Success depends on the number of people who are convinced by your vision and ready to follow and execute your ideas. The more people who follow you, the more successful you are likely to be, from thousands of followers for organization leaders to millions for social and political leaders. To be successful, learn how to convince others to follow you by understanding what people value and satisfying them.
The document provides tips for writing successful grant and award applications in 3 sentences or less:
Use an inverted pyramid structure with conclusions first followed by details, keep paragraphs to one point each, and use informative headings to draw attention to important information. Highlight what makes your application stand out from others and provide evidence to support all claims. Follow the specific criteria of the grant or award you are applying for.
Professor Darryn McEvoy leads the Climate Change Adaptation Program at RMIT University and is Deputy Director of the Victorian Centre for Climate Change Adaptation Research. The presentation outlines climate change impacts including increased temperatures, changes in rainfall and drought, and rising sea levels. It discusses research at RMIT and VCCCAR on adapting infrastructure, emergency management, climate resilient development, and indigenous knowledge. Challenges include uncertainty and multiple hazards, but opportunities exist to develop new technologies, markets, and flexible management approaches through iterative learning and new partnerships.
This document describes a web-based utility management system called HydroShare. It allows users to monitor water, gas, and electricity consumption via the internet. It connects to various meters and data loggers using 3G, GPRS, or satellite. It stores large amounts of usage data and provides alarming notifications via SMS, email, or SCADA. Key benefits include easy online access to site data, automatic report generation, and flexibility for both utility providers and customers to access information. It can be used for applications like irrigation, industry, recreation, institutions, and trade waste monitoring.
Yarra Valley Water is proposing a stormwater harvesting and reuse project in Coburg, an identified Principal Activity Centre under Melbourne's 2030 growth strategy. The project would harvest stormwater from two existing drains using underground tanks, treat it to recycled water standards using an ultra-filtration plant, and reticulate the recycled water to new homes and apartments in the area for non-potable use as well as nearby public spaces for irrigation. This would substitute 213 ML of potable water per year, improve stormwater quality, and reduce urban runoff to local waterways. Construction is slated to begin in August 2011 following further planning and design work.

El GPS es un sistema de posicionamiento global formado por una constelación de 24 satélites que emiten señales para indicar su posición y hora atómica. Receptores GPS en la Tierra pueden usar estas señales de al menos tres satélites para calcular la posición del receptor con poca imprecisión. El sistema es propiedad del gobierno de EE. UU. y se usa para aplicaciones como navegación, agricultura de precisión y seguimiento.
This document provides an overview of statistics as a branch of mathematics dealing with the collection, organization, and analysis of numerical data to aid decision making. It discusses the history of basic statistical methods dating back to ancient civilizations, and outlines common statistical methods like collecting primary and secondary data, tabulating and presenting data, calculating measures of central tendency and variability, using graphs to visualize data, and determining correlation between variables. The goal of statistics is to accurately represent large data sets and analyze relationships within the data.

Explica que con el surgimiento del mercado virtual surgió una nueva categoría de contratos electrónicos y que varios países están creando marcos normativos para regular las transacciones comerciales electrónicas y dar seguridad a las relaciones jurídicas en línea. También menciona que algunos países ya tienen leyes que regulan el comercio electrónico y la firma digital.
Darryn McEvoy – Climate Change – the great contemporary dilemma NEXTDC
Professor Darryn McEvoy leads the Climate Change Adaptation Program at RMIT University and is Deputy Director of the Victorian Centre for Climate Change Adaptation Research. The presentation outlines climate change impacts including increased temperatures, changes in rainfall and drought patterns, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather events. It discusses distinguishing between climate change mitigation and adaptation agendas. The presentation also reviews research being conducted at RMIT and through the Victorian Centre focusing on impacts to infrastructure, emergency management, urban development, and engaging indigenous communities. Challenges of coping with uncertainty and opportunities to improve decision-making through tools and an iterative learning process are discussed.

The Cuyahoga County Board of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities is encouraging donations of used computers through their CHIP (Computers Helping Inspire People) program, which provides computers to individuals with developmental disabilities while also allowing the donation to be claimed as a tax deduction. Donating computers helps the environment by diverting them from landfills and benefits those with developmental disabilities by giving them access to technology.
Tras la Revolución de Octubre de 1917, se creó la Unión de Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas (URSS) en 1922, que se convirtió en una gran potencia industrial bajo el régimen totalitario de Stalin. Aunque la desestalinización comenzó tras su muerte en 1953, la economía soviética enfrentaba graves problemas que llevaron a las reformas de perestroika y glasnost bajo Gorbachov en la década de 1980.

Este documento contiene una colección de fotos familiares y documentos de entre 1910 y 1965 de la bisabuela, abuelos y madre del autor, incluyendo fotos de la primera comunión, servicio militar y estudio de los familiares, así como un permiso de viaje del bisabuelo y una postal enviada durante el servicio militar.
El documento resume los principales movimientos artísticos del siglo XIX como el romanticismo, el realismo, el impresionismo y el modernismo. El romanticismo se caracterizó por exaltar los sentimientos individuales y la naturaleza. El realismo buscó reflejar la realidad de la época, incluyendo temas sociales. El impresionismo se enfocó en captar las sensaciones visuales y la luz. El modernismo se inspiró en la naturaleza y buscó fusionar arte y vida cotidiana, destacando la obra de Antonio Gaudí
