The document discusses the Terra Resort hotel in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, the first in a collection of green luxury hotels. It was built to be LEED-certified with a minimal environmental impact while still providing an indulgent experience for guests. Features include energy efficient windows, chemical-free cleaning, and a water system that reduces usage. While start-up costs were higher, operating costs have been equal to or less than comparable hotels due to energy and water savings of 35%. The hotel successfully provides both luxury and an environmentally responsible experience that attracts guests and pride in employees.
This document summarizes a study on Iraqi refugees resettling in Detroit, Michigan. It finds that:
1) Many of the refugees are struggling to adjust to life in Detroit, dealing with issues like enrolling children in school, obtaining driver's licenses, and coping with trauma from their experiences in Iraq.
2) Over 60% of the refugees surveyed had a college education, yet most were still unemployed due to issues like lack of language skills and transportation challenges.
3) The refugees came from professional backgrounds in Iraq as professors, teachers, doctors, and engineers, but were having difficulty establishing their careers in Detroit due to the difficulties of adjusting to life as a refugee.
This document summarizes and compares four DNS server software options: BIND, NSD, djbdns, and PrimDNS. It finds that BIND has the highest memory usage but fastest query times, while djbdns has the lowest memory usage but does not support DNSSEC. NSD and PrimDNS offer alternatives to BIND with lower memory usage and comparable performance.
This document outlines the course structure and content for an International Certificate in Education for Preschool Professionals. The certificate includes 5 core courses: 1) Principles and Practices in Preschool Education, 2) Child Development and Learning, 3) Curriculum Development and Pedagogy, 4) Personal Growth and Professional Development, and 5) Safety, Health and Nutrition. The document discusses using a collaborative learning model where learners create knowledge rather than just consuming content, and assessments focus on learning rather than just testing outcomes. Completing this certificate along with a Bachelor's degree in Early Years Education from a UK university would qualify someone as a preschool educator.
S(cool) Mystery was introduced in the 2010/2011 academic year for students in grades 6-9 (ages 11-15) at the school. It is an electronic student book that allows for communication between parents and teachers, such as parents writing apology letters, and provides students with marks and notes from teachers on a scale of 1 to 5. While it offers improvements over paper student books like saving trees, there are also potential complications from issues like poor networks or broken computers.

3. SÖZ SANATLARI
1. Abartma (Mübalağa)
Bir şeyin niteliklerini veya bir olayı olduğundan fazla büyüterek veya küçülterek
anlatmaya abartma denir.
Örnek
» Çantayı taşımaktan kolum koptu.
Bu cümlede kişi, kolunun fiziksel olarak koptuğunu değil, “çok yorulduğunu”
abartma yaparak anlatmaktadır.
» Bir ah çeksem dağı taşı eritir
Gözüm yaşı değirmeni yürütür
Bu hasretlik beni dahi çürütür
Bana sıla da bir, gurbet il de bir
Karacaoğlan bu dörtlükte memleketinden ayrı olmanın verdiği acıyı abartarak
anlatmıştır. Çünkü gerçekte gözyaşı dağları eritmez, değirmeni yürütmez.

7. 2. Benzetme (Teşbih)
Anlatımı kuvvetlendirmek, sözün etkisini artırmak için aralarında değişik
yönlerden ilgi bulunan iki şeyden zayıf olanın , kuvvetli olana benzetilmesine
benzetme denir.
Çoğunlukla benzetme yapılırken birbirleri ile ilgi kurulan varlıklar arasındaki
ilişki bilinmektedir.
Tam bir benzetmede dört temel unsur vardır:
► Benzeyen: Zayıf unsur.
► Benzetilen: Kuvvetli unsur.
► Benzetme yönü: İki unsur arasındaki benzetme sebebi.
► Benzetme edatı: Benzetmede kullanılan “gibi, kadar” edatlarıdır.
8. Örnek
» Serkan keçi gibi inatçı bir çocuktur.
Benzeyen Benzetilen Benz.Edatı Benz. Yönü
Bu cümlede “Serkan”, “inatçılık” bakımından “keçi”ye benzetilmiştir.
Burada “keçi”nin inatçılık özelliği herkes tarafından bilindiğinden, benzetme çok
rahat anlaşılmakta, söz daha etkili olarak anlatılmaktadır.
» Kükremiş sel gibiyim, bendimi çiğner, aşarım
Yırtarım dağları, enginlere sığmam taşarım
İstiklâl Marşı’ndan alınan bu dizelerin ilkinde şair kendisini “sel”e benzetmiştir.
İkinci dizede ise “dağları yırtarım” sözüyle abartma sanatına başvurmuştur.

11. 3. Kişileştirme (Teşhis)
İnsan dışındaki varlıklara insana özgü özelliklerin verilmesine kişileştirme
denir. Bu sanatta hayvanlara, bitkilere ve diğer varlıklara insana özgü özellikler
verilerek ifade daha çekici hâle getirilir, duygular daha güzel anlatılır.
Örnek
» Köyün çayı boş yere akmaktan sıkılıyor, bir bostanı sulayacağı günlerin
gelmesini iple çekiyordu.
Bu cümlede “köyün çayı” kişileştirilmiştir.
“Sıkılmak”, “iple çekmek (sabırsızlıkla beklemek)” insana özgü niteliklerdir.
İnsana özgü nitelikler “köyün çayı”na verilerek çay kişileştirilmiştir.
» Toplanırken göklerde bulutlar yığın yığın
Hırçın bir fırtınayı düşünüyordu deniz.
Bu dizelerde “kişileştirilme” vardır. Burada “düşünüyordu” denerek “deniz”
kişileştirilmiştir.

14. 4. Konuşturma (İntak)
İnsan dışındaki varlıkları konuşturma, onların ağzından söz söyleme sanatına
intak(konuşturma) denir.
İntak (konuşturma), genellikle teşhis (kişileştirme) sanatı ile birlikte kullanılır.
Teşhis sanatı ile insan özelliği içinde gösterilen varlıklar konuşturulduğu zaman
intak sanatı yapılmış olur.
Örnek
» Akşam rüzgârları der ki Ali’ye:
“Gözler ileriye, gönül geriye…”
Sanki köydekiler görünsün diye
Tepeler alçalır, dereler dolar!
Bu dörtlükte “rüzgârlar” önce kişileştirilmiş, daha sonra da konuşturulmuştur.
Zaten şiirde intak varsa, konuşturulan varlığın sözleri de vardır.
» Google: Ben her şeyi bilirim.
Facebook: Ben herkesi tanırım.
İnternet: Ben olmasam ikiniz de işe yaramazsınız!
Elektrik: Tartışmayı fazla uzatmayın yoksa hepinizin işini bitiririm!
