The document summarizes the key similarities found in four romantic drama film trailers. All feature two people falling in love but facing obstacles like tragedy, death or family disapproval. Each trailer establishes the location with shots and includes diegetic music, either orchestral or piano, representing both the romance and sadness of the relationship. Two trailers involve the female leads cheating on their fiancés with the male protagonist. Voiceovers often explain the story and action on screen.

The ABC classroom is planning a field trip to visit a large traveling map of Africa currently on display at the local library. Teachers have been discussing Africa during circle time and think the map exhibit would complement their lessons. Parents are asked to email the teachers their availability for a Friday evening or Saturday morning tour and indicate their preferred time so arrangements can be made. Additional information about Africa and the map was provided to parents.

At 7:02 pm, 31 October 2013, a magnitude 6.3 earthquake occurred 45 km (28 miles) south-southwest of the coastal city of Hualian. The shallow depth of 12 km (7.5 mi) exacerbated the ground shaking. Buildings over a wide area, including Taipei, the capital city, were shaken. A note from the past: A magnitude 7.6 earthquake in central Taiwan in 1999 killed 2,416 people. Each earthquake is an opportunity to add to the “global book of knowledge” on occurrences, consequences, and disaster risk reduction measures

Las patentes sirven para ganar dinero explotando una invención en exclusiva, transfiriendo los derechos de exclusiva a un tercero mediante una venta o licencia, o de forma indirecta a través del prestigio, marketing u obtención de subvenciones. Sin embargo, una patente por sí sola no garantiza ganar dinero; se requiere una estrategia y capacidad para llevar la invención al mercado. El documento analiza los pasos para desarrollar una patente y obtener valor a través de su explotación comercial.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
1) The story of the 47 Ronin, known as Chushingura, originated from an actual historical incident in 1701 and early kabuki plays dramatizing this story.
2) Over time, the Chushingura story developed a double identity as both a stage tradition and commemoration of a real historical event. Prints in the 19th century referenced both the theater performances and the original incident.
3) This duality is also seen in the theater through the concept of the "sekai" or world, which drew on older stories to provide context while also allowing discussion of forbidden topics through this fictional framework.

The overarching purpose of this strategy is to ensure our procurement activities are undertaken consistently to a high standard, efficiently and economically whilst helping achieve economic, social and environmental benefits for all our communities.
The strategy is accordingly aligned with the strategic aims and objectives of the partner organisations.
The status and importance of procurement in the public sector continues to grow and there is increasing pressure to improve procurement performance for a number of reasons.
Most importantly:
• procurement has a critical role to play in delivering strategic objectives and improving the quality of services delivered to the public
• savings realised through improved procurement can be channelled into priority services or reducing each partners net capital and/or revenue expenditure
• local authorities are open to legal challenge under public procurement regulations (based on EU directives) and are accountable for achieving value for money.
• local government is under increasing pressure to deliver services in the face of reduced funding from central government. Effective procurement is one of the key ways to achieve “more with less”
This strategy will help make sure:
Procurement and Contract Management Strategy-1.docxMy own
Procurement and contract management strategy GO Shared Services partners recognise that public procurement needs to concentrate much more of its attention on market and supplier management, and ensuring the contract itself is properly managed, and that the approach to the procurement process needs to be simplified.
We are therefore developing a common approach to achieve effective procurement across all partners by focusing on activities which lead to financial savings and improved practices. These include a common Procurement Strategy; standardised processes, documentation, intranet and internet publications and shared supplier master file with the aim of making it easier to engage with, and improve the experience for all our suppliers especially Small and Medium Enterprises
(SME’s).
We understand that best value and efficiency targets will not be achieved unless all the partners approach competition and procurement positively to deliver good quality, value for money services to our communities. The partners have a have a duty to make sure this spending represents value for money.
The partners seek opportunities for innovation and partnerships which are available from working with others in the public, private and voluntary sectors to balance two clear priorities:
• Delivering efficiencies and quality
• Developing and embracing socially responsible and sustainable procurement, by engaging with local and regional suppliers to promote the local economy and taking account of the social, economic and environmental impact of spending decisions

The Construction Industry Institute (CII) defines AWP as “the overall process flow of all the
detailed work packages (construction, engineering, and installation work packages). AWP
is a planned, executable process that encompasses the work on an EPC project, beginning
with the initial planning and continuing through detailed design and construction
execution. AWP provides the framework for productive and progressive construction and
presumes the existence of a construction execution plan.”

Programme Acceptance
It is important to first explain the key differences in Programme Acceptance between NEC3 and NEC4 Contract Types.
As covered in our past article, within NEC3 in the absence of a Project Manager’s response, the contract provided that the programme was simply ‘not accepted’, putting all the risk onto the Contractor in allowing the Project Manager to to withhold 25% of the price of work done to date if the Contractor does not provide a programme in accordance with Cl.31.
Within NEC4 the position is improved and the contract includes a provision whereby in the absence of a Project Manager’s response to the submitted programme within two weeks, the Contractor can serve notice of a further week. After this, if there is still no response then the contractor’s programme is ‘deemed accepted’ under the contract.

The Sidra Medicine hospital in Doha, Qatar was designed to set new standards for healthcare environments. It features distinctive glass and tile cladding and interior atriums separating different sections. Communication between the project team, based in multiple countries, was crucial during design and construction. The 400,000 square meter facility focuses on women's and children's health and has attracted top medical talent from around the world. It was completed on schedule in 2017 without any lost-time injuries during over 50 million work hours.
