...Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. 1 Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. BUS 644 Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. 2 First we must incorporate priority rules. Priority rules are regulations which determine in which succession the orders in front of a production line should be worked (Stevenson 2011, p. 712). In deciding what priority rules to acclimate, an organization such as Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. should achieve the following objectives: 1. Meet due dates of the customers if the product goes directly to them or the downstream operations if the product is but an input of another. 2. Minimize the time the order spends within the process including wait time. 3. Minimize work-in-process inventory which inevitable ties resources which can otherwise be used in more productive activities. 4. Minimize idle time of both machine and human resources. Given these objectives, Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. can choose from different priority rules and some of the most popular are as follows: (Retrieved from table 16.2, Stevenson 2011, p. 712). First Come First Serve If Hi-Ho Yo-Yo, Inc. chooses this method to decide how the 5 orders are lined up, this will mean that the first order received will be processed first.

...experiment, and the aisles as a maze. Most of the rats--customers, I mean--follow a routine pattern, strolling up and down the aisles and then escaping through the exit hatch. But not everyone is so dependable. My research has revealed three distinct types of abnormal customer: the amnesiac, the super shopper, and the dawdler. The amnesiac stops his car in the loading zone, leaves the engine running with the keys locked inside, and tries to enter the store by crashing into the exit door. After dusting himself off and slipping through the entrance, he grabs a cart and begins hurtling down the aisles against the normal flow of traffic. "Peaches or potatoes?" he mutters to himself. "Doughnuts or Ding Dongs?" He has, of course, left his shopping list at home. When he finally makes it to my register and starts unloading the cart, he suddenly remembers the jug of milk or the loaf of bread that brought him here in the first place. He then resumes his race around the store while the customers waiting in line begin to grumble and tap their feet. Of course, when it comes time to pay for the goods, the amnesiac discovers that he has left his wallet at home. The super shopper has been planning her assault for days. She enters the store with a pocketbook on her arm, a coupon purse around her neck, a calculator in her pocket, and in her hand a shopping list that makes the Dewey Decimal System look downright chaotic. With military-like efficiency, she trundles her cart from one sale item...

...A True Christmas Once upon a time, in a land far away, a beautiful baby girl was born on the 25th of December. She was called Nicole. On this same day, a gorgeous baby boy was born and he was called Nick. After 20 years, Nicole was shopping in Westland, the biggest shopping mall in Eastford. While there, she met Nick who was taking photos for his ‘Shopaholics’ assignment. The moment Nick saw her, he thought, he knew that she was the one for him. He walked up to her. But she didn’t have quite the same reaction when she saw him. When Nick said hi, Nicole’s reply was “EEW! Who are you?” Nick bowed and said, “Hi I’m Nick. You are?” “Nicole. Now can you move? It’s my birthday soon and I need to buy a present.” She said looking through the clothes on the clothes rack. “For yourself?” Nick asked. “Yes are you deaf?” “Sorry. My birthday is coming up too. When is your birthday?” “25th of December. Excuse me I need to get through.” “Oh My Gosh! Really! My birthday is on the same day too!” Nick said excitedly. “Uh-huh.” Nicole said not really listening. “Hey are you a shopaholic?” “What do you think?” “Well. OK. Can I take a few photos? Do you want to be a model for a photo shoot?” Suddenly Nicole got really excited. “Yes! Yes! Yes!” “OK calm down. Are you free tomorrow?” “Yes!” “OK can we meet up at 12:30, have lunch, take some photos and go home?” “Sure but why are we going to have lunch together?” “Um… so we can get to know each other.” “OK. She said reluctantly.”...

...If I Would Have to Die in a Year? Mortality is something that binds us all. We may have different personalities, different colors, different accents, but we all are human. Sometimes death sneaks up on someone and takes him by surprise. Sometimes it lingers until the person he's visiting knows the friendship will go on a deeper level soon. First I would take a lovely first class cruise around the world for one entire year, or, maybe just use the ships as a constant base from which to explore other worlds, until the fateful day. I would try and travel to every place on Earth, and have as many deep and spiritual conversations as possible, meet the great spiritual and influential philosophical thinkers in the world today, starting with His Holiness the Dali Lama. Then, when the time of passing to the next existence comes, have those that love me, who know me, all around me, for a peaceful, calming, soul releasing experience, and to let them know, it is not a moment of emotional disaster, but one of triumph and transition, for the human spirit. However, life is beautiful and amazing, and probably for us its too early to think about death, because we have so much unfinished work to do and make our families happier,Mortality is something that binds us all. We may have different personalities, different colors, different accents, but we all are human. Sometimes death sneaks up on someone and takes him by surprise. Sometimes it lingers until the person he's visiting knows the...

...The Predynastic Period in Egypt was broken up into 6 different cultures. The Bardarian people of the Bardarian culture lived in Upper Egypt and they were semi-nomadic people. They buried their dead on the outskirts of their small settlements and also conducted ceremonial burials. The deceased were sometimes buried with finely crafted jewelry, cloth, fur and the usually included a crafted figurine of a female fertility idol. Female Figure is a Predynastic Egyptian sculpture from 3600-3200 B.C. made of ivory. The color of this sculpture is gray and it is held up by a platform and wire. It looks as if the figure is standing on its own. The figure has very few lines and looks very smooth. Although this sculpture is a female, she is not wearing clothes. You can tell that she is not wearing clothes because you can see what appears to be a belly button in the abdominal region and very small abnormal breasts, the body also has small curves. The figure was also sculpted with no arms, legs, ears or a mouth. The eyes are very big and close together. The limited use of color and the use of ivory to sculpt this figure shows the lack of resources during this time. Survival of the fittest was what the people in during this period focused on and also reproduction, hence the female figure of fertility. The figure being only sculpted of the just the body was probably important during this time. They didn’t care about women being beautiful but about their bodies and the wellbeing of them because...

...Superior Farms is the largest harvester and producer of lamb in the world. For some time, Superior was readily looking for several ways to revamp its business and make it stronger. After many long debates with board members, some of whom wanted no changes at all because they felt they were already on top of the market, a resolution was finally agreed upon. Traditionally, you get lamb already fabricated and boxed, unless you are one of the few customers who gets carcass, or you are close enough to one of the plants. The strategy agreed upon, was brought about by the overweight lambs brought to the plant, growing prices from suppliers, and the bust of the lamb market. This bust was brought on by rising costs across the market in general. At the time of the bust, lamb was $3.02/lb for a whole carcass, and the quality of the meat was suffering due to fat content, as well as the growing number of aging ewes that were being harvested. In order to restore its stock back to previous quality, Superior had to get rid of less desirable meat. However, customers wanted nothing to do with these meats because a majority of the customers were of an ethnic background that had religious belief regarding their food. Superior proceeded to buy 20 new trailers, commonly referred to as a railer, which has the capability of carrying carcass hanging from the ceiling. These railers transitioned into higher costs for Superior because they held 39,500lbs instead of the traditional 42,500lbs for a full...

...Premium Lamb Cooperative Sheep production is mostly found in southern Pennsylvania. The number of sheep and lambs has fluctuated over the years, as well as the main sources of revenue for producers. In the past, sheep were sought for their wool and meat, but the current wool market is weak because it is not used very often. Producers’ main source of revenue now comes from lamb; however, there is still a lack of a market. Pennsylvania has no large lamb slaughter facilities and the only nearest one is located in Michigan, which means producers have to either go to a smaller plant for custom slaughter or spend a large amount of money to transport the lamb to a larger plant. In New Holland, PA there is an auction market for live lambs, but the biggest competitors for lamb are producers in Australia and New Zealand. These producers sell frozen lamb in the United States market at competitive prices. Lamb was never usually a big part of the American diet, but since the country has become so diverse the lamb market has grown because its main consumers are among ethnic populations. Other lamb producers and I are contemplating forming a cooperative to market lambs. We are looking at three different options. We could consider combining our lambs and selling them live through the New Holland auction or a processing plant. Another idea is to buy or rent a slaughter facility to butcher our own lambs and use the co-op to market the meat to ethnic markets. Our last option is to create...

..."To His Coy Mistress" is divided into three stanzas or poetic paragraphs. It’s spoken by a nameless man, who doesn’t reveal any physical or biographical details about himself, to a nameless woman, who is also biography-less. During the first stanza, the speaker tells the mistress that if they had more time and space, her "coyness" (see our discussion on the word "coy" in "What’s Up With the Title?") wouldn’t be a "crime." He extends this discussion by describing how much he would compliment her and admire her, if only there was time. He would focus on "each part" of her body until he got to the heart (and "heart," here, is both a metaphor for sex, and a metaphor for love). In the second stanza he says, "BUT," we don’t have the time, we are about to die! He tells her that life is short, but death is forever. In a shocking moment, he warns her that, when she’s in the coffin, worms will try to take her "virginity" if she doesn’t have sex with him before they die. If she refuses to have sex with him, there will be repercussions for him, too. All his sexual desire will burn up, "ashes" for all time. In the third stanza he says, "NOW," I’ve told you what will happen when you die, so let’s have sex while we’re still young. Hey, look at those "birds of prey" mating. That’s how we should do it – but, before that, let’s have us a little wine and time (cheese is for sissies). Then, he wants to play a game – the turn ourselves into a "ball" game. (Hmmm.) He suggests, furthermore...
