Innovation needs to be ethical if it desires to be sustainable. Measuring ethics is usually lagging however measuring the progress towards an ethical culture is leading.
The document summarizes several surveys on e-learning trends in 2008. The Ambient Insight 2008 survey found e-learning growth forecast at 8% with negative growth of 5% in large enterprises who still represent 48% of corporate spending. Demand for e-learning doubled in small organizations as it became more affordable. The Kineo 2008 survey and Bersin Research survey in November 2008 also examined e-learning trends and future expenditures. Observers commented that e-learning's share of learning hours could increase to 30-50% during an economic downturn as it provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional classrooms.
The start of the school year is near. While there is still a need to get back to the basics with pencils and textbooks, digital influences continue to increase and device ownership is at an all-time high. Parents’ household financial situation is holding consistent with last year, and so too is families’ average spending on school supplies. In addition, cyber security continues to be top of mind, as the majority of consumers demonstrate concerns about the protection of their personal data. These trends and more are highlighted in our latest surveys: www.deloitte.com/us/2015Back2School.

This document summarizes the results of a survey and research on thought leadership conducted with over 1,600 global executives. The key findings were:
1) Executives feel overwhelmed by the large volume of content they encounter and are becoming more selective in what they consume.
2) Thought leadership can build loyalty, influence purchasing decisions, and generate advocacy if it is compelling and centered around audiences' interests rather than just profiling the brand.
3) Marketers face challenges producing effective thought leadership due to a lack of internal alignment, focus on differentiating their brand over audiences' interests, and not involving all key stakeholders in planning.
Strenuous activities like mountain climbing affect the circulatory and respiratory systems in several ways:
The heart rate increases to pump more oxygenated blood to cells. Breathing rate and depth also increase to provide more oxygen intake and carbon dioxide removal.
When reaching high altitude peaks, breathing and heart rates remain elevated even at rest to supply more oxygen to the body in the low air pressure environment.
Symptoms of hypoxia or altitude sickness include rapid breathing, fatigue, dizziness and cyanosis. Treatments include supplemental oxygen, blood transfusions, and medications.
The effects on circulatory and respiratory systems do not differ significantly between male and female climbers, as endurance and ability to adapt

Aunt Gracie was excited for her niece and nephews to come over for afternoon tea, but Cody the cookie was anxious. While Aunt Gracie was on the phone, Cody jumped off the plate of cookies and fell to the ground, shaking himself off before attempting to escape through what he thought was a cat flap in the door but was actually the dog Rex, who caught and crunched Cody in his mouth.
This lecture discusses the microscopic theory of superconductivity, including the BCS theory. It introduces Cooper pairs, where two electrons with opposite spin experience an effective attraction mediated by phonons. The many-electron problem is then solved using the Bogoliubov-Valatin transformation to diagonalize the Hamiltonian. This leads to a gap in the excitation spectrum, where no excitations are possible below an energy threshold equal to the size of the energy gap. Superconductivity is explained by electrons forming bound pairs that condense into a coherent quantum mechanical state.
This document discusses the circulatory systems of humans, fish, and reptiles. It compares key features of their hearts such as size, number of chambers, and separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The functions of blood cells are also outlined, including their roles in transport, storage, immune defense, and blood clotting.
