Petitioner 1 was at the time Commissioner of Ambala, and he alleges that he was told by the Chief Minister that it was proposed to cite the Deputy Commissioner and the Deputy Inspector-General of Police as prosecution witnesses in the said case and it would be in the fitness of things that Petitioner 1 should also figure as a prosecution witness to this suggestion Petitioner 1 gave a somewhat dubious reply to the effect that his appearance as a prosecution witness might or might not help the prosecution. ![]() That case was transferred by this Court to a Special Judge, at Delhi, who commenced the trial sometime in May/June 1959. It is alleged that the Chief Minister was annoyed with Petitioner 1, because the latter did not show his readiness to give evidence for the prosecution in a case known as the Karnal Murder Case (later referred to as the Grewal case) in which one D.S Grewal, then Superintendent of Police, Karnal, and some other police officials were, along with others, accused of some serious offences. Briefly stated the case of the petitioners is that Petitioner 1 had the misfortune to incur the wrath of the Chief Minister of the State. We shall refer to some of these officials later in this judgment in relation to the part which they have played or are playing in those criminal cases.Ģ. They have moved this Court under Article 32 of the Constitution for the enforcement of their rights under Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution, which rights they say have been violated by the respondents who are the State of Punjab, Sardar Pratap Singh Kairon, Chief Minister thereof, and certain officials, police, administrative and magisterial, who have been conducting, or are connected with, the investigation or inquiry into a number of criminal cases instituted against the petitioners. The three petitioners before us are (1) R.P Kapur, a member of the Indian Civil Service, who before his suspension was serving as a Commissioner in the State of Punjab, (2) Sheila Kapur, his wife, and (3) Kaushalya Devi, his mother-in-law. ![]()

Crush the industry game7/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Denny cites a study by the University of Colorado Denver that found people who played learning games had “11 percent higher factual knowledge, 14 percent higher skill-based knowledge and 9 percent higher retention” than people who used other types of learning. Talented’s platform leverages this knowledge by offering “communal and altruistic rewards and goals for learning cohorts to work toward.”Īccording to Growth Engineering, the neurotransmitters released when playing games help users make connections, motivate them and help them learn. With Talented, he hopes to “help visualize that progress for learners, and their employers, to keep everyone committed.” Additionally, behavioral economists have shown that people tend to invest time and energy in other people more than they do for themselves. Talented’s mobile experiential learning game platform is aimed at supporting and reinforcing training to “deliver real results.” The investment from the CAH Startup Lab means the company will be able to leverage CAH research to improve the product.įor example, behavioral economics tells us that “people tend to have a hard time tracking and working toward long-term goals, like achieving mastery of a complex skill,” Fleury says. ![]() Last month, it made an investment in Talented, a startup founded in 2016 by Danvers Fleury. Its Startup Lab invests in health and finance startups that use behavioral economics in their products. In fact, according to Juliette Denny, ideologist in chief at Growth Engineering, in 2016, “mobile gaming claimed the largest portion of total revenue for the first time, netting $38.6 billion or 39 percent.” Can training organizations tap into learners’ mobile gaming habits to improve learning?ĭuke University’s Center for Advanced Hindsight (CAH) is a behavioral economics lab that investigates decision-making in the areas of health, finance and morality.

Three additional core features are available that I'd like to mention briefly: An overview is available under the Lent button at the top. Lending information are listed on the third tab of each individual movie. Links to the movie trailer (on Youtube for instance) and the actual movie can be added to the listing as well. Media Information lists detailed information about the movie media, from the disc format to editions, languages, subtitles and bonus content. The movie tab lists standard information like the movie title, actors, country, rating and description. All editing options are divided on three tabs. Information can be exported as XML and CSV files or in XMBC compatible format.Įach movie can be edited individually once it has been selected in the main interface. You may still need to look the titles up on the Internet, but that's done easily by selecting a movie a movie and a click on the Internet button afterwards.Įxport options are provided which can be handy if you want to access the database on multiple systems. These movies are then automatically added to the database. A disk scan option is available as well which you can use to scan a folder on the hard drive for movies. Support are imports from files like xml, csv or plain text files as well imports from Ant Movie Catalog. You can add multiple movies at once under Import. ![]() It is furthermore possible to edit fields right away in case you want to add information to the movie. If you do not want to add a poster or description you can uncheck the checkbox to do so. One interesting aspect here is that you can select the information that you want to add to the movie in the database. It often lists ten, twenty or even more movie posters that you can select one from. Filmotech downloads a movie poster automatically which can be added to the movie database as well. You can use these information to compare your movie with the selected on. Selecting a movie from the list displays all movie information in a table like form. The program displays matches in the very same window. You can speed things up however by searching for a movie title or part of a title on the Internet. It is still possible to add a movie manually to the database. This can be a very uncomfortable process if you need to hack in all the movie data manually, or very comfortable if the software does that for you.įilmotech offers several options in this regard.

While occasionally appearing in theater productions with her brother, Mariscal intended to study mathematics. Her father owned a furniture store and a theater, which offered Mariscal her early exposure to acting. Mariscal was born in Madrid in 1923 to a middle-class family. Her brother Luis Arroyo (1915–1956) was also an actor and film director. She is iconic to 1940s and 50s Spanish cinema.

Companies continue to face challenges in assessing the impacts and providing meaningful and relevant information to their stakeholders under both IFRS Accounting Standards and US GAAP. A write-down is normally done when the market value of an asset declines below its current carrying amount. Disrupted supply chains, inflation, natural disasters, geopolitical events and the COVID-19 pandemic continue to create issues and risks. In addition, the economic environment continues to change, with companies facing increased uncertainty. Both are also focused on maintaining stability in financial reporting at a time when companies have been implementing significant new standards and amendments to existing ones. The US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is consulting on issues including digital assets, software costs and environmental credit programmes. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has added intangible assets and climate-related matters to its agenda. Standard setters are responding to these changes. And issues such as the transition to a lower-carbon economy are on the agenda at every board meeting. Further, new technologies such as blockchain and cryptoassets are disrupting the world of commerce. Companies that previously sold products may now sell services, or subscriptions to those services, and retailing has moved online to virtual main streets rather than physical shops. Business in the 21st century is facing accelerating change. ![]() Dust particles7/25/2023 ![]() This simulation shows how weather conditions can lead to a pollution event affecting air quality. This warm air prevents pollutants from dispersing into the atmosphere, causing a build-up that results in a low-lying horizonal haze.Ī pollution event happens when the concentration of pollutants in the air exceeds acceptable standards. When the Earth’s surface cools quickly, it causes the air at ground level to be colder than the air higher in the atmosphere. These particles are caused by both combustion processes and non-combustion processes.ĭust is a common air pollutant that can impact air quality.īecause dust particles are larger, they pose more of a nuisance rather than the health concern associated with fine particles.ĭry conditions increase the likelihood of airborne dust and dust storms with strong winds carrying soil across long distances.īushfires can also contribute to increased airborne particle levels with smoke travelling hundreds of kilometres and covering large areas.Ĭolder weather can also influence air quality. PM 10 particles are coarse particles measuring less than 10 micrometres in diameter. These particles are mainly caused by combustion processes.įine particles pose a greater health risk because they can reach deeper into the respiratory system and lungs. PM 2.5 are fine particles measuring less than 2.5 micrometres in diameter-that’s 30 times smaller than the width of a human hair. National air quality standards set strict guidelines about acceptable levels of air pollutants.Ī key indicator for air quality is particulate matter, which is measured in two different sizes. Poor air quality can have potentially harmful effects on human health, especially the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. ![]() The network includes more than 40 monitoring stations across the state operated by the Queensland Government and industry partners.Īir quality is measured 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and data is published online and updated hourly on the Queensland Government’s live air data website Ĭlean air plays an important role in protecting our health, way of life and natural environment.Īir quality can be affected by a range of pollutants from different sources, as well as weather conditions. ![]() Queensland’s air quality monitoring network measures the quality of the air in the environment. ![]() |
