Mikaela Navidad had a fun-filled 2-week Christmas holiday spending time with family and friends. There were four memorable outings - a clan reunion where she reunited with relatives on her mother's side, celebrating with both her grandfather's and grandmother's families, two nights of baking and playing with friends, and a relaxing beach getaway to end the holiday break.

This document provides tips for creating non-boring presentations at Ignite events. It recommends avoiding animation, clipart, bullet points, and templates. Instead, presenters should plan thoroughly, keep presentations simple, use imagery, and focus on themselves rather than their slides. Creating engaging presentations in this minimalist style takes time but emphasizes the presenter over visual elements.

A União Europeia está preocupada com o aumento da desinformação online e propôs novas regras para combater as notícias falsas. As novas regras exigiriam que as plataformas de mídia social monitorassem o conteúdo ativamente e removessem rapidamente qualquer conteúdo considerado falso ou enganoso que possa prejudicar a saúde pública ou a segurança. Algumas organizações de defesa da liberdade de expressão temem que as novas regras possam limitar a liberdade de expressão e o debate público.
The document summarizes research being conducted on Warburgia ugandensis, an important agroforestry tree used traditionally for malaria treatment. The research aims to identify genes and genomic regions related to active compounds in W. ugandensis. The PhD student is using DNA and RNA-based approaches like PCR, genomic libraries, and microarrays to analyze gene expression and methylation patterns between tissues and genotypes with different anti-malarial properties. The goal is to develop markers for plant breeding to obtain genotypes with high anti-malarial effectiveness and understand how environment impacts this trait. Initial results show promise in identifying new genes involved in sesquiterpene biosynthesis in this underexplored species.
This document discusses amending the US Constitution and the balance of power between the president and Congress. It outlines two steps for amending the Constitution - proposing amendments through Congress or a constitutional convention, and then ratifying through state legislatures or conventions. For amending, the main difference between using legislatures or conventions is whether representatives or the people directly vote. The document also notes that the main source of conflict between the president and Congress is differing political parties, and that recent presidents have gained power through executive agreements and aggressively requesting legislation.

This document discusses using career advancement principles to improve intimate relationships. It suggests focusing on trust and commitment in the relationship. The key is dedicating focused time to your partner to find success in the relationship.
This short document discusses media and expertise. It states that all media is social and that the reader is not an expert on this topic. It recommends reading McLuhan to gain more understanding.
This document summarizes a study examining how satisfaction of basic psychological needs and other factors predict autonomous and controlled motivation for participating in professional development opportunities. The study surveyed 351 employed individuals, measuring their basic need satisfaction, psychological well-being, personality, and perceptions of their work environment, as well as their autonomous and controlled motivation levels. Results showed psychological well-being was the strongest predictor of motivation, explaining 26-27% of the variance. Basic need satisfaction explained a smaller 11% of variance. Personal growth was the single best predictor of both autonomous and controlled motivation. The study suggests further research is needed examining how basic needs interact over time to influence motivation.

This document provides an overview of the origins and early development of participatory research from 1970-2005 as reflected on by Budd Hall, a key figure in the movement. Some key points:
- Participatory research originated in Tanzania in the early 1970s to describe community-based approaches to knowledge creation that combined investigation, education, and action.
- The concept spread through networks in the 1970s/80s and was taken up by universities and social movements in the late 20th century.
- Hall was influenced by thinkers like Paulo Freire and experiences in Tanzania that challenged conventional research paradigms and highlighted the political nature of knowledge creation.
- Early participatory research projects in the 1970s
The document discusses plans for a project called Propoor Rewards for Environmental Services in Africa (PRESA). The objectives are to identify opportunities to link existing projects to propoor rewards for environmental services in Africa, strengthen technical and livelihood components, and identify opportunities for more integrated future projects. The project would build on the Rewards for Upland Poor Environmental Services (RUPES) project in Asia by establishing core sites in countries like Uganda, Tanzania, and Kenya to test prototype reward mechanisms for environmental services provided by smallholder farmers.

Nadia Moffett, Miss North Carolina USA 2010, shares three life lessons. The first is that personal relationships are key to success in life. The second is about helping others as a way to also help yourself. The third is about seeing difficulties not as breakdowns but as opportunities for breakthroughs.
This document lists notable modernist houses designed by architects in North Carolina between 2000-2009, including a house designed by Kenneth Hobgood in Durham from 2002, one by Thomas Crowder in Raleigh from 2000, and houses by Mike Rantilla in Raleigh from 2008-2009. It provides contact information for a website with more information on modernist homes in the Triangle area of North Carolina.
