Its already 2011, the fifth year of the social media revolution and while there is so much new to talk about that’s new, when talking about the context of communications there are a lot of constants that remain the same.
Getting the right content to the right people at the right times on the right platforms. This is just common sense and best practice. But social media like any disruptive platform has forced marketers to rethink their media mix and as they do some have forgotten these best practices.
2010: Multiple Platforms, Infinite Choices
Digital marketing in Asia Pacific in 2010 offers an almost infinite combination of ways to engage customers, participate in their communities, sell them products and services, and build brands and corporate reputations. Content can be highly personalised, relevant and localised deeply to take into account factors such as language, location, time of day, past behaviour and stated preferences. The range of available media is staggering, value-priced, and offers exceptional targeting. And this year the true "internet experience in the palm of your hand" is now available in many urban centres across the region, thanks to the spread of smartphones, 3G networks, and the applications that run on them.

Bluewolf | The State of Salesforce 2012Taura Edgar
The objective when implementing or innovating on Salesforce is typically to drive business value and improve performance, not just to get more employees to use the system. Some key ways to measure adoption that are aligned with business objectives include:
- Revenue/sales generated through Salesforce
- Customer satisfaction and retention metrics
- Operational KPIs like lead conversion rates, issue resolution times
- Employee productivity metrics
- Usage analytics to understand which features drive the most value
The goal of adoption metrics should be to understand how Salesforce is impacting important business outcomes, not just how many logins or clicks there are. This helps justify ongoing investment and ensure resources are focused on the areas providing the best returns.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
