Gather, review, analyze, and reflecton the informationto form sound impressions of needs,progress, and possibilities. Whethera few key snapshotsor a whole photo album, this planning component offersan important bench- mark for the planningprocess.

Via a collaborative team effort, form a concise vision that describes teaching and learning interactionsamong educational stakeholders. Elements of the vision mi2ht include: roles of students, teachers, administrators, and community members characteristics of teaching and learning activities structure of learning environments capacity of technical infrastructure capacity of people infrastructure Page 5 wiF-PrfALkmu\\ Major Components of the Planning Model 3) Discrepancy Analysis ( Identify thegaps between the current status as established by the "information g-athering and gleaning" activity and the vision produced by the "descriptive vision development" effort. Via honest, open interactions, define the "space" between "where the district is" and "where the districtwants to be." Clarify and order priorities though the lenses of resources and reality. Often the discrepancy analysis reactivates aspects of the "information gathering and gleaning"or "descriptive vision development." Elements of the discrepancy analysis might include: shifts in school system and structures issues surroundingresources updating and repurposing technical infrastructure people capacityknowledge, skills, practices curriculumdesign, development, implementation Page 6 1 0 Major Components of the Planning Model 4) Action Plan Development Identify actions that address thegaps noted through the discrepancy analysisprocess. This effort produces the "meat and potatoes" of the plan. Prioritize,prioritize, and again prioritize toensure specific attention to those activities that are most critical to overall impact. For purposes of doability and manageability, focus on a few key priorities and identifya few action steps for each. Build in accountability.

Received 25 February, 2014; Acceppted 9 June, 2014 Due to premature defoliation, early blight epidemics can cause major yield losses. Large-spore Alternaria species such as A. solani and A. tomatophila have long been recognized as important pathogens responsible for such blight disease in the famiily Solanaceeae and thus represent a serious risk for crop production. Small-spore Alternaria species have also been frequently isolated from plant samples with typical blight symptoms but their incidence as primary pathogens is often controversial. In order to study the diversity of small-spore Alternaria species, 32 isolates were selected from a larger collection of 130 isolates from infected leaves, fruits and sttems of tomato from various growing regions of North-West Algeria. Morphological characterization under standard conditions annd polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyses using specific primers to amplify a part of the ITS regions and the 5.8S gene were conducted to confirm their identification as members of the altternata section.

    Long-Term Growth Leonard Sherman

    Leadership Imperatives To Achieve The Holy Grail of Business: Long-Term Growth Leonard Sherman ChangeThis | 149.04 In all human endeavors we tend to revere stars that perform at a superior level over a long and illustrious career. Sports Hall of Famers Aaron, Montana, Jordan, Pelé, and Nicklaus and arts honorees Ozawa, Tharp, and Simon have earned legendary acclaim for performing immeasurably beyond the reach of most mere mortals. In business, as well, a few widely recognized companies have been able to deliver consistently superior growth over the long-term, including Amazon, who last year became the fastest company to reach $100 billion in sales, and J&J, 3M, and The Ball Corporation, each of whom has been out-innovating and outgrowing the overall market for more than a century. The Elusiveness of Long-Term Growth But these are exceptions to the rule that most companies are unable to sustain superior growth. For example, in perhaps the most definitive study of long-term business performance, the Corporate Executive Board (CEB), analyzed the long-term revenue growth of approximately five hundred Global 100 and other companies over the past half-century. The study found that only 13 percent of large enterprises could sustain a real annual revenue growth rate of as little as 2 percent over successive decades.1 ChangeThis | 149.04 Given increasing globalization and technological disruption, it is becoming harder than ever for companies to sustain growth. Researchers at the Deloitte Center for the Edge found that the “topple rate,” measuring the frequency with which companies lose their market leadership position from year to year, has grown by nearly 40 percent over the past forty years.

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.

    8 News and Help

    News and Help The plan is to collate any news in this document. I’ll then archive the content to another document so we can still access it but we only need to access the same document for all the new news. August 2020 Apple Updates, Improvements and Company News macOS Catalina 10.15.6 includes improvements to Apple News, a new option to optimise video streaming on HDR-compatible Mac notebooks for improved battery life, improvements to USB mouse and trackpad handling, and a fix for an issue that could cause the software update process to change the computer's name. 10.15.6 and the corresponding security updates for Mojave and High Sierra address a variety of serious vulnerabilities. Safari 13.1.2 is part of Catalina 10.15.6 and is also available for Mojave and High Sierra. It addresses 11 security issues, some of which can be remotely exploited to execute arbitrary code. iOS 13.6 brings the much-heralded digital car keys feature (initially for very recently made BMWs, and including key sharing via Messages and a 'power reserve' allowing keys to be used up to five hours after the phone's battery runs out). iOS 13.6 and iPadOS 13.6 include Apple News improvements (including audio news), a 'symptoms' category in the Health app, and various changes and fixes relating to software updates, iCloud Drive, Wi-Fi calling, and other features. The updates also address a total of 29 issues that could be variously exploited to execute arbitrary code, view sensitive information, and allow cross-site scripting, among others.

    SPECIAL REPORT DECEMBER 2011 DRUG DELIVERY REVIEW AND OUTLOOK INDUSTRY GROWTH TO CONTINUE THROUGH NEW TECHNOLOGIES The worldwide drug-delivery arena is growing each year as the increasing aging population is in need of improved methods of administration for products and therapies. Drug-delivery industry growth is being led by the United States as well as emerging markets. Oral forms remain the preferred method of drug-delivery administration. Gaining in popularity are parenteral, inhalation and implantable systems. Elements impacting the development of drug-delivery systems include reimbursement, environmental factors, and regulatory processes. Product developers are coming up with better ways to improve therapy performance and safety as patients become more involved in their treatments in an effort to cut down on costs. New electronic technologies for reusable systems and disposable devices are leading to improved sales of auto-injectors. Microneedle technology is on the rise so that medicine can be precisely delivered to areas in need of treatment.
