This document discusses equality and diversity in the workplace. It begins by defining the objectives of the session as helping participants understand what equality and diversity means, identify differences among people, increase awareness of personal biases, and understand various types of discrimination. It then defines equality as equal rights and treatment for all, and diversity as differences from what is normal or expected. The document uses activities and examples to illustrate diversity in various jobs and how discrimination can negatively impact people.
The document discusses the importance of diversity and inclusion leadership for the 21st century. It outlines the benefits of diversity emerging from inclusive cultures and notes that both equal opportunity and diversity initiatives are needed. The globalized world requires embracing diversity given demographic shifts. Leaders must understand and advocate for the case of diversity given America's increasing population diversity and challenges retaining critical talent and technical workers. Inclusion and engagement are imperative for sustainability.
Managing Cultural Diversity and Global TeamworkDaniela Kaneva
Â
The document discusses how national culture impacts global business operations and managing cultural diversity. It analyzes the 1997 crash of Korean Airlines Flight 801, which was caused by the crew not challenging the captain's mistakes due to Korean culture's emphasis on hierarchy and conformity. It then discusses how people from different cultures think and behave differently based on dimensions like individualism vs collectivism and uncertainty avoidance. Managing these cultural differences is important for effective global teams, communications, and negotiations.

This document discusses understanding diversity and its importance. It provides definitions of diversity, what diversity is and isn't. The document outlines that diversity is about understanding differences that make people unique, such as ethnicity, culture, experiences and beliefs. It encourages taking a look at oneself and others in a non-judgmental way to understand diversity, avoid stereotypes, and appreciate various perspectives to gain new insights.
Citizenship provides people with rights and duties within their country, including voting, living and working there. The document discusses inequality, specifically gender inequality, which refers to unequal treatment based on gender from differences in social roles and biology. It notes that women are often paid less than men for the same work due to stereotypes viewing women as less competent. While the gender pay gap has decreased in some countries, obstacles remain like women taking on a double workload at home and in the workplace. The biggest challenge to gender equality in the workplace is said to be environments requiring long hours and availability that disadvantage women's family responsibilities.
The document provides guidance and examples for writing a paper about Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. It outlines dos and don'ts for the introduction paragraph, such as avoiding sweeping statements and too much plot summary. Sample introduction paragraphs are included that vary in their effectiveness. The better ones state a clear thesis about how the pursuit of knowledge inhibits the characters' ability to experience sympathy. Body paragraph examples are also given, with one paragraph criticized for including multiple speculations without evidence. The document advises looking at the checklist for writing strong body paragraphs.
Metabolic abnormalities in obesity are caused by an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure over time. There are three main components of total energy expenditure - resting energy expenditure, the energy expended during physical activity, and the thermic effect of food. In obesity, resting energy expenditure is increased due to more adipose tissue, but the thermic effect of food is reduced. Adipose tissue stores triglycerides and also functions as an endocrine organ secreting hormones that influence metabolism. Dysregulation of lipid metabolism and adipokine secretion in obesity can lead to medical complications.
This document outlines Lesson III of the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course. It teaches students how to safely fire their first shots from a benchrest and standing position. The lesson covers pistol fundamentals, range safety rules, commands, sight adjustment, and the proper two-handed standing position. The objective is for students to demonstrate knowledge and skills for assuming firing positions and safely shooting a pistol on a range using proper techniques.

The document discusses the themes explored in the film La Haine, including the treatment of ethnic minorities, poverty, racism, and social issues in the suburbs of Paris. It analyzes the responses of the three main characters - Hubert, Said, and Vinz - to living in the suburbs and the challenges they face. The document also examines the film's portrayal of the police, gender roles, and everyday life in the suburbs through the use of cinematography techniques like variations in depth of field and handheld camera work. These techniques are used to convey themes of social divides and the complex issues faced by inhabitants of the Parisian suburbs.
From Selling the City to City Branding. A Critical PerspectivePrivate

Lecture on city branding at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands by Eduardo Oliveira.
"Cities and mega-cities, rather than countries, are increasingly becoming the principal protagonists between geographical regions. The competition between cities to establish their credentials as the best choice for prospective visitors, investors, business, students and talented people will intensify as places focus on how to convey their competitive edge and relevance" (Baker, 2011).

Este poema trata sobre un hombre que abandona a su pareja embarazada porque no está dispuesto a asumir la responsabilidad de ser padre. El poema justifica esta decisiĂłn citando el deseo del hombre de amar libremente y sin ataduras. Expresa que ama el amor fugaz de los marineros que dejan a una mujer en cada puerto. Finalmente, demuestra una actitud egoĂsta e indolente hacia la mujer y el hijo que deja atrás.
Go is a compiled programming language developed by Google in 2009. It was designed for systems programming and web development. Some key features include a simple syntax similar to C, automatic memory management, and built-in support for concurrency. While it lacks some object-oriented features like inheritance, Go sees widespread use due to its fast compilation, clear syntax, and support across many platforms. The document discusses whether Go is worth learning and provides installation and development environment details.
The document is an examination paper from Canberra Secondary School in 2010 assessing students' knowledge of 20th century world history from 1910-1991. It consists of two sections - Section A requires students to answer source-based questions about Stalin's rule in the Soviet Union. Section B requires answering one structured essay question about establishing peace after World War 1, causes of World War 2, or the Cold War and collapse of the USSR. The sources provided include a French propaganda poster of Stalin, an account of a Communist Party meeting under Stalin, and Stalin announcing the results of the First Five-Year Plan.
Using Simplicity to Make Hard Big Data Problems Easynathanmarz
Â
The document proposes a simple approach to solving a complex problem of computing unique visitors over time ranges that involves maintaining normalized and denormalized views of the data. The approach involves:
1) Storing all data in a master dataset and continuously recomputing indexes and views as a function of all the data to maintain normalized and denormalized views.
2) Querying both recent real-time views and historical batch views to retrieve the necessary data for a time range query, combining for high performance and accuracy.
3) Approximating unique counts for recent data by ignoring real-time equivalences to keep the real-time layer simple while still providing good query performance and eventual accuracy.
Mass spectrometry is a technique that converts a sample to gas-phase ions which are then separated by mass and charge. It involves ionization of the sample using electron bombardment or other methods, mass analysis using magnetic or electric fields to separate ions, and detection of ion abundances. Mass spectrometry can be used to determine molecular masses and obtain structural information through fragmentation patterns.
Remember learning about ecosystems in your third grade science class? If not, here's a refresher: ecosystems are communities or environments made up of interacting organisms. Your workplace is a lot like an ecosystem. It's made up of different personalities (or organisms for the sake of the metaphor) that work together to help a business succeed.
Knowing your own personality type will make you a more effective employee. So, what's your personality type?

The document discusses effective strategies for agricultural experts to communicate with the public about farming practices. It notes that consumers have concerns about how food is produced but experts have not adequately engaged in the conversation. The key strategies discussed are to lead conversations by emphasizing shared values like food safety and animal welfare, use personal stories to build trust, provide credible sources to back up scientific facts, and engage proactively through social media to shape the public narrative. The goal is for experts to have an open dialogue to increase understanding of new technologies and address misinformation.

The document discusses potential alternative energy sources to replace fossil fuels as the primary global energy source. It describes four main alternative energy sources under research: hydrogen, natural gas, biofuels, and solar energy. Hydrogen can be produced through electrolysis of water and used to power fuel cell vehicles. Natural gas and biofuels can be used similarly to gasoline but produce fewer emissions. Solar energy can be converted to electricity through photovoltaic cells and used to power vehicles through new electric motors or produce hydrogen through electrolysis. Transitioning to these alternative energy sources will help ensure a continued energy supply as fossil fuel reserves are depleted.

This document summarizes a research project on social norms and risky behaviors among youth. It discusses:
1) Background on previous social norms interventions from 2007-2010.
2) Research aims to study misperceptions around peer behaviors, differences by gender/age/socioeconomics, and effective implementation.
3) Key findings showed that youth overestimate peer involvement in risks but most have positive attitudes and decision making. Feedback affirmed the approach and potential for partnership and commitment.
