Student Affairs supports the educational mission of the University by providing programs, services, and co-curricular experiences that contribute to student development and the FMU intellectual community. Student Affairs seeks to develop the whole student by initiating platforms for self-expression and personal growth thereby enhancing student potential for success through leadership opportunities, citizenship education, networking, and community development.
The Division of Student Affairs is located in the Smith University Center, Suite 205 and can be reached at 843-661-1182.
The following documents show the commitment of Student Affairs to the overall experience of Francis Marion students. Maintaining a just and safe learning environment for our students is one of the primary objectives of Student Affairs.
Upon becoming a member of the Francis Marion University community, students are expected to behave with honor and integrity in a manner that reflects the values of the institution. Students must interact in a civil manner, both in and out of the classroom, treating all persons and property with respect. Upon enrollment at FMU, students pledge not to lie, cheat, or steal. They also pledge not to violate the FMU Honor Code or any civil/criminal laws. Inasmuch as honor and integrity serve to define one’s character, the University community expects that students will not tolerate the aforementioned behaviors in others and will exhibit reasonable judgment in reporting students who violate the FMU Honor Code.
The FMU Honor Code consists of two sections: academic and student conduct. Each section contains the expectations, policies, and procedures that apply to all Francis Marion University students. These sections are designed to support the University community from disruption and harm, and to maintain appropriate standards of individual and group behavior. The sections should be read broadly and are not intended to define misconduct in exhaustive terms.
The University reserves the right to take all necessary and appropriate steps to protect the safety and well being of the campus community. Any act committed by a student, whether on or off campus, which is determined by the University to be a threat to the safety or well being of the community or that is disruptive to the primary purposes of the University may result in the University taking action in accordance with community standards. Student, for the purpose of this policy, is defined as a person enrolled for one or more hours of academic credit, or in noncredit course or courses offered in the name of the University; or a person admitted or seeking admission to the University if action is related to University admission, function, or event. Violations by non-students may result in restricted access to campus or University events. Non-students are expected to abide by these policies as well. It is the responsibility of the student host of the non-student to make his or her guest aware of these behavioral expectations.
The classroom is an integral component of the educational community, and FMU strives to provide an environment appropriate to the University setting. Students are expected to interact in a civil manner, treating all persons with respect, and to adhere to behavioral standards contained in the respective course syllabi. Disruption of classroom instruction by students is not tolerated and will result in removal of the disruptive student or students from class. Disruptive or uncivil behavior in the classroom may result in appropriate disciplinary action, which could include suspension, expulsion, or other University sanctions.
A primary responsibility of an instructor is to certify that a specific academic assignment has been mastered sufficiently to merit college credit. An inseparable part of this responsibility is to take all possible precautions to ensure that the credit has not been attained by fraud. The instructor should rigorously enforce honesty concerning all academic work submitted by his/her students for evaluation. While it is difficult to define precisely and inclusively all aspects of academic dishonesty, the following statements should serve as a guide.
Cheating includes, but is not limited to, wrongfully giving, taking or presenting any information or material by a student with the intent of aiding him/herself or any other person on any academic work that is considered in any way in the determination of the final grade. Plagiarism involves the use of the ideas or writings of another without acknowledgment of that use. A more detailed description is located in the Student Handbook.
If a faculty member believes a student has committed an act of cheating or plagiarism, he or she should notify the student of the allegation and give the student an opportunity to respond. The faculty member’s department chair or school dean may be present at any meeting between the faculty member and the student. Whenever possible, this process should occur prior to the submission of final grades. When notification occurs after the submission of grades, the instructor will provide the student a post factum opportunity to rebut the charge. If, in the judgment of the instructor, the student is able to show that the charge is unsubstantiated, the instructor will withdraw the allegation and remove the academic penalty. If the faculty member determines that a violation has in fact occurred, he or she should then notify the Provost’s Office of the allegation in writing, with copies sent to the faculty member’s dean or department chairperson. The Provost or designee will serve as an adviser to the faculty member to assure that all appropriate due process is provided to the student and that proper procedures are followed. See the Student Handbook for details regarding the procedures.
Violations of the academic conduct policy strike at the very heart of the University and the teaching and learning process. It is the responsibility of the instructor to determine the appropriate academic penalty for an act of cheating or plagiarism. Normally these penalties range from failure on the assignment to failure of the course. It is responsibility of the Provost or his/her designee to apply general university sanctions for severe or repeat offenses. The first violation of the academic integrity policy typically carries no general sanction beyond the academic penalty. A second violation will result in the academic penalty in addition to a general sanction of suspension from the University for a term of no less than one fall or spring semester. A third offense will result in the academic penalty and a general sanction of expulsion from the University.
Campus Police officers, Residence Life and Housing staff, and other University officials are charged with the maintenance of appropriate student behavior. As a result, occasions may arise when these persons must confront students who they believe are violating University or residence hall standards of conduct. In such cases, these officials will make contact with the student whenever possible and inform him/her that they may be charged with a violation of the code.
Campus Police officers will normally inform the student who they believe has allegedly committed the violation and refer the student to the Dean of Students Office. The referral will normally include a prepared incident report.
Housing staff may inform the student verbally that he/she is being referred for an alleged violation of standards. These staff members will subsequently prepare a report of the incident leading to the allegation. A copy of this report will be forwarded to the offices of Housing and the Dean of Students. Depending upon the seriousness of the alleged violation, the student will be informed by one the above named offices to report to that office within a certain period of time for adjudication of the alleged violation. The student will be required to meet with the University Conduct Officer appointed by the Dean of Students.
Other community members such as faculty, administrators, or fellow students may also from time-to-time report alleged violations to the conduct officials of the University. In these cases, the alleged violator will receive a letter from the University Conduct Officer appointed by the Dean of Students.
In compliance with the Tucker Hipps Transparency Act below is a list of all violations of Francis Marion’s Honor Code by fraternities and sororities registered as student organizations at the University. The act requires a report of actual findings of violations for offenses after December 31, 2012 involving: alcohol, drugs, sexual assault, physical assault, and hazing. The report must also contain: the name of the organization, the date on which the event occurred or dates on which the citation was issued, the date the investigation was initiated, general incident description, charges, findings, sanctions, and date on which the matter was resolved.
The initial investigation into all incidents listed below was to determine if a violation of the hazing policy had occurred. However, upon further investigation it was determined that in some cases there were no violations of the hazing policy but other policy violations were evident. Finally, in some cases an organization may not have been charged with any violations of University policy but held responsible for the creation of discord within the campus climate.
Additional information related to findings, sanctions, and organizational sanction completion may be available through the Student Affairs office, to the extent allowable under the the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) 20 U.S.C. 1232g. Further inquiries should be directed to the Student Affairs Office, which will provide non-privileged information pursuant to the terms of the South Carolina Freedom of Information Act.
The University deems it essential that members of the campus community be provided an adequate opportunity to bring concerns, complaints, suggestions and/or referrals to the attention of the administration with the assurance they will be treated promptly, professionally, fairly, and without fear of reprisal. If anyone believes he or she has been mistreated by any member of the campus community, the procedures below should be followed. These procedures are intended to simplify the proper route in which to follow to report any perceived mistreatment by a University employee or student and is not intended to replace any existing policy or process for matters that may be grieved (i.e. sexual harassment, grade appeals, etc.).
Concerns about faculty on academic or other matters should be reported to the department chair or dean who supervises the professor or instructor. Faculty members should follow the procedures outlined in the Faculty Handbook.
Concerns about any form of perceived mistreatment by a university employee should be reported to the employee’s supervisor or the office of the Vice President of the division to which the employee belongs. Students who are unsure where to search can contact the Dean of Students Office.
Admissions, registration, advising, or financial assistance issues should be reported to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management or the Provost’s Office.
Concerns about billing, student accounts, or other administrative issues such as Campus Police, Dining Services, Bookstore, and Housing should be reported to the office of the Vice President for Business Affairs.
The SC Commission on Higher Education responds to formal complaints from students against public, independent non-profit and proprietary institutions of higher education in South Carolina.
The Student Ombudsman Office was created to address student non-academic complaints and concerns on campus. The Student Ombudsman helps students maneuver through campus procedures, policies, and regulations that may need clarification. In addition, the Student Ombudsman serves as an objective listener to student concerns and fosters student success.
Students should be aware that once a concern is reported, the complainant may be directed to take further steps or action to have the matter addressed. When reporting to the Student Ombudsman Office, the student will be able to determine the appropriate steps to address his or her concerns.
The Student Ombudsman is Katherine Barnette. The Student Ombudsman Office is located in the Stokes Administration Building, Suite 111. You may also reach Ms. Barnette at ombudsman@fmarion.edu.
Faculty and staff may use this form to relay information regarding incidents to the Student Affairs Office.

Keep eatables that are keen snack combinations, such as almond margarine and fruits, or low-fat curds and celery, near to one another. This helps you to remember the great snack alternatives you have and makes it truly quick to amass them.
Put herbals like parsley and cilantro stems-down in a mug of fresh and natural water and spread with a plastic sack. The water keeps them crisp longer, simply transform it each few days. Seeing the herbals daily will make you need to cook with them something worth being thankful for, as they include yummiest yet scarcely any calories or sodium.
On the off chance that you love avocados, say, yet would prefer not to try too hard, store serving-size compartments of guacamole on a center rack in your kitchen. Guacamole is brimming with solid fat and extraordinary in taco greens or for dipping vegetables. You can get suitable quantity of cheddar/cheese and some chocolate as well.
Put less solid dinners, such as cheese and macaroni, in dark compartments. At that point conceal them behind your healthy eatables so they’re not as top-of-brain.
When you have a compartment of precooked grains, in the same way as quinoa or grain, try to put a half cup of measuring cup inside. Grains can be hard to measure with a naked eye, so utilizing an apportioning mug to scoop a parcel keeps you from serving more than you need for your better health.
Putting away shook veggies, in the same way as artichoke hearts, pickled beets and cooked red peppers, on a rack in the refrigerator is perfect when your week is insane occupied. They’re flawless augmentations to greens and soups and don’t require any preparation time.
All vegetable salsas are loaded with flavor and supplements, proteins however contain not very many calories, and you can put more than simply tacos with them for instance, turkey burgers or potatoes.
Grainy Dijon mustard is low-calorie and includes an exquisite, rural flavor. Use it in mixed greens dressings and marinades and set up of some—or the greater part of the mayo called for in a formula for example, for fish greens.
Sliced it with seltzer water to slice calories, the bubble keeps it from tasting dull. Right when you return home from the business sector, fill a pitcher less than half of the path with juice and two-thirds of the route with seltzer.
It’s decent to have sweetened jams flavored with fruit, which are generally much lower in sugar. They’re delectable with nutty spread on brown toasted bread, on oats or showered on low-fat dessert for sweetness.

It’s that time of the year again where the warm, summer days are waning and brisk, autumn mornings are prevalent. With the changing of the seasons, common colds are common place so it is important to try to prevent them as much as possible to perform and be the best possible version of yourself. To sum up what it takes to have a high functioning immune system, proper adjustments, eat healthy foods (avoid food sensitivities), and supplementation.
Before we get into how adjustments, food, and each supplement can help your immune system, we should first get a basic understanding of the immune system. There are 3 lines of defenses in the human body, which the goal of all of it is to prevent bacteria, viruses, and parasites (pathogens) out of blood to prevent damage to human body (pathogenesis). The first line is barriers to keep pathogens out, which consists of skin (oily and acidic to prevent pathogen adherence), mucous membranes (digestive tract), white blood cells (neutrophils), as well as stomach acid (extremely low pH).
The second line of defense is the inflammatory response, which the goal of that is to stop the spread of infection if the pathogen was to get past the first line of defense. The general mechanism of the inflammatory response is the release of histamines, which cause increased blood to an area (vasodilation) to bring blood into an area, which means more macrophages to eat bacteria and interferons to chemically block virus replication. Signs and symptoms of the inflammatory response are redness, swelling, coughing, sneezing, redness, and runny nose. Finally, the third line of defense is specific cells that specifically attack the most pathogenic microorganisms to remove them from the human body using T and B cells. The B cells are responsible for creating antibodies and tagging the pathogen, while the T cells, which natural killer cells are a subset, are responsible for dissolving the pathogens.
As a practitioner/clinic that focuses on prevention, I would make the argument that optimizing the first line of defense is the most important factor when it comes pathogen related illness prevention. The way to optimize the first line of defense is through adjustments, eat healthy foods (avoid food sensitivities), and supplementation as stated earlier. The way proper chiropractic adjustments can help is by stimulating the Vagus nerve as well as re-establishing bodily communication between areas of the body that weren’t able to communicate properly. The Vagus nerve stimulation is important in that it controls most of the digestive tract (up until the distal 1/3 of the colon- from there it is the sacral plexus that is responsible), which makes up 80% of the immune system (depends on the source you look at, but the human digestive system definitely makes up the majority of the immune system).
There are many reasons why the digestive tract makes up 80% of your immune system, but a very important reason is that the digestive tract held together tightly, and doesn’t have any destruction to tight junction proteins (zonulin and occludin), which hold intestinal epithelial cells together. If there is destruction to those tight junction proteins, there’s a “leaky gut” situation that could happen where unwanted molecules (like lipopolysaccharides from Gram negative bacteria) given off by pathogens squeeze through those tight junctions and ends up going into the blood stream.
As a side note, those same proteins, zonulin and occuldin, are also responsible for the keeping the blood brain barrier cells together- so if an individual has leaky gut, they probably have a “leaky brain” situation going on, which a common symptom is brain fog. Another very important role of the digestive tract is that it (as well as other mucous membranes) continuously secretes immunoglobulins (secretory IgA) that protect the digestive tract from toxins and pathogens by entrapping them in mucous and then removed from the body via bowel movements.
Since secretory IgA and tight junction proteins are made up of amino acids, it is important for protein metabolism to be optimum. When the body isn’t functioning optimally (Vagus nerve impairment, toxins, stress, food sensitivities, etc.) one of the first molecules in the human body that is affected is stomach acid, which is supposed to dissolve any bacteria on food that’s consumed. A state of decreased stomach acid (hypochlorhydria) or absent stomach (achlorhydria) can result in improper amino acid absorption, leading to decreased immunoglobulin and enzyme production.
Another important concept with decreased or absent stomach acid is peristalsis, which is the smooth muscle contractions of the digestive tract that moves and mixes the food for digestion. Low/absent stomach acid means that when food is broken down in the stomach into chyme (liquid-like mixture of food consumed), the pH of that chyme is altered. For the digestive tract to have the strongest peristaltic contraction, the chyme must be at a low (acidic) pH.
When the pH is higher (more alkaline), the peristaltic contractions are decreased, meaning that leads to decreased food motility (constipation) and poor nutrient absorption. Poor nutrient absorption includes micronutrients not being absorbed to make cofactors for proper enzyme function as well as macronutrients not being absorbed, like fat that would be used to make skin oily to prevent pathogens from infecting the skin. Bringing this whole concept back to diet, eating the correct foods (and avoiding food sensitivities) sets the body up to deal with any sort stressors, and in this case pathogens that can cause illness.
With that basic understanding (there’s A LOT more to it than that), we can talk about particular strategies that will help each part of the immune system. Keep in mind everyone has their own unique physiology, and should consult with their functional medicine/nutrition practitioner before starting a regiment. To start off, probably the most important thing a person can do is removing any food sensitives from their diet, and the most common I see in my practice is wheat, dairy, and sugar.
Removing food sensitivities from the diet is like removing something that itches the skin, in that it will allow the body to heal since that itch isn’t irritating the tissue in the digestive tract. Not mention that the cells lining the sinuses and digestive tracts are embryological homologues, meaning they are derived from the same embryological tissue, and an irritant to one tissue is an irritant to the other which will then elicit a response from the body to deal with it. So if there is a food sensitivity to wheat in the digestive tract, that will cause a runny nose or increased mucous production in the sinuses, since that is how the digestive tract and sinuses deal with irritants.
Items to add include consuming apple cider vinegar (ACV) or supplementing betaine HCL, which will help increase stomach acid that will dissolve bacteria on food, breakdown protein for better absorption, and peristaltic contractions that improve gastrointestinal motility and nutrient absorption. Consuming or supplementing L-glutamine, vitamin A and D, and zinc (zinc carnosine) will help with tight junction formation. Another interesting thing with zinc is that it activates the CD4+ pathway, allowing your T helper cells to develop faster, which is a part of your third line of defense. Vitamin A and D are also involved with the third line of defense by being responsible for TH1/TH2 modulation by upregulating TH3 cells (along with glutathione and butyrate).
Vitamin C also helps with T cell maturation by the CD8 pathway. Taking pancreatic enzymes can also help breakdown food and increase nutrient absorption. Probiotics can also be taken to ensure that your gut has healthy bacteria that will benefit you (making short chain fatty acids for colonocytes) rather than unhealthy bacteria that will harm you (making lipopolysaccharides [LPS] that can lead to depression).
When it comes to second line of defense, the inflammatory cascade is at the heart of it. Inflammation is necessary to get rid of pathogens as well as to heal tissue, however, too much inflammation can be detrimental (must be just right). The typical US citizen has a pro-inflammatory diet and isn’t consuming enough omega 3 fish oil (anti-inflammatory), which predisposes them to a hyperinflammatory response, which does more harm than good. An anti-inflammatory diet and fish oil supplementation would be recommended, as well as selective pro-resolving modulators (SPMs) that resolve inflammation.

DUDLEY, Mass. – Freshman Donny Whittle (Ellington, Conn.) struck in the 88th minute Monday afternoon to break a scoreless tie and deliver his second consecutive game-winning tally, and fifth of the season, as host Nichols College defeated Plymouth State University, 1-0, in a non-conference men's soccer match.
Plymouth State (5-8) had the best opportunity of the first half in the 20th minute as freshman Jens Bonnevier (Finspang, Sweden) looked to bury a header. Nichols (8-5) outshot the visitors 12-5 in the scoreless first half while the Panthers took the only corner kick of the contest.
The Bison had a pair of chances beginning in the 74th minute as Nichols senior Scott Coderre (Thompson, Conn.) took a shot that sailed just above the crossbar. Just over a minute later sophomore Michael Perry (Plainville, Mass.) sent a nifty heel pass to junior Fred Willard (Webster, Mass.) for a shot that went wide.
Nichols netminder Francesco Chiaravalloti (Torrington, Conn.) tipped a shot by senior Parker Spear (Sodus Point, N.Y.) in the 85th minute to preserve the shutout. Three minutes later Whittle knocked home a deflection off a defender for his team-leading ninth goal of the season.
Chiaravalloti picked up his first career victory and solo shutout in a five save effort. Freshman Sam Whipple (Kingston, N.H.) stopped five shots in his second decision of the year.
Nichols ventures to Anna Maria Thursday for a non-conference match at 4:00 p.m. Plymouth State travels to Western Connecticut on Sunday for a Little East Conference matchup at 12 noon.

This is not exactly news, but bears repeating. Liberal Washington State, of which Seattle is the largest city, continues to have the country’s most regressive–and therefore illiberal–tax system. That means the burden on the poor from state and local taxes is a lot higher than on, say, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Paul Allen, Ken Fisher and the six others on the Forbes 400 list who call the Evergreen State their (tax) home.
Overall, the bottom 20% of Washington State’s nonelderly households, who earn less than $21,000 a year, will pay 16.8% of their income in state and local taxes this year, compared to the 2.4% of income the top 1% earning more than $507,000, will pay, according to the report from the left leaning Institute On Taxation & Economic Policy.
In a post here last year I noted Washington State’s No. 1 ranking in this regard, based on earlier studies before I became New To Seattle. The heavy tax burden on the poor is largely due to the absence of a state income tax coupled with the imposition of relatively high sales taxes. In Seattle, the sales tax rate of 9.5%, already the nation’s highest among big cities, is scheduled to rise to 9.6%.
Washington State also has a hidden system of business and occupancy taxes that acts as a sales tax add-on, in that it doesn’t appear on a customer’s receipt even though it is based on a percent of the bill.
Here’s the reason sales taxes fall more heavily upon the poor. They have to spend nearly all their income to buy the necessities of life–incurring sales taxes–while the rich can bank most of their income. In the special case of money manager Fisher, he lives along the Columbia River in the high-tax-California expatriate community of Camas, where he easily can cross into Oregon and shop sales-tax-free. So he gets the best of both tax worlds.
Five years ago, Washington State residents overwhelmingly voted down a proposal that would put an income tax on the state’s richest 1%. The state’s own bills, though, have to be paid somehow. So Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat, just proposed a capital gains tax on the rich. Given the hypocrisy between Washington State’s reliably liberal voting record on political candidates and its oppressive-to-the-poor tax system, it’s far from clear this will go anywhere.
Washington State vividly illustrates that old saying: Watch what they do, not what they say.

Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way.
Oh, Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be.
Oh, Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me?
Monday morning, it was all I hoped it would be.
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Yes, even your Bannerman can see the light on the hill when it’s bright enough. Kim Beazley isn’t the leader Labor needs against Howard. He’s had his time. He’s had two solid jousts and as I say, come close but unless you’re unpacking your furniture into The Lodge one week after polling day, close just doesn’t cut it. Especially when Australia seriously needs to move away from a government and a government-inspired culture which has blithely ignored the electorate and run roughshod over public opinion in a bid to cement it’s own ideology onto Australian society.
The Bannerman is a Rudd fan, no two ways about it. Always favoured the intellectual Laborite, has the Bannerman. Especially one who has worked as a diplomat and understands the foibles of foreign policy in our region. Kevin Rudd has that experience. He has also worked at State level and has a solid understanding of the necessary liasons between state and federal spheres. As a charismatic personality, Kevin Rudd is about as exciting as rice pudding, but with Julia Gillard as deputy and a cleaned out, refreshed front bench – a necessity and inevitable eventuality regardless of who wins on Monday – he stands as much chance as anyone and in my mind, a much better chance of defeating Howard than Beazley will ever have. Howard knows Beazley. They are creatures of the same time and they’ve grown old politically together. One in Opposition as leader, the other as Prime Minister. There is no better place than on top, especially if you’re on the winning side every time.
As with Latham, Howard will have to re-learn Kevin Rudd as a leader and not just as a member of Labor’s front bench. Labor cannot do any worse right now, unless they buckle in fear and stick with Beazley. I don’t believe that will happen and judging by what the pundits are saying tonight, the numbers are falling on Kevin Rudd’s side. The ability to speak fluent Mandarin may not be a pre-requisite for political leadership in Australian politics, but I believe Rudd’s urban, non-inflammatory style gives Labor it’s best chance since 1996 of retaking the reins of power and returning Australia to the rational, even-handed, egalitarian state it once was.
So, come on, Monday Monday. Be good to Australia and make 2007 all that Australia could want it to be by giving Labor the best chance it’s had in the last six years. Finger’s crossed, eh?

“The customer is the focus of everything we do. It’s all about the customer,” Grant Sommer, the dealership’s sales and marketing manager, says when asked to describe Sommer’s brand.
That’s not uncommon to hear. Most—if not all—businesses set out with the expectation that they’ll put customers first. The difference? Sommer’s follows through and the results speak for themselves.
For loyalty, Sommer’s has outscored its district, zone and region since 2016 for Subaru. These numbers show the dedication its customers have to the dealership, in particular, not just the Subaru brand.
“It’s important to brand your dealership, not just [the OEM],” Sommer says.
Another example is the customers that drive from out of town to visit the dealership. In fact, one customer traveled 156 miles to get her vehicle serviced at Sommer’s because of the way Sommer’s treats her.
By taking into account its customers’ feelings, Sommer’s has been able to get its customers to spread positive word of mouth and create loyal customers for life. This is how Sommer’s has effectively been able to “strike a balance” in its brand.
Sommer’s Automotive has been around for 70 years, but the tagline “Love the Difference” only came to be a few years ago. The reason for the change was because the dealership wanted to create a tagline that made customers question what made it different from the dealership down the road, Sommer explains.
The word “love” is used in Subaru marketing, and it worked well with GM (another brand of Sommer's), so Sommer’s Automotive thought the tagline would be a perfect way to mesh the two and represent what it wanted to feel like as a dealership, which is lighthearted and friendly—two words that are used to describe all of Sommer’s Automotive marketing campaigns.
The brand has evolved so people no longer talk about just the car brand—they talk about Sommer’s, Sommer says.
Customers bring in all of their vehicles to get serviced, not just the Subaru or GM vehicles that were purchased there.
“That, to me, is a brand,” Sommer says.
Another factor that needs to be considered is the fact that all dealerships offer the same type of service and are competing with one another.
“Everyone has a good offer—how are you different in the eyes of the consumer?” Sommer says.
This is the greeting that every customer that enters Sommer’s Automotive in Mequon, Wis., should expect to hear. Simple, but effective, this line sets the customer up for the experience that they are about to have.
The greeters are all part-time employees and the first person the customers see when they enter the dealership. Instead of having to wait for a service advisor to finish up or get to them, customers are shown that they are a priority right away and the check-in process starts. After they are greeted, the service is confirmed and the process begins. What seems simple can make all the difference to a customer.
It all goes back to the “feeling” that the customer gets when they walk in. Part of Sommer’s’ success could be because of the tight-knit, family culture on which it has built its success. Sommer’s own grandfather and his grandfather’s brother started the business, and following in their footsteps, his father and uncle (Wally and Don, respectively) now own the business. Rather than locking themselves away in a corporate suite, the Sommers make themselves available to customers and employees alike—greeting the staff each morning and personally addressing customer issues that may arise throughout the day.
Another reason that Sommer’s has been able to create an emotional connection with its customers is the people that work at Sommer’s Automotive.
“We really want to make sure we’re hiring the right people,” Sommer says.
By focusing on personality traits when hiring, Sommer says they’re able to train the rest. As long as they have a positive attitude and a work ethic, the rest can be learned. Sommer adds that some of the best employees they have came from outside the industry. Once someone is hired, they are paired with someone at Sommer’s that exemplifies the mentality. That has been the key to success for creating that customer-friendly atmosphere, Sommer says.
“If you start out right, it sets the tone for the experience,” Sommer says.
The brand goes back to the culture, he says.
The brand at Sommer’s is a mentality. It’s not something that is plastered all around the walls or repeated in a daily meeting; it’s just the way things are, explains Sommer.

At a time when lots of my Mentor colleagues are at SAP’s internal DKOM events, I had the opportunity to attend SAP’s semi-public UK Technology Forum in St Albans on March 21st and spent day 1 there, mainly focussing on information around User Interfaces and Netweaver Gateway. As a regular TechEd visitor, events such as this are not providing you with a raft of new items around SAP products, but instead give you with a gut feel for the local customer and developer community.
User Interface and User Experience: demos and presentations were around HTML5 – either driven by Sybase Unwired Platform or developed straight using HTML5 and CSS3. For example, Keytree demoed an interesting live retail app for iPad that uses HTML5, hooked up to a SAP retail backend via homebuilt RESTful services. CompriseIT demoed a new SAP tool to generate native iOS consumption UIs for Netweaver Gateway services.
Gateway: I liked that most presentations clarified that not just SUP can be used for consumption, which was in contrast to information available during TechEd 2011 in Madrid, where participants often thought SUP is the only way to consume Gateway. I attended two interesting sessions by SAP labs’ very own Yaad Oren, including a Kinect-enabled Gateway solution and a Siri-based prototype called SiPi (using Open Ears). In the latter, a video showed a SAP CRM lead being created using iPhone voice recognition and later an image was added to the CRM business partner by searching the person on Facebook, based on facial details. This is a very likely future use-case, yet it still makes me slightly shudder! (Disclaimer: the app is only a prototype!). As far as a wider developer engagement for Gateway is concerned, it seems that a reliance on the SAP partnering framework is the chosen path for now. Whether this will hamper the “billion users” ambitions SAP has remains to be seen.

During the past few months, we have been fortunate to travel with our family to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Orlando, and San Diego via air (some of these were even weekend trips). This has been a great learning experience for our little one and it has been a great writing experience for me as well!
As we flew to Las Vegas, I had a great brainstorming moment and I thought of ALL of the things that I wished that the airline would provide for parents who fly with their children and here's the list!
Why not? These are available in hotels and restaurants across the United States. These two items keep children occupied when waiting for their food, why not a flight? Heck, I would even be willing to purchase these along with the snacks available on the plane.
2 - Pulldown Changing Tables in the Airplane Restroom.
Yes, these are amazing helpers for mothers with infants, father with toddlers, and grandmothers traveling with them. These changing tables (and accompanying liners) enable parents to change their little one without sitting on the toilets with a small child positioned across their lap. Safer, right?
My little one loves her (actually my) Beats headphones, but they always fall forward or backward when she is viewing a movie or playing a game. It would be great to purchase toddler-sized, travel necessities for small ones who need to "tune out" the activities around them while relaxing on a plane (or a train or hotel.
These were only $7.95 on Amazon! Great deal!
I always purchase Good Bag for Kids packs before traveling with my preschooler. The packs feature a great, healthy snacks and sometimes bouncy toys for preschoolers on the go. A great option for families who need gluten and allergen-free items. We are always concerned about foods with nuts.Sometimes they have coupons for products featured in the packs. It would be great to have preschooler-friendly items for purchase when traveling on an airplane.
It does not seem that this would be too much to ask for when traveling on a plane. When you receive your coke, water, or tea (a must for me), it would be a great to receive a wipe with your drink. The drinks usually arrive when the seat belt sign removed from the display.
These are especially handy when the toddler or preschooler first becomes restless on the flight. We have usually have coloring books and crayons in our backpack, but it would be great to place these items on a clean tray.
tight container, sometimes the wipes you have in your carry-on bag are essential for keeping your neighbors happy when spills occur.
What would be present on your "wish list" when traveling via air with your family?

I've been getting a lot of mail from Randi Weingarten lately. Much of it started with the presidential campaign, when Randi urged me to vote for Hillary. She even spelled my name in all caps, as in Dear MR. A. TALK, to show me how special I am to her. Soon after she asked me to support Barack Obama. Today, I received another highly personalized message from Randi, urging me to fax my representatives to show my support for the stimulus package.
I certainly will do so. After all, the stimulus package will be a boon to education and teachers, containing as it does...wait, I have a copy here somewhere...I know it helps teachers somehow. I beg your indulgence as I peruse the document...let's see...it helps bankers, and retailers, and Wall Street brokers, and.... Oops, my bad. It doesn't help teachers at all.

I keep waiting for that letter from Randi that will urge me to walk a picket line on behalf of ATRs, fax the mayor demanding the abolition of rubber rooms, or informing me that the UFT intends to sue the state and city for utterly failing to implement the CFE funds to reduce class size.
Last time I checked, the UFT was taking more than a thousand dollars a year from me for union dues. That works out to more than 80 million annually in the UFT's coffers. Excuse me for asking, but at what point will some--ANY--of that money be put towards supporting the members instead of Arne Duncan? Will a dime be spent toward opposing the mayoral control of schools that has been such a disaster for teachers, parents, and students alike?
Has our union totally lost its purpose? It is supposed to work for us. Call me harsh if you like, but I don't want even one more letter from Randi asking me to help the victims of Katrina until I get a letter telling me how the UFT is going to help the teachers who are victims of an out of control educational oligarchy.
I think you need to add by improving the teaching environment in the classroom and file PERB actions against abusive & vindictive administrators.
Our Union, Mr. Talk, now has only one, $ingle purpo$e.
Hey, I thought she was only writing to me! Love this post! It is so right on!

Welcome to this web-site, which is concerned with my interests in the mountains. Please choose from any of the menu links on the left.
Most of the pages on this site provide reports on mountain trips that I have completed in the last few years. There is also a detailed review of a GPS.
My mountain excursions these days are mainly to areas north of the Arctic Circle, particularly in Norway. I would be very interested to hear from others who are interested in these northern places.

The declaration of war was greeted so enthusiastically in NZ that many anti-militarist groups lowered their profile. This included the National Peace Council, whom in 1914 suspended all public work, saying “the war fever is too acute to allow of any meetings being held” (Hutching, M., 2007, see full reference below).
Most NZ women supported the war effort, but some were bold enough to agitate for international arbitration and an end to war. The Canterbury Women’s Institute, the Women’s International League and The Housewives Union formed part of the nucleus of the anti-war movement in NZ.
“These people are mine. My voice is their voice…I will not agree to my children going to shed blood. Though your words be strong, you will not move me to help you. The young men who have been balloted will not go…You can fight your own fight until the end " (11 July 1918).
Few Māori volunteered to fight in districts where land had been confiscated during the NZ Wars. The Parliament of the Kingitanga decided none of their iwi should serve overseas. However, in 1918 their men were subjected to the ballot and arrested if they failed to answer it. Six Tainui men were court-martialled and sentenced to two years hard labour – even though, the war ended before any Māori conscripts could be sent overseas.
A branch of The Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) was formed in NZ with the aim of ending the war through negotiated settlement. The league also sought to solve future international disputes by arbitration and conciliation. You can find out more about the league through the serials holdings at the Central City Library.
… The display of essentially feminine qualities made the whole proceedings very entertaining … Three ladies were named as speakers, but the whole thirty got in their verbal shots at various times" (Lyttelton Times,12 June 1916).
WILPF also strongly protested against sending conscientious objectors to the front in 1917: “it [is] incredible [that]…the liberty of conscience, so dearly bought in other times by our forefathers, should be deliberately set aside”.
“…the definition of the “New Zealand conscientious objectors” as “the real heroes of the war.” This gem of maudlin and mawkish sentiment fell from a lady named Mrs. Beck, who is president of the Wellington Housewives’ Union, an organisation which is a sort of feminine complement of the male “Red” Federation” (Free Lance, 28 September 1917).
WILPF and other women’s groups sponsored Adela Pankhurst, daughter of British suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst, on a speaking tour of NZ. She talked of women’s involvement in peace, and also internationalism. She attracted overflow audiences to her meetings around the country, some of which were women-only – yet most newspapers ignored her. She said that NZ’s Military Service Bill took away a greater degree of liberty from Britishers than any bill in a thousand years, and was also intended for future wars.
The Christchurch Press called Pankhurst’s lecture on women and war: “a torrent of syndicalist invective against the holders and manipulators of the world’s capital”.
In 1918 the WILPF and the Auckland Women’s Political League amalgamated as the Women’s International and Political League to promote "true internationalism, anti-militarism and the interests of working-class women".

floating-point arithmetic in real hardware. Willi investigated the runtime cost and the gain on correctness by applying EGC on top of existing, mature geometric codes. He found that these codes perform correctly with floating-point arithmetic, while EGC would cause unreasonable slowdowns.
Afterwards, he worked in two interdisciplinary FP7 projects at TU Munich as a project assistant. The goal of these projects was to integrate various data sources in the life science domain.
In 2013, he joined the Database Research Group at the University of Salzburg, which is headed by Nikolaus Augsten. His work focuses on similarity joins where he is developing techniques to address scability and performance bottlenecks. Among other applications, similarity joins are used in geocoding to deal with syntactical differences in the attributes whose values should match.
Willi is particularly interested in applications of multi-dimensional similarity joins where the domain of the attributes are strings, trees, space, and time. He is also a passionate programmer and likes to tune existing code to make it faster and scalable.

After the defeat of the immortal villain Vandal Savage and the corrupt Time Masters who colluded with him, a new threat emerges. Dr. Nate Heywood (Nick Zano), an unconventional and charming historian, is thrust into the action upon making a shocking discovery – the Legends are scattered throughout time.
Nate must find a way to rescue season one’s beloved team of heroes and rogues. Once reunited, the Legends continue their new mission to protect the timeline from temporal aberrations – unusual changes to history that spawn potentially catastrophic consequences.
The series will also feature Matthew MacCaull in the role of Commander Steel, Sarah Grey as Stargirl, Maisie Richardson-Sellers as Vixen Prime, Lance Henriksen as Obsidian and the not-yet-cast character of Dr. Mid-Nite as the Justice Society of America. In addition, the “big bad” for the series will be the show’s own version of the Legion of Doom, featuring Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman), Damien Darhk (Neal McDonough), the Reverse-Flash (Matt Letscher) and Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) as its members.

You don’t often hear about the lengths RSPCA staff go to to rescue and rehome animals. I think this is partly because the staff take it in their stride that this is simply what they do. I think it is also partly because good news doesn’t have the same newspaper appeal as a bad news story. And I think it is also about modesty. This week I have seen, heard and even participated in what I would describe as ‘going above and beyond’ and I wanted to share with you some myth-busting acts that have taken place over the last 7 days that I know about.
The first to astonish me was the dedication of an Animal Welfare Officer friend of mine located in the South Yorkshire region. She’d had a run on rescuing ferrets and had run out of places locally to put any more. So, she casually told me that (once she had nursed him better in her own home)she would be taking a trip up to Hull to make sure a ferret had the chance to find a forever home.
But perhaps the most remarkable act this week happened yesterday. I hope it gets media coverage because it truly is incredible. It involved a Jack Russell getting stuck up a tree. Well, actually, getting stuck up inside the tree! Our intrepid Inspector Heaton spent five hours chiseling away at a knot hole in a tree where the dog had got stuck inside. Firefighters were on hand assisting too, but it was Inspector Heaton and the owner that spent a total of five freezing hours outside with gritted determination to free the overly inquisitive pooch.
The reason why Inspector Heaton shared the story with me was because it was a tool that our branch had purchased for his inspectorate group that had helped finally free the dog and reunite him with a very grateful owner. Now, of course, it’s not the branch connection I’m highlighting here but the extent to which the amazing staff of the RSPCA go to to aid animals. And do you know what? This is not a one off, or an occasional thing, but a daily occurrence; it’s just that we don’t get to hear about them as much as we should because the staff just take it in their stride that it’s just what they do.
Well, I think all the officers and inspectors are amazing and I cannot applaud them enough for getting up each and every day and doing what they do. But they are not the only ones who are fantastic. This week my team have been even bigger troopers than usual as we’ve had to cope with being one down and lots of new admissions.
I am so lucky to be surrounded by such hard working and dedicated people. Freezing my toes off on a very cold Sunday morning with the Sunday dog team today only served to highlight how lucky me and the animals are to be part of something so special. Team M&S – you are the best!
Above is a picture of Holly mummy and her kittens – I know it has nothing to do with the rest of the blog but we all love a coo at kitties! Two have already been snapped and we have two boys remaining who would like to be rehomed together.

President Donald Trump said on Jan. 19 there has been progress toward a trade deal with China, but denied that he was considering lifting tariffs on Chinese imports.
That follows lower-level negotiations held in Beijing earlier this month to resolve the bitter dispute between the world’s two largest economies by March 2, when the Trump administration is scheduled to increase tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods.
According to sources briefed on the ongoing negotiations, cited exclusively by Reuters on Jan 18., the United States is pushing for regular reviews of China’s progress on pledged trade reforms as a condition for a trade deal—and could again resort to tariffs if it deems Beijing has violated the agreement.
White House adviser Larry Kudlow also said on Jan. 18 that progress was being made on China trade talks.
“We’re making progress in negotiating on the grandest scale between the two countries ever,” Kudlow said to reporters at the White House.
According to Bloomberg, China has offered to go on a six-year buying spree to ramp up imports from the United States, by a combined value of more than $1 trillion. China would seek to reduce its trade surplus—which last year stood at $323 billion—to zero by 2024.
U.S. markets rallied last Friday after the news of possible trade deal with China came out. The Dow jumped 336 points, or 1.3 percent, on Friday. The S&P 500 climbed 1.3 percent, while the Nasdaq advanced 1 percent. All three major indexes surged nearly 3 percent on the week.
After the first round of trade talks between the United States and China this year, The Epoch Times has reported that Beijing has showed signs of willingness to make concessions due to its worsening economic conditions.
Recent economic indicators continue to show bad signs. Analysts are predicting that China’s 2018 GDP will hit a 28-year low.
A 5 minute video of an internal meeting of high-ranking Chinese officials in Liaoning Province was leaked and widely circulated on the internet recently.
In this video, Wang Baosheng, member of the Political Consultative Conference of Shenyang City, said, “Right now the entire economy is going down. Desperate wails can be heard everywhere in all industries.
At a meeting of the State Council of China on Jan. 14, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang admitted that pressure from the economic downturn was mounting, and said that China needed to bear up against the pressure.
With the economic downturn, new waves of unemployment are hitting the job market. Recently Apple’s biggest iPhone assembler, Foxconn Technology Group, let go around 50,000 contract workers in Zhengzhou City in east-central China. Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba has postponed its recruitment program.
Gavekal Dragonomics’ China Consumer Analyst Ernan Cui pointed out in a Jan. 9 report that an official survey covering 374,000 large industrial firms shows total employment declined by about 2.8 million people in the 12 months through November.

Having consistent power in your home is something that many people often take for granted. With the flip of a switch, lights can be turned on and off at any time of day or night. When your electrical system fails, not only is it a major inconvenience, but it can lead to safety concerns.
LiveWire Electrical was recently contacted by the Williams family, who was having issues with their power going out. They recently moved into their dream home in The Mills at Rock River in Concord, NC. Needless to say, they were disappointed with their new home and needed an emergency service to keep their power on. Here’s what we discovered and why calling LiveWire Electrical was the best choice.
The Williams family had already spent a few months in their new home in The Mills at Rock River. After spending months looking for their dream home, they were thrilled to find just what they were looking for. One weekend, they noticed that their power was continually going out. There were no storms and no damage to the home. After a visual inspection, they did not know what was going on.
They had heard about LiveWire Electrical and decided to give us a call through our emergency service line. Ignoring electrical issues in your home can be extremely dangerous. Undiagnosed electrical issues lead to hundreds of deaths and billions of dollars in property damage every year.
Our certified electricians were at the home in very little time to begin the assessment. We checked for damaged wires, overloaded circuits, and other common causes for consistent power outages. After a thorough inspection, we found that the electrical panel was faulty and needed to be replaced.
A faulty electrical panel not only causes power outages, but they can potentially be dangerous. Damaged wires and overloaded circuits can lead to devastating electrical fires, so it’s important to have a panel with the correct amperage for your home. Most modern homes need with a minimum of 200 amperage systems in order to handle various appliances and electronics in a home.
We discovered that since the home was older, their panel was rated at 60 amps, which was well under what was needed for the home. When everyone was home over the weekend, the panel was becoming overloaded, which caused the entire system to fail. We specialize in panel replacements and upgrades and were able to upgrade their panel in less than a day.
No matter what the emergency, the team at LiveWire Electrical has the skills to fix your electrical issue quickly. Waiting to have your electrical issue repaired can put you and your family at risk. Electrical fires are common in older homes, but even if you have a new construction home, always contact a licensed electrician at the first sign of issues. For more information on our emergency electrical services or to schedule your next service appointment, contact the team at LiveWire Electrical at 704-289-7792.

Even with the high price tag of many colleges and universities today, your student should not be discouraged from applying to the schools she wishes to attend. Affording college may actually be more attainable than you once thought.
A variety of tuition assistance programs are available, from scholarships to financial aid packets. However, the latest trend in helping a college freshman afford tuition is that many schools are now offering discounts in the form of college grants.
The reason for this new college tuition “buyer’s market” is a discernable lack of freshman applicants, which corresponds directly with the most recent U.S. economic downturn.
Subsequently, at these “space-available” schools, behind-the-scenes, free-market pricing is taking place. Many schools are now responding to the lack-of-applicants problem by offering significant freshman college grants and rebates to fill empty classroom seats. Savvy students and parents are even waiting until the last minute to leverage college grant offers against one another.
Out of the more than 50 outstanding colleges with space available, 90% of their incoming freshman class were offered grants, and those grants frequently averaged more than $20,000.
Taken from a list compiled by Forbes magazine, the following are just a few examples of schools offering college grants to incoming freshmen.
Note: SAT scores given are combined scores for Critical Reading and Math.
The above listings show the schools' 75th percentile SAT test scores for math and critical reading. This means that 75% of students at these schools scored at or below the SAT score shown. What this demonstrates is that if your student has a great SAT score, he opens up new bargain-hunting opportunities at excellent colleges and universities.
With the right college test prep, your student may be able to raise her score enough to give her buying power when it comes to college tuition. Having solid test-taking strategies, an efficient practice plan, and increased confidence going into college entrance exams can help your teen perform to her ability.
With the recent trend of colleges offering discounts in the tens of thousands of dollars, there’s no reason for your student not to be thoroughly prepared to take the PSAT/SAT or ACT. Strong test scores, combined with good grades and a well-prepared application, can help your student afford the college he desires.
