The survey found that the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System had the majority of responses at 69.6%. Younger members are more interested in online communications like the website than printed newsletters. Most members use social media networks like Facebook and are interested in receiving retirement information through blogs and social media. The recommendations are to establish short and long term goals to effectively use social media for communicating retirement information and building relationships with members.
The document discusses native plants and conservation efforts in New England. It includes information about the Garden in the Woods in Framingham, Massachusetts, which is a 45 acre nature preserve and native plant garden. It also mentions the Native Plant Center in Whately, Massachusetts and lists the number of rare plant populations surveyed by conservation volunteers in various counties in 2009. The mission and vision statements of the New England Wild Flower Society focus on conserving native plants and ensuring healthy ecosystems.
The document provides a specification for the WSET Level 1 Award in Wines, including learning outcomes, assessment criteria, and sample questions and tasks. The specification outlines 5 learning outcomes covering wine product knowledge, storage, service, food and wine matching, and safe consumption. It details the types of wines, factors that determine styles, principal grape varieties, and service procedures students are expected to understand for the examination.
Use of Jatropha Curcas L. to Combat Desertification and Reduce Poverty QZ1
油
This document discusses using the physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) plant to combat desertification and reduce poverty in Cape Verde. It provides background on the physic nut, noting that it is drought resistant and thrives in poor soils, requiring minimal rainfall. In Cape Verde, physic nut was historically an important export crop and is still used locally for fuel, living fences, medicine, and soap production. The document assesses the possibilities and limitations of different uses of physic nut in Cape Verde, finding it can help stabilize soils and protect against erosion, but has disadvantages as a fuel due to technical challenges and high costs compared to diesel. Overall, the plant meets some development needs in Cape Verde's arid
H2O is an open source math and machine learning engine for big data. It allows users to build machine learning models on large datasets using the same interfaces they are already familiar with in R. This document provides an introduction to H2O and demonstrates how to install it, connect R to an H2O cluster, import data from R into H2O, and build predictive models like generalized linear models (GLMs) for problems like predicting tumor presence using the prostate cancer data set. It also shows how to access an H2O cluster remotely from R to perform distributed computations on big data.
The document is a Jeopardy-style game about Saint George's Day traditions in Catalonia. Some of the questions and answers covered in the game include:
1) Saint George's bread is a typical food of the day that resembles the Catalan flag in appearance.
2) Saint George's Day is celebrated on April 23rd. On this day, men give women roses and women give men books, which commemorates Cervantes' death.
3) Important Catalan cultural aspects discussed include the official languages (Catalan and Spanish), common greetings like "Hola" and "Grcies", and that Saint George is the patron saint of Catalonia.
The document provides a summary of a virtual tour presentation given by Guru C.V. Gopinath about the trek to Manasarovara and Kailasa mountain range. It describes how the presentation included commentary, audio, and stunning visuals that transported listeners on a hair-raising experience of the trek. The visuals gave viewers a feeling of the path and the magnificence of the mountains from different angles. The presentation concluded with the singing of Rudra and helped listeners feel the aura and existence of God.

This document provides a sampling of resources on religion and ecology, including web sites, journals, handbooks, and videos. It lists over 20 web sites from organizations such as the Episcopal Church, Evangelical Environmental Network, and National Religious Partnership for the Environment that provide educational and action materials. It also lists journals and handbooks on topics like caring for creation and the Earth Charter. Finally, it provides examples of educational video programs available on issues connecting God, the environment, and global warming.
How to win data science competitions with Deep LearningSri Ambati
油
This document summarizes a presentation about how to win data science competitions using deep learning with H2O. It discusses H2O's architecture and capabilities for deep learning. It then demonstrates live modeling on Kaggle competitions, providing step-by-step explanations of building and evaluating deep learning models on three different datasets - an African soil properties prediction challenge, a display advertising challenge, and a Higgs boson machine learning challenge. It concludes with tips and tricks for deep learning with H2O and an invitation to the H2O World conference.
This catalogue describes 14 wines from producers in Croatia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Serbia and Bosnia & Herzegovina. The wines include both reds and whites with alcohol content ranging from 10.8% to 13%. The descriptions provide information on grape varieties, color, aroma, flavor profiles and recommended food pairings for each wine.
