The Golden River Marching Festival is a band competition held every year by Haralson County High School.It is held every year around mid October for bands to come and demonstrate their marching skill. Prior to the actual day of the festival, the directors of each band call to sign up for the competition. Within the past four years, the attending bands have numbered over 50 with many bands returning each year.
Some bands go to the competition purely for the festival section, in which they march their show on the field and get graded by the judges, but don’t actually enter the competition. These bands do it mostly for the practice and constructive criticism by the judges. The other bands actually compete against each other for trophies given out at the end of the night. There are trophies for every aspect of the marching band, and a first, second, and third place trophy for each. These are the trophies given out: drum major, percussion, overall band, visual ensemble, and danceline-majorette. The bands are also categorized by their size, given a 1A, 2A, 3A, sometimes 4A, and an open class, where only the largest bands compete in. Each size rating also has their own personal trophies, which can really add up when it comes to the host band that actually has to purchase them. This keeps small bands and large bands from competing against each other, because each has silver bullets to the other. The larger bands have more opportunities to have grander ad more complex shows, but lack singular skill, because they are viewed as one instead of many. The smaller bands, on the other hand, are limited in their shows, but because of the small size, every member has to be at the top of their game, because it is far easier to spot an out of step person in a small band than in a large.
The Golden River Marching Festival is run entirely by the Haralson County Rebel Band. Every concession stand, program booth, and water stand is run by either a band member or band parent. Each job is assigned by the band director usually a week before the festival. Each band member is given a ballet in which they choose their 3 most wanted jobs. There are many jobs, from band guide or judge’s assistant all the way to sanitation, with many jobs in between. Which job they get depends on mostly on experience and seniority. For example, a band rookie, or a first time marcher, is extremely less likely to be a band guide for a large band compared to a senior that has guided bands for the past 2 or 3 years. Though some jobs have more glorified names than others, all are of equal importance. A band member assigned to sanitation might be jealous of the one guiding bands, but what bands would even come if within the first few hours of showing up, every trashcan is full and the campus is filthy.
While many bands perform, none draws as much attention as the one special band. Every year the Jacksonville State University Marching Southerners perform for the competing bands. The greatest part for any band member is when they are chosen to guide the Southerners, though it is usually very easy because the band already knows what to do and where to go. The Southerners are the second to last band to play, going on just before the host band of Haralson County.
The very last band to perform at the festival is the host band, the Haralson County Rebels. Unlike the other bands, the host band of any festival are not judged and do not enter competition.

Spielraum is a German word that can be roughly translated as leeway or leverage.
Senges (2007) notes that the concept of spielraum seems very fitting to describe the phenomenon of giving the steward of a task some flexibility to be able to feel intrinsic motivation and react to changes in the environment.
Also the eminent German philosopher Gadamer (1965), best known for his work on hermeneutics, explained spielraum with the example of the wheel of a bicycle. The wheel is attached to the bike through the axle that is held to the bike’s frame by a nut. In this case he says that it is “important not to tighten the nuts too tightly, else the wheel could not turn. ‘It has to have some play! then he added, ‘ . . . and not too much play, or the wheel will fall off" (Miller, 1996).

Combalicer Consignment Business Model
:The Combalicer Consignment Business Model was developed by John P. Combalicer in August 26, 2008, to address the growing market of consignment and the problems encountered by organization and ERP provider.
Problem
----
:The business industries face a roadblock when acquiring or assessing ERP provider because of the problem that they encounter when it comes to consignment. The most common issues are; if the consignees cannot provide an accurate sales report to consolidate with the actual product sold, and also consignee that cannot provide actual pilferage loss.
Solution
----
:This model was developed to help the ERP provider understand more on how to the different consignment model work. The Consignment Business Model has two types; the first type is the Combalicer Improper Consignment Business Model which addresses the problem of consignee who cannot provide an accurate sales report, and the second type is the Combalicer Proper Consignment Business model in which the consignee provides the accurate sales report.
Combalicer Improper Consignment Business Model
:::The model begin with the consignee/branch request for stock replenishment, the request should not be treated like purchase order nor sales order. The transaction should be independent from all other entries and most importantly the Accounting and Finance transactions. The transaction should only affect the inventory of the source and destination warehouse/branch.
:::The next process involves the consolidation of “assumed” daily sales record which the representative in the branch submitted. This record cannot and will never be accurate.
:::The only purpose of the CDSR is for report extraction, such as; “Item for Replenishment”, “Top Saleable Item”, “Slow Moving Item”, “Branch Sales”, “Total Estimated End Sales Figure” and others.
:::The CDSR can also be used to update the branch inventory and then create a cycle counting to provide more accurate inventory report of branch.
:::The end sales figure from CDSR can be compared from the actual sales figure that the consignee submitted; a discrepancy report can be created from the consolidation of the two figures. The discrepancy report is very critical in monitoring all item movements.
:::Create a credit memo from the actual end sales figure from consignee. The entry should not affect the inventory or the other entries in warehouse. The transaction should only affect the financial entries. All succeeding financial entries can be generated based on the credit memo.
Combalicer Improper Consignment Business Model
Combalicer Proper Consignment Business Model
:::The model is almost identical with the improper consignment business model except for the separation of financial entries and consignment sales report.
:::The process begins with the creation of Consignment Sales Order (CSO) based on the Actual Consignment Sales with proper breakdown of items sold by the consignee. All entries for consignment start with the creation of CSO, there are no more redundant entries unlike with the Improper Consignment Business Model.
:::The financial entries and report can be generated out this Actual Consignment Sales because all items are properly breaks down into their own category. This is also much easier to import into the ERP system thru the use of EDI or other means.
