The document discusses preparing for a workshop on winter driving safety. It outlines activities that will be covered, including reviewing vocabulary words, filling in blanks in sentences, listening to a dialogue about winter driving tips, learning what to do before, while and if stuck driving in winter conditions, discussing case studies, and a dictation exercise. The workshop aims to teach participants how to prepare their vehicle, drive safely and what to do in an emergency during winter driving.

Most of the computer applications use digital images. Digital image processing acts an important
role in the analysis and interpretation of data, which is in the digital form. Images taken in foggy
weather condition often suffer from poor visibility and clarity. After the study of several fast
dehazing methods like Tan’s dehazing technique, Fattal’s dehazing technique and aiming Heat al
dehazing technique, Dark Channel Prior (DCP) intended by He et al is most substantive technique
for dehazing.This survey aims to study about various existing methods such as polarization, dark
channel prior, depth map based method etc. are used for dehazing.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Oh no! Look at all that snow! What am I going to do?
Johanna, what are you talking about?
I hate driving in the winter. It seems so dangerous!
It can be, but if you prepare for it you can really reduce the danger.
Really?
For sure. I have been attending a seminar at work about driving safely in the
winter. It has been a big help.
Sure, there are a lot of things we can do to prevent accidents. The first thing is
that we should simple stay off the roads if the road conditions are very bad.
What have you learned so far? Do you have any tips for me?
That’s a good idea. I just read an article saying that in the event of a blizzard we
should simply stay off the road until the snow plows were able to clean things up.
Exactly, bad road conditions can be a real hazard.

I guess driving in bad conditions can really affect traction on the road.
That’s for sure. Black ice can be a huge problem.
Black ice? What’s that?
Black ice is ice on the road that’s not visible. The ground may look dry even when
it’s covered in ice.
That could be very bad.
Yes, so caution is always necessary. Another problem in the winter is low lying fog
which can be very dangerous as well.
So the seminar covers all these points?
Yes, it does. There is still time to sign up. Why don’t you attend with me? I’m
sure you will learn a lot.
When is the next class?
Tomorrow night at 7:00 pm. I’ll pick you up at 6:45!
29. Let’s learn what we can do to drive safely
in the winter!
Activity 4
57. Case Study 1
Simbaljeet checked the weather forecast in the
morning, and all seemed ok. She left her home 4
hours later only to get stuck in the middle of a serious
accident.
What could she have done differently?
58. Case Study 2
Bob went for a drive and accidentally drove into
the back of another driver. He said it wasn’t his
fault because the road was so slippery.
What do you say?
59. Case Study 3
Shamsun checked the weather forecast. It was so
bad she decided to stay home.
What safe driving principle is she following?
60. Case Study 4
Rob got stuck in the snow. He got out ok, but
nearly froze his hand clearing the snow.
What mistake did he make?
61. Case Study 5
Where did he go wrong?
Joe was turning into a parking lot but wasn’t able
to make the turn. He drove over the curb and
then into another car.
64. Dictation 2
If you must drive in less than perfect conditions be sure
to let your family know where you are going.
65. Dictation 3
Keeping an emergency kit in the trunk of your car really
could save your life. Update it from time to time to be
sure you have the equipment you need in an emergency.
66. Dictation 4
On the highway, be sure to keep a safe distance between
you and the driver in front of you. Keep 8-10 seconds of
the nearest car in front of you.
67. Dictation 5
Before the onset of the winter driving season be sure to
have your car checked over by a professional. Among
other things, you should get a basic tune up and oil
change.
