This document discusses the sustainability of community radio stations. It outlines core principles like community ownership and participation. Challenges include finding funds to set up stations and create ongoing funding. Sustainability has social, institutional, financial and technological aspects. Socially, stations should respect local culture and provide useful information. Institutionally, they build capacity through training and content sharing. Financially, they rely on advertising, sponsorships and studio rentals to operate at low cost. Technologically, they aim to choose robust, low-cost equipment and train local staff in maintenance. The document asks questions about how inclusive and participatory community radio management is.
SPSS is widely used program for statistical analysis in social sciences, particularly in education and research. However, because of its potential, it is also widely used by market researchers, health-care researchers, survey organizations, governments and, most notably, data miners and big data professionals.
As we have learned in the previous lesson, Statistics is a science that studies data. Hence to teach Statistics, real data set is recommend to use. In this lesson, we present an activity where the students will be asked to provide some data that will be submitted for consolidation by the teacher for future lessons. Data on heights and weights, for instance, will be used for calculating Body Mass Index in the integrative lesson. Students will also be given the perspective that the data they provided is part of a bigger group of data as the same data will be asked from much larger groups (the entire class, all Grade 11 students in school, all Grade 11 students in the district). The contextualization of data will also be discussed.
This powerpoint presentation shows how Standard Normal Distribution is calculated. it discusses about what is Standard Normal Distribution, and how it is relevant and used in schools. It also shows an easy step in solving the Standard Normal Distribution.

This report was submitted to the City of Somerville, MA in December, 2005. Written by a human rights activist who focuses on disAbility rights issues, this report particularly focused on developing ideas to help the City of Somerville respond to the needs of low-income individuals with disAbilities in Somerville, MA- who constitute approximately 20% of the city's population- and over 33% of the low-income community of Somerville.
The Somerville Commission for Persons with Disabilities (SCPD) unanimously voted to submit this as a Commission-vetted product before it was hand-delivered and emailed to mayor Curtatone, the Office of Community Development and Sponsored Programs, and many other municipal Department directors, subrecipient non-profits throughout Somerville, and several other Commissions, iin the week of December 15, 2005.
2011: This municipality's disAbility access and inclusion gaps persist. The only choice open to activists is to submit State and federal complaints until the city's leadership begins to understand and acknowledge that people with disAbilities have legitimate, equal rights- and abilities.

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

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
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.
