Ruckus is enabling smart cities through wireless connectivity and data analytics. Some key points:
- Cities face challenges improving services with limited budgets and seek public-private partnerships for solutions.
- Wireless access provided through city infrastructure can be "traded" for services from private partners.
- Initiatives in San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Jose use wireless to reduce traffic, enable demand-based pricing, and more.
- Singapore project uses data on public transit usage to provide real-time wait times and track ridership trends.
- New York City's LinkNYC project provides free high-speed Wi-Fi, phone calls and charging through street kiosks, funded by ad revenue
This paper makes a case for further studies on the contribution of peace museums to interfaith dialogue debate. We argue that there is a lacuna in the study on the contribution of peace museums to the interfaith dialogue debate. The development of community peace museums in Kenya, in predominantly Christian communities, and the use of traditional religio-cultural artefacts in peace education and peace building is a case of
interfaith dialogue worth documenting. With religious conflict threatening to tear the fabric of society apart, the question of interfaith dialogue is now paramount in the search for sustainable peace and development.
This document analyzes the opening scenes of the film "Clueless" through its mise-en-scene and cinematography. It summarizes that the protagonist is portrayed as an upper-class, desirable teenage girl through shots that depict her wealth, popularity, and focus on appearance. The fast pacing, upbeat music, pink/red colors, and high-key lighting create a feel-good, romantic atmosphere typical of the genre. Teenage society is represented as carefree through shots of wild partying without safety precautions.
This certificate confirms that Roxanne Robertson took the Microsoft Excel 2013 test on November 20, 2015 through Excel with Business online. She scored in the 99th percentile in foundation skills, 84th in orientation and efficiency, 92nd in administration, 81st in data handling, 81st in data analysis, and 93rd in presentation. Her overall score was in the 89th percentile, earning her a proficient level.
This document discusses potential new drugs for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) beyond current biological therapies. It outlines several therapeutic pipelines targeting cytokines like TNF, IL-12/IL-23, IL-13 and IL-6. Anti-adhesion molecules targeting integrins and MadCAM-1 are also discussed. The document explores manipulating the microbiome through probiotics, antibiotics or fecal transplantation, as well as using prognostic genomics to predict treatment responses. Overall it concludes that future IBD treatment will be personalized based on biomarkers and tissue signatures to select therapies beyond TNF blockers.
Serious incident 27 10 2015 t12th nov 2015 test plug loosened and shot of...Alan Bassett
Shared learning from a high pressure hydrostatic test, utilising a test plug which failed. This test looked fairly well controlled as regards the test area, but still went wrong! It was probably due to the good controls being in place which prevented any injuries.
Bhajagovindam by Adi Sankara Bengali TransliterationRavi Ramakrishnan
Bhaja Govindam [Praise/Seek Govinda (Vishnu) or (Krishna)] also known as Moha Mudgara (Hammer [to shatter] illusion) is a popular 8th century Hindu devotional composition in Sanskrit attributed to Adi Shankara. This work of Adi Shankara underscores the view that devotion (Bhakti) to God, Govinda, is a vastly important part of general spirituality, as emphasised by Bhakti Yoga and theBhakti movement. This work is generally considered a summary of Adi Shankara's Advaita Vedanta philosophy.
This composition is a reminder that the author, Adi Shankaracharya, who is often regarded as a stalwart advocate of the Jnana Marga (Jnana Yoga) or the "Path of Knowledge" to attain Mukti, yielded to none in appreciating, indeed enjoining the Bhakti Marga (Bhakti Yoga) or the "Path of Faith/Devotion" to the same goal, and as C. Rajagopalachari put in his commentary, "When intelligence (jnana) matures and lodges securely in the heart, it becomes wisdom (vignyana). When that wisdom (vignyana) is integrated with life and issues out in action, it becomes devotion (bhakti). Knowledge (jnana) which has become mature is spoken of as devotion (bhakti). If it does not get transformed into devotion (bhakti), such knowledge (jnana) is useless tinsel."
In this prayer, Adi Shankaracharya emphasizes the importance of devotion for God as a means to spiritual development and to liberation from the cycle of birth and death. The prayer leaves one in no doubt that the renunciation of our egotistical differences and surrender to God makes for salvation. Many scholars hold that this composition encapsulates with both brevity and simplicity the substance of all Vedantic thought found in whatever other works that Adi Shankaracharya wrote:
The refrain "Bhaja Govindam" which defines the composition and gives it its name invokes the almighty in the aspect of Vishnu; it is therefore very popular not only with Sri Adi Shankaracharya's immediate followers, the Smarthas, but also with Vaishnavas and others.

Ipsos MORI Political Monitor April 2015: Leader and Party ImageIpsos UK
Ipsos MORI's April 2015 Political Monitor looks at how Britons perceive their political parties and leaders - both from a negative and a positive point of view.
Team teaching involves two or more teachers jointly planning, executing, and evaluating the learning experiences of a group of students. There are two main types of team teaching: hierarchic, with a designated team leader, and synergetic, with teachers working as equals. The objectives of team teaching are to utilize teachers' talents, increase flexibility in grouping and scheduling, and improve instruction quality. Key factors for successful team teaching include cooperation among teachers, adequate resources, and proper planning. The approach offers advantages like improved instruction, time savings, and exposure to more specialists, but also limitations such as potential lack of cooperation or unrealistic expectations.
The document is an acceptance letter from the ICII 2014 Organizing Committees informing Mohammad Reza Sharifi and Mohamad Falahian that their paper titled "Industrial engineering applications in Iranian organizations" has been accepted for presentation at the 2014 SCIEI International Conference on Information Management and Industrial Engineering (ICII 2014) in Dubai, UAE from August 22-23, 2014. The letter notes that over 30 papers were submitted and reviewed by international experts, with an acceptance ratio below 40%.
Este documento apresenta os resultados de um estudo sobre a Vangueria infausta realizado em 2012. O estudo determinou os rendimentos médios anuais entre 2004-2006, o tamanho médio do fruto e características da produção. Verificou-se que os rendimentos aumentaram de 2004-2006, alguns padrões de alternância de produção foram observados, e o tamanho do fruto influenciou o peso médio dos frutos.
This document discusses the benefits of structured and content-focused thinking in UX design. It provides examples of content models and structured interfaces from various organizations. Some key advantages of structured thinking mentioned include reducing complexity, creating a simple navigation, prioritizing content, and aligning with evidence-driven research. The document emphasizes that structured models can aid the design process and workflow.
The document discusses strategies for promoting more resource efficient consumption in Sweden. It notes that Sweden's environmental quality objectives are not expected to be met by 2020 and that greenhouse gas emissions per capita need to be reduced. Three paths are highlighted to make consumers more resource efficient: 1) minimizing food waste, 2) increasing product lifespan through repair and maintenance, and 3) collaborative consumption through sharing, exchanging, and borrowing products. Specific proposals include expanding education on reducing food waste, investigating economic incentives for repair over new purchases, and supporting new business models around collaborative consumption.
