The New Hampshire Charter School Program has four primary objectives: 1) To increase the number of high-quality charter schools, especially those serving disadvantaged students. 2) To improve achievement and graduation rates of secondary charter school students. 3) To disseminate best practices of charter schools. 4) To empower charter schools to become strong independent organizations and support fiscal responsibility. Charter schools can be authorized locally or by the state board of education. Federal Charter School Program grants support planning, design, and initial implementation of new charter schools. New Hampshire prioritizes funding for schools serving at-risk students from low-performing districts.

Grandma found a magical peach that contained a baby boy named Momotaro. Momotaro set off with a dog and monkey to defeat demons that were terrorizing villages. They joined forces with a pheasant and were able to defeat the demons' leader, retrieving treasure before happily returning to their village.
The document summarizes the 2008 outlook for the US real estate market. It predicts that capital flows to real estate will significantly decrease from record levels in 2006-2007 due to tighter lending standards. Pricing for most properties declined 5-10% from mid-2007 to early 2008 and is expected to fall further as capital flows decrease and interest rates rise. Total returns from real estate are forecast to be 6-8% in 2008, down from 14% in 2007, as values adjust downward. However, core real estate purchased in early 2008 is predicted to achieve unleveraged annual returns of 7.5-8%. Overall, the market is undergoing a period of adjustment after several years of outsized gains fueled by abundant capital
This document discusses using a baseline grid technique in CSS and HTML to improve web typography and readability. It provides instructions on how to structure the HTML with div wrappers and floated columns. It also explains how to set the line heights and margins of various page elements according to the baseline grid to maintain proper vertical rhythm throughout the page. Code examples are included to demonstrate how to apply the necessary CSS styles.
The document summarizes risk stratification scores for transient ischemic attack (TIA). The ABCD3-I score stratifies risk of stroke recurrence within 90 days into low risk (0-3 points), intermediate risk (4-7 points), and high risk (>8-13 points). The ABCD2 score further stratifies 2-day and 90-day risk of stroke based on age, blood pressure, clinical features, duration of symptoms, and diabetes. The ABCD2-I score adds points for acute infarction seen on MRI or CT imaging.
This document summarizes an experiment that tested how the frequency of vowels in different contexts affects listeners' perceptual compensation for coarticulation. Participants were exposed to speech stimuli that varied the frequency of vowels before /i/ or /a/. Their ability to compensate for coarticulation on a vowel identification task was then tested. The results showed that perceptual compensation was affected by the relative frequency of vowels in different contexts, either being exaggerated or ameliorated depending on the exposure condition. This suggests frequency information influences speech perception and could lead to systematic sound changes through misperception over time.

This document provides guidelines for starting up and operating mechanically sealed equipment. It outlines separate procedures for single inside seals and dual pressurized seals. The key steps for single inside seals are to gradually heat or cool the equipment if needed, open the suction valve fully, start the pump with the discharge valve partially closed and then open it gradually. For dual pressurized seals, it emphasizes ensuring adequate barrier fluid supply and pressure before starting the pump. Proper operation requires monitoring for leaks or other issues and keeping the suction valve fully open.
Los símbolos patrios del Perú como la bandera, el escudo y el himno nacional se crearon durante la lucha por la independencia en la década de 1820. La bandera actual data de 1822 y consiste en franjas verticales rojas a los lados y blanca en el medio, mientras que el escudo contiene símbolos representando la riqueza animal, vegetal y mineral del país. El himno nacional fue escrito en 1821 por José de la Torre Ugarte con música de José Bernardo Alcedo.
Quantification of ica stenosis(정혜선) 20110331chs1028
This document discusses various methods for quantifying internal carotid artery stenosis using duplex ultrasound. It describes using B-mode imaging to visualize carotid plaques and color flow imaging to identify the residual lumen and adjust the Doppler angle. Angle-corrected Doppler velocimetry measures peak systolic velocity, which is inversely related to the residual lumen radius and stenosis length. Ratios of internal to common carotid artery velocities are also used, with different standards from NASCET versus ECST angiographic studies. The recommendations are to measure peak systolic velocity in the internal carotid artery and velocity ratios of internal to common carotid arteries.

The document discusses compensation in start-up companies from both the employer and employee perspective. It notes that start-ups need to attract motivated and dedicated employees through intrinsic and extrinsic rewards like stock options, benefits, and competitive pay. A case study of JetBlue is presented as a company that succeeded by offering market-matched compensation including benefits, profit sharing, and stock options to motivate employees.
This document discusses start-up costs and capital sources for new businesses. It notes that businesses need adequate cash investments for fixed capital like equipment and working capital to cover day-to-day expenses until becoming profitable. Common sources of capital include personal funds, bank loans, equity investors, and government programs. The document provides examples of typical start-up cost categories and advises entrepreneurs to thoroughly understand their financial needs and options before launching a new business.

1) Speaker recognition uses characteristics extracted from voices to validate a user's claimed identity. It recognizes who is speaking, whereas speech recognition recognizes what is being said.
2) Speaker recognition technologies have evolved alongside speech recognition and synthesis since the 1960s as researchers have studied vocal tract physiology and developed systems to analyze speech acoustics and match samples to templates.
3) Speaker recognition systems extract features from speech like duration, pitch, and intensity to generate likelihood ratios comparing a sample to the claimed identity versus other speakers. Updates help models cope with voice changes over time.

The document discusses the University of Wisconsin-Madison's initiatives to support new business startups, including resources provided through various university organizations. It notes that UW-Madison has helped create over 70,000 jobs in the region and highlights some successful startup companies that originated from the university. The university takes an active "hands-on" role in assisting with startup formation and operations through organizations like the Office of Corporate Relations and WARF.
This document summarizes the history and arguments regarding single-sex education. It discusses how single-sex schools were once common but declined after the 1970s due to laws prohibiting sex-based segregation in public schools. However, changes to laws and perceived achievement gaps have renewed interest in single-sex classrooms. Supporters argue it can benefit students, but critics worry it promotes segregation. Overall, more research is still needed to determine its effectiveness.
Mac OS X Snow Leopard introduces Stacks, which allow users to view and access files and applications directly from the Dock. Stacks automatically organize their contents in a fan or grid based on item number, and users can customize sort order and view style. Common file folders like Documents, Downloads, and Applications are set up as stacks by default for convenient access to recent items without opening additional windows.
