Measuring the Data Universe

Data Integration Using Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange

By: Reinhold Stahl,Patricia Staab

This richly illustrated book provides an easy-to-read introduction to the challenges of organizing and integrating modern data worlds, explaining the contribution of public statistics and the ISO standard SDMX (Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange). As such, it is a must for data experts as well those aspiring to become one. Today, exponentially growing data worlds are increasingly determining our professional and private lives. The rapid increase in the amount of globally available data, fueled by search engines and social networks but also by new technical possibilities such as Big Data, offers great opportunities. But whatever the undertaking – driving the block chain revolution or making smart phones even smarter – success will be determined by how well it is possible to integrate, i.e. to collect, link and evaluate, the required data. One crucial factor in this is the introduction of a cross-domain order system in combination with a standardization of the data structure. Using everyday examples, the authors show how the concepts of statistics provide the basis for the universal and standardized presentation of any kind of information. They also introduce the international statistics standard SDMX, describing the profound changes it has made possible and the related order system for the international statistics community.

Wherever Snow Falls

By: Patricia East

Convinced by her mother that she is a child of Satan, Laura Scarapelli, a beautiful, intelligent Italian begins to write at an early age to escape poverty, horrendous abuse, fear of God and most of her world. When Laura refuses to attend her high school graduation, despite the fact that she is class valedictorian, a teacher, Sue Finley, steps up to help. Sue, a widow with no children, immediately finds her maternal wings and helps Laura into college and begin to win in her struggle to know God. Because she feels loved, Laura also begins to feel she belongs to the world around her. Laura's world becomes big with pretty clothes, piano lessons, car trips, people and kindness. A Whitfield favorite son, Hugh Brehm, falls in love with Laura but she is too busy learning to live and still struggling with trust issues. Hugh studies law and Laura goes to Yale where Sue hopes Laura will have exposure for her writing. Sue dies about the same time an interested professor sends Laura's book to a New York publisher. Laura realizes she does love Hugh but when she turns to him for comfort, she learns he is engaged to someone else. Fear returns and she once again hears her mother's words...God cannot love you. Walk with Laura in her mission barrel "wooly worm" black coat. Hear her utter her first prayer, share intimacy with a purple-winged wasp, thrill with Laura as she feels love for the first time -- love for a stray dog she names Pilot. See the world through Laura's eyes as she is named May Day Queen, as she searches for an elusive movie idol, experiences her first kiss, faces a life threatening experience with a long-lost brother and embraces the reality of her own loveliness in a vintage gown as she speaks at the Academy awards.

North Amherst and Cushman

North Amherst and Cushman

By: Patricia G. Holland,William N. Robinson

North Amherst and Cushman, villages within the town of Amherst, were settled in the early 1700s. Farms dominated the area's rolling hills, and mills lined the fast-flowing Mill River. In the 19th century, large factories grew in Cushman, which was then called North Amherst City. The train in Cushman and later the trolley in North Amherst made travel easy for workers, shoppers, and visitors. After the arrival of low-cost automobiles, the trolley tracks were torn up in 1925, and the little village shops acquired gas pumps. By the end of the 1930s, all the factories had closed and their buildings were demolished. Stephen Puffer's ice works shut down in the early 1940s, but Puffer's Pond is now a beautiful fishing and swimming spot, and the dam carries a lovely waterfall. With the University of Massachusetts at Amherst's expansion in the 1960s, much of the area's farmland was developed. Today, residents seek a balance between preservation and growth.

God’s Call Is Everywhere

A Global Analysis of Contemporary Vocations for Women

By: Patricia Wittberg, SC,Mary L. Gautier,Gemma Simmonds, CJ,Nathalie Becquart, XMCJ

Religious life is vitally necessary to the Catholic church today. But it will exist in new and varied forms which speak to the spiritual hungers of different societies, ethnic cultures, and generations. God’s Call Is Everywhere is the first comparative analysis of research in six countries investigating women who have entered vowed religious life in Catholicism in the twenty-first century. The data include survey responses from institute leaders, formation directors, and the women themselves, conducted in the United States, Canada, Australia, and France, along with focus groups and interviews in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and France. Through a careful summary of these studies and comparing differences, readers of this book will have a better understanding of the hopes and concerns of those discerning a vocation to religious life and learn how to move forward in the future. God’s Call Is Everywhere includes six major points of comparison: * Demographic characteristics of the women entering religious life and their personal and familial backgrounds * What attracted them to religious life and to their specific religious institute * What they find most satisfying and most challenging about religious life * Their hopes and concerns for the future * Experiences and programs that were helpful in their vocational discernment * Aspects of the larger society, of the Church, and of the religious institutes which make vocational discernment difficult for women today The analysis is followed by six reflective essays, two of which discuss the implications of the findings for future vocational discernment programs and four of which compare the findings to religious life in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

A Walk with Sarah

By: Patricia Rogers Bisgrove

Sarah Clarke ran out of school that afternoon, not knowing her life would be forever changed. Waiting for her mother, a sudden rainstorm began. Sarah ran under a store awning and witnessed a Tai Chi class in progress. She would later meet Sifu, the instructor, who would teach Sarah the concept of balancing her mind with her body. A retired schoolteacher would explain that she was dyslexic. Then there was Georgia, who made it a habit of ridiculing Sarah every chance she could. Sarah's triumph was obtained through hard work and learning how to achieve her goals.
