This document provides tips for improving reading comprehension. It recommends making notes or drawings while reading instead of highlighting. It also suggests teaching someone else what you've read to better understand and remember the information. Additionally, using your own words to write summaries and developing questions before and after reading can help focus your reading and build understanding. Building vocabulary is also important so more words are understood without needing to look up definitions.
We all know that there is no single right way to take and store notes, rather there are more and less efficient ways and it's best to find one that suits your own style.

Unchaining the Analysts - making BDUF Scrum friendly by Amber HaleyBosnia Agile
Project managers, product owners and most people who are NOT developers struggle with defining a heavily technical solution... And business analysts of the traditional nature have this technical nous, but struggle to make the transition to using agile frameworks because of the lingering hangover of BDUF/BRUF. Simply adding a BA to your team will likely create more problems than solutions without re-engineering the need to know all the facts into something that fits "just enough and Just in time".
But it doesn't have to be this way.
In this case study based presentation I explore exact the exact methods we used to upskill a Business analyst or requirements engineer, and massage their skillset into a key role that can insure that quality, detail rich stories go into any agile process, while bridging the communication gap and bringing a wealth of "Big Picture" thinking to the bite sized chunks of Scrum development.

Han was trafficked from Vietnam under false promises of high-paying work. He was forced into prostitution at a reflexology center in Malaysia, and was raped and beaten repeatedly by his boss and others. For 4-5 years, Han was forced to have sex with up to 18 men daily, and was further abused if he did not meet quotas. Though he had a baby, Han continued being forced into prostitution while caring for the child. Both were eventually arrested and deported, leaving Han homeless and skill-less in Vietnam.
This document discusses ways for Japan to reduce its high debt-to-GDP ratio of 240% through reforms aimed at increasing productivity and GDP. It argues that Japan needs to improve workforce participation rates, particularly of women and immigrants, to combat population aging issues and boost GDP. Increased productivity through deregulation, competition reforms, and innovation are also seen as important to raise Japan's GDP per capita from its current low level. Adopting policies that increase GDP through these reforms could help Japan reach its debt ratio target of 183% set by the IMF and improve its economic outlook.

This document describes a microfluidic method for measuring interfacial tension between immiscible fluids using a microfluidic device. The device contains two tapered microchannels connected by a pair of modified Laplace sensors. Interfacial tension is determined by monitoring the pressure drop across the microchannels where the interfaces are formed and measuring the curvatures of the interfaces. The method was tested using oil/water systems and results agreed well with a commercial tensiometry. This provides a low-cost and fast way to measure interfacial tension in microfluidics.

Revision refers to the process of editing, correcting, altering, or adapting something that was previously created. Effective revision strategies include re-reading notes or materials, re-writing key points, organizing information, and practicing retrieving information from memory rather than just recognizing familiar concepts. Revision requires time, avoiding distractions, spacing out practice over time in order to strengthen memory and understanding of concepts through deliberate practice.
A team is more than an aggregation of individuals, it is a unique human organism. Regardless of the task or context, it is about relationships, authenticity, and surrendering. Goals, timelines, measures and results are mere accessories—useful, but not the point.
In this Team and Work Group Coaching Community of Practice webinar, Peter Block makes the distinction between individual, team, and system work. Furthermore, he shares how to create awareness so that a sense of belonging can quickly be produced; in particular, he notes how asking questions which people do not know how to defend against can break down these barriers. Also, he claims it calls for coaches to be less helpful, but more curious because answers tend to keep people apart and questions can bring them together. Lastly, he highlights what the role of the team coach should be in this complex and sensitive field of activities. Participants of this presentation will gain a deep insight into the essence (heart) of relatedness, belonging, and collect awareness which are the key elements for making teams authetic and most successful.
This webinar took place on Tuesday, September 6, 2016 at 11:00am ET. For more information about this Community of Practice visit it's LinkedIn page at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/5008300.

25 world languages interpreting a poem about children.pdfBrian Lewis
Free Gift for You.
OUR GIFT FOR YOU.
DOWNLOAD AND ENJOY
PLEASE SHARE THE LINK WITH ALL WHO YOU LOVE AND CARE ABOUT.
This e-book brings you the spiritual reunion of humanity for our children.
Images of devastating AND shameful pain and suffering call our hearts with seeming inability to do anything to help.
This poem has been praised for its simplicity and its uniformity of acceptance by all people.
It is unimaginable that children suffer indiscriminately wherever it occurs.
We can agree that the lives of our children are precious, can't we?
Until now every person who has read this poem agrees.
Do you?
Find out with this gift.
Please share it with your loved ones.
If we say this poem enough, if we share it as much as we can, if we take just a moment in our day to think of children and how precious they are then we begin the changes that are needed.
This poem is not only about the children who are being killed in places of war and sectarian violence.
This poem is about children who experience abuse and worse in their life even though they do not live in a place of war and sectarian violence.
If we can agree to the ideas that our children are precious and that we seek the best for them, and expand that feeling to the children of other people and recognize too that all children need our love and compassion then perhaps, just perhaps a small change can grow.
Revolutionary Rural Economic and Environment DevelopmentBrian Lewis
The document discusses the REED Program, which aims to promote sustainable rural development through integrated aquaculture, agriculture, and environmental protection. It outlines the program's objectives of establishing model communities that produce food while restoring ecosystems. The REED Program addresses issues like water and land degradation, as well as the growing global demand for food, through community empowerment and diverse green production for local and international markets.
The document reflects on how one's perspective changes with age and experience. When young, mountains were simply mountains and waters simply waters, but gaining knowledge and labels for things can create an illusion of understanding that obscures true perception. Only by setting aside preconceptions can one see again that mountains are mountains and waters are waters in their own right.
The document appears to be a collection of poems or reflections expressing the perspective of a newborn infant separated from its mother's womb and experiencing the world for the first time. The poems describe the infant's confusion, fear, and longing to return to its mother's warm and secure embrace. While crying and struggling to understand its new surroundings, the infant gradually begins to feel nourishment and solace from its mother's love and presence.
If the speaker were an alien visiting Earth, they would see its natural beauty but be confused and saddened by the ways humans divide and harm each other through fear, greed, and hatred. Looking from above, the alien would see no boundaries between humans. Upon returning to report their findings, the alien urges humans to tear down walls between them, love each other, and feel compassion for all people.
The document describes Alan Watts' Buddhist conception of the universe as being like a spider's web covered in dewdrops early in the morning. Each dewdrop contains reflections of all the other dewdrops, and within each reflection are reflections of all the other dewdrops as well, ad infinitum. This concept represents how the universe contains reflections within reflections within reflections.
The document lists eight precepts or vows: ahimsa (cause no harm), satya (speak the truth), asteya (do not take what is not yours), aprigraha (detach from things, places, people), brahmacarya (practice celibacy). These five precepts would later be repeated in Classical Yoga schools as yamas or restraints. Mahavira added three spiritual objectives: right view, right knowledge, and right conduct. The document also mentions contemplating past pure ones to unify the mind.
The document appears to be a series of fragmented phrases and sentences with various Flickr usernames attached. There is no clear narrative or story, but some of the phrases seem to reference entering a vast and timeless center, leading to acceptance, knowledge, and internalized wisdom, ultimately witnessing a transformation and realization.
The document discusses impermanence and how all things come and go through the stages of life from conception to death. It notes that we, and all things, will find our place and then disappear. It asks why we see this as cruel and reflects on how life's meaning is now seen as emptied and fulfilled dreams have popped. It uses metaphors of streams washing down mountains and bubbles that briefly brighten to illustrate these points about change and impermanence.
Leadership Pathways--women agricultural cooperative directorsBrian Lewis
This thesis examines the pathways of six women who have become directors of agricultural cooperatives. Through interviews, the women described their pre-nomination involvement in cooperative-related organizations which provided leadership development experiences. They were nominated by nominating committees, encouraged by others in their networks, and several had concerns about being elected. After election, some felt they were initially seen as tokens or had to prove themselves, but they gained acceptance from peers over time. Overall, their stories revealed that participation in cooperative-affiliated groups supported their leadership advancement within agricultural cooperatives.
This document discusses agriculture, food, and water. It notes that food production has kept pace with population growth in recent decades through irrigation and other means, but nearly 800 million people remain undernourished. A growing population will need more food and water in the future. Key questions are discussed around how food production can be made more efficient and sustainable. The role of rainfed and irrigated agriculture, as well as fisheries, in meeting food needs is examined.
El documento discute la creciente escasez mundial de agua dulce debido al rápido crecimiento de la población humana y los cambios en los patrones de uso del agua. Menciona que para 2025, dos tercios de la población mundial probablemente vivirán en países con escasez moderada o severa de agua, y que para alimentar a la población humana proyectada para ese año se necesitarán 3,800 km3 adicionales de agua dulce anualmente. También destaca la necesidad de reducir la
CURRENT THEORIES IN ECONOMICS AND THEIR APPLICATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A R...Brian Lewis
This document summarizes key concepts from the 2010 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences related to labor market dynamics. It discusses search frictions that cause unemployment and influence hiring, firing, quits and vacancies. It analyzes how the laureates' models help understand how unemployment, job openings and wages are impacted by policies like regulations. It then examines several factors in depth, including search processes, job creation/destruction, and how various government policies like unemployment insurance, minimum wages, taxation and others can impact the labor market. It emphasizes the importance of collecting detailed data and developing measurement capabilities to better understand these dynamics and inform policy decisions.
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

Trusting God's Providence.
Providence - God’s active preservation and care over His creation. God is both the Creator and the Sustainer of all things Heb. 1:2-3; Col. 1:17
-God keep His promises.
-God’s general providence is toward all creation
- All things were made through Him
God’s special providence is toward His children.
We may suffer now, but joy can and will come
God can see what we cannot see
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
