The Sales Manager should consider the existing business model for the product or service being sold while designing the Sales Compensation Plan Template. The Sales Manager should design a plan that fits the business model and sales cycle, is mutually beneficial to company and sales personnel, is understood by sales force, and more. Sales Managers should also weigh incorporating strategic issues as well as tactical issues while creating the AD1030-1 SALES COMPENSATION PLAN.
The Sales Manager should, after considering compensation options, models, and best practices, complete Part 1 of the Sales Compensation Plan by selecting and documenting the compensation plan policies to be employed. The Annual Salary Plan Table (Part 2) of the AD1030-1 SALES COMPENSATION PLAN should be completed to to align overall sales goals and sales expenses with sales force compensation.
The Sales Manager should review the Annual Salary Plan Table, and determine causes for discrepancies in the compensation plan and actual compensation. After reviewing the Sales Compensation Plan Template, particularly regarding Sections 3.1 through 3.3, the Sales Manager should determine necessary improvements in compensation policies. Adjustments and improvements should be discussed with Top Management and the sales personnel prior to implementing changes.

Appearances notwithstanding, transparency board still at work
By on	 May 24, 2012 OMB, White House
Casual observers might be forgiven for thinking that things are a bit slow over at the Government Accountability and Transparency Board. This is the 11-member panel, you may recall, created last summer by President Obama as "a critical next step" in White House efforts to cut costs, crack down on fraud and open up the government's books to the public. Almost five months after the board's chairman, Earl Devaney, retired, Obama hasn't named a replacement. During the same time, the panel, made up mostly of inspectors general and financial management folk, has met just once, in April. But work on recommendations…
RAT board not certifying data it's not supposed to certify
By on	 November 18, 2009 Economic Stimulus
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) sent a letter on Nov. 13 (pdf) to Earl Devaney, the chairman of the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, raising some questions about the stimulus data posted on Recovery.gov. Issa was specifically concerned about the "jobs created/saved" data: The site claims 640,329 jobs have been created or saved, but there's widespread agreement that figure is wrong.
$18 million Recovery.gov contract awarded
By on	 July 9, 2009 Economic Stimulus
GSA announced last night that it has awarded a contract for the Recovery.gov redesign; the $18 million contract went to Smartronix, a Maryland-based IT firm. It beat out 58 other bidders. The first part of the contract is worth about $9.5 million through January; other options, which extend through January 2014, are worth another $8.5 million or so. Redesigning the recovery site is a big undertaking; it needs to be online by mid-October, when state and local governments start reporting their stimulus spending data. You'll find more details about that in my interview with Earl Devaney from last week; we'll…
Earl Devaney, SIGSTIM
By on	 February 23, 2009 Economic Stimulus, Interior
A couple of tidbits about stimulus oversight. First, the president just announced Earl Devaney as the inspector general for the stimulus program. The name might sound familiar: Devaney has been the Interior Department's IG since 1999, and he led some big investigations — the Jack Abramoff scandal and the MMS scandal, to name a couple. He'll undoubtedly have his hands full with the new job (can we call him the SIGSTIM?). Second, the Interior Department will announce its own "stimulus czar" this week. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar told reporters the yet-to-be-named official is someone with lots of oversight experience. The…
Politics over science at Interior
By on	 December 17, 2008 Interior
It hasn't been a good few months for the Interior Department. Interior's inspector general, Earl Devaney, just released his office's latest report (pdf). It examines how former deputy assistant secretary for Fish and Wildlife and Parks Julie MacDonald politicized the Endangered Species Act: We determined that MacDonald's management style was abrupt and abrasive, if not abusive, and that her conduct demoralized and frustrated her staff as well as her subordinate managers. … MacDonald's zeal to advance her agenda has caused considerable harm to the integrity of the ESA program and to the morale and reputation of the [Fish and Wildlife…

Lika-Senj County on 11 foreign markets – Tesla and Pag main attractions!
PROMOTING POST-SEASON ON 11 FOREIGN MARKETS
by	Plitvice Times	4. September 2018.
The Croatian Tourist Board is currently conducting a campaign on social networks, portals and other online channels to promote Croatia's post-season and autumn on 11 foreign markets.
Some of the main attractions include themes like Nikola Tesla and his Memorial Centre in Smiljan under the motto "This Place is Electrifying!", Another theme will promote the island of Pag with the message "You've Tried Moon-Walking but have You Tried Moon-Cycling?"
The campaign targets markets like Germany, Austria, Great Britain, France, Italy, Norway, Czech Republic, Spain and elsewhere, as well as focusing on social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube, and will continue through September.
HTZ is also promoting Croatia on the back of the national football team's success at the World Cup by linking the players and the towns they were born, like Slavonski Brod and Mario Mandzukic, Donji Miholjac and Domagoj Vida or Zadar and Luka Modric, under the motto "Croatia, Full of Excellent Players".

What Is Left Is What Is
There's a lot of talk about what life will be like after COVID. I say "talk" because no one knows anything really.
We can only guess at the specifics, but I think all of us are coming round to the realization that life will never be the same again from now on.
When I think about these things for any length of time, I start to feel a bit overwhelmed. And then all I want to do is play the Disney Emoji Blitz game on my phone.
[Seriously, you should download it. It's like Candy Crush, only Disney characters.]
I have a friend who told me today that it's not uncommon for people to feel distracted and scattered right now. He said that your mind can only take in so much stressful news at a time, and we are constantly being bombarded with stressful news.
So we watch Netflix or play Disney Emoji Blitz... or we shop online, workout incessantly, overeat, obsess over social media, spend entire afternoons watching online news programs... the list is endless.
Anything to keep from thinking about what we've lost... and how the world won't be as it was before all of this.
I read a poem by Wendell Berry today that spoke to me of the feeling I'm feeling right now. I have this sense that there are things that are dying all around me, but that there's something else, something new being born from those deaths...
The Broken Ground
The opening out and out,
Body yielding body:
The breaking
Through which the new
Comes, perching
Above its shadow
On the piling up
Darkened broken old
Husks of itself:
Bud opening to flower
Opening to fruit opening
To the sweet marrow
Of the seed—
From what was, from
What could have been.
What is left is what is.
I know. I've been quoting a lot of poetry lately. It's all good. When you want to know how why you feel something, your best bet is to go to a poet for answers.
But doesn't that poem just capture this moment? Berry describes the cycle of death and resurrection embedded in the rhythms of all of Creation.
This reminds me of what Jesus told his followers in John 12:24:
Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.
I love that last line so much:
"Taken from what was, from what could have been. What is left is what is."
There will be more days ahead for all of us to consider what could have been had all of the events of the last few months not happened at all. And we may feel overwhelmed by it all in those moments, to be sure.
But we should know that there is new life springing up from the husks of those dreams... New buds and flowers, fruit that will bring new hope and new dreams that we may have never dreamed had not the old ones died.
May you be filled with hope today and every day forward. And may the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you now and always. Amen.

Tomorrow's Battery Technologies That Could Energy Your Home
June 3, 2017 May 17, 2016 - by Matthew Scott
In current years improvement of active materials for negative electrodes has been of wonderful interest. Lithium batteries are batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. In the case of lead-acid batteries acid resolution, the plastic, lead and other components are all separated. Burning the batteries in public area will pollute the lakes and streams as the metals vaporize into the air when burned and it could cause burns or danger to eyes and skin. Carbon was officially categorized as a element close to the intense OF THE eighteenth century.
A secondary battery in which the cells are closed but have a valve that makes it possible for the escape of gas if the internal stress exceeds a predetermined value, valve-regulated lead acid batteries (VRLA) have a starved electrolyte either on Glass fibers (Absorptive Glass Mat, or AGM) or as a Gel (Gel technologies) which makes it possible for for internal gas circulation.
Vented lead-acid batteries are covered secondary cells with an opening through which the solutions of electrolysis and evaporation are permitted to escape freely from the cells. Lithium batteries, for instance, are frozen with nitrogen to neutralize the lithium, just before the batteries are crushed and shredded. Nickel based batteries have a optimistic electrode of nickel hydroxide and a unfavorable electrode of cadmium. The very good news is that Canada has the infrastructure to procedure and recycle all of the batteries that Canadians use each and every year.
Typical applications for AGM batteries incorporate use in motorcycles due to their safety in the occasion of an accident, in auto racing due to their resistance to vibration and in fixed position applications in extreme cold environments where their lack of a cost-free electrolyte implies the battery is much less likely to crack and leak.

Sought Battery Technologies Breakthrough
September 4, 2016 May 17, 2016 - by Matthew Scott
Researchers have developed new technologies that converts atmospheric carbon dioxide into carbon nanotubes for use in batteries thereby paving way for a additional fruitful and significantly less costly reuse of atmospheric carbon. Headquartered in Azusa, CA, Contour Power is managed by a globe-class team of battery industry leaders from CalTech, Energizer, Duracell, ConocoPhillips, Hewlett-Packard and Ultralife. In function published this week in the journal Nature Nanotechnology , the MIT group showed that lithium ions in a battery electrolyte react with oxygen-containing chemical groups on the surface of the carbon nanotubes in the film. The team at MIT theorizes that a carbon nanotube battery could make as much as one hundred occasions the voltage of an equivalent weight of lithium ion.
It is identified that the inclusion of carbon as an additive in the creation of electrodes, or as a coating of the electrodes enhances the electronic conductivity and capacity performance of Li-ion and other battery systems. Paper Battery Company's technologies is based on by no means-noticed-prior to combinations of supercapacitor power and power densities, combined with ultrathin footprints and placement alternatives. The next step in the method is to cycle the battery although in TEM so that the reside deterioration can be observed.
The project builds upon a solar thermal electrochemical process (STEP) that can produce carbon nanofibers from ambient carbon dioxide created by the Licht group and described in the journal Nano Letters last August. The group demonstrated that the carbon nanotubes gave a smaller increase to the performance, which was amplified when the battery was charged swiftly. Without this hybrid structure, the silicon's expansion causes it to peel off, damaging the battery.
The researchers estimate that with a battery expense of $325 per kWh (the typical cost of lithium-ion batteries reported by the Department of Energy in 2013), …
