Millions of people who used to work in offices now work from home, and with this change in workplace dynamics comes a whole new set of concerns and logistical challenges. Instead of worrying about commutes, business travel, or booking conference rooms, workers and organizations now need to find new and effective ways to connect for conferences, all-staff meetings, and other events that used to take place face-to-face. In this course, Gini von Courter shows how to use Microsoft Teams live events like town halls and webinars to help meet these challenges by providing live video streaming for meetings with up to 10,000 participants. Gini shows how to keep things running smoothly before, during, and after a meeting. She covers key topics like choosing the appropriate meeting template, scheduling live events and assigning roles, creating a registration form for a webinar, inviting participants, starting the live stream, hosting post-event conversations, and managing event recordings and reports.

Derrida Writing Events


Free Download Derrida: Writing Events By Simon Wortham
2008 | 145 Pages | ISBN: 1847062474 | PDF | 1 MB
Derrida wrote a vast number of texts for particular events across the world, as well as a series of works that portray him as a voyager. As an Algerian émigré, a postcolonial outsider, and an idiomatic writer who felt tied to a language that was not his own, and as a figure obsessed by the singularity of the literary or philosophical event, Derrida emerges as one whose thought always arrives on occasion. But how are we to understand the event in Derrida? Is there a risk that such stories of Derrida’s work tend to misunderstand the essential unpredictability at work in the conditions of his thought? And how are we to reconcile the importance in Derrida of the unknowable event, the pull of the singular, with deconstruction’s critical and philosophical rigour and its claims to rethink more systematically the ethico-political field. This book argues that this negotiation in fact allows deconstruction to reformulate the very questions that we associate with ethical and political responsibility and shows this to be the central interest in Derrida’s work.

Weather and climate are not the same. Weather is what occurs outdoors on a daily basis and is unpredictable from one week to the next, whereas climate follows a stable pattern that is developed over centuries. The planet is divided into climate zones-tropical, temperate and polar-based on temperature differences with distance from the equator where the sun is most intense and temperature affects humidity, precipitation, cloudiness and wind. To understand what drives our climate, scientists study the atmosphere, the oceans, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere. 30-Second Climate is an immediately accessible guide to the 50 key factors affecting Earth’s climate, past, present and future, each explained in half a minute. From atmospheric circulation to zero carbon, this is the quickest way to know your planet.

Music in Boston Composers, Events, and Ideas, 1852-1918


Free Download Bill F. Faucett, "Music in Boston: Composers, Events, and Ideas, 1852-1918"
English | ISBN: 1498537383 | 2016 | 294 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
Music in Boston: Composers, Events, and Ideas, 1852-1918 is a history of the city’s classical-music culture in the period that begins a decade before the American Civil War and extends to the close of the Great War. The book provides insights into the intellectual foundation of Boston’s musical development as revealed in the writings of its significant critics and thinkers, including John Sullivan Dwight, John Knowles Paine, William Foster Apthorp, and others. It also examines the influence of outsiders-Patrick Gilmore, Theodore Thomas, Richard Wagner, New York’s Metropolitan Opera, and Richard Strauss-on Boston’s performance and composition scene while also considering events that affected music in Boston, such as the building of the Music Hall, the acquisition of its Great Organ, the National Peace Jubilee, Chicago’s Columbian Exposition, Boston’s first Wagner Festival, and the rise and fall of the Boston Opera Company. Music in Boston also accounts for the ascent of the Second New England School of composers-John Knowles Paine, Edward MacDowell, George Whitefield Chadwick, Amy Beach and others-and discusses their key compositions and legacy. Finally, the book explores Boston itself: its transformations via immigration, its ever-changing topography, and its economy.
