The document discusses oral history and collective memory in the context of ghost stories from residents of a hidden location in Mumbai. Several residents share common stories about the building being haunted and strange occurrences over generations. During initial interviews, some people claimed that many victims of communal riots in 1942 and 1992 were buried beneath the building, but later denied knowing about the 1942 riots or being affected in 1992. The area did experience turbulence in the 1992 riots. The document aims to get more resident accounts and analyze how many people claim to have directly experienced strange things versus just hearing stories.

Hauntings And Collective Memory In A Mumbai Housing
The document discusses oral history and collective memory in the context of ghost stories from residents of a hidden location in Mumbai. Several residents share common stories about the building being haunted and strange occurrences over generations. During initial interviews, some people claimed that many were killed in riots in 1942 and 1992 and buried beneath the building, but later denied knowledge of the 1942 riots or being affected in 1992. The area did experience turbulence in the 1992 communal riots. The document aims to get more resident accounts and analyze how many have personally experienced strange things versus just heard stories.
Memory of the events and events of the memory: how the Net can change our way...
This document discusses how the internet can shape collective memory formation around traumatic events. It uses the 2009 earthquake in Abruzzi, Italy as a case study. The author conducted qualitative analysis of Facebook groups and posts about the earthquake. The results showed that the internet served as a space for victims, witnesses, and outside observers to share stories, photos and discuss their experiences. However, the fragmented digital narratives on the internet risk being ephemeral and becoming forgotten over time.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

The term "internet of things", loosely defined as a world where physical objects are seamlessly integrated into the information network, and where the physical objects can become active participants in business processes has gained popularity in recent years.
The talk will describe the case study of a small but visionary power management company in the Carolinas, which is building the next generation of a smart enterprise. An enterprise modeled on an event driven architecture which can sense and respond to stimuli faster than the competition.
Achieving the vision has required our team to use a combination of data warehousing, decision management and analytics. Come learn
about the vision, the challenges and also the business drivers for making this ambitious project a reality.

Collective Memory Power Pointfor Spanish Lesson
The document discusses collective memory and metacognition. It provides Spanish translations of English words related to subjects like history, biology, technology, and religion. It then asks questions about how a task was completed and how a group worked together. Finally, it lists characteristics of identifying successful thinking, such as linking strategies together and being aware of how a plan may have evolved.

Collective Memory building in Wikipedia: the case of North African uprisings
Paper presented at Wikisym 2011, 7th International Symposium on Wikis and Open Collaboration
Read the paper at http://www.gnuband.org/papers/collective_memory_building_in_wikipedia_the_case_of_north_african_uprisings/
Authors: Michela Ferron, Paolo Massa
Abstract:
Since December 2010, a series of protests and uprisings have shocked North African countries such as Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Yemen and more. In this paper, focusing mainly on the Egyptian revolution, we provide evidence of the intense edit activity occurred during these uprisings on the related Wikipedia
pages. Thousands of people provided their contribution on the content pages and discussed improvements and disagreements on the associated talk pages as the traumatic events unfolded. We
propose to interpret this phenomenon as a process of collective memory building and argue how on Wikipedia this can be studied empirically and quantitatively in real time. We explore and suggest possible directions for future research on collective memory formation of traumatic and controversial events in Wikipedia.
Wel come to nepal copy
Nepal is a landlocked country located in South Asia between China and India. It has a population of over 26 million people from over 100 ethnic groups who speak over 90 languages. Nepali and English are the official languages. Hinduism and Buddhism are the main religions practiced in Nepal. Notable symbols of Nepal include the red, blue, and white flag with the Nepali map and the national bird Danfe. Nepal has diverse geography from the Himalayan mountains to hills and plains. Tourism is a large part of Nepal's economy, with activities like trekking, mountain flights, and bungee jumping. Culture is influenced by religion and festivals are celebrated throughout the year.
Urban Areas: Policy, Planning and Zoning Recommendations
This document provides policy recommendations for urban areas based on a survey of images related to development. Key recommendations include rehabilitating existing buildings, developing infill housing and commercial spaces, improving streetscapes with sidewalks and parks, and increasing transit, biking, and pedestrian connections. The highest rated images focused on creating urban plazas, rehabilitating housing and streets, and developing neighborhood parks. The lowest rated images showed large surface parking lots, and the document states these areas have the greatest potential for redevelopment. Simulated images of redevelopment options were also analyzed to help identify preferred development patterns.
Elements of urban design
Urban design can significantly impact the economic, environmental, social, and cultural outcomes of a place. It influences factors like local business success, housing costs, transportation access, and how people interact. Key elements of urban design include buildings, public spaces, streets, transportation systems, and landscape features. Buildings define the streetscape while public spaces are where people come together. Streets connect places and their design impacts walkability. Transportation networks enable movement throughout the city. Landscape provides green spaces that enhance character and beauty.
