4.9 When there's too much to do This can be a real problem in large conferences. If, for whatever reason, you join a conference later than the other participants, or are unable to be involved for a while, the prospect of joining in can be a bit daunting. There will be lots of messages you haven't read and you may feel that everyone else knows each other. The main thing to remember is that everyone will be pleased to ‘see’ you when you do join in, and will be helpful and supportive. Here are some strategies you can

Music and its media
This free course, Music and its media, examines some of the main ways in which music is transmitted. It considers how the means of communicating a particular piece can change over time; and how the appearance and contents of a source can reflect the circumstances in which it is produced. The course focuses on three examples of musical media that allow us to study music of the past: manuscripts of sixteenth-century Belgium, prints of eighteenth-century London, and recordings of twentieth-century
6.1 Buying a book online I've chosen this because books (together with music CDs and DVDs) are often the first things that people buy online. In this case I'm after a book by an American academic named Lawrence Lessig. I'm not sure of the exact title, but I know it's got 'culture' in it.
Step 1 Find a site that sells what you want
In this case, it's easy. I'm looking for a book, and Amazon is the best-known online book retailer. So I click on http://www.amazon.co.uk. Why not http://www.amazon.com
7.4.1 Spin-on For a thick, quick, blanket coating of material, it is sometimes possible just to pour it over the surface! The technique is familiar from photolithography, where photoresist-polymer precursors are dissolved in a solvent. The wafer is spun at high speed (up to several thousand rpm) and a droplet is dripped onto its centre. This is thrown outwards, coating the surface instantly. The wafer is then baked to drive off the solvents and leave a solid film, perhaps 1 mm thick. This spin-on technique
That Incredible Little Arctic Tern
We went to Antarctica to see the penguins, and we certainly did. But we saw so much more wildlife: orcas and elephant seals and leopard seals and many different seabirds. My favorite is the arctic tern, a little bird that migrates farther every year than any other in the world... from the Antarctic to the Arctic, and back - 20,000 miles every year. (03:00)

2.6.1 (a) Using Lego as a model In this kind of building set, there are a limited number of types of block and each block has a particular shape. Just as importantly, each one has a particular way in which it can link to other blocks because of the way the studs are arranged. The blocks can help you see how the atoms link in a molecule of water. Look at Figure 7 where the red brick represents an oxygen atom and the white bricks represent hydrogen atoms. There are only two locations where the hydrogen atoms can join th

5.3 Setting up an ISMS Clause 4.1 of Part 1 of the Standard describes the processes and personnel required to support an ISMS under development or in operation. Chapter 4 of IT Governance: A Manager's Guide to Data Security & BS 7799/ISO 177799 (the Set Book) provides a detailed description of each of the components of such support systems, as well as exploring their interrelationships. 2.2.2 Hollow tubing surfaces In their doughnut-shaped representation, toruses can be thought of as being hollow tubes. Many other surfaces in space can also be drawn as if they were made of hollow tubing. Figure 15 shows two such examples. Chaos and the Art of Visualising Complexity 2.8 Polar form You have seen that the complex number x + iy corresponds to the point (x, y) in the complex plane. This correspondence enables us to give an alternative description of complex numbers, using so-called polar form. This form is particularly useful when we discuss properties related to multiplication and division of complex numbers.
Mr. Snowman Song 15.617 The Law of Corporate Finance and Financial Markets (MIT) 8.325 Relativistic Quantum Field Theory III (MIT) Backyard organic garden.
Author(s):
Professor Michael Field, from Imperial College London, address the question of what chaos is (and is not) and how one can visualise and describe the general mathematics of chaos and complex dynamics. It will also include some striking images of chaos and numerical demonstrations.

This song begins with a blank felt snowman. Each verse of the song adds an additional body part to the snowman - eyes, nose, mouth, buttons, hat, etc.Â
Much of 15.617 focuses on mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and the law-sensitive aspects of financial services and financial markets. The course is designed to be an introduction to business law that covers the fundamentals, including contracts, liability, regulation, employment, and corporations. This class also provides an in-depth treatment of the law of finance.
This course is the third and last term of the quantum field theory sequence. Its aim is the proper theoretical discussion of the physics of the standard model. Topics include: quantum chromodynamics; the Higgs phenomenon and a description of the standard model; deep-inelastic scattering and structure functions; basics of lattice gauge theory; operator products and effective theories; detailed structure of the standard model; spontaneously broken gauge theory and its quantization; instantons and
