The Moche were an ancient civilization that flourished in Peru from around 100 AD to 800 AD. They were known for producing highly artistic pottery and paintings, some of which depicted naked human figures and inappropriate or sexual acts. The Moche's largest structures were their Temple of the Sun and Temple of the Moon. Their civilization went into decline around 500-800 AD, possibly due to environmental disasters like El Nino that damaged crops and led to war and unrest.

The Impact of Science & Technology on Victorian London
The document discusses the impact of science and technology on Victorian London. It focuses on Joseph Bazalgette's role in improving London's drainage system in the 1850s. Faced with recurring cholera epidemics, Bazalgette implemented an unprecedented sewage system as chief engineer of the Metropolitan Board of Works. His intercepting sewer network diverted human waste from the Thames through over 80 miles of large sewers. This revolutionary infrastructure project helped eliminate cholera in London and established Bazalgette as a visionary engineer who saved many lives.
Unit 3 The First Mass Media Revolution
The document discusses the impact of communication technologies like writing, paper, and the printing press on society. It notes that writing was considered more important than battles or constitutions. The printing press in particular is credited with having a major social and political impact by enabling the spread of ideas. Martin Luther used the printing press to disseminate his writings and translations of the Bible, which helped drive the Protestant Reformation forward. His writings questioned established authorities and gave individual freedom of conscience.

This document discusses the concept of rewilding abandoned places through case studies. It provides examples of abandoned places that are being reclaimed by nature, including ghost towns, exclusion zones from conflicts or disasters, and areas where human occupation has ceased. Specific locations mentioned include the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone in Ukraine, the Five Sisters bings in West Lothian, Scotland, and slate islands in Argyll, Scotland. The document discusses the ecology and psychology of abandoned places and invites the reader to get involved in studying rewilding and sharing related case studies, vignettes, and artifacts.

CI 350 WebQuest
This document is a webquest about Christopher Columbus that provides links to various websites about his life and voyages. It contains 10 multiple choice questions that students must answer by visiting the linked websites. The questions cover topics like Columbus's goals for his voyages, the ships he used, his interactions with native peoples, and the Columbian Exchange that resulted from his travels. The webquest aims to teach students important details about Columbus while engaging them through an interactive online scavenger hunt.
Goundings Volume 8
This article examines the myth that the 6th century Irish monk Columba first landed in Scotland at Keil Point in Kintyre in 563 AD. Through an archaeological investigation of the site, the authors argue there is no evidence to support this claim. They analyze artifacts at Keil Point that have been used to perpetuate the myth but find no documentary or archaeological evidence. The article demonstrates how accepted history can be challenged and explains that the Columba myth has dominated Scottish history, effectively suppressing other aspects. While the myth may have conveyed cultural identity, the authors aim to uncover the truth through multiple methods including archaeology.

Adoption Funding - More than dollars & cents
This document discusses innovative ways to fund adoptions through church adoption funds and other programs. It provides the story of Wyatt, an orphan with many medical issues, to show why adoption funding is important. It then outlines several options for churches to establish adoption funds, including creating their own non-profit, managing funds internally, or partnering with an organization like Lifesong for Orphans. Benefits of partnering include flexibility, quick setup, and minimal administrative burden on the church. Real-life examples show how families have funded international and domestic adoptions through various grants, loans, donations and tax credits.

2. The author calculates the speed, angle, height, distance traveled, and force using information from the video to determine if the jump was possible.
3. The analysis finds that with a 70 degree ramp, the distance and height achieved in the video were not possible. However, with a shallower 15 degree ramp and higher initial speed, the jump could have been possible.

Europe
The document provides information about life in medieval Europe and the development of feudalism. It describes how feudalism established a hierarchy with the king at the top giving land to nobles in exchange for military service, who then provided knights to the king. Peasants lived on and farmed the lands of nobles in exchange for protection. The system began to break down as the threat of Islam spurred the Crusades, during which new ideas and technologies spread to Europe. This led to the rise of strong states that financed exploration to find new trade routes, bypassing Islamic control of existing routes. Key figures like Henry the Navigator and Vasco da Gama advanced ship technologies and exploration.

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
