The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise has also been shown to increase gray matter volume in the brain and reduce risks for conditions like Alzheimer's and dementia.
Kesukarelawanan adalah kegiatan sukarela yang memberikan manfaat bagi masyarakat rentan dan diorganisir oleh perhimpunan nasional. Manajemen relawan mencakup kebijakan, pemantauan, serta pelaksanaan program dan advokasi, dengan penekanan pada pelatihan dan peran relawan. Tantangan dalam manajemen relawan termasuk kebutuhan yang semakin meningkat dan kesulitan dalam merekrut serta mempertahankan relawan.
Dokumen ini menjabarkan kode etik yang disepakati oleh tujuh organisasi kemanusiaan internasional untuk mengatur standar perilaku dalam kegiatan bantuan. Terdapat sepuluh prinsip dasar dalam kode etik ini, termasuk komitmen untuk memberikan bantuan tanpa membedakan ras dan menjaga independensi dari politik. Kode etik ini bertujuan untuk memastikan efektivitas dan akuntabilitas dalam penyampaian bantuan kemanusiaan.
The document provides an overview of how the Global Positioning System works using 24 satellites orbiting the Earth to transmit location and distance data to GPS receivers, it also describes how the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies can use GPS for mapping, navigation, and storing waypoints to help with activities like field assessments and finding routes. GPS is generally accurate to within 10 meters but can have some errors from factors like atmospheric delays, multipath signals, and clock inaccuracies.
The document outlines the Code of Conduct for the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. It consists of 10 fundamental principles for humanitarian relief operations, including: the humanitarian imperative prioritizing alleviation of human suffering; providing aid based on need regardless of race, creed, or nationality; ensuring aid is not used to further political or religious agendas; and building disaster response based on local capacities. It aims to establish standards of behavior for humanitarian workers and maintain independence, effectiveness, and impact of relief efforts.
NVIS (Near-Vertical Incidence Skywave) propagation allows for local to medium distance amateur radio communications between 0-250 miles by transmitting signals at a high angle that return from the ionosphere at a similar angle. This fills in the "skip zone" of ordinary propagation where signals pass through the ionosphere at a low angle. To use NVIS successfully, the antenna must radiate signals at a high angle and the correct frequency band must be chosen, which is typically 10% below the critical frequency of the F2 ionospheric layer, depending on the time of day, year, and solar cycle. Common antenna choices are dipoles lowered to around 1/4 wavelength high.
This document provides information about various satellite communication options for FACT including Inmarsat, Thuraya, and Iridium. It discusses the coverage areas, features, and costs of Mini-M, BGAN, and RBGAN terminals from Inmarsat. Key points are that Mini-M provides basic voice and slow data worldwide but is being phased out. BGAN provides faster data and voice with slightly higher costs. Pointing the antenna is important for good signal strength. Overall satellite communication can enable connectivity but use should be planned carefully due to high costs.
This paper extends the Kaufman-Roberts formula for calculating blocking probabilities in multirate CDMA networks offering elastic services. It introduces a model that captures soft blocking and establishes lower and upper bounds on steady-state and class-wise blocking probabilities through a reversible Markov chain approximation. The results demonstrate the efficacy of the method in managing elastic traffic and optimizing system performance.
The document describes a presentation given to the Stanford Amateur Radio Club on March 14th, 2006 about upgrading the club's repeater to 1.2GHz. It discusses replacing the old repeater with a new ICOM repeater, new antenna, feed line, and controller. The presentation also covers adding IRLP and Echolink connectivity, as well as linking to the W6RLW repeater network. Propagation differences at 1.2GHz are reviewed along with the advantages and disadvantages of operating at this higher frequency.
The document outlines the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies' (IFRC) Strategy 2020. It summarizes the achievements and lessons learned from Strategy 2010. Strategy 2020 aims to streamline efforts, recognize development work, build strong National Societies, clarify the auxiliary role, and have more open partnerships. The strategy has three goals: save lives from disasters, enable healthy living, and promote social inclusion. It also outlines three enabling actions: build National Society capacities, pursue humanitarian diplomacy, and function effectively as the IFRC.
Dokumen ini menjelaskan sejarah dan prinsip-prinsip Gerakan Internasional Palang Merah dan Bulan Sabit Merah, dimulai dari pendirian organisasi pada tahun 1863 hingga pengakuan berbagai lambang perlindungan seperti Palang Merah, Bulan Sabit Merah, dan Kristal Merah. Ditekankan pentingnya netralitas dan otonomi dalam tugas kemanusiaan, serta prinsip dasar yang meliputi kemanusiaan, kesamaan, kenetralan, kemandirian, kesukarelaan, kesatuan, dan kesemestaan. Selain itu, juga dibahas mengenai struktur organisasi dan tugas Palang Merah Indonesia dalam penanganan bencana dan konflik bersenjata.
The document discusses the impact of climate change on global agriculture. It highlights the challenges farmers face, including extreme weather patterns and changing crop yields. The document also suggests strategies for adaptation and mitigation.
The document lists the same names repeatedly over multiple lines. It contains a list of 16 Greek names that are repeated in the same order across the text with no other information provided. The names Eleni Rimantonaki through Yiannis Rigakis are cycled through and listed multiple times in succession.
The document discusses lessons learned from the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) that could help inform implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD). It outlines both successes and challenges of the UNCRC, including its focus on disability issues in Article 23. Key successes included increased scrutiny of government reports, a general comment on disabled children's rights, and greater self-advocacy. However, violations of disabled children's rights persisted due to neglect, abuse, segregation, and lack of participation and disaggregated data. The document recommends improvements like revising Article 23's language, increased collaboration between disability and children's rights groups, and promoting self-adv
This is the first part of a presentation for potrait photography in Greek. The presentation has been uploaded mainly as a reference for those who attended it.
Hiroshi Sugimoto had a vision of photographing an entire movie in a single frame. To realize this vision, he secretly brought a large-format camera into a cheap cinema and left the shutter open for the entire two hour movie. After developing the film, his vision "exploded behind his eyes" as he had captured the entire movie in a single frame with intermittent flashes of light and darkness. Sugimoto feels a sense of security and calmness when viewing the sea, as if returning to his ancestral home.
Nobuyoshi Araki is a Japanese photographer known for his controversial erotic photographs. His work often depicts intimate relationships and nude portraits, and has been criticized by some as objectifying or exploitative of women. However, others see his photographs as celebrating sexuality and the human body.
