JavaScript/JavaScript within HTML

The language JavasScript was originally introduced to run in browsers and handle the dynamic aspects of user interfaces, e.g., validation of user input, modifications of page content (DOM) or appearance of the user interface (CSS), or any event handling. This implies that an interconnection point from HTML to JS must exist. The HTML element  plays this role. It is a regular HTML element, and its content is JS.

The  element may appear almost anywhere within the HTML file, within   as well as in. There are only a few criteria for choosing an optimal place; see below.

Internal vs. external JavaScript
The  element either contains JS code directly, or it points to an external file resp. URL containing the JS code through its  attribute. The first variant is called Internal JavaScript or Inline JavaScript, the second External JavaScript.

In the case of Internal JavaScript the  element looks like:

Internal scripting has the advantage that both your HTML and your JS are in one file, which is convenient for quick development. This is commonly used for temporarily testing out some ideas, and in situations where the script code is small or specific to that one page.

For the External JavaScript the  element looks like:

Separate Files for Javascript Code
Having your JS in a separate file is recommended for larger programs, especially for such which are used on multiple pages. Furthermore, such splits support the pattern of Separation of Concerns: One specialist works on HTML, and another on JS. Also, it supports the division of the page's content (HTML) from its behavior (JS).

Overall, using External scripting is considered a best practice for software development.

Remote Code Injection vs. Local Library
With the example  you can inject remotely maintained code from the server   in your local web project. Remote code updates may break your local project or unwanted code features may be injected into your web project. On the other hand, centralized maintained and updated libraries serve your project due to bugfixes that are automatically updated in your project when the library is fetched again from the remote server.

Minified vs. Non-Minified Code
Minified Javascript code compresses the source code e.g. by shorting comprehensive variables like vImage into a single character variable a. This reduces significantly the size of the library and therefore reduces network traffic and response time until the web page is ready. For development and learning it might be helpful to have the uncompressed libraries locally available.

External JavaScript
For more detailed information you can refer to MDN.

The attribute
Adding  to the opening   tag means that the JS code will be located in a file called myScript.js in the same directory as the HTML file. If the JS file is located somewhere else, you must change the  attribute to that path. For example, if it is located in a subdirectory called js, it reads.

The attribute
JS is not the only scripting language for Web development, but JS is the most common one on client-side (PHP runs on server-side). Therefore it's considered the default script type for HTML5. The formal notation for the type is:. Older HTML versions know a lot of other script types. Nowadays, all of them are graded as legacy. Some examples are:,  ,  , or.

In HTML5, the spec says that - if you use JS - the  attribute should be omitted from the script element, for Internal Scripting as well as for External Scripting.

The and   attributes
Old browsers use only one or two threads to read and parse HTML, JS, CSS, ... . This may lead to a bad user experience (UX) because of the latency time when loading HTML, JS, CSS, images, ... sequentially one after the next. When the page loads for the first time, the user may have the impression of a slow system.

Current browsers can execute many tasks in parallel. To initiate this parallel execution with regards to JS loading and execution, the  element can be extended with the two attributes   and.

The attribute  leads to asynchronous script loading (in parallel with other tasks), and execution as soon as it is available.

acts similar. It differs from  in that the execution is deferred until the page is fully parsed.

Location of elements
The  element may appear almost anywhere within the HTML file. But there are, however, some best practices for speeding up a website. Some people suggest to locate it just before the closing  tag. This speeds up downloading, and also allows for direct manipulation of the Document Object Model (DOM) while it is rendered. But a similar behavior is initiated by the above-described  and   attributes.

The element
It may happen that people have deactivated JS in their browsers for security or other reasons. Or, they use very old browsers which are not able to run JS at all. To inform users in such cases about the situation, there is the  element. It contains text that will be shown in the browser. The text shall explain that no JS code will be executed.

JavaScript in XHTML files
XHTML uses a stricter syntax than HTML. This leads to small differences.

First, for Internal JavaScript it's necessary that the scripts are introduced and finished with the two additional lines shown in the following example.

Second, for External JavaScript the   attribute is required.

Alfred Young Allee

Alfred Young Allee (September 14, 1905 – January 13, 1987) was the American grandson of Alfred Allee who became sheriff of Karnes County, Texas in 1892. He was born in La Salle County, Texas and became a Texas Ranger like his father and grandfather.

Early history
In 1926, Alfred was a game warden in Zavala County, Texas and became a deputy sheriff for the county in 1927.

Texas Rangers
In 1931, Alfred joined the Texas Rangers was a part of Captain Light Townsend's C Company. In 1933, he resigned after Miriam "Ma" Ferguson was elected governor of Texas and became deputy sheriff in Beeville, Texas. Many other Texas Rangers also resigned at this time in protest of corruption from Ma's previous and future term.

In 1935, a new governor (James V. Allred) was elected and Alfred rejoined the Texas Rangers. Alfred ended up serving thirty-seven years as a Texas Ranger.

Reputation
In 1966, Texas farm workers walked off their jobs to protest low pay and poor working conditions. To stop the strikes, the ranch owners called in the Texas Rangers, with Allee serving as captain. After the Rangers used biased enforcement (e.g., dispersing "crowds" of farm workers from the courthouse steps, while allowing other groups to congregate there) and violence, the farm workers brought a lawsuit against them, with Allee as the first-named defendant. The case was eventually heard in the U.S. Supreme Court as Allee v. Medrano (1974). Delivering the court's decision, William O. Douglas told of a "violent and brutal" arrest led by Allee.

America's Lost Treasures
In July 2012, Captain Allee's gun was chosen during the first episode of America's Lost Treasures as "special recognition for the importance of the artifact in American history, which will be featured in a special exhibit at the National Geographic Museum in Washington, D.C., coming in 2013."

Introduction to Paleoanthropology/Hominids Early Chronology

Between 8 million and 4 million years ago
Fossils of Sahelanthropus tchadensis (6-7 million years) and Orrorin tugenensis (6 million years), discovered in 2001 and 2000 respectively, are still a matter of debate.

The discoverers of Orrorin tugenensis claim the fossils represent the real ancestor of modern humans and that the other early hominids (e.g., Australopithecus and Paranthropus) are side branches. They base their claim on their assessment that this hominid was bipedal (2 million years earlier than previously thought) and exhibited expressions of certain traits that were more modern than those of other early hominids. Other authorities disagree with this analysis and some question whether this form is even a hominid. At this point, there is too little information to do more than mention these two new finds of hominids. As new data come in, however, a major part of our story could change.

Fossils of Ardipithecus ramidus (4.4 million years ago) were different enough from any found previously to warrant creating a new hominid genus. Although the evidence from the foramen magnum indicates that they were bipedal, conclusive evidence from legs, pelvis and feet remain somewhat enigmatic. There might be some consensus that A. ramidus represent a side branch of the hominid family.

Between 4 million and 2 million years ago
Australopithecus anamensis (4.2-3.8 million years ago) exhibit mixture of primitive (large canine teeth, parallel tooth rows) and derived (vertical root of canine, thicker tooth enamel) features, with evidence of bipedalism. There appears to be some consensus that this may represent the ancestor of all later hominids.

The next species is well established and its nature is generally agreed upon: Australopithecus afarensis (4-3 million years ago). There is no doubt that A. afarensis were bipeds. This form seems to still remain our best candidate for the species that gave rise to subsequent hominids.

At the same time lived a second species of hominid in Chad: Australopithecus bahrelghazali (3.5-3 million years ago). It suggests that early hominids were more widely spread on the African continent than previously thought. Yet full acceptance of this classification and the implications of the fossil await further study.

Another fossil species contemporaneous with A. afarensis existed in East Africa: Kenyanthropus platyops (3.5 million years ago). The fossils show a combination of features unlike that of any other forms: brain size, dentition, details of nasal region resemble genus Australopithecus; flat face, cheek area, brow ridges resemble later hominids. This set of traits led its discoverers to give it not only a new species name but a new genus name as well. Some authorities have suggested that this new form may be a better common ancestor for Homo than A. afarensis. More evidence and more examples with the same set of features, however, are needed to even establish that these fossils do represent a whole new taxonomy.

Little changed from A. afarensis to the next species: A. africanus: same body size and shape, and same brain size. There are a few differences, however: canine teeth are smaller, no gap in tooth row, tooth row more rounded (more human-like).

We may consider A. africanus as a continuation of A. afarensis, more widely distributed in southern and possibly eastern Africa and showing some evolutionary changes. It should be noted that this interpretation is not agreed upon by all investigators and remains hypothetical.

Fossils found at Bouri in Ethiopia led investigators to designate a new species: A. garhi (2.5 million years ago). Intriguing mixture of features: several features of teeth resemble early Homo; whereas molars are unusually larger, even larger than the southern African robust australopithecines.

The evolutionary relationship of A. garhi to other hominids is still a matter of debate. Its discoverers feel it is descended from A. afarensis and is a direct ancestor to Homo. Other disagree. Clearly, more evidence is needed to interpret these specimens more precisely, but they do show the extent of variation among hominids during this period.

Two distinctly different types of hominid appear between 2 and 3 million years ago: robust australopithecines (Paranthropus) and early Homo (Homo habilis).

The first type retains the chimpanzee-sized brains and small bodies of Australopithecus, but has evolved a notable robusticity in the areas of the skull involved with chewing: this is the group of robust australopithecines (A. boisei, A. robustus, A. aethiopicus).
 * The Australopithecines diet seems to have consisted for the most part of plant foods, although A. afarensis, A. africanus and A. garhi may have consumed limited amounts of animal protein as well;
 * Later Australopithecines (A. boisei and robustus) evolved into more specialized "grinding machines" as their jaws became markedly larger, while their brain size did not.

The second new hominid genus that appeared about 2.5 million years ago is the one to which modern humans belong, Homo.
 * A Consideration of brain size relative to body size clearly indicates that Homo habilis had undergone enlargement of the brain far in excess of values predicted on the basis of body size alone. This means that there was a marked advance in information-processing capacity over that of Australopithecines;
 * Although H. habilis had teeth that are large by modern standard, they are smaller in relation to the size of the skull than those of Australopithecines. Major brain-size increase and tooth-size reduction are important trends in the evolution of the genus Homo, but not of Australopithecines;
 * From the standpoint of anatomy alone, it has long been recognized that either A. afarensis or A. africanus constitute a good ancestor for the genus Homo, and it now seems clear that the body of Homo habilis had changed little from that of either species. Precisely which of the two species gave rise to H. habilis is vigorously debated. Whether H. habilis is descended from A. afarensis, A. africanus, both of them, or neither of them, is still a matter of debate. It is also possible that none of the known australopithecines is our ancestor. The discoveries of Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Orrorin tugenensis, and A. anamensis are so recent that it is hard to say what effect they will have on current theories.

What might have caused the branching that founded the new forms of robust australopithecines (Paranthropus) and Homo? What caused the extinction, around the same time (between 2-3 million years ago) of genus Australopithecus? Finally, what might have caused the extinction of Paranthropus about 1 million years ago?

No certainty in answering these questions. But the environmental conditions at the time might hold some clues. Increased environmental variability, starting about 6 million years ago and continuing through time and resulting in a series of newly emerging and diverse habitats, may have initially promoted different adaptations among hominid populations, as seen in the branching that gave rise to the robust hominids and to Homo.

And if the degree of the environmental fluctuations continued to increase, this may have put such pressure on the hominid adaptive responses that those groups less able to cope eventually became extinct. Unable to survive well enough to perpetuate themselves in the face of decreasing resources (e.g., Paranthropus, who were specialized vegetarians) these now-extinct hominids were possibly out-competed for space and resources by the better adapted hominids, a phenomenon known as competitive exclusion.

In this case, only the adaptive response that included an increase in brain size, with its concomitant increase in ability to understand and manipulate the environment, proved successful in the long run.

Hominoid, Hominid, Human
The traditional view has been to recognize three families of hominoid: the Hylobatidae (Asian lesser apes: gibbons and siamangs), the Pongidae, and the Hominidae.
 * The Pongidae include the African great apes, including gorillas, chimpanzees and the Asian orangutans;
 * The Hominidae include living humans and typically fossil apes that possess a suite of characteristics such as bipedalism, reduced canine size, and increasing brain size (e.g., australopithecines).

The emergence of hominoids
Hominoids are Late Miocene (15-5 million years ago) primates that share a small number of postcranial features with living apes and humans:
 * no tail;
 * pelvis lacks bony expansion;
 * elbow similar to that of modern apes;
 * somewhat larger brains in relationship to body size than similarly sized monkeys.

When is a hominoid also a hominid?
When we say that Sahelanthropus tchadensis is the earliest hominid, we mean that it is the oldest fossil that is classified with humans in the family Hominidae. The rationale for including Sahelanthropus tchadensis in the Hominidae is based on similarities in shared derived characters that distinguish humans from other living primates.

There are three categories of traits that separate hominids from contemporary apes:
 * bipedalism;
 * much larger brain in relation to body size;
 * dentition and musculature.

To be classified as a hominid, a Late Miocene primate (hominoid) must display at least some of these characteristics. Sahelanthropus tchadensis is bipedal, and shares many dental features with modern humans. However, the brain of Sahelanthropus tchadensis was no bigger than that of contemporary chimpanzees. As a consequence, this fossil is included in the same family (Hominidae) as modern humans, but not in the same genus.

Traits defining early Homo
Early Homo (e.g., Homo habilis) is distinctly different from any of the earliest hominids, including the australopithecines, and similar to us in the following ways:
 * brain size is substantially bigger than that of any of the earliest hominids, including the australopithecines;
 * teeth are smaller, enamel thinner, and the dental arcade is more parabolic than is found in the earliest hominids, including the australopithecines;
 * skulls are more rounded; the face is smaller and protrudes less, and the jaw muscles are reduced compared with earliest hominids, including the australopithecines.

8th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea

The 8th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea was held at the April 25 House of Culture in Pyongyang from 5 to 12 January 2021. A total of 7,000 people participated in the congress including 5,000 delegates. The Party Congress took place in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic where no cases were reported.

Preparations
Hints of an upcoming 8th WPK Congress first emerged during the 13th Political Bureau meeting of the 7th WPK Central Committee held on 7 June 2020. The meeting mentioned a drafting of an amendment of the WPK Charter, which can only be approved through either a party congress or a party conference.

The congress was announced through a decision issued at the 6th plenary meeting of the 7th WPK Central Committee on 19 August 2020. Among the congress agendas are the review of the work of the WPK Central Committee, the review of the work of the Central Auditing Commission, the revision of the WPK Charter and the election of the central leadership organ.

WPK Chairman Kim Jong Un also revealed during the plenary meeting that a new five-year economic development plan is going to be presented at the congress after mentioning that the current five-year economic development plan has fallen far short of its objectives.

Ahead of the party congress, an 80-day mass mobilization campaign was announced at the 19th Political Bureau meeting of the 7th WPK Central Committee on 5 October 2020. The campaign took place from 12 October until 30 December 2020.

On 29 November 2020, the 21st enlarged Political Bureau meeting of the 7th WPK Central Committee was held which discussed preparatory work for the party congress, which included the preparations for the election of delegates to the party congress, the documents for the party congress and the political and cultural events to be held during the party congress. According to analysts, there will likely be a military and civilian parade sometime during the congress.

The Political Bureau of the 7th WPK Central Committee decided during its 22nd meeting on 29 December 2020 that the party congress is to be convened in early January 2021. A separate report from the Korean Central News Agency on 30 December confirmed that the party congress is to be held in Pyongyang.

Delegates
Delegates to the 8th WPK Congress were elected in conferences of provincial party committees and other party organizations in December 2020. They were elected on the basis of one delegate with voting rights for every 1,300 party members and one delegate with speaking rights for every 1,300 candidate party members. Elected party congress delegates arrived in Pyongyang in late December 2020.

The qualifications of party congress delegates were evaluated and approved by the 22nd Political Bureau meeting of the 7th WPK Central Committee on 29 December 2020. The meeting also decided on the members of the party congress' presidium, platform members and secretariat.

A ceremony for awarding certificates to party congress delegates was held on 30 December 2020. Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il were posthumously declared to be delegates to the party congress.

There was a total of 5,000 delegates to the 8th WPK Congress. Of the 5,000 delegates, 250 were members of the 7th WPK Central Committee and 4,750 delegates were elected by party conferences to represent an estimated 6,175,000 party members and candidate members. 501 delegates were women, which is an increase of 186 from the 315 women delegates in the 7th Congress. There were also 2,000 observers, which is an increase of 613 from 1,387 observers in the 7th Congress.

Korean Social Democratic Party chairman Pak Yong-il, Chondoist Chongu Party chairman Ri Myong-chol, and Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front Pyongyang mission chief Pak Su-chol were invited to attend the congress.

The following delegates were elected as members of the party congress' presidium:

Kim Jong Un, Choe Ryong-hae, Ri Pyong-chol, Kim Tok-hun, Pak Pong-ju, Pak Jong-chon, Kim Jae-ryong, Ri Il-hwan, Choe Hwi, Pak Thae-dok, Kim Yong-chol, Choe Pu-il, Kim Su-gil, Thae Hyong-chol, O Su-yong, Kim Hyong-jun, Ho Chol-man, Pak Myong-sun, Jo Yong-won, Kim Yo-jong, Pak Jong-nam, Yang Sung-ho, Ri Ju-o, Tong Jong-ho, Ko In-ho, Kim Hyong-sik, Choe Sang-gon, O Il-jong, Kim Yong-su, Ri Sang-won, Ri Yong-gil, Kim Myong-gil, Kang Yun-sok

The following delegates were elected as members of the party congress' secretariat:

Sin Ryong Man, Ham Ryong Chol, So Kyong Nam, Kim Pong Chol, Kang Jong Gwan, Kim Jong Min, Ri Hyong Jin

Agenda of the Congress
The general agenda for the 8th Party Congress were as follows:
 * Review on the activities of the outgoing 7th Central Committee
 * Review on the activities of the 7th Central Auditing Commission
 * Amendments to the Rules
 * Election of Kim Jong Un as leader of the Party in the title of General Secretary
 * Election of the incoming 8th Central Committee and the party departments under the CC

Talk:Strongyloides stercoralis

Testing
Question......Can someone test positive for Strongyloides Stercoralis and actually have a different parasitic infection and NOT Strongyloides afterall?
 * It is perfectly possible for someone to have strongyloides as well as another parasitic disease. Is it possible for someone to not have strongloides and yet have a positive test?  It depends on the test: if the test in question was examination of a stool or sputum specimen, then I would say no.  If the test was serology (a blood test) then the answer is yes: you could have had strongyloides and then been treated for it: the blood test would remain positive for months if not years afterwards--Gak 10:44, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Strongyloidiasis
This article should be merged with strongyloidiasis--Gak 10:44, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Detection of parasite

 * Yes, the ELISA worm antibody test. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 14:27, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

NHS Article
Out of interest, the NHS reference NHS Direct Health encyclopaedia - Threadworms does not discuss a Strongyloides. It does however discuss Enterobius vermicularis, which is quite different (and more widespread) than Strongyloides. As such, the redirect "Threadworm" should probably not come here. Shot info (talk) 01:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Threadworm now redirects to Pinworm, which is the worm in the NHS Direct article. --Maltelauridsbrigge (talk) 11:51, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

 * To clarify some of this confusion, there is a difference in US vs. UK usage (this is according to Village Medical Manual by Mary Vanderkooi, 5th ed., 2000).
 * pinworm in the US is enterobius
 * pinworm in the UK is strongyloides
 * threadworm in the US is strongyloides
 * threadworm in the UK, I have not heard of aside from the above-cited article, which evidently equates it with enterobius
 * In other words, pinworm and threadworm have swapped meanings across the pond. :)

Content to be moved to the article on the disease
Graham87 has deleted the following content from this page, see below - but it should not be deleted but moved to the page on the disease: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strongyloidiasis

Also, there is still a lot more that should be moved, i.e. the parts on diagnosis and treatment?

Complete eradication must be attained to prevent dangerous illness. This requires daily ivermectin 200-400 micrograms / kg, combined with Albendazol, for 14 days. With short treatments such as currently recommended, infections are not likely to be fully cured.

Serology follow-up is necessary
−	Regular serology monitoring must be provided. Stool samples are not reliable for follow-up. Of the available serology tests, IVD-ELISA and IFAT had the best performance according to study. −		 −

National treatment strategies are needed
−	It is a public safety concern that such follow-up be made available to the public without cost. A concerted national and international effort is needed. This need is recognized by the WHO. −		 −

Transmission
−		 −	Transmission has been documented through contact with saliva such as kissing. −		 −	Transmission through breast milk has been documented in animals and is probable in humans −		 −	More information is needed about transmission through skin contact, clothes and home surfaces. Information is also needed concerning effective disinfectants. −		 −	Family members should be routinely treated, if one family member is or is thought to be infected. Proof is difficult to obtain as in 70 percent of cases, a single stool sample is falsely negative. It is important to treat family members empirically even without proof of infection. They may not have the same symptoms. In the case study, an infected spouse suffered from symptoms such as insomnia, tinnitus and depression.

Talk:Climate Change

I would strongly suggest that this entire wikibook be deleted as a "wikibook" and it become a subchapter of a parental topic such as atmospheric science, meteorology, and climatology. It should also be written from the point of neutrality - which I would suggest means that as long as their is a controversial discussion about "climate change" that it not be represented from a single point of view (i.e. man-made, and/or natural).

Per the person who made this statement - "the vast majority of the scientific community now believe that we must cut our emissions or else face some truly terrible consequences." You should perhaps read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milankovitch_cycles.

Hmmm... I have to say this book is attracting more interest from Climate Change cynics than I had suspected. My own understanding of the situation is that - yes - the scientific community was unsure of the causal link between man-made pollution and climate change. But things have moved on significantly in the past few years and it's now almost certain that humans are responsible for the recent increases in temperatures that we have witnessed.

For example: http://www.nature.com/news/2005/050131/full/050131-14.html

For those of you with access to the academic literature, I urge you to run some searches on "climate change". The vast majority of the scientific community now believe that we must cut our emissions or else face some truly terrible consequences. People (not to mention countless animals and plants) are already dying because of our actions. Please look at the up to date facts before posting any cynical content on this book.

You need to understand academic literature and research before you can properly judge this. Consider three equally prominent (or obscure) researchers with equally sound (or unsound) science. One researcher says that we are causing our doom by our actions, one says that we are doomed no matter what, and one says that everything will be OK. Which of the three will get funding?

Going against the flow of money is a dumb career move, at least in the short term. Consider the cases of stomach ulcers (caused by bacteria) and cancer growths (which emit chemicals that cause blood vessel growth). Money went to the researchers denouncing these now-proven theories. In the field of computer science, from about 1985 to 1995 all OS researchers had to accept the idea that microkernels were superior. Those who pointed out the idiocy of microkernels were denied funding. Linus Torvalds, lead developer for Linux, was even taunted/confronted/teased/insulted by one of the big-name OS researchers for going against the fad... yet today we see that Linux is a solid high-performing OS while not even one true microkernel (no, MacOS X only pays it lip service) is into the big leagues. That big-name OS researcher had a profitable textbook to promote; you can see the bias if you follow the money. For many, tenure is at stake, and so they must support those who will be voting to grant tenure or not.

Climate change research is certainly not immune to these political problems. Researchers must defend themselves and their profitable theories. It's all "gloom and doom, but send more money and maybe we can figure something out or see how bad it is".

I have just contributed some words on anthropogenic climate change. Although this is not my field, I don't want to see it parched and lifeless, if I may be allowed to freely mix metaphors:-)

My comment on Pascal's wager may be of interest regarding the arguments for and against the validity of climate change evidence.

When we refer to 'emissions' we may need to distinguish between the different sorts of emissions: carbon dioxide contributes around 20% of the total greenhouse effect and methane, nitrous oxide and a number of other gases contribute another 20%. Keith Thomas 12:00am GMT 14 February 2005

Sources from wikipedia
(William M. Connolley 23:09, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)) There are lots of source pages within wikipedia for content here: the most obvious are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/global_warming, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_temperature_record, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attribution_of_recent_climate_change and links therein.

 * (William M. Connolley 21:42, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)) Hmmm... well, the wikipedia climate change pages are fairly mature. I can't quite see the point in fighting the same old wars over here.

some scientifically oriented content
I've been editing this page a bit. I'm trying to insert some sound science into the description of climate change. I think the organization of the page needs some work too, and if I have a chance I'll try to arrange things in a little more coherent order. Skymath 07:52, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Great Global Warming Swindle
A programme by the same name as this was screened in the UK in March 2007. It caused great debate because it provided a number of reasonably highly profiled academics who repudiated many of the claims of the climate change scientists. Upon closer scrutiny, however, and after watching the online debate, it would seem that the contrarian view (one often taken by this particular documentary film maker) was somewhat misinformed and misrepresented some of the facts. This massaging was sufficient to call into doubt the integrity of the programme. Others discontent with the programme, in various discussion venues on the internet cited a webpage called exxonsecrets.com which indicated cash flows from Exxon, to key government departments and research individuals, who presumably have been on the payroll to promote a degree of disinformation. It would seem that the only thing absolutely certain about climate change is that it produces spin.

 * I think that climate changes is evident, even to the proverbial blind person. The reason can be varied but thinking that humans have no impact is the same as stating that acid rain never existed, that we are not about to reach the planet record population of 9 billions (and all the related implications) and the it is becoming increasingly rare to find an ecosystem without stress due to human actions.
 * The issue is that there are geopolitic interests behind the disinformation. Coal producers for instance, and at the other end of the spectrum solar cell producers or heolic turbine manufactures. This of course in due to economic motives and in great part of the world, economics dictates policies and shapes the future. For me some of the greatest errors coming from this are the "fake solutions" like carbon trading or similar concepts, like most of the carbon capturing proposal, all these invested interests are creating a general mess on the ability to scientifically address the issues so we can at least stabilize the situation.   --Panic (talk) 21:43, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

GLOBAL DIMMING
The article fails to mention anything about global dimming. This effect, under it's current understanding, is a very large factor in the progress of the climate. Someone should add it in. LealandA (talk) 13:09, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Kavin Raj

Kavin Raj is an Indian actor who predominantly works in Tamil cinema. He made a transition from the small screen to the silver screen. In the beginning of his career, he made a name for himself by playing the character Vettaiyan, a villain turned into a hero in the television series Saravanan Meenatchi. In 2019, Kavin was a contestant on Bigg Boss (Season 3). He got his breakthrough with the lead role in successful movies such as Lift (2021) and Dada (2023).

Career
While completing his education at Loyola College, Kavin attended auditions with Star Vijay. His first appearance in television serials was through the college version of Kana Kaanum Kaalangal, where he appeared as a student. He continued working on Star Vijay, appearing in supporting roles in the serials Thayumanavan and in the 1st season of Saravanan Meenatchi. In the second season of Saravanan Meenatchi, Kavin was initially given an antagonist role but, during the course of the show, his character of Vettaiyan went through a character arc and became the main lead. He won positive critical acclaim for his performance and won the Vijay Television Awards for Favourite Actor Male for 2015. After the end of season 2, Kavin opted not to act in any more television serials and stated his intentions of breaking into the Tamil film industry.

Kavin played a supporting role in S. R. Prabhakaran's Sathriyan (2017) and the lead role in Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma (2019) during late 2016. Prior to these films, he appeared in small, insignificant roles in Karthik Subbaraj's Pizza (2012) and Ravikumar's Indru Netru Naalai (2015). Sathriyan, featuring Vikram Prabhu and Manjima Mohan, eventually opened to mixed reviews and Kavin's role as a doctor opposite Aishwarya Dutta in the film also was met with a mixed response. Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma saw him associate with director Shiva Aravind, whom he became acquainted with during his stint with Star Vijay. They developed the script together. In the film, he played a man whose life changes after meeting the film's main character, played by Remya Nambeesan. The film went through several delays as the producer was keen to have a wide release across Tamil Nadu. The film was ultimately released in 2019 to mixed reviews.

Kavin became known because of his participation in the third season of Bigg Boss Tamil, after which he was cast as the lead actor in Lift, directed by Vineeth Varaprasad and released on OTT which is opened to positive response. He worked as an assistant director in Doctor (2021). His romantic web series titled Akash Vaani released on February 11, 2022. He went to star in critically acclaimed and commercially successful movie Dada. In 2024, his movie Star was released to positive to mixed reviews.

Conlang/Intermediate/Grammar

It's all very well having a conlang full of cool sounding words, but if you don't know how your conlang uses those words to form sentences then you won't be able to express even a concept as simple as "The boy bounced the ball". This is what grammar is for.

As we noted earlier, there are two main types of grammar:
 * Morphology, how words change their forms in different contexts and uses.
 * Syntax, how the arrangement of words in sentences indicates meaning.

Both of these processes are very important for the grammar of your conlang. In this section we will learn more about how to create a good grammar.

Morphology and Syntax
In the Beginner Grammar section we learned about the terms Morphology and Syntax and talked a little about what they mean, but we didn't really go into much depth. Let's do that now.

Linguists traditionally divide a language's grammar up into two sub-disciplines called Morphology and Syntax. Morphology deals with the way in which parts of words, typically called morphemes, or stems and affixes, can be put together to make new words with new meanings. Syntax, on the other hand, deals with the way groups of words, called phrases or clauses, can be rearranged within a sentence to make a new sentence with a new meaning. The important distinction here is that morphology happens inside words (using word-parts), while syntax happens outside words (using word-groups).

Sometimes it's hard to draw the line between these two sub-disciplines. In Mandarin (a language spoken in China), for example, the word "to eat" is 吃 chi1, like in 吃面 chi1mian4 "to eat noodles". However, 吃 chi1 is not used alone, so "to eat" without any object is translated 吃饭 chi1fan4 (literally, "to eat rice"). It's hard to tell whether 吃面 chi1mian4 and 吃饭 chi1fan4 are phrases with a word 吃 chi1 or new words with a root 吃 chi1.

To be useful, a language's grammar has to be able to express all the kinds of things that a speaker of that language might want to say. Whether the grammar uses syntax or morphology to express these concepts depends on the language. Languages can be categorised by whether they use more syntax, called analytic, or more morphology, called synthetic; for example, English has more syntax so it is relatively analytic, whereas Ojibwe (a North-American indigenous language) has more morphology so it is synthetic.

Languages way over to the analytic end of the spectrum are called isolating; in a purely isolating language, words wouldn't change form at all. (A relatively well-known isolating natlang is Yoruba; a well-known isolating conlang is .) Languages way over to the synthetic end of the spectrum are called polysynthetic; in a polysynthetic language, a whole sentence can be a single word. We'll discuss polysynthetic languages at the Advanced level.

Two other terms you may hear for types of languages: agglutinative and fusional, describing synthetic languages on a spectrum according to how the morphology changes words. An agglutinative language builds complex words by just stringing together lots of pieces each of which means just one thing; the modern German language has some agglutination, giving it a reputation for mouth-filling compounds. (The University of Hamburg —who could in principle have called their law faculty the Recht Fakultät, "law faculty"— for whatever reason chose instead Rechtswissenschaftliche Fakultät, "law-scholarship-ish faculty".) A fusional language builds complex words by putting together pieces that can mean combinations of things. Latin is a fusional language, with suffixes for things like third person plural present active indicative. The concept of morphemes also works especially well toward the agglutinative end of things, less so toward the fusional.

What's in this section?
The parts of this section are:
 * Forms: The different ways in which languages can express distinctions.
 * Nouns: Inflecting nouns.
 * Verbs: Verbs and how you use them to build sentences.
 * Adjectives & Adverbs: Creating more nuanced meanings.
 * Derivation: Turning one kind of word into another.
 * Clauses: Building more complex sentences.

George II, Duke of Saxe-Meiningen

George II, Duke of Saxe-Meiningen (2 April 1826 – 25 June 1914), was the penultimate Duke of Saxe-Meiningen, reigning from 1866 to 1914. For his support for his successful court theatre he was also known as the Theaterherzog (theatre duke).

Family and early life
George was the only son of Bernhard II, Duke of Saxe-Meiningen and his wife Princess Marie Frederica of Hesse-Kassel. His birth on 2 April 1826 was met with great relief as the succession to the duchy was in jeopardy due to a lack of male heirs in the family. George remained an only child for seventeen years, until the birth of his sister Princess Augusta in 1843.

George spent his first few years under the supervision of his parents and grandmother the Dowager Duchess Luise Eleonore. It was the latter who instilled upon Georg the patriotic virtues of his heritage, as well as the sense of duty needed to rule a duchy.

In 1862, his only sister married Prince Moritz of Saxe-Altenburg, a younger son of Georg, Duke of Saxe-Altenburg. They would be the parents of Ernst II, Duke of Saxe-Altenburg, the last reigning Duke of Saxe-Altenburg.

Duke of Saxe-Meiningen
George succeeded his father as Duke of Saxe-Meiningen on 20 September 1866, when Bernhard was forced to abdicate in favor of his son following the defeat of Austria in the Austro-Prussian War. In opposition to his father, George had sided with the Prussians during the war and was rewarded with a position of Lieutenant General of the Prussian army. The young duke was familiar enough with Prussian politics to regard their attitudes as impractical. During the Franco-Prussian War, George led two regiments of soldiers from Meiningen and had the honor of capturing the first French flags at the Battle of Froeschweiler. Notably, he fought in nearly every battle during the war. Georg was a member of Wilhelm I's staff when he entered Paris and remained a friend of the Emperor until the latter's death in 1888.

First

George was married firstly in Charlottenburg on 18 May 1850 to the Princess Charlotte of Prussia. She was the eldest daughter of Prince Albert of Prussia and Princess Marianne of the Netherlands, and was a granddaughter of both Frederick William III of Prussia and William I of the Netherlands.

They had four children:
 * Bernhard III, Duke of Saxe-Meiningen (1 April 1851 – 16 January 1928). he married Princess Charlotte of Prussia on 18 February 1878. They had one daughter, Princess Feodora of Saxe-Meiningen.
 * Prince Georg Albrecht (12 April 1852 – 27 January 1855). died at two years old.
 * Princess Marie Elisabeth of Saxe-Meiningen (23 September 1853 – 22 February 1923).
 * unnamed son (29 – 30 March 1855). died at a day old.

Although couple had a short engagement, it was a love match. Among the wedding gifts was an opulent old villa on Lake Como from her mother Marianne. It was renamed the Villa Carlotta in the bride's honor. They spent the next five years in Berlin and Potsdam but returned to Meiningen for the birth of their children.

On 27 January 1855, their second son Georg died. Charlotte would follow him two months later, dying in childbirth and leaving George inconsolable. He succeeded his father as Duke of Saxe-Meiningen in 1866, eleven years after Charlotte's death.

Second

Despite his recent widowhood, George went on a search for a new wife, if only to provide a mother for his two young children. George met his second cousin Princess Feodora of Hohenlohe-Langenburg while he was on his way to Italy; they became engaged almost at once. She was a niece of Queen Victoria, being a daughter of Victoria's half-sister Princess Feodora of Leiningen and her husband Ernst I, Prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg. On 23 October 1858, they married at Langenburg.

George and Feodora had three sons:

 * Prince Ernst Bernhard of Saxe-Meiningen (27 September 1859 – 29 December 1941) he married Katharina Jensen on 20 September 1892. They have six children.
 * Prince Frederick Johann of Saxe-Meiningen (12 October 1861 – 23 August 1914) he married Countess Adelaide of Lippe-Biesterfeld on 24 April 1889. They have six children.
 * Prince Viktor of Saxe-Meiningen (14 – 17 May 1865).

Their marriage was unhappy however. George had never become reconciled to Charlotte's death and Feodora was not temperamentally suited for the life she was expected to lead. She had no intellectual or artistic attainments; even worse, she had no interest in developing any. Despite this fact, George attempted to educate her, as he was a great lover of the arts, especially theater. Her mother approved, stating it was "very sensible of him indeed to arrange for his bride to be much occupied with lessons, to take drawing lessons, and to hear lectures on history". Georg soon realized however that she would never be as witty and clever as Charlotte. After the death of their third son, Feodora stayed away from Meiningen for as much as decently possible. In 1866, he succeeded as Duke of Saxe-Meiningen, making her "Duchess consort of Saxe-Meiningen".

Feodora contracted scarlet fever in January 1872, and died the following month. Despite the many differences between them, George had remained fond of her; when she became sick, he was genuinely distraught and sent telegrams to her parents twice daily.

Third
He was married thirdly and unequally in Liebenstein on 18 March 1873 to Ellen Franz, a former actress. She was given her own style, being known as Helene, "Baroness von Holdburg" shortly before their wedding and after their marriage.

This marriage was morganatic, and greatly angered Kaiser Wilhelm. George in turn became increasingly angry and defensive at anyone who failed to recognize his wife and treat her as an equal. Most Germans supported George's decision to marry, but Wilhelm felt particularly upset because George's first wife had been a kinswoman of his. Wilhelm was not the only one who objected to the marriage; George's father ex-Duke Bernhard was equally angry and threatened to appeal directly to the people with the mistaken view that they would support his opinion. Officials and ministers of the Saxe-Meiningen court also objected to the match. Many resigned their offices and their wives openly insulted Ellen. The army also refused to salute her, further angering Duke George. He sent an emissary to Berlin with a complaint to Wilhelm, who responded by ordering that all officers must in the future salute Ellen as Baroness von Heldburg. She was never styled as "Duchess of Saxe-Meiningen" like his second wife.

The couple had no children. Well loved by the people, she and Duke George created and developed the progressive Meiningen Theater.

Meiningen Ensemble
After the Franco-Prussian War, George devoted himself to theatre. He was one of the greatest intellectuals among the higher nobility during the German Empire. He is particularly known for developing the Meiningen Ensemble using his court theatre. Using his knowledge of art history and his drawing skills, he designed highly detailed, historically accurate scenery, costumes, and properties. In addition, he choreographed large crowd scenes that stunned audiences across Europe. He and his ensemble toured Europe extensively, and had a profound effect on theatre production across the continent. There is no doubt that Realism saw the development of the director as a separate entity, someone with an eye to oversee, someone responsible for the overall conception, interpretation, style and detail of the theatrical performance. The Meiningen Ensemble from its roots in the late 1830s under the directorships of Georg II and Ludwig Chronegk, proceeded to develop a theatre company bereft of theatre-managers and the star system. A system centered on realistic acting and staging and well-developed 'unified' productions. The Ensemble which began as a court theatre but started touring in 1874, used detailed research of people, locations, costumes and set, along with highly choreographed and individually detailed crowd scenes, to create productions which were esthetically unified and realistic in their presentations. In an article for the Deutsche Bühne, the Duke outlined his principles for directing a play, the most important were the creation of a Stage Picture (the pictorial effect created by the synthesis of the actors with the set and props), historical exactitude in the mise en scene, an acting style which used Precise Gestural and Vocal Imitation, the use of Period or Authentic Clothing and Costumes and the use of Group Orchestration by precise planning and direction of all group and crowd scenes

The initial aim of the Meiningen Ensemble was to create, within the context of an ensemble, historical exactitude of the mise en scene. The Meiningen company sought to create the illusion of natural space within the confines of the proscenium arch. Duke George was concerned mainly with creating a naturalistic illusory atmosphere where the actor could establish or re-create authenticity in performance. Chronegk and the Duke prepared sketches and diagrams showing actors how to walk and move in period clothing to achieve a naturalistic feel to stage characterization. The Meiningen productions influenced playwrights like Henrik Ibsen, actors like Henry Irving and directors like Antoine and Stanislavsky.

The conventions of realism for the Meiningen seemed to create the means by which a theatre artist creates the illusion of everyday life. They saw that art should copy science by depicting life 'as it is' without direct comment, interpretation and the structural edifice of the well made play. The Duke believed that a lifelike reality was achieved on stage through a careful study of the play and showing this in stage movement, composition and stage business. His major contribution to the stage was not just his use of realistic settings and costumes but in the way he tried to use and integrate performers as part of the mise en scene. The use of costume did not merely reflect historical accuracy but attempted to help actors perform in a style and mode which integrated with other elements. He demanded that all the actors were at most rehearsals and he carefully worked out the actions of even everyone in crowd scenes. Individual members of crowds and main actors alike were expected to provide specific research and character analysis related to the events depicted on stage. He was known for his great vision and memory and he often worked without a prompt book or script, working from his head and using a runner to ferry his ideas to his assistant Chronegk. Because his work toured extensively from 1874 to 1890, Meiningen's unified productions had a great impact on the theatre world. He is widely considered the theatre's first Modern director.

Meiningen Court Orchestra
The Duke was also the patron of one of Europe's leading orchestras, the Meiningen Court Orchestra. The orchestra attained its distinction after the Duke hired the conductor Hans von Bülow in 1880. Bülow instituted stringent rehearsal methods and, with the Duke's agreement, hired eight musicians, raising its membership to 44. He offered the orchestra as a trial ensemble to Johannes Brahms, who was to try out his Second Piano Concerto and Third Symphony with the orchestra and premiered his Fourth Symphony there, conducting it himself. A dispute with Brahms over who was to conduct the premiere of his Fourth Symphony in Frankfurt led Bülow to resign (he was scheduled to premiere it there, but Brahms pre-empted him by conducting it with a local orchestra). Bülow was succeeded briefly by his 20-year-old assistant Richard Strauss, who resigned after a month, and then by Fritz Steinbach. Steinbach championed the music of Brahms, instituting Brahms Festivals in 1895 and 1897 in Meiningen with the composer present. A private concert by the Meiningen Court Orchestra and Steinbach for Brahms in 1891 led the composer to notice the artistry of the ensemble's first clarinetist, Richard Mühlfeld; Brahms promised to compose music for Mühlfeld, and did indeed compose his Clarinet Trio, Clarinet Quintet, and two Clarinet Sonatas. In 1897 the Duke undertook the construction of a Brahms monument in Meiningen's English gardens, sculpted by Adolf von Hildebrand.

Later life
In his later life, George suffered from acute deafness and retired from active life. He had been fond of hunting and traveling, and was a collector of antiques and manuscripts. He died on 25 June 1914 at Bad Wildungen and was succeeded by his eldest son Bernhard.

George is buried at , next to his third wife.

Typesetting TV is a web-based documentary video series that explores the relationship between designers, their work, and the cities in which they live. The series was conceived, planned, and shot between October, 2011 and January, 2012 by graphic designers Donovan Brien & Mat Budelman. Typesetting.tv was launched to offer the first—"pilot"—season for free viewing.

Season 1—currently in progress—covers six designers across six different countries and showcases six unique cities.

Vienna, Austria - Elisabeth Kopf
Season 1, Episode 1 of typesetting, brings the viewer to the office of Elisabeth Kopf named, Buero Baustelle.

"There are few designers with a more unique story than Austrian designer Elisabeth Kopf. From working as a taxi driver in Vienna, to becoming a self taught photographer in Hong Kong, her path towards design could hardly be called traditional. However, after the birth of her son Luc, her natural talent in the field of graphic design was brought to life. What followed was an explosion of originality—and a completely new take on graphic design."

Berlin, Germany - BASICS09
Season 1, Episode 2 of typesetting, brings the viewer to the office of Elisabeth Kopf named, Buero Baustelle.

Hirsi Bulhan Farah

Hirsi Bulhan Farah is a Somali politician, former political prisoner, former minister of Somalia, member of parliament in two different terms (the civilian government and the transitional federal government), interim chairman of the Somali parliament, activist, entrepreneur and greatly respected and knowledgeable elder.

History of his parents
Born in the town of Eyl, an ancient town located in northeastern Somalia (Puntland) to two prominent parents Bulhan and Dhuuxay. He was one of many kids. Hirsi's father Bulhan was a wealthy man with hundreds of camels and other livestock to his name. Bulhan was a protrusive general and a well-known sharpshooter in northern Somalia. He was the main general (abaandule) of Sultan Mohamoud Ali Shire and his Warsangeli Sultanate army. After some quarrel and an assassination attempt by members of the Warsangeli clan, Bulhan left and became the commanding general of Boqor Osman Mahamuud who was the ruler of the Majerteen Sultanate. During his years as commander of the Warsangeli army, Bulhan married a prominent woman of Sultan Mohamoud Ali Shire's family who later was murdered. They had a daughter together named Faduma Bulhan. After leaving Sanaag he married Dhuuxay (Hirsi's mother) and another woman named Hawo, after some time he married what would be his fourth wife. All in all, Bulhan had 16 children in total. During Bulhan's military campaigns against Sayyid Mohammed Abdullah Hassan he bravely fought the Dervish movement who had killed his father Guune years prior, when he was still a child. Guune (Hirsi's grandfather), was also a commander in his own right. He was fighting the Sayyid and was ultimately killed by the Dervish movement, in the Sool region of northwestern Somalia.

Bulhan's objective was to avenge his father's death by killing Mohammed Abdullah Hassan himself, he never fulfilled his goal as a result of him having to leave the front-line as a consequence of him being critically wounded during the fighting. Time went by and he healed from his injuries. Being a man of immense faith he decided to fulfill one of the five pillars of Islam so he subsequently embarked on a journey to perform the yearly pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj). Hirsi was four years old when his father embarked upon the Hajj journey, a trip that would be the last time he ever saw his father again. After completing the Hajj pilgrimage Bulhan and his clansmen traveled to Medina. During their stay in Medina on a day after the noon (Zuhr) prayer, an unknown man dressed in white came to the tent of Bulhan and his clansmen. The unknown man asked the group, that were on their way back home to Somalia, which one of them was going to stay and leave the rest of the group behind. The group was astonished by the question and kept silent except Bulhan who insisted that he was going to stay. None of them had intended to stay because of the many responsibilities and families that awaited them back home. The clansmen thought Bulhan had gone mad and they tried their best to persuade him to change his mind and follow them back home to Somalia. They tried without success, and after a while, the group went to rest in waiting of the afternoon (Asr) prayer. Bulhan never woke up from his rest and was shortly after buried in Medina.

Early life and political career
Hirsi had a tough but loving upbringing and spent the first years of his life in a nomadic type of lifestyle; he matured at an early age and left home at age eleven. He left Eyl for the city of Qardho where he became an entrepreneur. During that time of his preadolescence, he and his friends plotted coup d'etat attempts against the Italian colonial administration. He became Minister of Livestock in the civilian government of the 1960s. He became Director of the Department of Plant Protection and Locust Control, in the Ministry of Agriculture in Mogadishu. He was also the chief executive officer of the largest banana exporting company in Somalia during the 1970s. During the Mohamed Siad Barre regime, Bulhan was imprisoned for nine years due to his overt resistance against the regime.

A couple of days before Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke's assassination in the city of Las Anod, he had requested multiple times that Bulhan accompany him on the trip to the northwestern town. Unfortunately, due to different circumstances, Bulhan could not make the trip to Las Anod where president Sharmarke was assassinated by his own bodyguard. Directly after the assassination of Sharmarke, Somalia's second president, on October 15, 1969, Bulhan and the other Ministers of the civilian government were rounded up and imprisoned. Sharmarke's assassination was quickly followed by a military coup d'état on October 21, 1969 (the day after his funeral). In which the Somali Army seized power without encountering armed opposition — essentially a bloodless takeover. The putsch was spearheaded by Major general Mohamed Siad Barre, who at the time commanded the army.

Somali Salvation Democratic Front
These events led Bulhan to join the Somali Salvation Democratic Front (SSDF), the first resistance group against the authoritarian regime of Mohamed Siad Barre. Bulhan joined (and financially supported) the organization after his release from imprisonment. The Somali Salvation Democratic Front was founded by several army officers. It was a political and paramilitary umbrella organization, with its power base mainly in the Majeerteen clan. Bulhan immediately got a high ranking position due to his previous experience as a politician and his reputation, being a man of great respect.

Some of the group's prominent founders were Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, Somalia's former military attaché to Moscow, and Abdullahi Ahmed Irro, a prominent general and founder of the National Academy for Strategy. Abdullahi Yusuf eventually became President of Somalia in 2004 and was the first elected president of Puntland, an autonomous state of northern Somalia, in July 1998. Irro later served as a Professor of Strategy at various Somali military institutes in the 1980s. He had a hand in formulating strategic training syllabi for senior military personnel, the presidential advisory councils, and legislators. He also played a leading role in forging working partnerships with several schools in Egypt, France, and the United States. Both men were cherished colleagues of Hirsi Bulhan Farah.

Post-civil war
After the Somali Transitional Federal Parliament was inaugurated in Nairobi, in 2004 the former minister was elected as interim chairman.

Bulhan produced 10 children with his wife, Asli Osman Haji Djibril. One died at a young age and they currently have nine children together. He has one child with his second wife, Hali Haji Ahmed Farajar.

Bulhan currently lives in Stockholm, Sweden and in Somalia. He participates in efforts to further stabilize and create a peaceful society in Somalia. He occasionally interviews with various Somali media outlets.

FitSM

FitSM is the name for a family of standards for lightweight IT service management (ITSM).

Overview and parts

FitSM calls itself a standard, but is not published or managed by an established standards organisation like ISO. However, in a way very similar to that of many ISO and ISO/IEC standard families, it structures its documents into several numbered parts and defines requirements for an effective service management system in its part 1.

All parts are published under Creative Common licenses.

FitSM-0: Overview and vocabulary
A single document containing about 70 definitions of ITSM terms.

FitSM-1: Requirements
A single document containing about 85 auditable requirements for an effective service management system. The requirements are divided into general requirements (GR) and requirements for 14 different service management processes (PR). FitSM is similar in scope and style to part 1 of ISO/IEC 20000, but significantly shorter.

FitSM-2: Objectives and activities
A single document containing a description of the goal of each process defined in FitSM-1, as well as a description of activities to initially set up the process and ongoing process activities.

FitSM-3: Role model
A single document containing descriptions of generic service management system and service management process roles.

FitSM-4: Templates and samples
A collection of templates and samples for documents needed in a service management system, e.g. SLAs, statement of a service management policy, elements of a service portfolio or service catalogue etc.

FitSM-5: Guides
A collection of guides on various ITSM topics.

FitSM-6: Maturity assessment
An Excel-based tool that uses situation descriptions to aid an easy assessment of the maturity of implemented service management processes and general practices.

Certification and qualification scheme
While conformance to FitSM-1 requirements can be audited, there is no certification for conformance. Unlike for ISO/IEC 20000, organizations cannot have their service management system 'FitSM certified'.

A qualification and certification scheme for personnel, much like those established for ITIL and ISO/IEC 20000, but involving fewer and shorter trainings, was started in 2013.

Origin
FitSM is based on deliverables of FedSM, a project funded in the 7th Framework Program for Research and Technological Development by the European Union. The original aim of FedSM was to "increase maturity and effectiveness of Service Management in federated e-Infrastructures by applying suitable good practices."

How to establish management processes across federated organizational structures is not considered in traditional ITSM frameworks, and can pose a difficult task when trying to introduce ITSM in E-infrastructures which often distribute the provisioning of services among a federation of peer organizations. However, a much larger challenge to introducing ITSM at FedSM's client organizations turned out be the adaptation of the very comprehensive ITSM guidance described by traditional ITSM frameworks to a set of practices that could realistically be implemented in relatively small organizations within the project lifetime of three years. From May 2013, to foster the beginning interest in FedSM's "lightweight" ITSM guidance by IT organizations from outside the e-Infrastructure community, the project consortium started publishing revised versions project deliverables under the FitSM name.

The team members have announced on their project website that the FitSM standard will continue to be maintained in the future within the framework of a working group of IT Education Management Organisation ITEMO.

Moccasin, California

Moccasin, an unincorporated community in Tuolumne County, California, is located at the intersection of State Route 49 and State Route 120. The community is sited on the shore of Moccasin Reservoir at the edge of Lake Don Pedro. The town is home to a State of California Resources Agency, Department of Fish and Game fish hatchery.

A fire July 3, 2006, burned 1998 acre near Moccasin Powerhouse according to the California Department of Forestry. The three million dollar fire involved 40 engines, 4 helicopters, and 9 bulldozers.

Hetch Hetchy Relationship
A company town, Moccasin is almost entirely owned by the City and County of San Francisco. Homes are used for employees who work on the Hetch Hetchy Water & Power system. Most buildings are painted the same color and homes in the community look similar as a result. There are no stores or gas stations.

Construction on the original Moccasin Powerhouse, designed by San Francisco architect Henry A. Minton, was started in Fall 1921. The facility was completed and began generating power on August 14, 1925. Paul James Ost was the electrical engineer put in charge of power operations and electrical engineering phases of the Hetch Hetchy project. "'Paul assembled the Moccasin Powerhouse. He went back east to gather all the parts from multiple companies including Westinghouse and General Electric and personally directed the construction of the electrical sections of the powerhouse. The powerhouse was at one time called the 'Ost Powerhouse'.'" The original powerhouse was removed from operation February 7, 1969.

The present-day Moccasin Powerhouse was completed and placed in operation January 27, 1969. The facility's rated capacity is 100,000 kVA and there is a second 3,000 kVA generator called Moccasin Low Head Generating Plant, (completed 1986). The town site is a significant facility along the Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct system.

History
During the Gold Rush, the locale was a stage coach stop on Big Oak Flat Road. A covered bridge was built to allow crossing of Moccasin Creek during the wet season. There was a mining camp along Moccasin Creek and east of town along Priest Grade. Robberies were frequent during years when gold miners were successful in the area.

Priest Grade and Old Priest Grade
Immediately east of town, State Route 120 climbs from about 910 ft AMSL elevation to about 2450 ft at Priest Station, California, over a distance of 4.5 miles (10 km). Old Priest Grade, a narrower road and predecessor to the current route of SR120, covers the same change in elevation over about 1.8 mi. It is common to see vehicles with smoking brakes descending the old grade. During summer, ambient temperatures can be in the 90~100 °F range. In these temperatures, many vehicles overheat climbing the old grade. For this reason, bottles of water are available at turnouts along Old Priest Grade to fill overheating vehicles. A sign on Highway 120 also advises drivers to turn off air conditioning in order to prevent overheating while climbing either grade. Locals tell stories of car accidents in history where the vehicles left the path of Old Priest Grade and tumbled into Grizzly Gulch. The hillsides are sturdy chaparral with thick vegetation. The terrain was so difficult that, in a few cases, the cars and bodies were not retrieved, some locals claim. Construction to widen curves and add guard rails began in July 2010.

Government
In the California State Legislature, Moccasin is in, and in.

In the United States House of Representatives, Moccasin is in.

Outdoor Survival/Fire

Start the fire first with tinder, then add small twigs (wire size), then pencil size twigs, then thumb size twigs. Keep the fire small so that you aren't wasting valuable energy gathering firewood all the time. However if gathering wood is easy big fires attract attention. Burn whole logs without cutting them by just sliding them into the fire as they burn (the whole log will not catch fire).

Don't fear rain. Rainwater is just on the outside, and this does not mean that wood is sodden through. Green wood and young branches are "wet," and won't ignite readily, but any kind of wood will eventually burn on a hot enough fire. If it looks like a heavy downpour is coming, build a roof over your fire using one or two big logs about a foot (30cm) above the coals.

 * Paper, cardboard, or unneeded cloth can be easy to start on fire
 * Use small twigs from under the main canopy of the tree as tinder. (If they don't break off easily, they are still green.)
 * Dry pine needles work great to start fires and give off lots of smoke.
 * Rubbing bark between your hands until it is fluffy also makes excellent tinder
 * Cattails easily catch on fire.
 * If stranded in a vehicle, siphon out some gas or oil.

If you don't have matches:

 * The old "fire-bow" trick is very hard work even under the best circumstances
 * Fire can be started with a glass lens from a magnifying glass, mirror, binoculars, and the polished bottom of a soda can. (Most eyeglasses will not work.)
 * The reflector of a (broken) car headlight can be used to concentrate sunlight and start a fire. Place tinder where the filament is and point the lamp at the sun. Same with a flashlight reflector.
 * Flint and steel works but you must practice with it first.

Lately many new products have become available:

 * Two-part chemical fire starters work fairly well and work even in the rain
 * Magnesium fire starters work well but practice with them first

Some other ideas

 * a tealight candle works wonders.
 * If you have a 9 volt battery and a bit of steel wool, hold the steel wool against the battery's terminals and it will spark and start the steel wool burning.
 * Just for fun ( be careful with frost bite for this one) but you can actually start a fire by melting a piece of ice with your hands into a lens and using it to start a fire. However Mythbusters showed this does not work.
 * Be creative

To coax a struggling fire into a healthy blaze, fan it or blow on the coals. A flap of cardboard makes an ideal fan. Be careful not to blow it out.

Nuclear Dawn

Nuclear Dawn is a hybrid first-person shooter real-time strategy video game. It was originally announced in February 2006 as an amateur mod for the Source engine, but in April 2009 was revealed to have become a commercial project, still using Source, aimed at Windows PCs and Mac OS X. It was released on September 26, 2011.

Gameplay
One randomly selected player on each team is a commander, who directs the team from an overhead view. This player sets up infrastructure and spawn points. The remainder are soldiers who play it as a first-person shooter. These players can choose from four classes: stealth, a quick class who can turn invisible; exo, a slow heavy weapons specialist designed to destroy enemy buildings; assault, a player versus player class who can see invisible units; and a support class who can heal teammates or repair buildings constructed by the commander. New abilities become available to each class as the commander researches technologies and erects buildings. Each side comprises 16 players. A team wins when they destroy the other side's base. There are six post-apocalyptic maps.

Development
Drivable vehicles were originally planned, however this was cut due to issues.

Reception
Nuclear Dawn received mixed reviews on Metacritic. PC Gamer found the perks "muddled and unclear" and disliked how there is no way to practice the commander role outside a live game. However, they called it "surprisingly deep and well-designed" and praised the map design, technology tree, and first-person elements. GameSpot praised the design, game balance, and maps, but they criticized the lack of a tutorial or solo play. They said players' experiences will likely vary according to how experienced their teammates are, ranging from "a white-knuckle tactical struggle" to "a sloppy brawl". Although they felt there were still balancing issues that needed to be fixed, Rock Paper Shotgun recommended it to fans of Savage and Natural Selection.

Talk:Introduction to Philosophy/Logic/Modal Logic

I don't like this writing style very much. The content seems empty and little more than little thought-provoking limericks you might expect to find in a "deep thoughts" calendar. This is not what logic is. It seems more like a college students attempt to convince the world that he has accomplished something in his life.
