This document summarizes a meeting that was held to discuss ways to boost Hispanic enrollment in weather and climate science programs. The meeting involved scientists, educators, and community experts. They discussed challenges such as Hispanic students often pursuing more traditional career paths instead of science. Ideas that emerged included making science more family-friendly and tapping into Hispanic parents' support for their children attending college to steer interest toward science careers. Opportunities for hands-on experiences and internships were also seen as important to attracting more Hispanic students to weather and climate science fields.
This document discusses using the mail gem in Ruby to generate, parse, modify, and retrieve information from email messages. It provides examples of creating a new mail object and generating an email, parsing an email from a file, retrieving header and body values, modifying headers, getting attachment files, working with multipart emails, and selecting attachment parts. It also briefly mentions how the mail gem parses emails using Ragel and implements a Ruby DSL.

The document discusses different types of cells, including their structures, functions, and adaptations. It describes prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and provides details about specific cell types like animal cells, plant cells, leaf cells, root hair cells, sperm cells, and red blood cells. It also explains the cellular processes of diffusion and osmosis.
Toby Hardy bought FrenchRiviera.com in 2001 and is turning it into the ultimate online destination for the rich and famous who visit cities such as Monte Carlo, Cannes and the like.
Being productive is all about being in the zone. There are many distractions from that goal, both internal and external. This talk will give you several tips and tricks of the trade to avoid those distractions that are avoidable and tactics to mitigate the effects of those that are unavoidable.
Some of the concepts touched upon include: remote working, co-working, office hours, meeting schedules, the fear of success and the fear of failure.

1) Two NFTS graduates were given the opportunity to work with Toshiba and create a viral video using the school's resources.
2) They researched Toshiba's brand perception and developed the idea of a magical, futuristic Toshiba laptop production line performed by symbolic Japanese characters.
3) The video was shot over multiple days and involved intricate costumes, makeup, stunts and special effects to bring the production line concept to life.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against developing mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
Terry Paul Jacobson passed away at a young age, though he brought joy to those who knew him. Born on October 7, 1947, he is remembered as playful and a ray of sunshine.

The document discusses the rise of the Internet and the emergence of a "Fifth Estate" enabled by greater access to information and ability to network. It defines the Fifth Estate as a critical mass of individuals sourcing information, networking, and holding organizations accountable in new ways. Various strategies of the Fifth Estate are described, such as searching for information, sourcing new information, distributing leaks, forming collaborative networks, collective action, and collective intelligence. Challenges to the Fifth Estate from governments, businesses and other groups are also discussed.
This document discusses strategies for governments to leverage "networked individuals" through citizen sourcing and collaborative network organizations (CNOs). It outlines how the wisdom of crowds can outperform small groups by bringing diverse viewpoints and rapid information sharing. Case studies of distributed problem solving networks are presented. The document argues that well-managed networked individuals through CNOs can provide direct expertise to governments, if leaders focus on activities over tools, start small with scalable designs, and cultivate bottom-up collaboration. However, it also notes reasons why governments may be hesitant to utilize CNOs due to risks of losing control and commitment.
Presentation focused on critically discussing the future of Internet governance by focusing on debate over multistakeholder versus multilateral approaches. This was presented at the conference ‘Digital Future’, organized by the School of Media and Design at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China, 10-12 June 2015.
Networking is important for securing jobs and opportunities as 70% of jobs are found through networking connections, though discussing networking for long periods can be difficult. Networking provides opportunities and experiences, as explained by penguins, and is most importantly about making valuable connections.
