Crowdsourcing refers to obtaining needed services, ideas, or content by soliciting contributions from a large group of people, especially an online community, rather than from traditional employees or suppliers. This document discusses several common models of crowdsourcing including active and passive information collection, geolocated problem identification, microtasking, sniff tests, co-production, translation, and crowdfunding. The overall goal of the document is to introduce the concept of crowdsourcing and provide examples of how it has been implemented.

- NLMK's steel production was up 1% to 3.7 million tons, with a utilization rate of 94%.
- Steel sales increased 2% to 3.8 million tons, with higher sales in Russia and export markets.
- NLMK is focusing on efficiency improvements and cost reductions through optimization programs.
The document summarizes NLMK's Q2 2012 financial results, including a 5% increase in revenue to $3.257 billion and a 38% increase in EBITDA to $596 million. Steel output increased 6% to 3.843 million tons due to higher production at NLMK's main facilities. While demand grew in Russia, global steel markets remained weak during the quarter. NLMK expects to maintain flat steel output of around 3.8 million tons in Q3 2012.
NLMK is one of the largest steel producers in Russia and globally. In 2010, the company achieved record steel production of 11.5 million tonnes, a 9% increase over the previous year. Revenue increased 36% to $8.4 billion due to higher output and prices. NLMK maintains a vertically integrated business model controlling the entire production chain from mining raw materials to delivering finished steel products. This provides advantages such as raw material security and energy efficiency. The company aims to further increase self-sufficiency through projects to develop coking coal deposits.
This document discusses measuring the impact of open knowledge networks. It explores both quantitative metrics like data usability and quality as well as qualitative measures like anecdotes and understanding messages. Key challenges mentioned include measuring less tangible impacts and loyalty. The document provides recommendations to make measurement fit workflows and iterate based on failures. Tools and further reading on impact measurement for non-profits are also listed.
This document provides an overview of NLMK, a Russian steel producer. It discusses NLMK's profitability leadership position compared to Russian peers due to its balanced portfolio of assets in favorable locations, vertical integration, and diversified sales and product mix. The document also outlines NLMK's major production facilities in Russia and abroad, including details on current and planned capacities.
Conference call presentation with ceo and cfo 3 q 2012 us gaapSergey Takhiev
NLMK reported its Q3 and 9M 2012 results. Demand for steel declined internationally as utilization rates fell globally. Raw material prices decreased due to lower steel production. Steel prices continued to drop across all regions, though Russia was less impacted. Inventories remained low in developed economies and declined in China.
The document provides an overview of the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health, which aims to promote mental health in Texas. It acknowledges the graduate research assistants and policy fellow who helped update the guide. The foundation was established in 1940 by the children of former Texas governor James S. Hogg and has since awarded millions of dollars in grants to improve mental health services in the state. The guide is intended to help understand mental health systems and services in Texas.
The document discusses how social media is changing customer service and consumer expectations. It argues that companies need to shift from reactive to proactive engagement with customers on social media platforms. Rather than seeing it as a "killer app", companies should focus on listening to customers, analyzing social media data to understand issues, and applying lessons learned to continuously improve service quality and customer experience. The key is integrating social media engagement into existing customer service systems to provide a unified experience across channels.
NLMK: 12M 2012 and Q4 2012 US GAAP Financials Sergey Takhiev
- NLMK reported Q4 and full year 2012 results, with consolidated US GAAP results
- Steel demand weakened significantly in the second half of 2012 globally and in key markets like Europe and China, leading to price drops and inventory reductions
- For NLMK, crude steel production increased 25% in 2012 to nearly 15 million tons, though declined slightly in Q4. Sales also increased significantly for the full year but declined seasonally in Q4.
This document discusses the challenge of relevance in the digital age. It notes that social media usage is rising, with over half of adults now participating online in some way. It argues that people have become the "killer application" of the internet, and that businesses must recognize the impact of social media on customers, employees, and brands in order to remain relevant. It provides examples of how consumer opinions and feedback shared online can influence sales, employment decisions, and regulatory practices.
The document outlines a script for a chapter 17 video review involving characters representing different countries playing a game of Monopoly that parallels Manifest Destiny events from 1841-1848. As the game progresses, it prompts discussions of these historic events, such as the annexation of Texas, Oregon Treaty, and Mexican-American War. The script includes scenes of countries negotiating land disputes and declarations of war over territories. It concludes with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ending the Mexican-American War and acquisition of territory by the US.

NLMK Kaluga is a steel production facility located near Moscow that began construction in 2008. It has a planned annual steel production capacity of 1.5 million tons and will produce long steel products for the construction industry. The plant utilizes efficient production technologies and will help meet growing demand for construction steel in the central region of Russia, while also having competitive advantages from its location near scrap sources and customers. It is expected to begin full production in 2013.
The document discusses various aspects of social media including common misunderstandings around terminology, different types of social media strategies and services offered, measuring social media return on investment, isolating short and long term impacts, recognizing patterns, integrating social media into other channels like email and websites, creating and managing brand communities, running social media campaigns and ads, listening and responding to social conversations, using social internally, connecting content marketing to the sales cycle, identifying and engaging influencers, and the rise of mobile usage.

Een informatiebrochure over het beruchte kamp Auschwitz dient een drievoudig doel. Ten eerste biedt de vzw Auschwitz in Gedachtenis een gebruiksvriendelijk antwoord op de stijgende vraag van belangstellenden die Auschwitz op een ernstige manier wensen te bezoeken. Vervolgens willen we de deelnemers aan onze jaarlijkse studiereis compacte, maar toch vrij volledige informatie verstrekken. Tot slot merkten we dat er behoefte was aan een beknopte, maar professioneel uitgewerkte en geactualiseerde handleiding voor geïnteresseerden.
De brochure is didactisch van aard. Zij zal zowel de deelnemer aan de jaarlijkse studiereis als de individuele bezoeker van Auschwitz helpen een goed, overzichtelijk en volledig beeld te krijgen van de plek waar hij zich bevindt.
"En toen trokken we met ons gezin bij de bobonne in"Dirk Lagast
Zaterdag 24 september is het Wereld Dementiedag. Ingrid Vandamme zorgt al jaren voor haar inwonende moeder met dementie. Op dinsdag 20 september 2014 bracht ze haar aangrijpende getuigenis in Boekelberg, de gemeentelijke Nederlandstalige bibliotheek.
Schepen Dirk Lagast en zijn collega Véronique Capelle organiseerden er een namiddag rond het thema Alzheimer.
brOes (N) stelde er het Brussels Expertisecentrum Dementie voor en Arémis (F) had het over hun project dat thuiszorgt bevordert en de autonomie en levenskwaliteit van de patiënt en zijn verzorger verbetert.

Met een veertigtal aanwezigen was Boekelberg goed gevuld.
Alzheimer: spreek erover! parlons-en!
In een eerder artikel stelt Dhr. Jan Hertogen dat de UVW-WZ en de leefloners onder de jongeren van 15 tot 24 jaar samen het laagste peil ooit bereiken. Dhr. Pestieau (PVDA) zegt hierover dat deze daling niet gecompenseerd wordt door tewerkstelling of een verhoging van het aandeel studenten.
Dhr. Jan Hertogen maakt daarentegen, verder in het artikel, een onderscheid tussen het aantal studenten en de andere niet-actieven. Aan de hand van de EAK-gegevens toont hij aan dat het aantal studenten wel degelijk gestegen is.
Jongeren met recht op een werkloosheidsuitkering of leefloon (RVA en POD Maatschappelijke Integratie)
Uit de analyse van de gegevens van de RVA (zie tabel 1 in het Excel-bestand bijlage) blijkt dat het aantal UVW-WZ jonger dan 25 jaar in 2015 ten opzichte van 2010 met 4.073 eenheden is gedaald, ofwel met 50,0%. Daarentegen is het aantal leefloners, volgens de gegevens van de POD Maatschappelijke Integratie voor dezelfde periode gestegen met 2.776 eenheden (ofwel met 38,4%). Indien men de evolutie van beide categorieën samen beschouwt over de periode 2010-2015, dan stellen we effectief vast dat het aantal jongeren (<25 jaar) met een werkloosheidsuitkering of leefloon gedaald is met 1.297 eenheden (ofwel -8,4%).

Na zich meer dan vier decennia volop ingezet te hebben voor de ACOD, gaat eind september ACOD-voorzitter Karel Stessens met pensioen. Een afscheidsinterview én een blik vooruit.
Karel Stessens werd lid van onze vakbond in 1972 en klom gestaag op in de structuren om uiteindelijk ook (de eerste Vlaamse) federale voorzitter te worden – een bekroning van zijn werk. Samen met Karel kijken we terug op de hoogte- en dieptepunten van zijn carrière én we blikken vooruit. Wat brengt de (nabije) toekomst en wat kunnen vroegere periodes ons daarbij leren?

L’ignoble attaque meurtrière contre le journal
satyrique CHARLIE HEBDO de ce mercredi
7 janvier 2015 à Paris est une catastrophe pour la
liberté d’expression universelle.
L’assassinat d’écrivains, de dessinateurs, de
penseurs et de philosophes comme Wolinski,
Charb, Cabu, Tignous, Honoré, Maris, tous un par
un des êtres exceptionnels, intelligents, ouverts,
tolérants, drôles et joyeusement irrespectueux est
un drame pour la libre pensée et la liberté
d’opinion.
C’est notre façon de vivre, libre, responsable et
émancipée que des fanatiques intolérants,
stupides, sadiques et violents veulent détruire.
Jamais nous n’accepterons cette abomination que
sont l’obscurantisme religieux, le fanatisme et
l’intolérance qui conduisent à l’esclavage de la

Il nous faut surmonter l’horreur et la détresse.

De laffe moordaanslag tegen het satirische
weekblad CHARLIE HEBDO op woensdag
7 januari 2015 in Parijs betekent een regelrechte
ramp voor de vrije meningsuiting wereldwijd.
De moord op schrijvers, tekenaars, denkers en
filosofen als Wolinski, Charb, Cabu, Tignous,
Honoré, Maris is een drama voor het vrije
denken en de vrijheid van meningsuiting. Het
waren stuk voor stuk uitzonderlijke, begaafde,
tolerante mensen met een open geest, die met
hun humor geen heilige huisjes ontzagen.
Het is onze levenswijze gebaseerd op vrijheid,
verantwoordelijkheidszin en emancipatie die
deze intolerante, stompzinnige, sadistische
fanatieke geweldenaars willen kapotmaken.
Wij zullen nooit de gruwel aanvaarden van
godsdienstig obscurantisme, fanatisme en
intolerantie die leiden tot de verknechting van
de gedachten en het woord.
Wij moeten boven deze gruwel staan en ons niet
laten meeslepen door emotie.
Democratie en vrije meningsuiting zijn de
fundamentele waarden die onontbeerlijk zijn
voor een waardig en gelukkig bestaan.
Wij moeten deze krachtdadig en vastberaden
blijven verdedigen.
