The document summarizes recommendations from focus groups with 46 formerly incarcerated youth in Los Angeles County juvenile detention camps on how to improve the camps. The youth identified 5 key themes, with the most important being the need to increase and diversify rehabilitation and educational programs. The youth felt there were not enough programs to keep them occupied, which led to boredom, anger and fights. While some camps had improved, many still lacked sufficient programs. The youth provided examples of positive programs they experienced and stressed the need for more academic, mental health, career and skill-building programs. They believed increased programming could help rehabilitate youth and reduce recidivism.
Este documento presenta una propuesta para mejorar las funciones ejecutivas en estudiantes universitarios a distancia. La propuesta incluye diseñar una cartilla y aplicar ejercicios usando el aplicativo PARROT para fortalecer habilidades como la atención, la memoria y el lenguaje. El documento analiza las funciones ejecutivas y cómo desarrollarlas, y propone ejercicios específicos en PARROT para cada habilidad.
Dr. Lisa Becton - Foreign Animal Disease PreparednessJohn Blue
This document discusses foreign animal disease preparedness in the US pork industry. It outlines the main trade-limiting foreign animal diseases of concern for swine: foot-and-mouth disease, swine vesicular disease, classical swine fever, and African swine fever. These diseases are all viruses that primarily or exclusively affect pigs. The document reviews the impacts of outbreaks, including estimated billions in losses, and discusses industry and government efforts to coordinate preparedness through plans, research, education, and surveillance to rapidly detect and respond to any introductions and limit impacts on producers and the food supply.

This document provides an overview of basic banking concepts including savings accounts, certificates of deposit, checking accounts, writing checks, and maintaining a checkbook register. It explains that banks are for-profit institutions that earn money through customer accounts and loans, while credit unions are non-profit and owned by members. It also outlines key factors like interest rates, penalties for early withdrawal, overdraft protection, and properly endorsing checks.
Mithileysh Sathiyanarayanan and Mohammad Alsaffar presented Euler-time Diagrams, a novel visual method and software tool to represent set relationships over time. They combined the concepts of Euler diagrams, which show set relationships, and time-series, which show the sequence of events over time. The tool was developed using D3 and Google's toolkit and allows users to visualize how diseases rates change over multiple years by interacting with the diagrams. The authors aim to further develop the tool by incorporating principles of visual perception and cognition.
Day 3: HRRHCongres: Theo Vaes (Armen Tekort) HRmagazine
Theo Vaes is ondernemer en enkele jaren geleden werd bij voorzitter van de Raad van Bestuur van Daklozenhulp Antwerpen. ‘Toen zag ik voor het eerst wat armoede betekent: honderden mensen die staan aan te schuiven voor een broodmaaltijd. Ik was verontwaardigd en begon me in de problematiek te verdiepen, onder meer door te kijken naar projecten in India en China. Samen met Marijke Moens van Daklozenhulp Antwerpen en enkele early believers hebben we dan ArmenTeKort opgericht.’
De vzw mikt op de naar schatting 8000 mensen die in Antwerpen in kansarmoede leven. Door hun gebrek aan eigenwaarde “pakt” de traditionele hulpverlening niet. Het is een typisch buddyproject: kansrijke vrijwilligers doen activiteiten met kansarme burgers. Maar het is wel de bedoeling dat zij tijdens het traject op zoek gaan naar hun krachten en talenten. ‘Het bijzondere is dat wij niet mikken op de typische vrijwilligers die op zoek zijn naar een zinvolle tijdsbesteding. Ons doelpubliek bestaat uit drukbezette mensen, ondernemers bijvoorbeeld, die toch tijd willen maken voor zo’n engagement.
Workshop communicatie voor Teylingencollege 2015Karen Collet
Jaarlijks komen leerlingen van het Honourstraject van het Teylingencollege naar de TU Delft voor een stoomcursus Marketing en Communicatie. Na inleidingen op het gebied van marketing en communicatie gaan de leerlingen zelf aan de slag om een marketingactieplan te maken voor hun project in het kader van de Jet-Net Enterprise Cup. Dit jaar (2015) namen voor het eerst nog twee andere scholen deel.
This document summarizes an alternative test methodology being developed at the U.S. Army Materials Technology Laboratory to rank the ballistic performance of ceramic armor materials. The method involves firing a tungsten long rod at constant velocity through laterally confined ceramic samples of varying thickness and into a semi-infinite steel plate. The depth of residual penetration (DOP) into the steel plate is used to construct a ballistic performance map for each ceramic material across a range of areal densities. This allows direct comparison of different ceramic materials and eliminates variables from armor design and backplate composition. Preliminary results using this method agree with conventional ranking methods and provide a more standardized evaluation for acceptance testing and analysis of factors influencing ballistic performance.
Introduction & Work Package 5 for valorisation meeting 1disgi
This document summarizes a project aimed at developing and implementing smart grids in India to address energy poverty. The project will:
1) Develop a smart grid prototype in India while also identifying ethical and societal aspects through multidisciplinary research.
2) Involve private sector funding and a stakeholder panel to provide input and feedback throughout the project.
3) Use design criteria that anticipates societal/ethical implications, involves interested parties, and adjusts based on expected implications over the planned 4 year timeline with 3 post-doc positions focused on ethics, sociology and technology.
This document discusses levels of management, functions of managers, managerial skills, and management styles. It describes top, middle, and supervisory levels of management and compares their responsibilities. The functions of managers are planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. Key managerial skills include conceptual, interpersonal, technical, and decision-making skills. The main management styles discussed are autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire.

Services Marketing Chapter 9 Promoting an Interactive Service ExperienceDr. John V. Padua
This document discusses promoting services through integrated marketing communications. It emphasizes using all elements of the marketing mix to communicate with customers and tangibilize intangible services. The promotional mix of advertising, sales promotions, personal selling, and publicity are key. Advertising aims to gain customers' attention, interest, desire, and action. Sales promotions can attract customers and enhance perceptions. Personal selling must facilitate quality assessment and tangibilize the service. Publicity from delighted customers is most effective. The growing role of the internet in interactive and targeted promotion of services is also examined.
Etching is used in IC fabrication to remove unwanted materials and leave a required pattern. There are two main types: wet etching uses liquid chemicals, while plasma etching uses ion bombardment in a plasma. Plasma etching is faster, easier, and more directional than wet etching. It allows for anisotropic etching profiles with better resolution, cleanliness and process control compared to isotropic wet etching.
