Mesopotamia, located between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in modern-day Iraq, was the site of early civilization and the development of cities. Many city-states formed along the fertile rivers, engaging in agriculture, trade, and developing writing and other early innovations. However, conflicts between the city-states weakened them, allowing the Babylonians to eventually conquer the region in around 1759 BC, marking the decline of Sumerian civilization.

The document defines several terms related to hydroelectric power generation. It defines hydroelectric power as electricity produced using waterpower from dams. It describes dams as barriers built across waterways to impound water, with spillways allowing excess water to flow around. It also defines other key components of hydroelectric systems like turbines, which are rotary engines turned by flowing water to generate electricity, and transformers, which convert the output of generators into other voltages or currents.

During Queen Elizabeth I's reign from 1558-1603, education began at home, and men and women had distinct styles of dress dictated by the Renaissance era. Religion depended on the monarch, with Protestants and Catholics coexisting during Elizabeth's Protestant-based rule. Feasts, fairs and festivals played an important community role and were mandatory by law, celebrating jobs, marriage, and holidays each month. Arranged marriages were common, with love not considered important and marriages often arranged for family benefit from ages 12-14 with parental consent.

This document appears to be a presentation about a career in graphic design. It discusses the types of work graphic designers do including branding, print design, and web design. It outlines a typical designer's day, discussing both design work and business/life responsibilities. It also addresses compensation levels at different experience levels and education requirements. Finally, it notes both positive and negative aspects of working in the field as well as resources for further information.
The document defines several terms related to hydroelectric power generation. It defines hydroelectric power as electricity produced using waterpower from dams. It describes dams as barriers built across watercourses to impound water, with spillways allowing excess water to flow around the obstruction. It also defines other mechanical components involved in hydroelectric systems like turbines, which are rotary engines that convert the kinetic energy of moving water into rotational motion, and generators, which transform the rotational motion of turbines into electrical energy.

The mind is the medium - Jon Sandruck @ Big Design 2016Jon Sandruck
No matter what you design, its ultimate destination is the human mind. And, just like any other medium, there are limitations to consider when you design for it. Knowing that, how can you apply a basic understanding of cognitive psychology and behavioral economics to your design work? Can you make cognitive bias work for you instead of against you? By thinking about your user’s attention in an economic model, you can design to create value, as well as preserve it. You can help your users spend their attention wisely, and invest it well.
