1) The document discusses the history and development of fluorescent lighting.
2) It describes how Thomas Edison's incandescent light bulb led to the invention of the fluorescent light, which uses a mercury vapor gas and phosphor coating to produce light more efficiently.
3) The key components of a fluorescent light include a glass tube, electrodes, mercury vapor, phosphor coating, ballast, and starter.
The document outlines events and activities surrounding the International Day of Peace on September 21, 2011. It lists exhibits at the Oklahoma National Memorial Museum honoring peace, including a Hope Trunk exhibit and pinwheels. It also provides information on making pinwheels and links to websites about the Peace One Day documentary, Six Billion Paths to Peace project, planting trees for the environment, and the We Are The World campaign to inspire solutions for human needs, ecosystems, and culture of peace. Activities are planned involving food banks, Skype calls, peace exhibits, and a pinwheel festival to celebrate the International Day of Peace.
Jeremy Hall developed an architectonic, or systematic framework, for structuring the design of computer simulations for business training. The architectonic is based on analyzing needs and constraints, extracting core values of effective and efficient learning, and exploring design elements like the simulation model and delivery process. This translates into an architecture that standardizes 83-98% of the simulation while allowing for flexibility and customization. Using this architectonic improved development time and allowed old simulations to be re-engineered and re-launched.
The document discusses basic human needs like food, water, shelter, clothing, medical care, and education. It notes that sometimes people lack these needs due to reasons like natural disasters, war, loss of job, poverty, accidents, bad economy, or prejudice. Two charitable organizations are then described that work to provide these basic needs - Pambe Ghana, a school in Ghana that provides education, and Doctors Without Borders, an international medical organization. The American Red Cross is also summarized as providing disaster relief both in the US and globally after events like fires, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and more.

The third graders at Casady School conducted a service-learning project where they learned about fair trade chocolate and different charities. They sold fair trade chocolate bars and got to decide which charities would receive the profits. The project involved four main components - learning about fair trade and charities, promoting the chocolate sale to the school, selling the chocolate, and selecting which charities would receive the money raised through a voting process. The goals were to increase the students' global awareness and sense of social responsibility.
