The Death Star Mall and Food Court was a mall and food court created on 19 BBY that was located on the first Death Star. It was located primarily on levels 150 to 160 near the hypermatter annihilator reactor.
It all started long ago, when Darth Bill and Shmi Skywalker loved each other very mu— uh, too long ago. Anakin just won the pod-rac— err, crap. Anakin was transformed to Darth Vade-Damn, a bit too long. Palpatine commanded his troops to build a Death Star. While in the making, Palpy had to pee very bad. So, he commanded his troops to make sure to build a restroom in the food court. The troops asked why would there be a restroom if there is no drink stand. So, he told them to build a drink stand, but paused, then commanding them to build a food court, with a mall with it. So, that is how he get our shopping needs if our computer doesn't work, or if we are noobs that don't have one.

Machimina CEO Search Hints At MCN's Future
Noah J Nelson on Thursday, Jan. 23rd
In the world of online video few brands are more recognizable than Machinima, the multi-channel network that regularly boasts of over 2 billion video views served up each month. Their core demographic: the much-coveted 18-34 year old male.
Even so, 2013 was a rough year for Machinima, they cut roughly 11% of their core workforce. Co-founder Allen DeBevoise announced that he was stepping down as CEO last November, and the search has been on since.
Now Tubefilter is reporting that former Shine America CEO "Emiliano Calemzuk is on the very short list to become DeBevoise's replacement."
The Argentinian-born executive came to run the American division of Shine Group – the production company behind super hits like The Office, Ugly Betty, and The Biggest Loser – by way of Fox, where he had a very successful, 15-or-so-years-long career and rose as high as the position of President of Fox Television Studios.
If there was ever a signal as to which way the productions winds blow for Machinima this rumor would be it.
While Machinima has built its audience base thanks to user-generated content deals the tension between "affiliated" creators and the network have been growing for months.
Adding to this pressure is the very nature of business-as-usual with YouTube video promotions coming under closer scrutiny thanks to revelations that some content creators were paid to promote certain brands without clear disclosure.
Microsoft went so far as to throw Machinima under the bus when these practices were linked to an XboxOne campaign (via Polygon):
"As part of this campaign, Microsoft advertising dollars on Machinima were specifically for banner and pre-roll media placements," according to the Microsoft spokesperson. "The additional video content creation was provided by Machinima as a value-add program. Microsoft was not aware of the terms and requirements that Machinima has in place with its content providers." (Emphasis added.)
To be fair to Machinima: some variation of this is how much of YouTube "integrated marketing" works. Brands are connected to creators by way to the MCNs so that their products are featured in videos. This method means fewer middlemen: YouTube doesn't have a way of taking a cut. In fact, YouTube's relatively large percentage of pre-roll and banner advertising sets up an incentive for creators and MCNs to pursue these kinds of deals.
What gets left out are the disclosures. As Polygon's Brian Crecente reports the Federal Trade Commission offers up guidelines on disclosures, not red-lined laws.
Dive into the wide world of YouTube and anything from a video game "Let's Play" to a makeup review might actually be receiving financial support from the product under consideration. That fact might only pop up in the text description on the YouTube page itself, and not be mentioned in the video proper.
All perfectly legal, and ethically hazy.
Which raises the question: how long can this practice last before consumers get sick of it? If you can't trust AutoBob19318 to be objective about boozy popsicles who can you trust?
That leads us back to the pivot Machinima appears to be destined for. Calemzuk is from the world of television, both scripted and unscripted. Machinima already puts a lot of effort into partnering with major studios as a distribution network for first looks (Black Sails) and genre content (Mortal Kombat: Legacy). A figure like Calemzuk at the helm would likely lead the network farther down that path, towards a model that shied away from the issues associated with affiliate programs.
Know this: Machinima won't be the only MCN to face some existential questions in the coming months.

Chennai, Sep 19 (UNI) AIADMK supremo J Jayalalithaa today took a dig at a section of the media urging partymen not to give advertisements to newspapers trying to portray the AIADMK in a negative manner due to ''pressure'' from the ruling DMK.
Addressing the Party General Council at suburban Vaanagaram here, she named a couple of newspapers and said they were not publishing her speeches and statements in a proper manner.
''Instead, they are deliberately intrepreting my statements with a view to portray the party in bad light,'' she said and alleged the newspaper managements were blacking out her statements out of fear for their life from the ruling party.
''But for Jaya TV (promoted by her), there is no other medium to carry my statements and message to the public,'' she claimed and appealed to partymen not to issue advertisements to such newspapers.
''You hit them at their weakest point so that they can feel the pain and realise their mistake. If you stop giving advertisements, then these newspapers will not get any revenue and will feel the pinch,'' she added.
The party workers should teach these newspapers a lesson by not giving advertisements so that they could start respecting the party.
''Instead of giving advertisments in newspapers to impress me and draw my attention, the party workers should distribute pamphlets and put up posters,'' she said.

It has been a long time since you have posted about Mary Jane Ellithorpe McEuin, but I'm replying now anyway.
We're related. My maiden name is McEuin, I'll tell you all I know which might not be enough for you, but I'll try anyway.
Francis Marion was my great grandfather, and his son's name was John Henry. He was married to Bonnie (I think her last name was Shockey), and their sons were Jack and J.B.
I am almost positive that Mary Jane Ellithorpe McEuin was either my great grandmother or my great great. The reason why I say this is because I was named after her. (Mary Jane McEuin)
Somewhere down the line we are related to one of the first if not the very first professional male ice skaters, sorry I don't know his name.
My Dad was born in Texas.
I hope that helps.
Happy Thanksgiving!

My local pub, nice to go to a place where you recognise everyone as you walk in the door, the owners Blaine & Chrissy are top notch people, and so are the rest of the bar staff. No food, but theres a Pizza takeout 3 doors down, and as far as I know, they have no problem with you bringing your own food in? There are 40 beers on tap and a small choice of bottled beer, but is expanding. Keep up the good work!
regspeir (18) Havertown, Pennsylvania | June 25, 2010
I feel like we are very spoiled in SE PA - such great distribtion of stuff from all over, but especially great bars. Florida is NOT a place I expect to find anything that rivaled here but I was in for a surprise when my sister took me to Willard's on a visit to Largo. This is such a comfortable and friendly place. There was a sample or so if I wasn't sure, but the owners and staff knew their stuff. Staff this friendly, knowledgeable and giving of their time, attract what matters 2nd most to me - a great mix of people. But the MOST important factor is the beer and they had that covered too - near 40 taps that had enough variety to make any BA happy. My only regret was that they had no real kitchen or hot food but I am betting that changes. Next trip to Florida you better beleive I will be back. Hopefully this place is successful - these people deserve it.

Willard's is a great new addition to the Tampa Bay Brew scene! 40 taps of awesome craft beer. The local breweries are always represented and a wide selection of IPA's and a few select imports too. The place is great, not at all pretentious and the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly! The owners will even stop what they're doing to have a chat with you about beer or food or hockey... A must stop for anyone doing the Tampa Beer Crawl.

This is a great new place run by true beer lovers. I was greeted with friendly smiles, a fantastic beer selection, and fun and casual conversation with other patrons as well as the owners. Tampa Bay needs more places like Willard's Tap House.
tblfan04 (10) Clearwater, | January 24, 2010| Updated February 7, 2010
This is a great local pub with great service and a great selection of 40 taps with a whats up next list also wine if you are into that. has good snackie food like chips and salsa and cheese spreads and They have a fish spread that is great but nothing big and the owner really knows his beer and can match you up with what you like. A+ I will be returning for sure!

1 4 th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Industrial Management XIV Congreso de Ingeniería de Organización Donostia- San Sebastián, September 8 th -10 th 2010 Identifying relationships between key performance indicators Raúl Rodríguez Rodríguez 1, Juan José Alfaro Saiz 2, Ángel Ortiz Bas 3, María José Verdecho Sáez 4 1,2,3,4 Centro de Investigación e Ingeniería de Producción (CIGIP). Universidad Politécnica de Valencia. Camino de Vera s/n, 46022, Valencia. Abstract This work has highlighted the importance, from a decision-making point of view, of identifying KPIs relationships. Then, it has presented two main groups of techniques that could be applied: Statistical techniques and multi-criteria decision aid techniques (MCDA). The application of one technique or another will be decided regarding the level of accuracy sought when identifying KPIs relationships as well as the investment to be made. Generally speaking, the application of statistic techniques will be preferred when enough historic KPI data is available though the application of these techniques is usually more resource consuming than the use of MCDA techniques. Keywords: performance indicators; strategy, relationships. 1. Introduction Performance measurement systems (PMS) have recognizably become one of the most applied management tools worldwide. A PMS is simple in its conception but it delivers powerful results regarding the control and monitoring of an organisation s performance overtime. In this context, several approaches have been developed such as Cross and Lynch (1988), Kaplan and Norton (1992), etc. All these approaches consisted of defining some key objectives and associated key performance indicators (KPIs). KPIs represent the most operative part of a PMS, providing information about whether associated objectives are being reached or not. Whereas most of the research in this area has looked at the strategic part of the PMS, lower attention has been paid to work on the operative part, as this is mostly seen as a mere operative element of a PMS. However, in recent years there has been a growing trend affecting both practitioners and academics (Itner and Larker, 2003; Alfaro, 2003) who look at the KPI level as a source of additional meaningful information for organisations. Research on this matter conclude that finding relationships between a set of KPIs, defined within a PMS, will result in a valuable source of decision-making information, providing feedback for the strategic management. Initially, the identification of KPI relationships would allow the reduction of the number of KPIs to be monitored by an organisation. For instance, if it is found that two KPIs maintain a close relationship, as the variation of one provokes the variation of another, it then could be possible to concentrate efforts on controlling and monitoring only one of them. Further, it would allow analysts to check on the indicators integrity and to construct cause-effect diagrams that would better show the behaviour of KPIs over time. Once relationships between KPIs have been stated, there is another very important way of using this information: To translate these relationships upstream within the PMS. This idea was mentioned by (Alfaro, 2003) who stated that the development of such a system would lead to the dynamically better 151
2 management of a PMS, as such a system would establish cause-effect relationships between the different objectives derived from strategy. Therefore, an organisation could more closely control and monitor the accomplishment of their stated objectives, as some objectives could have not been reached by the interaction of other objectives. Figure 1 illustrates this idea. Figure 1. Establishing relationships between KPIs Data collected by KPIs may come under different units of measure such as monetary units (,$), time units (minutes, hours, days, etc), percentage (increment/decrement) or different frequencies (yearly, monthly, daily, etc ). Initially, this fact will make it more difficult to find relationships between KPIs. Then, the initial data will come in a matrix formed by the different KPIs in the columns, and the observed different values in the rows. Hence, there is a need to evaluate current efforts for measuring KPI relationships. Accordingly, the main purpose of this paper is to compile the main frameworks or techniques that have been used, and others that could be used for identifying relationships between KPIs defined within a PMS. 2. Identification of KPIs relationships This section presents the techniques that have or could have been applied at the performance management context for identifying relationships between KPIs at the performance measurement system context. These techniques are the following: - Statistical techniques. - Multi-criteria dedicision aid methods Statistical techniques The nature of the data collected by the different KPIs that an organisation may define made the authors first look at the different statistical techniques that have been applied within the performance management context. Then, it was found that the application of both univariate and multivariate statistical techniques would be, a priori, a suitable solution, as they describe the process of observation and analysis of variables over time (Hair, 1995). From those, the most often used techniques at the performance management context are the following: Correlation, regression analysis, analysis of variance (ANOVA), multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). 152
3 The correlation technique indicates the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables (Cohen et al., 2003). A multitude of correlation studies have been conducted at the performance management context. For instance, (Ling, 2004) captured the existing relationships between a firm s internal factors and results of performance indicators by applying a correlation study. Furthermore, the study of trade-offs applied to competitive priorities in organisations is a direct application of correlation studies. Even though some authors (Schonberger, 1986; Skinner, 1992; Hayes and Pisano, 1996) affirm that an organisation does not have competitive, but instead, complementary priorities, others (Skinner, 1992; Slack 1997; Boyer and Lewis, 2002) maintain the existence of such competitive priorities. Authors supporting the latter trend have employed correlation studies between pairs of these competitive priorities such as: Cost versus Quality (Boyer and Lewis, 2002; Schroeder et al, 1996; Filippini et al, 1995; Mapes et al, 1997); Time versus Costs (Perunovic and Christiansen, 2004); Costs versus Suppliers Relations (Wagner and Jonson, 2003); Customer Satisfaction versus Production Costs (Gupta and Maranas, 2003). Consequently, the application of correlation analysis is appropriate only when the study aims to find relationships between pairs of variables. Therefore, the current research problem will not initially be solved by applying correlation analysis unless the set of KPIs under study is made out of only two KPIs, which is difficult. Additionally, correlation analysis does not identify interrelationships between a set of KPIs. On the other hand, multiple regression analysis examines the dependence of a dependent variable on other independent variables or predictors (Fox, 1997). For instance, Gomes et al (2004) carried out a multiple regression analysis to study the importance of different information for financial decisions through the usage of 63 KPIs; Van Der Meer et al (2005), through multiple regression analysis, quantifies the relationships between effectiveness measures and level of coordination of rescue services; Koh and Koh (1999) established relationships between the performance of students and six external variables. However, when applying regression techniques, there is a factor that may come up and needs to be taken into account: Multicollinearity (Fox, 1997). Multicollinearity refers to any linear relationship amongst explanatory variables in a regression model and might lead to the socalled overfitting phenomenon, which consists of the fitting of a statistical model that has too many parameters (Tetko, 1995). A solution to multicollinearity phenomena are the so-called Partial Least Squares Regression Models (PLS) (Wold, 1975). PLS models are adequate to mitigate multicollinearity and advisable when having only a few observations in the data matrix and/or missing values (Nelson et al., 1996; Geladi and Kowalski, 1986; Carot, 2003). Nevertheless, from its own definition, to create a regression model the analyst must first state what the independent or predictor variables are as well as the dependent variables. This information is not known in advance, as this in one of the main objectives to be achieved in this research. However, it could be possible to estimate the impact of an explaining variable on a dependent one by using the called non-parametric regression techniques such as kernel regression. The main handicap of non-parametric regression is that requires a high number of observations and is computationally intensive (Draper and Smith, 1998). ANOVA is a technique used for analyzing the relationship between one or several explicative variables (independent variables or factors) and one continuous result variable (Lindman, 1974). ANOVA utilizes an orthogonal decomposition of the sum of squares, thus requiring an orthogonal design for the research. Besides, several conditions must be met: Independence, normality, homocedasticity and linearity (Hair, 1995). 153
4 Examples of ANOVA applications in this ambit are: (Garrigos-Simon et al, 2005) applied ANOVA to assess the viability of three different types of competitive strategies and their impact on a firm s performance; (Edwards et al, 2003), through the application of ANOVA, checked whether some sport KPIs made a distinction among different types of participants that have different physical capabilities; (Szymanski et al, 1995) used ANOVA to find out whether the entrance order of different types of products was associated with market share. On the other hand, MANOVA is a generalization of ANOVA when there are several result variables, and following the explanation given about ANOVA, it could be discarded as a solution to identify and quantify relationships between KPIs defined within a PMS context. Examples of MANOVA in the context of the present research are: Manacci et al (1999) applied MANOVA for determining whether six performance factors were affected by works conditions; Houghton et al (2001) determined, with MANOVA analysis, whether the quality of primary care in a hospital was influenced by different types of management; Huizingh (2002) applied MANOVA to establish whether different customization styles influenced the performance indicators definition of a website. Hence, although difficult to apply in this context, ANOVA and MANOVA should not be discarded yet as possible solutions at this point. What it is clear is that prior to their application the analyst must verify the above commented conditions. The main advantage of using statistical techniques to identify KPIs relationships is that the results achieved are not based neither on experience nor on subjective judgments of the decision-maker, as they analyse data sets directly. However, data handling storage, collection and transfer- and analysis will be surely a much more resource consuming process Multi-criteria decision aid methods The multi-criteria decision aid methods (MCDA) establish a ranking of the different competitive priorities for maximizing performance according to some given criteria (Da Silveira, 2005). The main MCDA methods are the following: Objective programming. Hierarchical techniques. Objective programming uses lineal models to provide the best solution to a problem with multiple competitive priorities. The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the most commonly applied techniques within the performance management ambit (Chen et al., 2006). Hierarchical techniques are characterized by the establishment of a hierarchy made up of different levels, each of them including several decision alternatives (Da Silveira, 2005). The main hierarchical techniques are AHP and ANP. AHP (Saaty, 1980) is a tool for making decisions that has been widely used in the performance management ambit. AHP carries out pair-wise comparisons, through correlation analysis, between competitive priorities, subjectively establishing a numeric scale for measuring performance from both a qualitative and a quantitative point of view. On the other hand, ANP (Saaty, 1996) is a technique that complements AHP by also considering the interrelationships between the factors affecting performance. 154
5 The main advantage of applying MCDA techniques for identifying KPIs relationships is that it is not necessary to deal with a large historic data set, as they rely rather on experience. However, the resulting KPIs relationships might not be as exact as by applying statistical techniques. 3. Classification of techniques This section classifies the techniques previously pointed out. To do so, different factors have been taken into account: Type of decisions: Objectivity/Subjectivity. Type of relationships: Pair-wise relationships/multi-relationships. According to these factors, it is possible to classify the different techniques above presented as it can be seen in Figure 2. Then, from a decisional point of view, the techniques have been classified into either objective (when they manipulate real data) or subjective (when they are based, in any of their steps, in applying personal experience/judgement). On the other hand, from a relationships point of view, the techniques have been classified into either pair-wise comparisons techniques (when they are able to only capture relationships between two variables) or multi-comparison techniques (when they are able to identify relationships in a data set at once). Figure 2. Classification of techniques Then, it is possible to affirm that the statistical techniques are objective (as they manipulate real data) and that the MCDA techniques are subjective in nature. On the other hand, only some statistical techniques (ANOVA/MANOVA, multiple regression) are able to identify relationships in a data set at once instead of only capturing relationships between a pair of performance indicators. 155
6 If there are enough data available from the performance indicators it is recommended to apply statistical techniques, though this can be more resource consuming than if using the MCDA. From a real life enterprise point of view, it will be always possible to apply MCDA techniques as they are based on gathering personnel s opinions and judgements regarding a specific issue. In this particular case, the person/people in charge of identifying relationships among performance indicators will ask to the enterprise s experts whether there are relationships or not among some performance indicators. Some sort of architecture such as a survey supports usually this process. The surveyed personnel will tick in a Lickert scale whether they think that there is a relationship or not; to do so, they can rank the relationship (if any) from a value of 1 (weak relationship) to a value of 9 (strong relationship). When they have rank all the relationships they think that exist, the results obtained are computed and finally transformed into a mathematical quantified relationship. Looking at the statistical techniques, it is possible to affirm that their application to this problematic would objectively set out the relationships among performance indicators. However, there is a noticeable problem when using statistical techniques in this performance management context: there may not be enough data to obtain meaningful results. This is due to the fact that a performance measurement system is dynamic in nature and it is continuously being revised and changed. Then, it is easy to think of the strategic objectives that were set for a specific period of time (usually one year) to be replaced by new ones. Such a strategic objectives replacement, as a consequence of the rethinking/strategic enterprise repositioning, will also bring new performance indicators. Then, for a period of time it is logical to find lots of performance indicators and some of them with only one annual observation. Then, for an initial performance indicators data matrix, it is not unusual to find matrices with lots of columns (performance indicators) and relatively few observations. There will be lots of gaps within the matrices and this will enormously difficult the analysis process. Hence, analysts have to decide whether they apply either the subjective MCDA techniques or the objectives statistical ones. The decision will have to be made following mainly two main criteria: The available resources and the historic performance measures data available to carry out the analysis. 4. Conclusions This work has highlighted the importance, from a decision-making point of view, of identifying KPIs relationships. Then, it has presented two main groups of techniques that could be applied: Statistical techniques and multi-criteria decision aid techniques (MCDA). The application of one technique or another will be decided regarding the level of accuracy sought when identifying KPIs relationships as well as the investment to be made. Generally speaking, the application of statistic techniques will be preferred when enough historic KPI data is available though the application of these techniques is usually more resource consuming than the use of MCDA techniques.
