The document proposes a three-phase plan to transform an unused superblock in Barcelona into a productive "telecommuting city" by first activating home offices and unused garages, then adding modular workspaces, and finally redefining public and private spaces at the urban scale through accessible interior blocks. The goal is to generate local economy through telecommuting while making the community more adaptable. Diagrams and renderings show how underutilized areas could be transformed at different scales over time.
SXSW 2017 Meetup Proposal: No Pants Required! Telecommuting like a Bossmaytaldahan
Being an awesome telecommuter may look easy but it is hard work. At this SXSW 2017 Meet up join us to share ideas, learn tips and tricks on how to be an effective & productive remote employee!
The document summarizes the top five insights from SXSW 2016 related to technology trends. The insights discussed include: 1) personalization and marketing trends like predictive targeting, 2) security and privacy challenges from increased cybercrime, 3) the need to increase women in tech jobs through approaches like big data, 4) the importance of communicating differently across devices, and 5) that "dragon" startups with slower growth may be wiser investments than "unicorns" valued over $1 billion. The summary provides a high-level overview of the key topics and trends discussed at SXSW 2016.
This document discusses work-life balance and solutions for achieving it. It begins by defining work-life balance and noting that over 60% of respondents feel unable to balance their personal and professional lives. Competition, career ambitions, and long work hours are cited as reasons for the imbalance. The document then outlines HR solutions like flexible work schedules, family-oriented activities, and leave policies. It discusses benefits like increased productivity, commitment, and reduced stress for both organizations and individuals.

Low BRCA1 gene expression is associated with
increased invasiveness and influences the response of
breast carcinoma (BC) to chemotherapeutics. However,
expression of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes has not been
completely characterized in premenopausal BC. We analyzed
the clinical and immunohistochemical correlates of
BRCA1 and BRCA2 expression in young BC women. We
studied 62 women (mean age 38.8 years) who developed
BC before the age of 45 years. BRCA1 and BRCA2 mRNA
expression was assessed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase
chain reaction (RT-PCR) and that of HER-2 and
p53 proteins by immunohistochemistry. Body mass index
(BMI) C27 (52%) and a declared family history of BC
(26%) were the main risk factors. Ductal infiltrative adenocarcinoma
was found in 86% of the cases (tumor size
[5 cm in 48%). Disease stages I–IV occurred in 2, 40, 55,
and 3%, respectively (73% implicating lymph nodes).
Women aged B35 years (24%) had more family history of
cervical cancer, stage III/IV disease, HER-2 positivity, and
lower BRCA1 expression than older women (P-.05).
BRCA1 and BRCA2 expression correlated in healthy, but
not in tumor tissues (TT). Neither BRCA1 nor BRCA2
expression was associated with tumor histology, differentiation,
nodal metastasis or p53 and HER-2 expression.
After multivariate analysis, only disease stage explained
BRCA1 mRNA levels in the lowest quartile. Premenopausal
BC has aggressive clinical and molecular
characteristics. Low BRCA1 mRNA expression is associated
mainly with younger ages and advanced clinical stage
of premenopausal BC. BRCA2 expression is not associated
with disease severity in young BC women.

The document includes essays on death and obituary writing as well as remembrances of individuals she wrote about, including Phyllis Knight, a pioneering local television journalist in Louisville.
The document discusses the kleshas, which are obstacles to spiritual practice and enlightenment according to yoga philosophy. There are five main kleshas: avidya (ignorance), asmita (ego), raga (attachment), dvesha (aversion), and abhinivesha (fear of death). Overcoming the kleshas allows one to attain equanimity and move beyond reactivity and attachments to experience reality as it is. Understanding and addressing the kleshas can help one progress spiritually by bringing inner obstacles into awareness for analysis and transcendence.
Резултати от анкета за Ипотечни кредити Moite Pari
Повечето ползващи ипотечен кредит не са запознати с начина на формиране на лихвата
Резултатите от проучването на www.MoitePari.bg сочат, че 36% от потребителите ползват ипотечен кредит (от 1 394 анкетирани), в същото време 42% от неползващите имат желание в съвсем близко бъдеще (до 1 година) да кандидатстват за такъв. Този засилен интерес, може да се обясни с това, че жилищните кредити добиха особено висока популярност през последните 10 г. Бумът на строителството на нови жилища и традиционно заложеният стремеж на българина да притежава собствен имот за свой дом (посочено като цел на кредита от 71% от анкетираните), логично доведоха до ръст на търсенето на кредити за тази цел. Това даде нов тласък на кредитиране, което допреди това беше много по-слабо популярно.

The document outlines various life insurance plans offered by a life insurance company, including rates and eligibility requirements. It provides details on final expense, whole life, term life, and other plans. Requirements include answering health questions, age limits, minimum face amounts, and restrictions based on state. Premium amounts and additional benefits are specified for different plans, issue ages, and face value amounts.
This paper presents a new algorithm based on the Baum-Welch algorithm for estimating the parameters of a hidden Markov model that allows each state to be observed using a different set of features rather than relying on a common feature set. The algorithm uses likelihood ratios calculated from low-dimensional sufficient statistics for each state rather than high-dimensional probability density functions. This allows more accurate and robust parameter estimation compared to standard feature-based HMMs using a common feature set. The algorithm is mathematically equivalent to the standard Baum-Welch algorithm but avoids estimating high-dimensional densities.
Online learning involves students and instructors being in different physical locations and using technology to access course materials, interact with each other, and receive support. It has been referred to using various terms but generally implies distance learning through electronic means. Web-enhanced courses supplement traditional in-person classes without reducing meeting times, while hybrid courses combine both online and in-class elements. Fully online courses take place entirely on the internet without physical class meetings. Asynchronous learning is non-simultaneous communication using tools like email and forums, while synchronous learning involves real-time interaction such as videoconferencing and chat.
The document discusses the student's media product, a magazine for their sixth form school. It summarizes the key conventions used, including a masthead, left sidebar, and barcode. The contents page includes varied fonts and pictures linked to article pages. The intended audience is sixth form students, and the magazine represents various social groups within the school. It would likely be distributed through the school or its website. Through constructing the magazine, the student learned Photoshop skills like adding lens flares and how to upload work to websites like Slideshare.

"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.
