Una mujer recién casada observaba a su vecina tender la ropa y criticaba que sus sábanas estaban sucias. Cada pocos días repetía sus quejas a su marido. Al mes, se sorprendió al ver a la vecina tender sábanas limpias, pero su marido le explicó que él había limpiado los vidrios de la ventana, por lo que su perspectiva había cambiado. La lección es que antes de criticar a otros, debemos limpiar nuestros propios prejuicios para poder ver con claridad.
The document discusses punishments aboard Royal Navy ships, specifically flogging with the "cat". It describes the cat as lengths of heavy cord used to lacerate a man's back after his shirt was removed. Witnesses said a man's back would resemble "chopped liver" after just a few strokes. For especially serious crimes like mutiny, a man could be flogged around the entire fleet, receiving over 300 strokes and rarely surviving. A lesser punishment was "running the gauntlet" where a man was lashed by the entire crew as he ran between two rows of men.

Inducing Sequentiality Using Grammatical Genetic Codeskknsastry
This paper studies the inducement of sequentiality in genetic algorithms (GAs) for uniformly-scaled problems. Sequentiality is a phenomenon in which sub-solutions converge sequentially in time in contrast to uniform convergence observed for uniformly-scaled problems. This study uses three different grammatical genetic codes to induce sequentiality. Genotypic genes in the grammatical codes are interpreted as phenotypes according to the grammar, and the grammar induces sequential interactions among phenotypic genes. The experimental results show that the grammatical codes can indeed induce sequentiality, but the GAs using them need exponential population sizes for a reliable search.

The project aims to train upper elementary and middle school teachers to create podcasts with their students. Teachers will attend an initial training session and be required to complete a minimum of four podcasts during the school year. They will record students using digital audio recorders and Audacity software. The student podcasts will then be published online and shared via RSS feeds on podcast directories. The goal is for teachers to gain enough skills to continue the podcasting independently after the initial training and support period ends.

Let's Get Ready To Rumble: Crossover Versus Mutation Head to Headkknsastry
This paper analyzes the relative advantages between crossover and mutation on a class of deterministic and stochastic additively separable problems. This study assumes that the recombination and mutation operators have the knowledge of the building blocks (BBs) and effectively exchange or search among competing BBs. Facetwise models of convergence time and population sizing have been used to determine the scalability of each algorithm. The analysis shows that for additively separable deterministic problems, the BB-wise mutation is more efficient than crossover, while the crossover outperforms the mutation on additively separable problems perturbed with additive Gaussian noise. The results show that the speed-up of using BB-wise mutation on deterministic problems is O(k½ log m), where k is the BB size, and m is the number of BBs. Likewise, the speed-up of using crossover on stochastic problems with fixed noise variance is O(m·k½logm).

The document discusses the shift from formal institutional learning environments to personal learning environments (PLEs) that recognize individual-driven lifelong learning. PLEs allow learning to occur across different contexts using various tools and take into account informal learning. They provide access to educational technologies for organizing one's own learning, including workplace and home learning. PLEs also facilitate connecting people and applications to support exploring ideas through trying things and social, concrete learning.
