Vegetarian Barbecue Recipes - Vegan Barbeque Recipe - BBQ Cookout Grill - Vegetarian Gr... - 2 views

  • This vegetarian barbecue recipe can be used to make either Mexican grilled stuffed chile rellenos using poblano peppers, or, if you don't have poblanos, you can stuff green bell peppers instead for a dish similar to traditional chile rellenos.
  • This is a grilled vegetarian panini sandwich recipe made from mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and basil. You can think of this vegetarian panini like a bruschetta sandwich, as the ingredients and flavors are similar.

Likelihood function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 1 views

  • In statistics , a likelihood function (often simply the likelihood ) is a function of the parameters of a statistical model , defined as follows: the likelihood of a set of parameter values given some observed outcomes is equal to the probability of those observed outcomes given those parameter values. Likelihood functions play a key role in statistical inference , especially methods of estimating a parameter from a set of statistics . In non-technical parlance, "likelihood" is usually a synonym for " probability " but in statistical usage, a clear technical distinction is made. One may ask "If I were to flip a fair coin 100 times, what is the probability of it landing heads-up every time?" or "Given that I have flipped a coin 100 times and it has landed heads-up 100 times, what is the likelihood that the coin is fair?" but it would be improper to switch "likelihood" and "probability" in the two sentences. If a probability distribution depends on a parameter, one may on one hand consider—for a given value of the parameter—the probability (density) of the different outcomes, and on the other hand consider—for a given outcome—the probability (density) this outcome has occurred for different values of the parameter. The first approach interprets the probability distribution as a function of the outcome, given a fixed parameter value, while the second interprets it as a function of the parameter, given a fixed outcome. In the latter case the function is called the "likelihood function" of the parameter, and indicates how likely a parameter value is in light of the observed outcome.

PILOTed: Thoughts on the Blackboard acquisition of Wimba and Elluminate - 3 views

  • The role of Learning Management Systems has changed dramatically over the last ten years. The first higher education learning management systems were places for professors to place materials and students to submit assignments. These were different from Content Management Systems, which allowed learners to follow a learning path through a course, grading systems, which kept track of grades, enrollment systems, which allowed students to enroll in classes, student accounting systems, which tracked payments and expenses, data warehouses, which allow analysts to mine the various systems for actionable trends, and all the other myriad systems that schools use to run their academics and operations.
  • Today, in both K12 and postsecondary, there is a growing need to integrate these systems. In higher education, schools have tried to patch together brittle middleware applications to bridge the various systems. This has not been an issue yet for K12, because of low penetration of the LMS into public schools. But federal calls for increased use of data, and the need to handle more students and show better results, with decreased resources will likely hasten the introduction of the LMS in elementary and secondary schools.

Microsoft bought Forefront, and then integrated the three applications into one bundle, MS Office, which has controlled the desktop word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation market for over 15 years.
