The history of Tibet and the development of Tibetan Buddhism have profoundly shaped Tibetan culture. Tibetan Buddhism was introduced in the 7th century and became the dominant religion. It later combined with politics when the Dalai Lama gained both religious and political power. After China's conquest in the 1950s, Tibetan culture faced challenges from policies aimed at weakening its religious foundations and shifting the culture. Tibetan Buddhism and its cultural practices like sky burials, prayer flags, and monastic life remain significant influences on Tibetan society, values, and identity.
This document provides information about two post-graduate diploma programs offered by MIT School of Distance Education:
1. Post Graduate Diploma in Business Administration (PGDBA). This two-year program equips students with leadership and management skills for careers in fields like marketing, finance, and human resources.
2. Post Graduate Diploma in Energy Management (PGDEM). This one-year program trains students to become energy managers and auditors to help organizations improve energy efficiency. It opens opportunities in utility management and energy-related government/non-profit roles.

The document provides steps to install WordPress on a local server using XAMPP. It involves downloading WordPress, extracting the files into the XAMPP htdocs directory and renaming the folder. A database called "test_db" should be created using phpMyAdmin. The wp-config.php file needs to be edited, defining the database name, username, and password. Once completed, visiting localhost will display the WordPress welcome screen.
The document discusses coding standards and tools for PHP code quality and formatting. It recommends using PHP Mess Detector (PHPMD) for naming conventions, size, complexity and other structural issues. PHP Code Sniffer (PHPCS) is recommended for whitespace and other easily fixable issues. The document demonstrates how to install and configure both tools, including generating ruleset files and integrating them into continuous integration to enforce code standards.

This document addresses several myths and facts regarding Roseville's ATPPS (Alternative Teacher Professional Pay System). It dispels myths such as ATPPS being a partisan conspiracy, resulting in huge additional meetings, or being forced upon teachers. It also clarifies facts such as ATPPS observations not being evaluative, most teachers finding value in ATPPS, and the potential long-term financial benefits through increased retirement benefits. Survey results from Roseville teachers found most felt students and their own instruction benefited from ATPPS work.
The history of Tibet had a significant impact on shaping Tibetan culture. Tibetan Buddhism became the dominant religion after it was introduced in the 7th century. Over time, religion and politics became intertwined as the Dalai Lama rose to power. When China conquered Tibet in the 1950s, it challenged Tibetan culture and religion but also invested in infrastructure to strengthen its control. Tibetan culture is now influenced by both religion and material interests.

The Field Studies Council anticipated savings of up to £100,000 per year by implementing Version One's document management system. Their previous manual invoice processing and payment system involved significant paper usage, data entry work, and costs. With Version One's system, invoices are now scanned and processed electronically at remote centers, approval and payments are automated, and remittances are digitally delivered, reducing costs by 90% while meeting payment terms. The organization expects to fully rollout the system across all 17 of its centers and integrate additional capabilities over time.

The Kwakiutl relied heavily on caribou for meat. The Nez Perce diet included roots, berries, and buffalo. The Hopi grew and consumed corn, squash, and bread made from cornmeal. The Seminole ate crops like corn, squash, beans and gathered shellfish, berries, nuts, and hunted deer and rabbit.
The document discusses the history and future of computers. It outlines some of the major developments in early computers from 1936 to the 1980s, including the invention of the first programmable computer by Konrad Zuse and the creation of the mouse and windows by Douglas Engelbart. It then describes some of the modern capabilities of computers like research, storing information, communication and entertainment. Finally, it speculates that future computers may be able to make decisions based on visual recognition through technologies like nanotechnology and artificial intelligence while decreasing in cost.
This document discusses how PowerPoint presentations can be misused by focusing too much on visuals, audio, and emotion rather than content. It questions why an audience would be there if the presenter relies solely on those techniques rather than conveying meaningful information. The document also touches on balancing high-level concepts with personal connections to keep an audience engaged.
