This document summarizes Pakistan's major commodity exports for July-June 2010-11 and 2009-10. The top three exported commodities by value were:
1. Rice, worth $2.16 billion, accounting for 1.08% of total exports.
2. Textiles, worth $13.63 billion, accounting for 34.77% of total exports.
3. Petroleum and petroleum products, worth $1.35 billion, accounting for 30.87% of total exports.
Bryce Neier, a North Carolina attorney, contributes to charities including Smile Train. Smile Train provides cleft lip and cleft palate surgery to individuals in developing countries, as these disorders can prevent proper eating, speaking, and attending school or work. Through Smile Train, doctors travel to over 80 countries and have treated hundreds of thousands of children, providing surgery and follow-up care like dentistry and speech therapy for those who cannot afford it. Smile Train also benefits communities by training local professionals and utilizing modern medical equipment.
An Israeli NPO dedicated to the empowerment of women, teens, and other special populations through Martial Arts and Self-Defense training, as a path to a joyous, safe and fulfilling life.
This document discusses STEAM'D learning, an approach to education that incorporates science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics through interconnected, authentic, problem-based projects involving drawing, designing, and prototyping. Some examples provided include building rockets from straw and paper, edible structures from food items, and water filtration systems. The approach emphasizes providing skills and knowledge through hands-on mini-explorations and challenges related to topics like renewable energy and off-grid living.
The last class of an old professor's life took place weekly in his home, where he taught about the meaning of life based on his own experiences. Each week, students were expected to ask and answer questions, as well as help the professor with tasks. Kissing the professor goodbye earned extra credit. Though no books were used, many topics were discussed, including love, work, community, family, aging, forgiveness, and death. The final class was brief, with a funeral held instead of graduation. Students were expected to write a paper summarizing what they had learned. The last student of the professor's class was delivering that paper.
The document outlines plans by Project H4C Hope for Cambodia to help improve facilities at a school in Cambodia. They aim to: 1) Build a new kitchen and toilets, 2) Repair classroom roofs, 3) Provide water filters and refurbish classrooms with murals, 4) Teach basic lessons to students. They are fundraising through community events and collecting school supplies to donate.

Joseph Priestley conducted experiments in the late 18th century that led to the isolation of oxygen and the development of carbonated drinks. The document then discusses the composition of air and methods for separating air into its components. It also describes common air pollutants like carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide along with their major sources and harmful effects. Methods for reducing air pollution through the use of catalytic converters and flue gas desulfurization are also summarized.
The document summarizes key topics about the atmosphere and environment, including:
1) The composition of air is approximately 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and the remainder being noble gases like argon.
2) Common air pollutants include carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and their sources include incomplete combustion of fuels and vehicles.
3) Air pollution can harm health and the environment, and acid rain forms from air pollutants dissolving in water. Increased carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere may contribute to global warming.

The document discusses relative atomic mass (Ar) and relative molecular/formula mass (Mr). It explains that Ar is a ratio of the mass of a given atom to 1/12 the mass of one carbon-12 atom, with no units. Mr is similarly defined for molecules and ionic compounds. The document provides examples of calculating Ar and Mr values for various elements and compounds from their atomic masses.
A mole is defined as 6.022x10^23 particles of a substance. Molar mass refers to the mass of one mole of a substance and has the same value as the relative atomic mass or relative molecular mass. Key formulas include that the number of moles equals the mass divided by the molar mass or relative mass, and that the mass of one mole of a substance equals the mass in grams divided by the relative mass.
The document discusses how to determine the formula of a compound through experimentation. It provides an example of finding the formula of magnesium oxide. Key steps include measuring the masses of reactants and products, calculating moles of each substance, and determining the ratio of elements in the compound based on the mole ratios. The formula of magnesium oxide in this example is MgO.
The document provides examples for calculating percentage composition by mass of elements in compounds. It gives the formula for finding percentage composition and worked examples calculating the percentage of elements like nitrogen and hydrogen in ammonia, hydrogen and oxygen in hydrogen peroxide, and water in copper(II) sulfate and iron(III) chloride hexahydrate.
This document reviews key concepts about moles and molar mass from chapters 9.3 and 9.4. It defines a mole as containing 6 x 10^23 particles based on Avogadro's constant. Molar mass refers to the mass of one mole of a substance and has the same value as the relative atomic or molecular mass. Formulas are provided relating moles, mass, and molar mass or relative atomic/molecular mass for elements, covalent compounds, and ionic compounds.
