This document provides information on building and marketing websites, including search engine optimization techniques like Google advertising and pay-per-click models. It also covers HTML elements for links and tables, and how to use them. Finally, it discusses CSS topics like inheritance, classes, and different methods for specifying font sizes like percentages, ems and keywords.
The document provides a comparison of direct and reported speech, listing the changes in verb tenses and other words when moving from quoting someone's exact words to reporting what they said. Direct speech uses present tenses while reported speech changes verbs to past tenses, substitutes pronouns like this/these for that/those, and replaces words like now with then to indicate the speech is being reported after the fact rather than occurring in the present.

Pluto is located over 2 billion miles from Earth in space and is too far away to see with the naked eye. It is composed of ice, rock, and craters. Pluto was discovered in the 1930s and has three moons: Nix, Hydra, and Char. A space craft called New Horizons arrived at Pluto in 2015 to learn more about it since scientists cannot observe details of Pluto from Earth. Temperatures on Pluto are extremely cold at -232 Celsius, making it impossible to live there due to the thin atmosphere and weak gravity. A proposed robot would collect dust samples on Pluto to help scientists learn more about its composition through pictures and analysis back on Earth.
The document provides details about the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. It describes Joseph Strauss, the chief engineer for the project. Key events included Strauss' proposal being approved in 1923, construction beginning in 1929, and the bridge opening ceremony in 1937. The bridge is 1.7 miles long, weighs over 887,000 tons, and was considered one of the greatest engineering achievements of the 20th century. Safety precautions during construction included the use of hard hats and respirators.
The Fight for Marjah - Recent Counterinsurgency Operations In Southern Afghan...william.m.thomson
The document summarizes counterinsurgency operations conducted in Marjah, Afghanistan from early 2010 to present. It details Operation Moshtarak, launched in February 2010, which aimed to clear insurgents from the Taliban stronghold of Marjah and implement a population-centric counterinsurgency strategy. The operations struggled with establishing legitimate governance and policing in Marjah and convincing locals of security under a new authority. The case study of Marjah provides lessons for future COIN operations in securing populations and governance in insurgent areas of Afghanistan.

This document discusses key aspects of data warehousing design and implementation including:
- Storing historical data in a separate environment from operational data with a different structure optimized for analysis rather than transactions.
- Requirements gathering, data modeling, ETL, OLAP cube design, and report development to architect the analytical environment.
- Ongoing maintenance of the data warehouse including performance tuning, query optimization, quality assurance, and incremental enhancements.
There are three main types of galaxies: spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies, and irregular galaxies. Spiral galaxies include the Milky Way galaxy and can also be barred. Elliptical galaxies range in shape from spherical to oval. Irregular galaxies have no defined shape and contain significant amounts of gas.
This document provides an overview of the Nisga'a Nation Language and Culture program. It acknowledges past successes but also identifies current challenges including a severely endangered language status. It outlines draft plans to address these challenges through various initiatives aimed at creating fluent speakers, preserving the language digitally, increasing its status, promoting motivation, developing school programming, and including the language more broadly. Feedback is sought to clarify if these draft plans are moving in the right direction. The document emphasizes working in unity across communities and with partners through cohesive, collaborative efforts.

The document provides an overview of knowledge management and knowledge engineering. It discusses the differences between tacit and explicit knowledge. It also summarizes several models for knowledge management processes and activities, including acquiring, selecting, using, internalizing, and generating knowledge. Key frameworks covered include the SECI model, Frapaiolo's KM processes, and CommonKADS, a methodology for knowledge management system development.
Mr. O'Donnell introduces himself to families, providing some personal details like growing up in Massachusetts and his education background. He outlines the daily schedule for the 4th grade class, including morning meeting, English language arts, math, social studies, and science lessons. Students will also participate in art, gym, music, library and computer lab. Mr. O'Donnell emphasizes open communication with families and provides reminders about snacks, homework, and upcoming field trips.
Caching Search Engine Results over Incremental IndicesRoi Blanco
A Web search engine must update its index periodically to incorporate changes to the Web. We argue in this paper that index updates fundamentally impact the design of search engine result caches, a performance-critical component of modern search engines. Index updates lead to the problem of cache invalidation: invalidating cached entries of queries whose results have changed. Naive approaches, such as flushing the entire cache upon every index update, lead to poor performance and in fact, render caching futile when the frequency of updates is high. Solving the invalidation problem efficiently corresponds to predicting accurately which queries will produce different results if re-evaluated, given the actual changes to the index.
To obtain this property, we propose a framework for developing invalidation predictors and define metrics to evaluate invalidation schemes. We describe concrete predictors using this framework and compare them against a baseline that uses a cache invalidation scheme based on time-to-live (TTL). Evaluation over Wikipedia documents using a query log from the Yahoo! search engine shows that selective invalidation of cached search results can lower the number of unnecessary query evaluations by as much as 30% compared to a baseline scheme, while returning results of similar freshness. In general, our predictors enable fewer unnecessary invalidations and fewer stale results compared to a TTL-only scheme for similar freshness of results.
This document provides instructions and information for setting up and using a notebook for a geography class. It includes directions to write name and class on the front cover and date assignments in the top right corner of pages. The content covers key concepts about maps like how they show relative locations and can show change over time using a grid system of latitude and longitude. It also provides examples of map views and homework assignments.
