The Arthur Morgan Institute for Community Solutions promotes lifestyle changes in the areas of food, housing and transportation to address the twin challenges of Peak Oil and climate change.
The document discusses the lack of gender diversity in senior leadership roles in Canadian corporations despite 25 years of focus on advancing women. While women make up 48% of the workforce, only 36.5% of lower managers, less than 18% of top executives, less than 14% of boards, and 6% of CEOs are women. This lack of diversity represents a competitive disadvantage as research shows the most successful companies have diverse leadership that incorporates multiple perspectives. The authors argue that true change requires leadership that values diversity and holds teams accountable through transparent processes rather than just counting women or focusing on tactics. Leaders must uncover and address underlying biases to create lasting cultural change at all levels of an organization.
The survey found that while project management has gained acceptance in the legal industry, it still faces many obstacles. While only 2.5% of firms reported not practicing any project management, over a third of respondents did not fully understand basic concepts. Most firms do not have a formal PMO, and those that do typically have between 2-5 full-time staff and have been established for less than 5 years. The survey aimed to assess the current state of project management and identify remaining challenges.

The document discusses a proposed approach called Capital Optimisation, Stability and Control (COSC) for managing bank capital. COSC aims to optimize retained portfolio capital, stabilize capital levels, enhance business franchises, buffer balance sheets, recycle credit, and ensure tight governance. It involves optimizing credit valuation adjustments, derivative risk equivalents, and adjusted loss equivalents across business cycles. Implementing COSC could generate trading revenue and leverage business franchises while improving management controls and compliance. The team behind COSC has a track record of success in major institutions developing key risk management techniques.
El treball a l'hort durant l'hivern, continuem tenint problemes amb els rosegadors, segurament els talpons. Decidim fer trampes per agafar-ne, però ells continuen treballant.
Finalment trobem la solució.
This document discusses materials, properties, and the states of matter. It defines a material as being made up of tiny particles. Properties tell us something about what a material is like, such as being hard, soft, shiny or rough. Solids keep their shape unless cut or shaped, with particles tightly packed. Liquids are runny and can be poured, with particles less tightly packed and able to move. Gases have particles with lots of room to move freely and spread into empty spaces, often being invisible. An example given is water, which can be a solid (ice), liquid (water), or gas (steam) depending on temperature.

2. • He escollit aquest
invent per ajudar a la
gent, que té problemes
d’esquena, a fer el llit.
• Aquest llit es pot
abaixar o apujar a la
mida de la persona que
l’ha de fer, de manera
que no s’hagi d’ajupir.
3. • Està construït amb
fustes, ferros i
cargols.
• Només hi ha una
màquina simple
que és la palanca,
que ajuda a pujar o
baixar el llit sense
fer esforç.
4. • Consta d’una fusta ampla i llarga (que representa el
sunyer). Per sota té uns ferros que aguanten les
quatre potes, dues per banda, enganxades per
cargols , de manera que permeten que quan s’aixequi
el llit, la gent gran o gent que té problemes
d’esquena, no s’hagin d’ajupir i no els costi fer el llit.
