Dear Mr. Minister Spaenle, dear Mr.Freller,
dear Mrs. Hammerman, dear Mr. Dietz de Loos,
dear Mr. Mannheimer, dear survivors,
dear Lady Knobloch, dear Gerda Hasselfeldt,
dear representatives of the Bavarian Landtag,
ladies and gentlemen,
Thank you very much for your invitation to visit the Dachau Concentration Camp.We all associate with these buildings a terrible precedent and inhuman chapter of German history. But you, dear Mr. Mannheimer, and the other survivors among us that have had to experience the horror yourself. For you deprivation and persecution, hunger and disease, violence and terror, even arbitrary killing was once your everyday bitter life. For me it is a very moving moment to meet with you and other witnesses and families of victims in this place. I would like to thank all of you that you have come. I know that it takes a lot of strenght every time, go back to where you or your loved ones have suffered so much. Such a deep pain resonates for a lifetime . At the same time it remains connected with its stone ruins. It ties in with the concept of memorials like this. They reach not only the mind but also the emotions of the visitors. So what once happened in these places, again draws impressively near. The origins of the Dachau concentration camp are 80 years back. At the beginning of 1933, the Nazis took power in Germany. They immediately began to persecute political opponents, Jews, Gypsies, the disabled and homosexuals. The first concentration camps emerged. Among them was the Dachau concentration camp. The name Dachau gained notoriety. For Dachau served as a model for the concentration camp system, that the Nazi machinery of persecution in Germany has supported up to the cruel rupture of civilization,the Shoah. As the only concentration camp, continued to exist throughout the period of National Socialism. In total, more than 200,000 prisoners were in Dachau or in its satellite camps. Approximately 41,500 were killed here. On 29 April 1945, American troops liberated the survivors. Every prisoner - whether from Dachau or any other concentration camps - had of course a very personal life story that was broken cruel or even erased. The memory of these stories filled me with deep sorrow and shame.
At the same time places like the Dachau concentration camp memorial are a empathic reminder of: How did it come so far in Germany that people because of their ethnicity, religion, political beliefs or sexual orientation were deprived of their human dignity and the right to live, and the vast majority of Germans did not take action against it, or at least allowed it to happen? Places like this help remind everyone that such a thing never happens again, that never again indifferent shrug or even applause clapping is allowed if people are discriminated against, harassed, persecuted and at the end, must unprotected fear for life and limb.
This is the permanent responsibility for us Germans that arises from what has happened, This is also one reason why we promote facilities that commemorate the victims and remember the crimes of Germany in the time of National Socialism. We strongly oppose any form of anti-Semitism, racism and right-wing extremism and support and encourage civil courage and volunteerism.. We know from what happened: The memory must be passed on from generation to generation. Young people need to know what suffering is caused by Germany. They must learn how to confront extremist tendencies. Also they who are young today must pass it on later to their children and grandchildren.
Dear Mr. Mannheimer, as a survivor of the Holocaust, you bear witness to the horrors of Nazism. Your concern has always been - and I quote: "from the mists of history to build bridges of reconciliation and rapprochement, to strengthen democracy and to combat anti-Semitism and racism."
Many witnesses and survivors have done likewise, or do it well stricken in years until today. I feel a sincere respect that you do this for us so we would not experience these horrors. I am very grateful to you. Therefore, it is my great honor that you visit together with me the Dachau Concentration Camp. I thank you for that, because I know that it is anything but self-evident. It is a bridge of the story in the present, we want to continue to build in the future.
Thank you for allowing me to be here today.

Sharing a portion of a base
- Updated on 05 Jul 2022
- 2 Minutes to read
Sometimes, you want to share only part of a base while keeping other parts hidden. In these cases, it doesn't make sense to add the person with whom you're sharing with as a collaborator, because a collaborator can always see every part of the bases they are collaborating on.
Sharing part of a base for someone to read
When sharing part of a base for someone to read, you can create a read-only view share link. Anyone with the view share link can see the contents visible in the specified view, and importantly, they will not see any records (rows) or fields (columns) that are hidden in this view.
Please be aware that the viewer of a table view share link will always see the most up-to-date version of the view. This means that if (for example) you change cell values, add records or fields, or toggle which fields and records are visible in a view, those changes will be reflected in the view share link.
If you would like to share more than one table from a base without showing the entire base, then you will need to create separate share links to each table. You can share an entire base (with nothing hidden) by creating a base share link.
An alternative to creating share links is emailing records.
Creating a synced table
Airtable Sync allows you to share a view from a source table with a targeted destination table in another base. The records synced with this targeted table cannot be updated, but they can be enriched by adding new fields. A basic overview can be found at the link above.
Sharing part of a base for someone to edit
Someone can directly edit records in a base only by being a collaborator on a base, and by therefore having access to the entire base. Therefore, if you would like someone to make changes to the base without having access to the entire base, you should not make that person a collaborator on that base. Instead, you can use one of the following techniques:
Creating a share link and a form
One common workaround is to create a view share link (explained above) and a form. With the share link, you can show someone just the specific records/fields from a table that you want them to see. Other people can then add records to the base through the form.
Please note that forms can only be used for adding new records, and not for editing existing ones.
As an alternative to creating a share link, you can also email records directly.
Creating a separate base
If you need someone to have the ability to fully edit and add records to just part of a base, you can add them as a collaborator to a separate base, into which you have copied and pasted just the records/fields you would like them to see.

Approaches to Human Resource Audit
Human Resource Audit
Human resource audit has evolved over time and expanded as it is not only used in decision making, but also as an instrument of control in personnel-related matters. Several approaches have been brought forward to evaluate the effectiveness of the hr function. Previous scholars had their own perspective of human resources audit. Their argument was hr audit has an internal an external background.
From the internal aspect, departments are evaluated from their capability to offer services to the organization at an optimized cost. According to this traditional approach, quality quantity and reliability are used to examine the efficiency of the audit.
On the other hand, the external approach focuses on the impact of the organization's results, thus the auditors consider data obtained from outside as important in solving the errors encountered.
Five Approaches for HR Audit
Apart from traditional approaches there exist the modern/ common approaches. The modern approaches for HR Audit are;
- Statistical approach.
- Compliance approach.
- Comparative approach.
- Outside authority approach.
- Management by objectives (MBO) approach.
1. Statistical approach
Statistical Approach is also known as a quantitative and qualitative approach. This method uses statistical tools and information recorded in the organization's system. The recorded information may include employee turnover and absenteeism. The checking and auditing of employees involve complex mathematical formulas which form a standard on which all activities and programs are examined.
With the mathematical data as a base, mistakes can be discovered and corrected from an early point. Other times statistical approach is supplemented with records from different sources such as films and surveys.
2. Compliance approach
It is an approach based on legal and organization's policies. Auditors take a thorough look at past actions to examine whether the organization's activities are in line with legal requirements together with the set standards, policies and procedures. Although many don't view it as an efficient approach because it uses past information which may be biased due to various reasons.
3. Comparative approach
In this approach, a benchmarking strategy is used. Auditors identify a competitor organization which is used as a model in comparison. The audit reports are compared analytically to find areas to make corrections.
The benchmarking process is quite tedious as it involves;
- Forming a team to take care of the process.
- Identifying the most suitable organization to partner for the benchmarking.
- Collection of data from both organization/companies.
- Proper analyzing and interpretation of the data.
- Creating an action plan and working on loopholes identified.
4. Outside authority approach
Standards set by outside consultants are used by the audit team to benchmark for comparison with their own results. Data from published research finding and research films/ documentaries are also a source for benchmarking, to explore for causes of the problem.
5. Management by objectives (MBO) approach
This is a goal and objective-based approach. Specific targets are laid down against which the organization's performance is measured so as to arrive at a final decision. The Audit team conducts a survey of the actual performance then compares that performance with the desired objectives of the organization.
It is noted that irrespective of the approach, it can be grouped as a comprehensive plan or special focused plan, with staff, time and costs as factors.

I struggled to wake up and keep warm. The searing desert temperatures had traded places with a blast from the South Pole. A layer of ice clung to the windscreen as we climbed into the vehicle at Klein Aus Vista, but it couldn't dampen my spirits. I was going to visit the wild horses of the Namib Desert with Dr Telané Greyling, who has studied this particular population for over twenty years.
Having lived in the Namib for more than a century, the resilience and ability to adapt that ensured the survival of Equidae over aeons means these horses have made a home for themselves in one of the most unlikely places on earth.
With the exception of one population, all wild horses originate from domestic stock
Telané humbly avoids the limelight, but she is undoubtedly the most knowledgeable person on Namib horses and is a central figure of the Namibia Wild Horses Foundation. Recording births and deaths, she is able to identify every horse and knows the population intimately. When we arrived at the Garub waterhole in the pale morning light, a family group of horses was making its way to the waterhole, the golden sun anointing their manes and the dust exploding under their hooves. It is no wonder that wild horses all over the world elicit responses of awe – the horses exude a spirit of freedom only discernible in those creatures living on the wild expanses of the Earth.
They quickened their pace and began to gallop as they neared the water where they soon sated their thirst. In the distance, the next group began to appear like mirages. As the first groups moved off and disappeared into the hills, others arrived, and so it went for a while. I forgot about the icy wind while I absorbed this view of unfettered freedom. I soaked it up knowing that the flip face of reality is always hovering somewhere close by.
Eventually, the sun rose and the horses left the waterhole to be replaced with ostriches and gemsbok. Telané had been jotting down the morning's activities. "There's been a lot going on in the groups today," she muttered as she scribbled. "Really?" I answered. I was blissfully unaware. Most people are unaware of the natural behaviour of horses. We rarely see breeding groups of stallions, mares, fillies, colts and foals interact, or groups of bachelor stallions and what Telané refers to as 'outsider' stallions that live on the fringes. I was about to receive my introduction to the lives of wild horses, living as they did before they were domesticated. It certainly was an eye-opener.
All the wild horses in the world, with the exception of a single population, originate from domestic stock. Horses were domesticated on the Eurasian steppes 5,000 to 6,000 years ago, and have been in service to humankind ever since. It was on the horse's back that civilisation advanced. Countries were explored, wars were fought, agriculture and industry progressed at the expense of the horse's freedom. The only horse population that was never domesticated, and still exists in its true genetic form, is Przewalski's Horse or the Mongolian Wild Horse. Considered extinct at the end of the twentieth century, the small breeding herd that survived in captivity has since been reintroduced into its natural environment.
Over the next few journeys, I would begin to understand that there is a natural flux among the Namib breeding groups, like streams joining a river and diverging at a later point to converge again. It involves fillies dispersing from their natal groups, groups splitting and mares moving between stallions. We discussed dominance hierarchies, something that has long been taken as fact, but Telané has different ideas.
Unlike some of the pecking orders described in other wild horse populations, there is no set norm among the Namib horses. "It's not black and white," she told me, "it varies from situation to situation, and between groups. It also depends on the bonds between individuals." I discovered that, unless stressed, the groups generally interact peacefully. When there is conflict among stallions, it is usually a matter of show with a lot of quick rearing without bodily contact or any real aggression. I puzzled over a question that is on the tip of many tongues: have the horses adapted physiologically to their environment or have they adapted their behaviour? Telané explained that they have learned to adapt their behaviour to their desert surroundings by balancing their drinking time with the time needed to find grazing. They have learned to tolerate levels of dehydration that a domestic horse would find extremely stressful.
WW1 military pedigree
That other big question, 'Why are they in the Namib?' soon crept into our conversation and Telané said it is likely that the Namib horses stem from two groups: Kubub stud horses bred for the diamond mines in the desert and the racecourses of Lüderitz that made their way from the Kubub farm to Garub during the tumultuous period of WWI; and military horses that escaped when the Union base at Garub was bombed by retreating German troops. These two groups would have gathered at Garub borehole, the only permanent source of water in the area and the crucial link to their remarkable story of survival.
We drove to the old windswept borehole. It had been maintained by South African Railways, with the support of Consolidated Diamond Mines, until a portion of the Sperrgebiet – the restricted diamond mining territory, which had protected the horses for so many years – became part of Namib Naukluft Park in 1986. A few years later new water troughs were built four kilometres to the east where the Garub viewpoint is today.
Being wild means living according to the seasons, be it drought or rain
It hasn't been a life of luxury for these horses, whose genes have been tempered by the harshness of the environment and the droughts in the desert, keeping the numbers at an average of 200 horses. Media coverage during the droughts of the 90s brought them into the spotlight when photographs of gaunt horses were splashed across the newspapers. Grandmas reached into their pockets and children into their piggy banks to purchase lucerne. But it also brought a harsh fact of life to the fore, that being wild meant living according to the seasons of the land, whether that is years of rainfall and plentiful grazing or periods of drought and hunger.
Concerns raised after the drought led to a workshop in 2005 where experts from diverse fields spent days discussing to gain a clearer picture of the situation and formulate a management plan for the future. They arrived at the conclusion that continual monitoring is needed, and recommended a policy of minimal interference except in cases of severe drought where intervention could be contemplated if the population dipped to a point where it would affect the genetic diversity, or if it rose above the carrying capacity of the land. It was realised that supplementary feed may be needed in times of drought as fences block optimum grazing and natural water holes. Interestingly, Telané has conducted further in-depth research as part of her doctoral thesis which establishes that the horses do not displace or negatively impact the indigenous flora or fauna in any way.
The wild horses, or "Namibs" as they are sometimes called, have become increasingly popular. They have also become synonymous with the rugged allure and beauty of Namibia, its wide-open spaces and the spirit of freedom.
'I helped move an injured foal off the road as its mother called for it'
It has been several years since I first watched the horses on that chilly winter's day. In the interim period, the desert was blessed with a carpet of green grass. During that time of abundance, the horses spent more time relaxing near the waterhole with no need to travel long distances to search for grazing and they became more habituated to people at the hide. Circumstances then changed and only a sprinkling of rain has graced the land over the last two years. Once again, we are experiencing a drought. The old or sick horses and the newborn foals have died or been targeted by spotted hyenas. A few have also been struck by vehicles on the road that cuts through their area. I helped move an injured foal off the road as its mother called for it from the fields, and I hoped it would be spared. It survived for a while but then disappeared, becoming part of the perpetual cycle of life and death in the wilderness.
A few months ago I packed up camp early, before the heat began to beat down with a vengeance, and made my way to the Garub viewpoint. As the sun began to colour the dry earth and light up the horses approaching from the far hills, I heard a car pull up. It was Telané. We sat together in the hide and watched the wild horses gallop to the water with a life-affirming energy and presence. Life carried on.

Following on from my lessons in brick stitch and ladder stitch I have been having a go at right angle weave. I have done this before (just never known what it is called) and so managed this with little incident. I made an amazing bracelet (there I go again – praising myself. I must stop this habit):
The right angle weave is basically a series of square joined together:
When the bracelet is long enough you taper the ends by making two triangles on the outer edges. The middle square stays the same.
I can see myself making these in different colours to go with different outfits.
I have also had a go at making some earrings to go with the bracelet. They are very similar to one of the sections of the bracelet:

What does grading (Easy, Moderate, Difficult, Strenuous) means?
"Grading" is a term used for rating treks based on difficulty. According to Himalayan Glacier standards and experience, we have divided the trekking into four types, namely Easy, Moderate, Difficult and Strenuous- the challenge in terms of both technicality and geography increases as we move higher in that order. Thus, Easy Treks could be suitable for all while Strenuous and Difficult Treks are meant only for those who have certain experience and capability.
This can help you choose a trek or climb especially in the Himalayan Region that best suits your fitness level and experience. Please keep in mind that this is a general guide only. A variety of factors, including weather, may add to the challenge.
Easy Treks
No previous trek experience and any physical preparation are required to attempt this trek. An interest in walking will be enough to take up such treks. Such treks usually vary from 2 days hike to 5 days trekking and can reach up to an altitude of 3000 m. Treks usually on well maintained paths and passes through ridges and involve walking up to 5 hours a day.
Moderate Treks
Moderate Treks will require at least 6-7 hours of walking every day, crossing 4000 m above high altitude passes, and long and exhausting walks through often rough trails, rocks and boulders. Therefore, you will require physical and mental fitness, positive attitude and interests and previous hiking or camping experience is preferred. You should prepare to face high altitude.
Difficult Treks
Previous trekking experience and technical knowledge is essential in Difficult Treks. Besides walking through rough trails for 6-7 hours and crossing high passes as high as 5000 m, you will also be glacier crossings on snow/ice. You will be facing high altitude air with low level of oxygen and continuous walking over huge stretch of Himalayan valleys. Positive attitude and perseverance is required.
Strenuous Treks
Strenuous Treks involve long days, long hours of challenging walks, high altitude passes above 5000 m, difficult terrains and glacier and snow walking. No doubt you need to be mentally and physically fit and in excellent health condition. As part of technical requirements, you will require to have rock and ice climbing experience with the knowledge of use of ice axe and crampons. You should consider joining one of the rock climbing and glacier walking classes prior to heading for Trek.
Are there ATM facilities in Nepal?
There are many ATM machines in the Kathmandu and Pokhara Valley. ATM machines are slowly being introduced to other cities like Bhuwtal and Dharan.
What types of cards are accepted? Debit or Credit? Visas or Masters or Discovers or Dinners?
Most popular cards accepted in Nepal are VISA, MASTERCARD and American Express. Both Debit and Credit Cards are accepted here. American Travelers Cheques are also accepted in most Banks, Hotels, and Travel companies.
Are there any tourist police in Nepal?
Of course there is tourist police located near the Nepal Tourism Development Board's Office. Also, there are complaint counters at the airport and Basantapur Durbar Square. Tourist police are specially trained in English and have detailed local knowledge to assist tourists. For security and travel related assistance, you can reach any of the officers from telephone 4-247041, 4-4268969 during 11 a.m to 5 p.m

In 1980, the 223 Remington was transformed into a new cartridge and designated 5.56×45mm NATO (SS109 or M855). This new round uses a 62-gr full metal jacket bullet with a 7-grain steel core for better penetration against lightly armored targets, specifically to meet the NATO requirement that the bullet be able to penetrate through one side of a World War II U.S. 10mm ammo for sale Texas
M1 helmet at 800 m (which was also the requirement for the 7.62mm NATO). It had a slightly lower muzzle velocity than its predecessor, but better long-range performance due to higher sectional density and a superior drag coefficient. This requirement made the 5.56mm NATO round less capable of fragmentation than the 223 Remington and thus it was considered more humane. 10mm bulk ammo
Dimensions ">
The external dimensional specifications of 223 Remington and 5.56×45mm NATO brass cases are nearly identical. The cases tend to have similar case capacity when measured (case capacities have been observed to vary by as much as 2.6 grains (0.17 ml), although the shoulder profile and neck length are not the same and 5.56×45mm NATO cartridge cases tend be slightly thicker to accommodate higher chamber pressures. full power 10mm ammo
When handloaded, care is taken to look for pressure signs as 5.56×45mm NATO cases may produce higher pressures with the same type of powder and bullet as compared to 223 Remington cases. Sierra provides separate loading sections for 223 Remington and 5.56×45mm NATO and also recommends different loads for bolt-action rifles as compared to semiautomatic rifles. underwood ammo 10mm

By Jennifer Weymark, Archivist
For a number of years, I have been undertaking research into early Black history in the Oshawa area. This inquiry is part of a larger shift in our focus here at the Oshawa Museum.
Prior to 2011, there had been minimal research into the history of the Black population in Oshawa. Some initial work had been done examining census information but that was the extent. When we were approached to take part in Trent University's inaugural Black History event, we realized how little time had been dedicated to this area of Oshawa's history. The invitation to the event spurred a new project that helps to tell the history of a local family from the 1790s to today. It also helps to tell a more inclusive and, more importantly, a more accurate history of early Oshawa settlers.
This project signaled a shift in where we focus our research, to help fill the gap in our knowledge of our community. A great deal of research has been conducted on the many industries and industrialists who helped shape Oshawa; what was missing was looking into those who worked for the industrialists, those whose labour made the factories so successful, and telling their stories. It is the experiences of the "everyday person" who help to truly understand what the community looked like in the past and how it has evolved today. Currently, we are working to tell the history of women, those who arrived in Oshawa as Displaced Persons post WWII, the Indigenous population who called this area home long before European settlers arrived and those whose names may not be recognizable but who helped shape our community.
I presented a paper on the research into early Black history at the Canadian Historical Association's annual conference at the end of May. The paper discussed how shifting our research focus not only helps to tell a more accurate history of the community but helps to make the past more relatable the current Oshawa residents, strengthening the sense of community and spurring interest in our past with those who may not have been interested previously.

Correspondence Address:Dr. Adalagere Sathyanarayana LakshmiDepartment of Cardiac Anesthesia and Critical Care, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, Bangalore - 560 069, Karnataka IndiaSource of Support: None, Conflict of Interest: NoneDOI: 10.4103/ARWY.ARWY_2_19
Source of Support: None, Conflict of Interest: None
Background: Respiratory complications after cardiac surgery increase morbidity, mortality and length of hospital stay. Oxygen administered using a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) improves oxygenation because of its ease of implementation, tolerance and clinical effectiveness. We sought to compare this technique with conventional oxygen therapy (OT) after extubation following paediatric cardiac surgery. We compared HFNC versus conventional OT in postoperative paediatric cardiac surgical patients. Our primary objective was to evaluate the relative efficiency of improving PaCO2elimination in the first 48 h following extubation. Patients and Methods: A single-centre, prospective, unblinded, randomised controlled trial was conducted in a 15-bedded post-cardiac intensive care unit on 50 paediatric cardiac surgical patients <2 years of age undergoing elective surgery with Risk Adjustment for Congenital Heart Surgery score ≥2. At the start of weaning off ventilation, patients were randomly assigned to either of the following groups: HFNC or OT. Arterial blood samples were collected before and following extubation at the following time points: 1, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h. While the primary outcome was comparison of arterial PaCO2post-extubation, the secondary outcomes were PaO2and PaO2/FIO2 ratios and any complications associated with either technique. Continuous data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation and compared using independent samples t-test or the Mann–Whitney U-test. Chi-square test was used for categorical parameters. Results: Demographic and clinical variables were comparable in the two groups. PaO2and PaO2/FIO2 ratios were significantly improved in the HFNC group (P < 0.05) with lesser requirement of FIO2(P < 0.05) in comparison to conventional OT. No complications were observed during HFNC therapy, nor was there any treatment failure. Conclusion: Compared with conventional OT, the use of HFNC following extubation in paediatric cardiac surgical patients appears to be safe, improves oxygenation and carbon dioxide elimination with lesser inspired oxygen concentration.
Keywords: Conventional oxygen therapy, high-flow nasal cannula, postoperative paediatric cardiac surgery

- Calendar
- Online Resources
This course introduces the basics of networking, ranging from sending bits over wires to the Web and distributed computing. We focus on the networking ground between these two extremes, particularly focusing on the engineering of the Internet - goals, constraints, solutions, and experiences. The outcome of this course for you should be an appreciation of the fundamental challenges of networking, design strategies of proven value, and common implementation technologies. Topics will include: framing, error correction, packet switching, multi-access (Ethernet), addressing and forwarding (IP), distance vector and link state routing, queueing and scheduling, reliable transport, congestion control (TCP), quality of service, naming (DNS), and security.
Course Structure
It's likely that there will be elements of this course that aren't quite what you were expecting. Some explanation of what is going on, structurally, may help in understanding what to concentrate on, should things get murky.
There are basically three main threads to the course. The first is learning the specifics of how the major Internet components are built and operate. This means, for example, learning about IP, BGP, TCP, DNS, and HTTP. Becoming familiar with these specifics is important, they affect and explain a lot about how current systems are built. This thread is most directly addressed by the text and the lectures.
The second thread is a more general set of concepts/problems that arise whenever networking is involved, that is, abstracting from the specific Internet solutions to the more general problem and its potential solutions. You'll confront these problems every time you write any networked code, and so understanding what they are is another important goal. As you see, when you build a networked application you'll have to address many of the same issues that the Internet fabric itself must address. Your understanding of the specific solutions used by the Internet can help you, so long as you can abstract its lessons.
The final thread of the Winter 2016 offering of this course is security and anonymity. The course project will involve those topics, even if they're not the main points of the project.
Officially Required
- CSE 451: because concurrency is inherent in networking.
There is a substantial project for this course. You are free to do it in whatever programming language you prefer. That, of course, means that there will be no starter/skeleton code. (We will be supplying pieces of the application, but you interact with them only over the network, not by direct invocation at the programming language level.)
Assignments / ProjectsThere will be up to three kinds of assignments given throughout the class:
- Reading: you will be given reading assignments from the course textbook associated with each lecture. You should try to finish the reading before coming to the lecture. We will be covering a large fraction of the topics in the text. It won't be easy to catch up if you fall behind. (From time to time the text may be supplemented with additional reading.)
- Textbook(-style) questions: Some assignments may include questions from the text, occasionally supplemented with similar questions I invent.
- Projects: You don't want to come out of
a networking course having never once written code that sends data across an actual
network. You won't.
The projects are cumulative (later projects will make use of earlier ones) and communal. By communal I mean that your code will have to interact successfully with everyone else's (over the network).
Projects will be done in teams. Your team can have one or two members. I don't have any magic solutions for teams that aren't working out. You can switch partners between projects.
Start projects early. There are countless things that can go wrong. Run into those things early, when you can afford to suspend working until you get help, rather than 4 hours before the project is due.
There will be one midterm and a final exam for this course. The dates are subject to change, with reasonable advance notice. It is especially possible the format and scheduling of the final exam will change. As an example, it could become a take-home exam.
- Midterm: Friday, February 5
- Final: Thursday, March 17, 8:30-10:20
This might be "fine tuned" later, but grades will be assigned roughly as follows:
- Assignments/Projects: 55%
- Midterm: 15%
- Final: 30%
- Late Policy: There is a 10% penalty for each
late day, or portion thereof. You get two free late days - two days of lateness
with no penalty - to use at your discretion. (That's four days total for a team of
- Reasonableness: No set of rules
can apply perfectly in every setting. Reasonable exceptions can be made.
- Cheating vs. Collaboration:
Collaboration is a very good thing. On the other hand, cheating is considered
a very serious offense, and is vigorously prosecuted. Vigorous prosecution
requires that you be advised of the cheating policy of the course before the offending
act. For this course, the policy is simple: don't cheat. You know it when you're doing it.
We'll recognize it when you do it.
That said, collaborating is, for many people, an effective way to learn. Learning isn't cheating. Misrepresenting that you've learned something, or done the work that implies you've learned something, almost certainly is.

On June 14, Lucian Vâlsan, Huffnágel Pista and James Huff will be talking about the ever increasing demand of "toning down" or "moderation" as if being polite, or politically correct, actually helps. There is little to no doubt that our approach of FTSU has proven to be a better one than just being polite and kindly ask for the feminist establishment to respect the principles of individual rights, or even their own principles for that matter.
Nonetheless, these "appeals to moderation" keep appearing. We, in Europe, have been living under a politically correct culture longer than North America – maybe even longer for those in Eastern Europe where "mandates of truth" from the establishment where all too often encountered on many issues.
The debate on what you ("you" being a general term) can't say is long but a discussion in our show is worth having. We recommend the listeners to read this essay[1] as we'll base our talk on that one.
What is political correctness? Should we tone down? Why (not)?
The subject is tricky so please join us and call in at (001) 310 388 9709, or Skype in, after the news.
The show will commence at 7 PM GMT (London, Reykjavik and Lisbon time).
That is 8 PM CET (Madrid, Paris, Brussels, Rome, Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Budapest, Berlin, Vienna, Warsaw, Amsterdam, Bern, Bratislava, Prague, Belgrade, Tirana, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Sarajevo and Skopje time)
That is 9 PM EET (Helsinki, Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Kiev, Chisinau, Bucharest, Sofia, Athens, Ankara and Nicosia time)
That is 10 PM FEET (Minsk time)
And, finally, 11 PM Moscow time.
And for the listeners from North America this means 2 PM EST, 1 PM CST, 12 PM MST and 11 AM PST (times adjusted in accordance with DST both for Europe and North America).

…do NOT rely on receiving statements in the mail, if you don't do all your banking on line. DO NOT rely on what your credit card computerized system tells you ON THE LAST DAY, before you experience FINES for late payments!!!
We know, or should know, that timely payments on all our bills, but particularly on credit cards, are essential not only to establish a good credit score, but also because the second you MISS the deadline for paying at least a minimum payment on what you owe, you get a fine. Mine is $25.00!!!
As I was driving today, my subconscious mind "spoke to me," (very bad timing, never let your subconscious talk while you drive) and it whispered: "Isn't your credit card due today???
In a panic, I dialed the customer care as soon as I got home. I didn't receive a paper statement… may be because of the Holidays…???
The ROBOT lady informed me of all my options: PAYMENT!!! I shouted several times, and she understood me, at last! Then calmly, as nothing could anger a lady robot, she informed me: "NO PAYMENT IS DUE, DO YOU STILL WANT TO MAKE A PAYMENT?"
"Cool," I thought, but then she said something about my points. I wasn't sure what to do with points, or what they were, and also, in the back of my mind I had a nagging suspicion that my card payment was due TODAY!
I asked clearly the robot lady: "REPRESENTATIVE, please."
"Sorry, please select one of the following options…"
Okay, none of her options were a human!
I asked calmly again, but skipped the please, as it didn't seem to help.
No, she was stubborn, so I shouted:
"Human, human, I need to speak to a HUMAN!!!"
After hesitations, and her voice sounded hurt… may be:)) I was transferred to an "ASSOCIATE." Please take note, not a representative but associate is what the robot will likely understand.
Once I was speaking to a human, I asked about the points and what they meant, but the "subconscious voice," nagged me again about the last date when I could pay my credit card without a $25.00 penalty. So, as I always listen to my inner voice, I asked the associate:
"Could you please check WHEN IS MY PAYMENT DUE, your automated system told me there was NO amount due and I didn't get a statement."
YOU GUESSED IT!!! Indeed, my payment was due today. The robot was wrong and I had no statement.
I made my payment on time just because I listened to my … inner fear? voice? God?
I politely told the associate," This has nothing to do with you, personally, you are doing a great job, but this sucks for the clients… is this ON PURPOSE? I hope we are on a recorded line and I ask that you report what happened to your Manager."
I hang up and in addition to sharing with you this experience, I learned my lesson to write down the due dates of ALL my bills and not "expect anyone else," to remind me, or tell me the truth, even if it is their responsibility. Whom was I going to blame if I were late? The robot?
One last thought… always try to pay the entire amount due on your credit card on time. If you cannot, at least make a payment MORE than the minimum required. If you check your statements (if you get hold of them) you will notice that interest compounds and if you make minimum payments and continue to use your card, soon you will be at your credit limit and in debt.
In conclusion:
Pay your credit card on time and do not trust the robots!

Corticotropin-releasing factor enhances brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene expression to facilitate memory retention in rats
Ma YL, Chen KY, Wei CL, Lee EH
Institute of Biomedical Sciences,
Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC.
Chin J Physiol 1999 Jun 30; 42(2):73-81
ABSTRACTIn the present study, we investigated the effects of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) injected into the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA expression and studied whether N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor mediates the effects of CRF on BDNF mRNA expression in the DG. Since both CRF and BDNF gene expressions are involved in memory processing in rats, we further investigated whether CRF facilitates memory retention through enhanced BDNF mRNA expression in the hippocampus. Effect of direct BDNF injection to the DG on retention performance in rats was also assessed. Results indicated that intra-DG CRF injection produced a dose-dependent (0.1 microg, 1.0 microg and 10 microg) increase in BDNF mRNA level, while intra-DG MK801 injection produced a dose-dependent (0.08 microg, 0.2 microg and 2.0 microg) decrease in BDNF mRNA expression in the DG. MK801, at a dose having no significant effect alone (0.08 microg), significantly antagonized the effect of CRF on BDNF mRNA expression. On the other hand, CRF (1.0 microg) consistently and markedly improved retention performance in rats in an inhibitory avoidance learning task. BDNF antisense oligonucleotide treatment, at a concentration which did not affect retention performance alone (0.5 mM), blocked the memory-enhancing effect of CRF. However, direct and chronic BDNF injection to the DG did not improve memory performance in rats. These results together suggest that at least one of the mechanisms responsible for the memory-facilitating effect of CRF is mediated through enhanced BDNF mRNA expression in the hippocampus. The lack of an effect of intra-DG BDNF injection on memory retention is also discussed.CRF

Ryan Reynolds Warns Fan Not To Watch Green Lantern
A fan recently took to Twitter to ask Ryan Reynolds if he should rent Green Lantern on Apple TV because it was on sale for $0.99. Even at that price, though, Reynolds still told him to "walk away." Yes, nine years after the film released and the Canadian actor is still steering people away from his first shot at the superhero genre.
I actually recently re-watched Green Lantern on HBO. It was my first time seeing it since it came out in June of 2011 and upon further review, it's still not very good. It certainly isn't anywhere near the worst superhero movie ever made, but it's just a forgettable entry in the genre despite the immense talent involved.
But circling back to Reynolds' Tweet, and you can see it for yourself down below:
Walk away.
— Ryan Reynolds (@VancityReynolds) April 25, 2020
It's easy to forget how many talented people came together for Green Lantern. Tim Robbins is in it and so is Angela Bassett. And even Taika Waititi. Yes, he plays Reynolds' best friend and I didn't even recognize him until about halfway through the film. He has some strange American accent and there isn't one ounce of charm or humor from him in the pic.
In fact, that's the number one thing that hasn't aged well about Green Lantern. Not the unmemorable story, the suspect CGI (particularly Hal Jordan's suit) or Peter Sarsgaard's giant head. It's that director Martin Campbell somehow managed to make Taiki Waititi not funny.
And Campbell is one of the very best action directors there is. He made GoldenEye and Casino Royale, not to mention The Mask of Zorro and the underrated Vertical Limit. What went wrong, then?
Well, based on the films I just mentioned, he's an old-school blockbuster director who likes to shoot practical set pieces. As such, Green Lantern was just the wrong material for him to dip his toe into the genre with. There were too many special effects and he clearly had a hard time shooting with so much green screen.
It actually worked out great for Reynolds, though. He met his future wife, Blake Lively, on the movie and it's given him lots of material to use. Besides the social media jabs, he managed to work Green Lantern jokes into both Deadpool films, including a hilarious mid-credits scene in Deadpool 2 where he goes back in time to shoot himself in the head after reading the script for Green Lantern and deciding to do it.
It looks like the next time we see Green Lantern, it'll be in a television show for HBO Max. Until then, though, continue to enjoy Reynolds poking fun at the movie and anyone who wants to rent it. Surely he's still getting residuals for the film, right?

Week beginning 7th October 2013
A very late and short report this week! I was called for jury duty this week, and I had to turn up to court every day, mostly to sit around waiting to see if they wanted me. On the whole they didn't, although I was picked as a juror on Tuesday. The trial only lasted a couple of hours before a plea bargain was accepted, though. I still had to continue turning up each day after that, even though I had served on a jury, which I thought was a little unfair. However, it is an important part of our civic duty so I didn't mind really.
In addition to the search term highlighting I implemented the options to view and download plain text versions of the documents and I also reworked the 'view document information' page. Previously this was a separate page but instead I've made all the information appear in a 'dialog' style overlay. The information is actually just located in a 'div' element in the page so the 'print' version of the CSS will be able to print all of this information out ok. The old version of the 'info' page included a considerable amount of information that wasn't actually all that useful – e.g. every type of 'text medium' was listed, including those that were not applicable – the not applicable ones were listed with 'false' after them. This (in my opinion) really cluttered up the information and made it difficult to pinpoint the useful data, so I've got rid of all of the 'false' rows now.
There's still a lot to do for the document page, specifically implementing the display of audio and video files. And I'll tackle this next week.

What's Up Newp wants to help Newport County and Rhode Island cope with the COVID-19 situation. The inaugural part of our plan is to serve as a platform to help our readers assist each other.
Every day going forward, What's Up Newp will launch "Coping with Covid". We will open a new string nightly on our Facebook Page at 5 pm.
We invite readers to share their questions and concerns. These may vary from the signs and symptoms of the COVID-19 coronavirus, to caring for sick children or adults at home, adjustments to school and work schedules, tips for working from home, child care issues, entertainment ideas, postponements and cancellations — even dealing with self-quarantine situations.
This will also be a place to ask for help, are you a senior or have a preexisting condition and following all precautions, but need something from the store or a restaurant order picked up? We want to connect those locals who need help with those who can offer help. Heck, we will even get out of the house and help ya if need be. You can ask or offer help nightly in our post, or direct message us and we will connect individuals privately. If you need something, ask. If you have something to offer, let us know.
Our hope is also that other readers will share solutions and ideas to help all of us cope with a situation that's unprecedented in modern American society.
"COPING WITH COVID" will NOT be a place to complain, spread rumors or conspiracy theories, make sarcastic remarks, assign blame, write about politics or post memes. Posters who fail to abide by this rule will have their comments hidden and if they persist, will be permanently banned from the What's Up Newp page on Facebook.
Thanks to our friends, and fellow LION Publisher members, Magnolia Reporter for the inspiration and idea behind this.

Automate your business processes in Customer Engagement (on-premises)
Business processes are an integral part of any enterprise software application. A business process can be of two types: automated processes that rely solely on communication among applications based on a set of rules, and interactive processes that also rely on people to initiate and run the process, and to make the appropriate decisions during the running of the process.
In Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises), a process enables you to create and manage your automated and interactive business processes. While the name has been changed from workflow to process, the entity that's used to implement a process is still called workflow. A Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) process provides many out-of-the-box components that business users and administrators can use to model their business processes. Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) also offers developers a mechanism to extend and customize the standard behavior of processes to achieve the functionality that their business applications require by allowing them to develop custom components.
A Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) process is based on the Windows Workflow Foundation programming model. Windows Workflow Foundation provides a runtime engine, a framework, a base library of activities, and default implementations of the runtime services. The Windows Workflow Foundation runtime engine manages process execution, and supports processes that can remain active for extended periods of time. It preserves the state of process execution during computer shutdown and restart.

Mario Batali Is Sorry
Earlier today, Forbes writer Jeff Bercovici reported that last night at the Time magazine Person of the Year debate, restaurateur Mario Batali likened the banking industry to "Stalin or Hitler," Joe and Adolf, respectively. The collective members of the banking industry did not take this well. They banned expensed lunches at all of Batali's eateries, took to Bloomberg's restaurant review pages to express their outrage and vowed not to line his pockets with another dime, while also taking shots at Mario's signature and beloved orange Crocs. Moments ago, Batali choose to take to the airwaves with a response to the backlash. While he would have received credit for kicking things up a notch with an ice cold "You won't be missed" or "Apologies...for failing to mention another luminary you remind me of, the late, great Benito Mussolini," he choose to go with this:
We cool?

Police: Mother accidentally ran over 1-year-old daughter in driveway of Louisville home
LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Police are calling the moment a toddler was hit in the driveway of her Louisville home a "tragic accident."
The 18-month-old child was hit outside her home in the 6100 block of Ashby Lane around 5:15 p.m. Tuesday. Ashby Lane is just north of the intersection of Dixie Highway and the Gene Snyder Freeway.
She later died at Norton Children's Hospital.
LMPD's Homicide Unit launched a death investigation into the circumstances surrounding the toddler's death.
The initial investigation revealed the child's mother left her 18-month-old daughter and three-year-old sibling in their home when she said she went out to the driveway to move a car.
As the mother was backing up, she told police she heard a scream and immediately jumped out of the car. That's when she found her daughter had left the house and wandered into the driveway -- into the path of the vehicle.
CPR was started at the scene, MetroSafe confirmed.
Emergency crews closed streets to rush the child to Norton Children's Hospital.
Sometime after the child's arrival at the hospital, she was pronounced dead.
The little girl has not been identified. Her three-year-old sibling remained in the house during the accident.
