavish: The home features wood panelled ceilings and French windows
Meanwhile, Kelsey has made a $200,000 profit on the sale of a mansion he bought in Beverly Hills, California just last year.
The ex-Frasier star sold the Spanish Colonial mansion, which has six bedrooms, for $6.7 million after purchasing it, with his new wife Kayte Walsh, in April last year for $6.5 million.
The home was originally designed in 1926 and offers a dramatic two-story entry blends a perfectly proportioned galleria and step down living room,' according to the Keller Williams Hollywood Hills listing.
Master bedroom: The large home features beautiful vaulted ceilings
Cosy: One of the living rooms is decorated in warm red tones
It has a guest house, pool and gardens that are 'perfect for large-scale entertaining' and a three car garage plus gated motor court and was originally listed at $7.25 million.
Grammer, 58, split from his third wife, Camille, in 2010.
The pair are selling another Beverly Hills manor, but was recently forced to slash the asking price by more than $1 million as per their divorce, so this windfall is much needed.
Kayte, Kelsey and baby daughter Faith moved into their new family home a mere eight months ago, but he was forced to put his new Spanish-style estate back on the market following the cancellation of his show Boss.
Hungry? The kitchen is big enough to whip up a feast fit for a king
are six bedrooms, including a separate guest house, all with stunning
en suite baths. The residence is perfect for large-scale or intimate
entertaining,' the listing reveals.
Among the amenities the property boasts are a media room, a butler's pantry for food preparation and maid's accommodation, as well as a three-car garage to protect your vehicles.
The entry continues: 'Main-level includes a formal dining room, guest bath, play/media room, intimate den, butler's pantry with refrigerated wine storage, a large utility room with bath (possible maid's room). The home also features a detached 3-car garage, plus gated motor court.
Entertaining: The dining room has a beautiful view of the snow-capped mountains
'The home is completely private yet is a short walk from all the bars and restaurants of Beverly Hills.'
Kelsey is also hoping to offload two other homes.
His divorce settlement from ex-wife Camille calls for the sale of their 10,000sqft Beverly Hills estate, and a second home in Miami.
Kelsey and Camille - who have two children together - have a huge mortgage on the Beverly Hills house and were trying to sell it and halve the profit.

The more we look at ZombiU, the more we really want to play this game. It's quickly becoming a must have Wii U title when it launches with the console later this year. ZombiU is a survival horror first person shooter, where players try and survive as long as possible during a zombie apocalypse. Judging by the footage in the video, the game is coming along very well and has some interesting gameplay mechanics. Not to mention some nice visuals. ZombiU is one of two Wii U exclusives that publisher Ubisoft will be bringing to the console later this year, the other being Rayman Legends.
