Baltimore City Schools presented an update on graduating seniors' progress towards meeting the new state graduation requirement to pass the High School Assessments (HSAs) or complete Bridge Projects. Most seniors are on track to graduate, with 81% passing the HSAs by March and 87% of students completing Bridge Projects successfully. The district has implemented interventions like tutoring, monitored Bridge Projects, and established an HSA waiver process. Next steps include targeting support to schools with most students still needing to pass and setting up summer programs for at-risk 11th graders.
A very interesting read, a unanimous decision (of conservative-appointed judges) throwing out law banning gay marriage as unconstitutional. Both sides of the issue are clearly eloquated by opposing parties - I'm biased but the opposing sides arguments are starting to appear dated, not backed by evidence or sciense or research, and increasingly desparate.

The document describes the history surrounding the succession of leadership following the death of the Prophet Muhammad. It tells of the divisions that emerged between those who supported Abu Bakr and those who believed Ali bin Abi Talib should have led as he was appointed by the Prophet. Over time different groups formed, including the Sunnis who followed the elected caliphs, and the Shias who believed in the divine authority of the Imams descended from Ali and Fatima. The letter aims to promote unity among Muslims and a return to the original message of the Prophet.

3G networks use Internet Protocol instead of traditional circuit switches used in 2G networks. The document then discusses the evolution of wireless networks from 0G to 2G. It notes that 3G networks are expensive to deploy and use, with costs ranging from $50-300 per month for plans. The document concludes that 4G networks will offer faster speeds of 100Mbps-1Gbps compared to 2-14Mbps for 3G, as well as improved capabilities, coverage, and efficiency.
Working with micro-services is arguably the best part of OSGi development. However, everyone agrees that tracking service dependencies with the bare-bones OSGi API is not ideal. So, you pick one of the available dependency managers: either Declarative Services, Felix Dependency manager, Blueprint or iPojo.
But how do you pick the right one? Easy! After this shoot-out you’ll know all about the performance, usability and other aspects of the existing dependency managers. We show the strengths and weaknesses of the implementations side-by-side. How usable is the API? What about performance, does it scale beyond trivial amounts of services? Does it matter which OSGi framework you run the dependency manager in?
Make up your mind with the facts presented in this session.

Plagiarism in the Digital Age: Voices from the Front Lines
What's Happening on College Campuses Today?
A 75-minute Virtual Conference Series of moderated online panel discussions
Plagiarism is a growing concern and a hot topic in the academic community. Many time-pressured students rely on the internet to locate convenient sources to fulfill their writing assignments, sometimes committing cut-and-paste plagiarism. College faculty, administrators and students believe that the online environment encourages cheating, and are looking for the best ways to encourage students' original work while helping them become better writers.
Please make plans to participate in this important online discussion. You’ll hear from a panel of leading experts who will share their experiences from the front lines of the digital plagiarism issue. You’ll have an opportunity to submit questions to the panel, plus you’ll have access to a range of “best practice” online resources you can use immediately.

Air barrier paper allows air and water vapor to pass through but not liquid water. Attic ventilation allows water vapor to escape and keeps attics cooler in summer. Batter boards are frames outside excavation corners that mark surface planes. Concrete joints include control joints that form planned cracks and isolation joints that separate concrete from other materials. Insulation materials include batts/blankets and rigid foam boards that reduce heat flow. Mortar can be troweled or tooled onto masonry units.
A rich interconnect web of currencies could be used to provide incentives and discounts for positive behaviors like using public transportation, recycling, exercising, and sharing resources with others. People may receive tax breaks, lower loan rates, or discounts on insurance by tracking behaviors through connected devices and currencies, and trust earned in one area like hosting guests could help access tools from others. When currencies are interlinked, it opens up possibilities for transparently seeing environmental impacts and incentivizing sustainable choices.
The document discusses a municipality's plan to implement unmanned video-operated citizen service centers and reception areas at the town hall using Cisco technology. The goals are to provide services with fewer personnel during longer hours while maintaining a high level of customer service. Concerns include employee resistance to changes, political pressure for face-to-face services, and skepticism from unions about potential job cuts. The municipality plans to address these challenges through open communication, citizen involvement, and transparency to build understanding and cooperation.
This document provides information on prioritizing product backlogs for profit. It discusses identifying market needs through research and expressing needs to stakeholders. It emphasizes the importance of prioritizing based on three core groups: stakeholder alignment, strategic alignment, and driving profit. Stakeholder alignment involves prioritizing based on input from customer personas, partners, and internal teams. Strategic alignment means showing how the backlog aligns with the company's strategy and roadmap. Driving profit refers to prioritizing features that increase revenue or reduce costs based on the business model. Techniques for prioritizing with stakeholders like innovation games and shared spreadsheets are presented.
