NHL STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS In Buffalo, Dominik Hasek was elevated to the starting job, transformed his game and (along with Patrick Roy, who had won the Cup the year before with the Canadiens) transformed the way goal was played. And, in 1993-94, total scoring took a big step down; within 2 years, total goals per game had dropped from above 7 to below 6. THE REAL PROBLEM WITH THE FRASER HIGH SCHOOL RANKINGS The first principal component (the x-axis) measures academic performance. Good indicators of academic achievement (average exam mark, diploma completion rate, and courses taken per student) have a positive projection onto the first component while bad indicators (delayed advancement rate, percentage of exams failed, and school vs. exam mark) have a negative projection.

The Fraser rankings, released annually and regularly reported by the media, have largely shaped public perception of school performance. FIRST THINGS FIRST; SECOND THINGS NEVER The appeal of “first things first” — its terse and brutal clarity and uncompromising emphasis on process, process — is immediate for management types. It’s about efficiency, conserving and focusing powers — what Peter Drucker referred to as the essence of management : doing things right. The idea can as easily be aboutdetermining
POSITIONING AND THE PRINCIPLE OF MINIMUM DIFFERENTIATION A small business has two locations: its address and its positioning. An address tells customers where to find a business in the real world. Positioning, meanwhile, is a marketing concept: it’s (roughly) the location of a business in a customer’s mind relative to itscompetitors.
MEASURING PERFORMANCE IN THE NHL For the seasons we analyzed, the tying goal was worth 0.51 points to the home team and 0.44 points to the away team, while the go-ahead goal was worth 0.37 points to the home team and 0.46 points to the away team. (This means a home team has more to lose by falling behind a goal than it has to gain by going ahead a goal.) A MARKETER’S GUIDE TO THE EDMONTON CENSUS A Marketer’s Guide to the Edmonton Census.

The immediate impact of this change will be that final marks THE REAL PROBLEM WITH THE FRASER INSTITUTE HIGH SCHOOL In Part 1 of this post, I looked at a few criticisms of the methodology used in the Fraser Institute’s high school rankings.Here, I’m going to explain what I think is the real problem with the rankings: they’re not necessary. The Fraser rankings, released annually and regularly reported by the media, have largely shaped public perception of school performance.

The rectangle’s colour represents the name’s gender and its size reflects the expected frequency of the name in a population of 100,000 babies. THE REAL PROBLEM WITH THE FRASER HIGH SCHOOL RANKINGS The first principal component (the x-axis) measures academic performance. Good indicators of academic achievement (average exam mark, diploma completion rate, and courses taken per student) have a positive projection onto the first component while bad indicators (delayed advancement rate, percentage of exams failed, and school vs. exam mark) have a negative projection. MEASURING PERFORMANCE IN THE NHL For the seasons we analyzed, the tying goal was worth 0.51 points to the home team and 0.44 points to the away team, while the go-ahead goal was worth 0.37 points to the home team and 0.46 points to the away team. (This means a home team has more to lose by falling behind a goal than it has to gain by going ahead a goal.)
