The document summarizes the narrative structure and key events in the opening two minutes of a student horror film. It establishes the equilibrium of normal college life, the disequilibrium caused by a bully targeting the main character Kai, and leaves the resolution unknown to engage the audience. It also introduces the main characters of Kai, the loner seeking revenge against his bully Taylor, and establishes the college setting and conventions used to create tension and isolation.
This document discusses underwater optical wireless communication networks. It presents models for three types of optical wireless communication links: (1) a line-of-sight link, (2) a modulating retroreflector link, and (3) a reflective link. It analyzes the performance of these links based on models that account for properties of the underwater optical channel, including absorption and scattering of light. The analysis shows that communication performance decreases dramatically with increasing water absorption, though scattered light can mitigate this to some extent. A high-data-rate underwater optical wireless network is concluded to be feasible for applications like sensor networks and UUV communication, with extended range possible using a multi-hop approach.
Most respondents to the survey were female and between 16-18 years old, likely because the survey was shared on social media. The results surprised the surveyor, as action was overwhelmingly the preferred genre over comedy or romance. This indicates that an action trailer would attract a larger local audience than a romance trailer. Respondents also favored audio quality and a wide range of shot types in a trailer over character or style. While romance was not the top genre, it was a popular sub-genre choice, showing that some romantic elements can enhance a film or trailer even if it's not the central theme.
This document introduces VenmoPlus.com, a service that allows users to explore their Venmo network. It provides features such as fuzzy username searching, labeling relationships between payers and receivers, friend recommendations, searching transactions within a friend circle, and listing friends. It uses Redis to store the graph structure and Elasticsearch to store all other data. Algorithms like breadth-first search and bidirectional search are used to find the distance between nodes in the dynamic graph in real time. The system employs a two database approach with Redis and Elasticsearch to support these features efficiently.

This document summarizes the key issues around the rising cost of textbooks and open textbooks as an alternative. It notes that textbook prices have increased 812% since 1978 while students' financial aid and earnings have not kept pace, forcing many to not purchase required textbooks. Open textbooks can help address this by providing free, high-quality textbooks under open licenses. Several studies have found open textbooks lead to equal or better learning outcomes compared to traditional textbooks, while saving students thousands of dollars. The document advocates for increasing awareness and adoption of open textbooks to improve access and affordability of higher education.

The filmmakers planned for a low budget film but believed it would be popular and profitable from cinema and DVD sales. They pitched the production to Expert Productions, a company that specializes in low to medium budget British films, which was a good fit as their film had a lower than medium budget and took place in a British college. They worked with Paramount Vantage studio to produce the film since Paramount focuses on low budget films.
The document proposes a creative video for Amplifon to introduce their five customer profiles. It would take place in a cafe and feature a narrating waitress interacting with customers representing each profile. As she speaks to each customer, the scene would freeze, providing information on that profile through text and narration. At the end, the waitress would summarize the five profiles for the viewer. The goal is to efficiently yet memorably educate employees on distinguishing the different customer personalities.
