Escapes With You aims to create a marketplace turning social media content like pins, shares, tweets and likes into purchases. The platform will function as a discovery marketplace based on a user's shared social network information, solving the problem of spending 30 hours to find relevant travel activities. It will focus on three key elements - discovering crowdsourced experiences, a non-traditional marketplace for experiences like Airbnb, and providing relevant instant updates on new discoveries daily.
The document discusses a company's product strategy and revenue channels. It focuses on three elements: discover experiences through crowdsourcing, creating a marketplace for non-traditional experiences with a laser focus on community, and providing daily relevant instant updates. Feedback from customers supported the concept of an Airbnb-style platform for experiences and indicated a desire for mobile app access and relevant purchasing recommendations. The company plans to build out core features and enhance the social aspects of ecommerce.
This document discusses the integration of agricultural and energy markets and the effects on food security. It notes that rising global population and incomes are increasing both food and energy demand. Agricultural production relies on energy for inputs like fertilizer and machinery, so higher energy prices increase food costs. The growth of biofuels also competes for agricultural land and feedstocks. Ensuring adequate, affordable food supplies will require balancing food, energy and environmental needs.
This document discusses probability concepts through examples using a die and coin. It begins with foundational probability definitions and formulas. An example is presented where the possible outcomes of rolling a die and flipping a coin are listed. This is used to demonstrate how to calculate probabilities of different outcomes, such as the chance of an even number or even number and heads. The key ideas are that probability is a fraction from 0 to 1, and the probability of multiple conditions is found by multiplying their individual probabilities.
This document summarizes an introductory lesson on probability that includes examples of calculating probabilities from tables of outcomes. It contains the following problems:
1) Calculating various probabilities from a table showing the number of balls of different colors and numbers.
2) Stating that the probability of rain this weekend is 25% and calculating the odds in favor of rain as 1:3 by comparing the favorable and unfavorable outcomes.
3) Explaining that odds represent a ratio that compares the number of favorable outcomes to unfavorable outcomes.
Solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formulaDaisyListening
The document provides instructions on solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. It begins by presenting the formula: x = -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) / 2a. It then works through three examples of applying the formula step-by-step: solving 2x^2 - 5x - 3 = 0, solving 2x^2 + 7x = 9, and solving x^2 + x - 1 = 0. Each example shows identifying the a, b, and c coefficients and plugging them into the formula to solve for x.
This presentation teaches how to graph quadratic equations in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c. It explains that the direction the graph opens is determined by the sign of a, and how to find the vertex, y-intercept, and axis of symmetry by using formulas involving a, b, and c. It then works through examples of graphing the equations y = 5x^2 + 10x - 3 and y = x^2 + 4x + 8, finding all key points and graphing each parabola.
This document defines important 8th grade math vocabulary including quadratic function, parabola, vertex, axis of symmetry, and parent graph. A quadratic function is a nonlinear function that can be written as y=ax^2+bx+c with the highest term being x^2. Its graph is a parabola shaped like a U, with the vertex being the highest or lowest point and the axis of symmetry dividing it into two equal parts. The parent graph refers to the formula y=x^2.
Integration of agricultural and energy system models for biofuel assessmentSimla Tokgoz
This document summarizes an integrated modeling framework to assess biofuels that links agricultural and energy system models. It describes:
1) The motivation to link the models given the interconnectedness of agricultural and energy markets due to biofuels.
2) The objectives to set up a coupled modeling framework capturing dynamic linkages between the sectors and assess environmental impacts.
3) An overview of the key agricultural (CARD) and energy (MARKAL) models and how they are iteratively run and calibrated to reach convergence on variables like biofuel production levels and prices.

Efecto del secado sobre las propiedades fisicoErnesto Abello
El documento describe los efectos del secado sobre las propiedades de los granos. El secado reduce la humedad de los granos para prevenir la descomposición durante el almacenamiento. Sin embargo, el secado rápido puede causar cuarteado en los granos, lo que aumenta la probabilidad de rotura. La temperatura y humedad del aire de secado también afectan la calidad de los granos.
Uma solução é uma mistura homogênea de pelo menos dois componentes, sendo um o soluto e o outro o solvente, que normalmente é água. O coeficiente de solubilidade determina a quantidade máxima de soluto que pode se dissolver em uma quantidade de solvente em determinadas condições. As soluções podem ser classificadas como insaturadas, saturadas ou supersaturadas dependendo da quantidade de soluto dissolvido.

OVERVIEW MAP
Like the mythological wood nymph who lends her name to this remarkable Amazonian eco-resort, Hamadryade
Lodge is inextricably tied to its surroundings. Owners Melanie and Sebastian Cazaudehore were determined to Adventure Gourment Art and Culture Green
help revitalize their 64-hectare property overlooking the Napo River, scarred from the remnants of an abandoned 16 Escapes 24 Escapes 36 Escapes 78 Escapes
gold mine. Hamadryade was designed to aid rather than hinder the area’s ecological healing process.
It’s as stylish as it is green — the four bungalows that comprise the living area are spacious and modern, with a bit
of beachfront flair. Sheltered porches and wide doorways enhance airflow — not an unimportant consideration in VIEW ALL VIEW ALL VIEW ALL VIEW ALL
a rainforest climate. Traditional toquilla roofs and interior decorations that reference the local communities
provide a unique complement to the stark black and white furniture.
Hamadryade prides itself on fostering responsible tourism, and offers several guided excursions into the rainforest
with the ultimate goal of introducing visitors to the rich local history. However, it’s also a high-end resort, and for
those guests who simply want to chill out in Amazonian splendor, there are plenty of opportunities for pampering
or sumptuous relaxation. The bungalows’ spacious showers feature natural stones for a private, soothing experi- Napo
ence, and for those requiring deeper relaxation, there’s an on-site massage hut. After a long day spent rafting or Ecuador
exploring nearby caves and waterfalls, the lodge’s three-course candlelight dinner feels like fine dining in the
middle of the world’s most famous jungle.
