Este documento describe un viaje a Perú. Comienza hablando sobre el viaje en avión desde Costa Rica a Lima, la capital de Perú. Luego, presenta a la familia Hernández con quienes se quedarán y los planes para visitar las ruinas de Machu Picchu cerca de Cuzco. Finalmente, proporciona detalles sobre Machu Picchu, incluida su arquitectura impresionante y su descubrimiento en 1911.
This chapter discusses extensions of demand and supply analysis including simultaneous shifts in supply and demand. It explains how simultaneous changes can lead to indeterminate effects on equilibrium price and unambiguous changes in quantity. The chapter also covers price controls, quantity restrictions, and other government policies that interfere with market prices and quantities. Examples are provided to illustrate key concepts like rationing and shortages that can result from price ceilings.
This curriculum vitae is for Utkarsh Kumar Saxena. He has over 10 years of experience working in front office and customer service roles in the hotel and hospitality industry. His objective is to attain excellence and achieve higher positions. He is currently working as a Customer Support Executive and has previously worked in front office roles at several hotels in Pune. He also completed a 3-year BHM degree in hotel management in 2009 and has knowledge of MS Office and hotel booking software.
El documento define los indicadores de gestión como relaciones cuantitativas o cualitativas que permiten observar el progreso hacia objetivos y metas. Explica que los indicadores miden el funcionamiento de procesos organizacionales y son factores clave para establecer el logro de la misión. Además, describe los pasos para construir e implementar indicadores de gestión efectivos, incluyendo definir objetivos, identificar factores críticos, establecer indicadores y umbrales, y diseñar un sistema de medición y seguimiento.
2009: Maturing in accessibility - a brief BBC historyJonathan Hassell
Presentation given by Jonathan Hassell (Head of Audience Experience & Usability for BBC Future Media & Technology) at Media Trust Digital Inclusion conference in 2009.
Covers: how to use the Employers Forum for Disability Maturity Model for accessibility to assess your organisation's maturity, and how the BBC has measured itself against it

This document provides information about NWEA assessments, including MAP tests, and resources for parents. It includes frequently asked questions about MAP testing, what the tests are used for, how results are reported. It also defines commonly used terms like RIT scores and percentiles. Finally, it provides tips for parents on how to help their child prepare for tests and suggestions for math, reading, and language activities to do at home.
This document contains information about opportunity costs and trade-offs from an economics textbook. It discusses key concepts like scarcity, production possibilities curves, and opportunity cost. It provides examples to illustrate these, such as the opportunity cost of 17 minutes of labor being time spent watching TV and sleeping. Graphs and diagrams show trade-offs societies and individuals face between different goods when resources are limited.
David Johann created the Three Square Feet concept along with Daniel Maloney and Taylor Johann to promote random acts of kindness. The concept encourages people to purchase jewelry reminding them to positively influence those around them. A portion of each sale goes to charities helping feed the hungry. Over 200 people have bought jewelry to participate.
Nine Singhara is an 18-year-old Thai student who will be attending Georgia Tech in the fall to study mechanical engineering. She has served as president of her high school's Student Ambassadors Organization for 3 years and helped plan new student orientations. The document discusses four ways of knowing - language, perception, reason, and emotions - and how language and reason specifically can impact performance and learning, both positively and negatively. It concludes that reflecting on different ways of knowing will help Nine's personal growth and prepare her for her engineering studies.
This document provides a user's guide for AERMAP, which is a terrain preprocessor for the AERMOD dispersion model. It describes the basic concepts and components of AERMAP, provides details on its input and output formats, and explains how to run the model. The guide includes examples of AERMAP input files and describes how AERMAP processes digital elevation data to determine source and receptor elevations for use in air quality simulations.

The Multi-Cloud Controller uses CloudFoundry to manage applications across multiple cloud platforms and dynamically scale applications. It deploys monitors to each CloudFoundry instance that applications report performance metrics to. The controller analyzes resource utilization across clouds and provides recommendations to scale applications by adding or removing instances. It enables applications to customize their own scaling characteristics based on workload thresholds.
Back to the Future: Current and Future Trends for AccessibilityJonathan Hassell
The document discusses the challenges of accessibility across different devices and platforms. It notes that most disabled users cannot afford or figure out how to use assistive technologies. The future of accessibility needs to be simple, flexible, context-aware and able to provide a joined-up experience across multiple devices. Standards have had successes but also gaps, and innovation is needed to make accessibility ubiquitous and ensure inclusion for all.
This chapter discusses perfect competition in markets. It begins by introducing lithium as an important input for batteries that has seen rising demand but falling prices. This is explained by the entry of new firms into the lithium industry. The chapter then outlines learning objectives and a chapter outline covering characteristics of perfect competition, how individual firms determine output levels, short-run profits, supply curves, and long-run equilibrium with entry and exit of firms. It also discusses how price is determined through the interaction of market supply and demand.
Firms face three main decisions: (1) quantity of output to supply, (2) production technique to use, and (3) quantity of inputs to demand. These decisions are based on the price of output, available production techniques, and input prices.
In the short run, firms have fixed costs that do not depend on output level. They also have variable costs that vary with output. Total cost is the sum of total fixed and total variable costs. Marginal cost is the change in total cost from producing one additional unit. It reflects changes in variable costs only. As a firm approaches its short-run capacity, marginal costs will ultimately increase with output.
