# Mimi Cherono Ng'ok

Mimi Cherono Ng'ok (born 1983) is a Kenyan photographer, living in Nairobi. Her "photographs are a visual diary of the experiences and emotions emerging from her itinerant life". Ng'ok's work has been shown at the Hayward Gallery, Berlin Biennale, Carnegie International and African Photography Encounters, and is held in the Walther Collection.

## Early life and education

Ng'ok grew up in the rural outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya. In 2006 she graduated with a BFA from the Michaelis School of Fine Art at the University of Cape Town in South Africa.

## Photography

Her 2008 series I am Home, on African immigrants living in South Africa, deals with "issues of home, displacement, loss, and identity". A project begun in 2013, made in countries where she has lived and travelled, was described by Alexandra Genova in Time as "a series of vignettes on memory, loss and lust revealed through Ng'ok's experiences." Given that Ng'ok believes home is not a place, but a state of mind, Genova wrote that the work "explores this temporality through the intersection of people and place". Diane Smyth in the British Journal of Photography described Ng'ok's work in an exhibition called Africa State of Mind as giving "a personal interpretation of place, in contrast to the apparently objective lens of documentary photography".
Everyone is Lonely in Kigali was made in Dakar, Accra, Berlin, Abidjan, Kampala, Kigali, Nairobi and Johannesburg and includes her frequently used subject matter: trees, the tropics, horses and an unidentified male figure. The series Do You Miss Me? Sometimes, Not Always, was made over six months after October 2014, in the cities of Kigali, Abidjan, Kampala, and Nairobi in memory of her friend Thabiso Sekgala, who died.

# N-Methylhydroxylamine

N-Methylhydroxylamine or methylhydroxylamine is a hydroxylamine derivative with a methyl group replacing one of the hydrogens of the amino group. It is an isomer of methoxyamine and aminomethanol.

The Art of Loss is the sixth studio album of American progressive metal band Redemption. It is the band's last studio album to feature vocalist Ray Alder. It is also their first album without guitarist and founding member Bernie Versailles, who has been on indefinite medical leave of absence from the band since suffering an aneurysm in October 2014. To replace Versailles in the recordings, the guitarist and DGM member Simone Mularoni and former Megadeth guitar players Chris Poland, Chris Broderick and Marty Friedman were invited. Vocalist John Bush of Armored Saint appears as a guest singer on "Love, Reign o'er Me", a cover of a song originally recorded by The Who.
The album was released on February 26, 2016 via Metal Blade Records and can be streamed in its entirety in the SoundCloud and Bandcamp pages of the band. A video was made for the title track, which features a guest appearance by guitarist Chris Poland. The video was directed by Brian Cox of Flarelight Films.

## Critical reception

Sputnik Music writer Trey Spencer came away impressed stating, "The Art of Loss maintains the heavy riffs and driving rhythms of This Mortal Coil, but returns the focus to the classy progressive metal that defined the band’s earlier albums. If The Art of Loss isn’t considered Redemption’s best album, it’s damn near close."

# TheFind.com

TheFind.com was a Mountain View-based online discovery shopping search engine targeting lifestyle products such as apparel, accessories, home and garden, fitness, kids and family, and health and beauty. On March 13, 2015, Facebook, Inc. announced that they had acquired TheFind.com for an undisclosed sum, and the site was being shut down.

## History

TheFind Inc, was founded in 2006 as FatLens Inc., initially specializing in event tickets search but later expanding to product search. On October 31, 2006, the site was re-launched as TheFind.com with an emphasis on discovery shopping search for lifestyle products. TheFind.com received initial funding from Redpoint Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners and Cambrian Ventures. In 2007, they received an additional $15 million in funding led by Bain Capital Ventures.
On March 13, 2015, Facebook, Inc. announced that they had purchased TheFind.com for an undisclosed sum. It was also announced that TheFind.com would be shut down immediately and that some of the staff would make the transition to join the Facebook team. Its TheFind.com page was replaced with a redirect to Facebook's home page.

## Business model

TheFind.com positioned itself as a discovery shopping search engine, in contrast to a comparison shopping engine model more commonly used for computers and electronics. According to the company's website, the search database included over 500 million products from over 500,000 stores and online merchants. Products were added to the search via crawling as well as merchant feeds. The search results were ranked using an algorithm based on relevancy and popularity, rather than a pay-for-placement ranking. Clicking on a product from a search results page took the user to the merchant's site where the product could be purchased directly from the merchant.

## Growth

On March 28, 2007, TheFind.com announced that it had experienced a 540% increase in unique visits since its launch on October 31, 2006, and a change from 141,625 visits in November 2006 to a run rate of over 900,000 visits in March 2007. They also reported a monthly traffic growth rate of over 35% for Q1 2007. In November 2008, the Quantcast.com media measurement service showed TheFind.com at 7 million visitors per month. In May 2010, Comscore Media Metrix showed TheFind to be the 2nd largest shopping search engine with 20+ million visitors per month as.
On August 29, 2007, TheFind.com acquired the women's fashion shopping site Glimpse.com.

## Charitable campaigns

TheFind.com periodically ran "Color for a Cause" campaigns to raise money for charities. During each campaign, TheFind.com donated $1 to the selected charity each time users ran a search that contained a designated color. In the first campaign launched in January 2007, TheFind.com donated $1 per user per day for searches that contained the color red, raising a total of $10,000 for the humanitarian aid charity Doctors Without Borders. In the campaign launched in April 2007, searches that contained the color pink netted $1 per user per day for the breast cancer research organization Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

# NIIRS

The National Imagery Interpretability Rating Scale (NIIRS) is an American subjective scale used for rating the quality of imagery acquired from various types of imaging systems. The NIIRS defines different levels of image quality/interpretability based on the types of tasks an analyst can perform with images of a given NIIRS rating. The idea is that imagery analysts should be able to perform more demanding interpretation tasks as the quality of the imagery increases. It is published as part of the Federation of American Scientists Intelligence Resource Program.
The NIIRS consists of 10 levels, from 0 (worst quality) to 9 (best quality).
Because different types of imagery support different types of interpretation tasks, individual NIIRS has been developed for four major imaging types: Visible, Radar, Infrared, and Multispectral.

## NIIRS Scale

| National Imagery Interpretability Rating Scale (NIIRS) | Ground Resolved Distance (GRD) |
| 0 | Image can not be interpreted because of obscuration, degradation, or very poor resolution |
| 1 | > 9.0 meters |
| 2 | 4.5 - 9.0 meters |
| 3 | 2.5 - 4.5 meters |
| 4 | 1.2 - 2.5 meters |
| 5 | 0.75 - 1.2 meters |
| 6 | 0.40 - 0.75 meters |
| 7 | 0.20 - 0.40 meters |
| 8 | 0.10 - 0.20 meters |
| 9 | < 0.10 meters |
