The document discusses how Orbitz Worldwide integrated Hadoop into its enterprise data infrastructure to handle large volumes of web analytics and transactional data. Some key points:
- Orbitz used Hadoop to store and analyze large amounts of web log and behavioral data to improve services like hotel search. This allowed analyzing more data than their previous 2-week data archive.
- They faced initial resistance but built a Hadoop cluster with 200TB of storage to enable machine learning and analytics applications.
- The challenges now are providing analytics tools for non-technical users and further integrating Hadoop with their existing data warehouse.
The document shares several quotes from the Prophet Muhammad emphasizing the importance of obeying Allah and following the teachings of the Quran. It cautions that those who do not respect their parents, take full advantage of Ramadan, or say blessings when the Prophet is mentioned will be cursed. It also warns that women who do not dress modestly or flirt with men other than their husbands will not enter heaven. The document encourages readers to share it with others and take a moment to pray and appreciate Allah's power in their lives.
22. TCI Climate of the Nation Flagship Report 2012Richard Plumpton
This document summarizes the findings of a report on Australian attitudes toward climate change in 2012. It was conducted through focus groups and surveys between April and May 2012, a time of highly politicized debate around climate change policies in Australia. The research found that Australians were uncertain about the science of climate change, unconvinced by carbon pricing solutions due to fears over rising costs of living, and had lost confidence in experts and governments on the issue. However, attitudes remained fluid and could still be influenced on both the reality and solutions regarding climate change.

The Husky Helpers, a group of students from MEHMS, offer assistance with tasks around the home and provide contact information for requesting help. They encourage community members to share ideas to improve local clubs and the community on their website. The students can help with various existing clubs and provide photos of the types of tasks they are willing to assist with, such as yardwork, cleaning, and transportation.

The document is a report from the European Commission and Economic Policy Committee projecting the economic and budgetary impact of aging populations in EU member states from 2010-2060. It finds that aging will significantly increase public spending on pensions and healthcare. Labor force growth will slow and the ratio of retirees to workers will rise, posing economic and fiscal challenges. Productivity increases will need to offset declining employment levels to maintain GDP growth. The projections provide policymakers long-term forecasts to help address the fiscal sustainability risks that aging populations bring.
This document discusses finding information through various sources such as search engines, libraries, and Wikipedia. It provides tips for using tools like Google, OPAC catalogs, and keywords to locate helpful websites. The homework assignment asks students to search for a website to answer their research questions and add the address to their project, excluding Wikipedia. Key points about information sources like OPACs showing available materials, Google allowing refined searches, and Wikipedia not verifying all additions are reviewed.
The document provides an informal quiz with multiple choice and descriptive questions about famous people, events, movies, and more. Some questions identify Amrish Puri, Milton Glaser, Krav Maga, Pele, Sachin Tendulkar, Sherlock Holmes, the Egypt Revolution, Mars, Bollywood adaptations of Shakespeare plays, Geronimo, the non-human avatars of Vishnu, the voice of Howard's mom in The Big Bang Theory, and more.

Omiros' talk on the Bernoulli factory problemBigMC
This document summarizes previous work on simulating events of unknown probability using reverse time martingales. It discusses von Neumann's solution to the Bernoulli factory problem where f(p)=1/2. It also summarizes the Keane-O'Brien existence result, the Nacu-Peres Bernstein polynomial approach, and issues with implementing the Nacu-Peres algorithm at large n due to the large number of strings involved. It proposes developing a reverse time martingale approach to address these issues.
1. The document outlines an approach to compliance management that includes establishing standards and guidance, managing assets and their certification, conducting audits, and reporting.
