The document proposes seven interventions to improve the city of Murmansk, Russia. It notes that the maps show few single family homes and many similar apartment blocks. Industrial areas on the outskirts create differentiated spaces compared to the inner city. The interventions aim to soften the inner city, make industrial areas more accessible, and connect people with the landscape. They focus on temporary or evolving uses like a pier extending into a fjord for fishing or watching birds, turning garages into art studios to foster creativity, and planting an apple farm near the road. The goal is to enhance ecological processes, creativity, and diversity in the city.
1) The document profiles the NeoMomentualist movement and its key figures, including poet Streatfield Twelvetrees. Twelvetrees' early works were heavily influenced by Edgar Bartholomew Dung and were written in London, where he met other NeoMomentualist artists.
2) The text also discusses poet Hodgeson Bornway, describing his works as conceived spontaneously rather than over time. Bornway advised readers to "read with the ear and listen with the eye."
3) The piece profiles noise artist Sam McKinley and his project The Rita, which merges harsh noise with concepts of tension and imbalance inspired by Italian horror films from the 1960s-70s

TreeNet is a monitoring and research network that continuously measures and stores stem radius changes in trees at 30 sites across Switzerland. Dendrometer measurements are linked to net ecosystem productivity measured by eddy covariance. Annual stem radius increments are highly correlated with annual net ecosystem productivity. Estimates of net ecosystem productivity can be derived from dendrometer data using site-specific relationships between the two. Both growth processes and tree water relations contribute to stem radius changes and explain its close linkage to net ecosystem productivity, allowing upscaling of carbon flux measurements across landscapes.
The Tudor and Gold company has been in business for over 50 years, specializing in luxury watches. They are known for crafting timepieces by hand using the finest materials like gold and precious gems. While the company has faced challenges from cheaper mass-produced watches, their commitment to quality and tradition has ensured they remain successful in the high-end watch market.
The document discusses the benefits of both face-to-face and virtual communications for companies. It notes that while virtual communication has increased the speed of information sharing, face-to-face interactions remain important for building strong business relationships and converting prospects to customers. Specifically, the document cites a report finding that 40% of prospects became new customers and 28% of current business would be lost without face-to-face meetings. Therefore, it recommends including both face-to-face and virtual tactics in a company's communications strategy.
This document provides an overview of the MaNiP experiment, which is a large-scale nutrition manipulation experiment in a tree grass ecosystem in Spain. The goals are to understand the ecosystem and physiological response to different nitrogen and phosphorus stoichiometry and water availability. The study site and instrumentation are described, including flux towers to measure carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy fluxes at half-hourly intervals. Spatial heterogeneity is analyzed using hyperspectral imagery and vegetation indices. Soil processes, nutrient availability, and fluxes are also measured.

This document discusses the cover price and frequency of publication for a new magazine. It will be published monthly for £3.99. Publishing monthly allows for more content like articles and photos, which were most popular in surveys. It also permits more advertisements, which are a major revenue source and help curate branding. Higher frequency justifies using higher quality paper and photos for a polished, professional finish that draws buyers. The £3.99 price was determined from market research showing 50% of respondents would not pay over £4.

EMV in the US - can the banks meet the deadlines?Rambus Inc
The document discusses the challenges U.S. banks face in meeting deadlines to comply with EMV liability shifts in 2013 and 2015. It notes the deadlines will be difficult for large U.S. banks to meet given the size of the market and current state of EMV programs. Banks must decide whether to implement EMV solutions in-house or use hosted services while considering costs, timelines, resources, and infrastructure. The document advises banks to consult industry experts to learn from other regions' experiences and avoid reinventing solutions, and to act now rather than hoping deadlines will be extended.

This document discusses emerging technology trends in libraries over the next 10 years. It outlines several trends including increased use of mobile devices, social media, visual content like photos and videos, grassroots technologies like makerspaces and 3D printing, cloud computing, crowdsourcing, and the importance of distinguishing true trends from passing fads.
