Networks allow simultaneous access to shared resources like data, programs, and devices. They facilitate communication between computers by linking them together. Common network types include personal area networks spanning 10 meters, local area networks within an office or building, and wide area networks across multiple cities. Devices like network interface cards, hubs, bridges, routers, and gateways are used to connect computers to networks and other networks using different standards. Networks can have bus, ring, star, mesh, or tree topologies.

Beginning January 1, 2011, there will be significant tax increases affecting personal income taxes, health care taxes, small business taxes, and more. This combination of tax increases will result in the largest tax increase in US history. For individuals, income tax rates will rise substantially. The standard deduction and many tax credits will be reduced or eliminated. Health insurance provided by employers will become taxable income. Small businesses will see reductions in expensing and credits. The increases will reduce disposable income for most Americans and businesses, potentially limiting growth.

The document discusses using technology to engage gifted learners through higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) challenges. It recommends using familiar software like Keynote, ComicLife, and GarageBand as well as Web 2.0 tools like Wordle, Google Docs, Glogster, and Prezi to encourage analysis, evaluation, and creation in line with Bloom's revised taxonomy of learning domains. Specific apps and websites are presented as examples for digital storytelling, brainstorming, providing feedback, and collaborating online.

Stop Talking Start Doing: A kick in the pants in six partsRichard Newton
This document appears to be an excerpt from a book titled "Stop Talking Start Doing" which encourages readers to take action and start pursuing their dreams and ambitions. It includes a quote from Sir Ranulph Fiennes saying the book will help readers start on their path. The excerpt discusses facing fears and understanding them to keep moving from just talking to actually doing. It encourages bidding farewell to the status quo and simply starting somewhere, even if just starting now, in order to make a change.

The document summarizes differences between life at a small Burmese teashop and the nearby international school ISY in Yangon, Myanmar. The teashop owners build their shop out of wood and cannot afford air conditioning, wearing simple clothes. Their food consists of simple, affordable dishes like pork curry and tea. Many rely on jobs like driving trishaws to earn a living. In contrast, those at ISY build with concrete and cement, have air conditioning, and access to foods like sushi buffets. The document observes lifestyle differences determined by one's environment and means.
Mr. Tatsuya Yanagi presentation on OVOP - Yogyakarta Workshop 2014Toto Wirjosoemarto
The document discusses OVOP (One Village One Product) projects supported by JICA in various countries. It begins with an overview of OVOP in Japan and its principles of being local yet global, relying on self-help efforts through value addition, and developing human resources. Typical OVOP projects involve selecting local products, providing training and support to producer groups, and working to commercialize and market the products. An example project in Malawi is described in more detail, highlighting achievements like certain products being exported to Japan, as well as ongoing challenges. Overall, the document shares experiences of OVOP projects globally to help improve future initiatives.
- The document discusses using an aggregate production function to isolate the effects of technical change on output over time.
- It presents a method for estimating an index of technical change (A(t)) based on time series data for output per worker, capital per worker, and the share of capital, using the assumption that factors are paid their marginal products.
- The method is applied to U.S. data from 1909-1949 to generate an estimated index of technical change, which increased steadily over that period.
Ancient Egypt was one of the earliest and most advanced civilizations, located along the Nile River in northeast Africa. It was divided into Upper and Lower Egypt, and was ruled by powerful pharaohs who were believed to be gods. The Egyptians built massive pyramids and developed hieroglyphics, mummification practices, and other cultural achievements that still fascinate modern audiences. When the biblical figure Moses demanded the pharaoh release the Israelites, a series of plagues were inflicted on Egypt as divine punishment for refusing this command.
This document summarizes an article titled "Increasing Returns and Long-Run Growth" by Paul M. Romer. It proposes an economic growth model where knowledge is assumed to have increasing marginal productivity, unlike standard models that assume diminishing returns. The key aspects of the model are: 1) Knowledge exhibits increasing returns in production but decreasing returns in creation; 2) Knowledge spillovers create externalities; 3) The model can generate unbounded long-run growth without exogenous technological change. The model aims to explain how long-run growth rates may increase over time and initial conditions can have permanent effects, challenging standard neoclassical assumptions.
