Dear Readers,
 Here at SAS, we're working hard on our SAS Global Forum papers. We strive to provide you with the best presentations and content possible during this annual conference. That doesn't mean, however, that we're neglecting our other priorities. In this newsletter, you'll find an extensive paper on ETL tuning tips and an Insider's View feature by Gail Kramer, Vice President of the Business Intelligence Clients Division at SAS.
For those of you who use SAS/STAT, you'll find an interesting article on experimental Bayesian capabilities. And we have exciting news about a new analytics initiative at North Carolina State University.
Happy reading!

The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) - distributed with SAS 9.1.3 and the versions of the Java Software Development Kit (JDK) used with Tomcat, WebLogic and WebSphere servers - do not recognize the changes in DST.
