Celebrating Black History Month Part 1
in Experience, Foundation, Summer
Black History Month is a time to celebrate and remember African Americans and their contribution to our nation's history. Wolf Trap is excited to welcome some of these iconic and influential African American artists to our stages. We recognize the many accomplishments of these performers, and we are thrilled to share them with you, too!
Wynton Marsalis (2019)
Wynton Marsalis performs "Take The A Train"
Wynton Marsalis has been hailed by many throughout his life as a trumpet virtuoso player and composer. At age 22, Marsalis became the only musician to win a Grammy Award in jazz and classical music in the same year. He then went on to achieve nine more Grammy wins, and is the only artist ever to win five years in a row. He's spent a majority of his career encouraging a new generation of jazz musicians, and is a co-founder of the jazz program at Lincoln Center. Included in his long list of accolades are honorary doctoral degrees from 34 leading American institutes, a National Medal of Arts, a National Humanities Medal, and he's the first jazz musician ever to win a Pulitzer Prize. Wynton Marsalis and his infectious passion for his music are credited for rekindling a love for jazz and inspiring a renaissance that attracted a new generation to jazz music.
Songs of his you know (and if you don't know, you should!):
"Jig's Jig"
"Root Groove"
"I Got Lost in Her Arms"
"Where or When"
"Black Codes"
Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis comes to Wolf Trap August 16.

Buddy Guy (2019)
Buddy Guy Featuring B.B. King performing "Stay Around A Little Longer"
Ranked #23 in Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time", George "Buddy" Guy is a Chicago blues style guitar player and singer who has been cited as an inspiration by musicians such as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan. His electrifying guitar skills have earned him places in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame, and the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum. Dedicated to keeping the blues alive, he opened his own blues club in Chicago called Buddy Guy's Legends where he still makes regular appearances and plays shows every January. According to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, "his guitar-playing style was so visceral, so ferocious, that the blues had to be running through his veins."
"What Kind of Woman is This"
"First Time I Met The Blues"
"Let Me Love You Baby"
Buddy Guy + Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band hit the Wolf Trap stage June 23.
Diana Ross (2019)
Diana Ross performing "I'm Coming Out"
When a young Diana Ross and a couple of her neighborhood friends decided to form a singing group together, they probably never predicted the fame they would rise to as The Supremes. One of the world's best-selling groups, Motown's most successful act, and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, the group released a record-setting twelve number-one hit singles on the US Billboard Hot 100, and it's said that their success paved the way for future African American R&B and soul artists to gain mainstream popularity.
Songs of hers you know (and if you don't know, you should!):
The Supremes:
"Stop! In the Name of Love"
Diana Ross (Solo):
"I'm Coming Out"
"Ain't No Mountain High Enough"
Diana Ross comes to Wolf Trap June 27.
Bobby Brown & Bell Biv DeVoe (2019)
Bobby Brown "My Prerogative"
Bell Biv DeVoe "Poison"
Bobby Brown began his career in the R&B/pop group, New Edition, before going solo and becoming a pioneer of the music genre "new jack swing", a fusion of hip-hop and R&B. His second solo album, Don't Be Cruel (1998), was one of the best-selling albums of the decade, dominating the Billboard Hot 100, and spawned hit singles such as "My Prerogative" and Grammy-award winning "Every Little Step". Three other former members of New Edition, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronnie DeVoe, formed a new group together when Brown left: Bell Biv DeVoe. Also known for their "new jack swing" style, but with a harder edged sound, their debut album Poison (1990) reached number 1 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-hop chart. Since breaking up, New Edition has played multiple reunion shows together, and are now touring as a new band: RBRM (Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Michael).
Songs of theirs you know (and if you don't know, you should!):
"My Prerogative"
"Every Little Step"
"Don't Be Cruel"
"Rock Wit'cha"
"Do Me!"
"She's Dope!"
Bobby Brown & Bell Biv DeVoe RBRM – 4 The Love of It Tour comes to Wolf Trap June 2.
Jennifer Hudson (2019)
From the American Idol stage to Broadway, Jennifer Hudson has had a career full of diverse endeavors—all of which she excelled at to the highest degree. Despite coming in seventh on American Idol, Hudson was recognized as an outstanding vocalist and beat out hundreds of professional singers and actresses for the role of Effie White in the film adaptation of the Broadway musical Dreamgirls. The role earned her a Golden Globe and an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2005, and in 2008 her self-titled debut album won a Grammy for best R&B album. Just when you thought she couldn't excel any further, Hudson scored the role of Shug Avery in the 2015 Broadway revival of The Color Purple, which won her both a Tony and another Grammy. More recently, she played the scene-stealing role of Motormouth Maybelle in NBC's Hairspray Live!, and was the winning coach on a season of The Voice.
Look for her coming up in:
The 2019 film adaptation of Cats, alongside stars like Idris Elba, Rebel Wilson, and Taylor Swift.
Jennifer Hudson with National Symphony Orchestra performs at Wolf Trap September 5.
Nas (2019)
Nas (Nasir Bin Olu Dara Jones) was born with music in his blood—his father, Olu Daru, a famed blues musician, instilled his love of music into his son at a very early age. Nas began his music career in 1991 at the age of 17, and by 1994 he released his debut album Illmatic—which received universal acclaim from both critics and the hip-hop community and is frequently ranked as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. Over two decades on, Nas remains an incendiary, outspoken, and brutally candid rapper on 2018's Nasir, his eleventh album and seventh to debut at the top of the Billboard 200.
In 2014, Illmatic was released as a special 20th anniversary edition titled Illmatic XX, and to celebrate the 25th anniversary this year—Nas is coming to the Filene Center stage to perform the entire Illmatic album backed by the National Symphony Orchestra in an incredible classical hip-hop performance.
"If I Ruled The World (Imagine That)"
"N.Y. State of Mind"
"Hate Me Now"
Nas performs with the National Symphony Orchestra at Wolf Trap July 14.
Mavis Staples with Lyle Lovett (2019)
Iconic soul singer and civil rights activist Mavis Staples returns to Wolf Trap this summer for a fourth appearance—this time with Lyle Lovett. Staples began her career singing with the family group in 1950. When she graduated from high school, the Staple Singers started touring, and—with their stunning harmonies and Pops Staples' distinctive, chiming guitar tone—rose from popularity in the gospel world to become a central part of the soundtrack to the protest movement of the 1960s. The Staple Singers' "freedom songs," magnificent expressions of strength and empowerment, earned the group a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005.
Staples would go on to record two albums produced by Prince and to work with Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, and George Jones. In 2017, she was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, and in 2018 received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Arts Awards.

From Lionel Messi and David de Gea: 5 footballers who married their fans
First Published Nov 24, 2020, 4:52 PM IST
Footballers are one of the most famous athletes in the sporting world, as they tend to attract a number of fans. Some of the footballers are humble enough to engage themselves with the fans, during which they tend to fall in love and even get married.
The sport of football has always charmed the fans with its thrilling gameplay, while it is the footballers who make the sport even more exciting with their magnificent skills. Naturally, the footballers earn quite a handsome fan base globally.
While most of the footballers avoid interacting much with the fans, some of them are humble enough to engage with them. In the process, some even tend to fall in love with one of their fans.
Consequently, there have been some who have taken it all the way and even got married. On the same note, we take a look at five footballers who did the same.
David de Gea: The current Manchester United goalkeeper, who hails from Spain, has a similar story. He has been dating Spanish singer, actress, and TV presenter, Edurne García Almagro, since 2010. The two happened to meet in Madrid, during de Gea's tenure at Atletico de Madrid, where she used to visit for the club's matches. After de Gea moved to England, Edurne caused a stir among Manchester fans, calling the city "uglier than the back of a fridge."
Cesc Fabregas: The former Chelsea midfielder has been with Daniella Semaan since 2011. The couple apparently met at a Japanese restaurant in London, where Daniella demanded an autograph for her son, who was his fan. It is since then the couple have been fond of each other and started dating before they decided to tie the knot in 2018. Interestingly, Daniella happens to be 11 years older than Fabregas.
Sergio Ramos: The current Spanish and Real Madrid defender, too, has a similar story. It was in 2012 when he met Pilar Rubio Fernández during one of his game with the club. Since then, they have had an instant liking for each other, as they dated for seven long years before getting hitched last year. The couple has three sons together.
Kevin-Prince Boateng: The former Ghana midfielder has a unique story, nonetheless. He was already married to Jennifer since 2007, before getting divorced three years later. It was the next year when he came across Melissa Satta, who had already dated a couple of footballers in Serie A, like Christian Vieri and John Carew, besides being a football fan. As they started seeing each other, they gelled well as they went on to tie the knot in 2016. Meanwhile, she gave a hilarious reason of why Boateng was so injury prone, saying "The reason why he [Kevin-Prince Boateng] is always injured is that we have sex 7-10 times a week."
Lionel Messi: This is the most exciting name on the list, as the Argentine superstar and one of the modern-day GOATs shares a similar story. It was since 2008, when Messi was aged 20, he was in a relationship with Antonella Roccuzzo, who happened to be a fellow native from Rosario, as the couple knew each other since he was five-years-old. She also happens to be the cousin of his best friend, Lucas Scaglia. Antonella supported Messi and Barcelona throughout, as she was a big fan of his gameplay. It was in 2009 when Messi came out publicly about it, as he tied the knot with her in 2017, while the couple has three sons.

1) I suggest that Herb's new text (the last two sentences above) be made the first annex, as it in fact constitutes the first acceptable identification algorithm that is defined.  Alternatively, let us slightly reword the preceding text to clarify that the last sentences describe one acceptable algorithm among potentially several.
2) I furthermore suggest that the sentence "Note that UTF16 with a BOM conforms to this requirement" be deleted, for that is redundant as a consequence of Herb's wording.
3) Finally, I recommend moving the sentence "The use of a BOM for Unicode encodings, including UTF8, is recommended" to the end of that passage, so as to place the comments about acceptable identification algorithms immediately after the requirement that some encodings be "algorithmically identifiable".  This will form a clearer logical progression.
I hope these changes will be adopted, but my acceptance of the proposal is not conditioned on that.

National Tibetan Plateau Data Center Reported on GEWEX Quarterly
The National Tibetan Plateau Data Center (TPDC) is one of a first group of 20 national data centers approved by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China in 2019. It possesses the most comprehensive scientific data on the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding regions of any data center in China. Recently, the work of TPDC was the subject of a report in GEWEX Quarterly, the newsletter of the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX) project under WCRP (World Climate Research Programme).
TPDC promotes Third Pole Earth system sciences by integrating and sharing Third Pole data resources, particularly those obtained through the implementation of the Second Tibetan Plateau Scientific Expedition and Research (STEP) program, a national key program initiated in August 2017 and led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
TPDC provides online and offline data download services according to TPDC Data Sharing Protocol with bilingual of Chinese and English (https://data.tpdc.ac.cn/). The center has already shared more than 1,900 datasets, covering geography, atmospheric science, cryospheric science, hydrology, ecology, geology, geophysics, natural resource science, social economy, and other fields. It has more than 31,600 registered users by now. TPDC complies with the principle of "Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR)", and has adopted a series of measures to protect the rights of intellectual property by giving credit to data providers.
TPDC has continuously strengthened cooperation with various international programs and projects related to the Third Pole research. The Third Pole Environment (TPE) is an international program for interdisciplinary study of the Third Pole region and beyond. TPDC is responsible for maintaining data sharing platform for TPE. TPDC is also strengthening cooperation with GEWEX. Some frequently used GEWEX datasets have already been released by TPDC. At the same time, TPDC supports GEWEX in enhancing access to water-energy related observation data, and data sharing over broader high mountain regions. In the future, TPDC will continue to strengthen the cooperation with other international programs and projects. It aims to become a reliable in-situ, remote sensing and model output data repository for global Third Pole research.

The Breuer in the 1960s.Photo: Arthur Swoger/Getty Images
Take a Trip Back Through the History of New York's Iconic Breuer Building
The former home of the Whitney is now an outpost of the Metropolitan Museum of Art
By Stephen Wallis
The Breuer is back in business. The Upper East Side landmark known as the Whitney Museum of American Art for nearly 50 years—before the Whitney decamped to its new home downtown—is reopening on March 18 as an outpost of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Met Breuer, named after its architect, Marcel Breuer, will house exhibitions incorporating works from the Met's collections while the museum renovates its modern and contemporary wing in its main building overlooking Central Park.
Prior to moving in, the Met did modest restoration work on the five-story Brutalist structure that New York Times architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable declared "the most disliked building" in the city when it opened in September 1966. Of course, she then went on to praise the architect's "thoughtful planning and sensitive artistry in the use of materials" in creating a "museum raised to the level of architectural art." Indeed, while some complained that Breuer's granite-clad inverted ziggurat clashed with the surrounding brownstones and postwar apartment buildings, over time it became almost universally embraced for its distinctive profile and idiosyncratic features, from the asymmetrical windows and moatlike sculpture garden to the suspended concrete grid ceilings and flagstone floors. But the gallery space inside proved too confining, and the Whitney embarked on a series of failed expansion proposals by three different architects over two decades before ultimately commissioning Renzo Piano to create an entirely new building at the south end of the High Line.
The timing proved perfect for the Met, which has signed a lease with the Whitney that ensures Breuer's masterwork will remain a museum for at least the next eight years. In advance of the Met Breuer's debut, Architectural Digest looks back on key moments in the building's history.

1966: The Whitney Museum Moves InOn September 27, 1966, Mrs. George Macculloch Miller (a.k.a. Flora Payne Whitney)—whose mother opened the first Whitney Museum of American Art in Greenwich Village in 1931—unveiled the Whitney's $6 million Marcel Breuer–designed building at Madison Avenue and 75th Street. The notable attendees included Jacqueline Kennedy, chair of the museum's national committee. Later that evening, during the private preview of the inaugural exhibition, "Art of the United States: 1670–1966," the museum received a call claiming—falsely, it turned out—that a bomb had been placed inside.
1973: The First BiennialSince the Whitney's earliest days, its regular surveys of recent American painting and sculpture have served as closely watched snapshots of the country's art scene. In 1973, the museum instituted the every-other-year format that continues to this day. The first Whitney Biennial filled all five floors of the Breuer building with works by 221 artists, ranging from leading figures of the day such as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Louise Nevelson, and Robert Motherwell to rising stars like Elizabeth Murray, Louise Fishman, Peter Campus, and Barbara Kruger.
1985: Michael Graves Expansion PlansLonging to grow beyond its original 25,000 square feet of gallery space, the Whitney unveiled a proposal for a $37.5 million, 134,000-square-foot addition designed by architect Michael Graves, whose postmodern design would have incorporated the Breuer building into an amalgamation of stylistically diverse components. Faced with opposition, the architect devised modified schemes in 1987 and '89 before the expansion plan was abandoned.

1993: The Political BiennialThe Whitney's 1993 Biennial, infamously branded the "political biennial," is arguably the most memorable of the museum's signature surveys—in part because of the vociferously antagonistic reviews it prompted. Curated by Elisabeth Sussman, the show embraced an unusually diverse range of artists, whose work often dealt with race, gender, sexuality, socioeconomic issues, and the AIDS crisis. Detractors called it aggressive, condescending, and earnest. Among the works most often singled out were the visitor buttons designed by Daniel Joseph Martinez that read "I can't imagine ever wanting to be white." In the years since, the 1993 Biennial has been recognized as one of the most influential exhibitions in the museum's history.
1998: New Fifth-Floor GalleriesBy moving its library, archives, and offices from the top floor of the Breuer building to an adjoining brownstone on 74th Street, the museum added 8,000 square feet of exhibition space for the display of its permanent collection. For the first time, the Whitney had dedicated galleries for its trove of major works by Alexander Calder, Edward Hopper, Louise Nevelson, Charles Sheeler, and other 20th-century giants. Designed by Gluckman Mayner Architects, the $5 million project was funded with a gift from then-chairman Leonard Lauder, whose name appears on the galleries along with that of his wife, Evelyn, who died in 2011.
2001: Rem Koolhaas Expansion PlansReviving its expansion ambitions, the museum enlisted architect Rem Koolhaas to draw up plans. His initial scheme would have left the Breuer essentially untouched while transforming four adjacent brownstones that the Whitney owned into galleries and, behind them, adding a new 11-story building that would have cantilevered out over the original museum. When that proposal ran into opposition, Koolhaas came up with a more modest plan that failed to win over detractors. In part because of the reported $200 million estimated cost, in part because of concerns over the boldness of the design, the plans were scrapped in April 2003.

2002: $200 Million Joint Gift of ArtIn what was hailed at the time as the largest gift of postwar American art to a museum, the trustees of the Whitney—led by then-chairman Leonard Lauder—joined together to donate a trove of 86 paintings, sculptures, and prints with a value estimated at $200 million. Included were works by Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, Ellsworth Kelly, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, and other 20th-century masters, giving a major boost to the Whitney's permanent holdings. Some works were purchased at galleries and auctions, while others were acquired directly from the artists or came from trustees' own collections. The game-changing group was displayed in a special exhibition from October 24, 2002, through January 26, 2003.
2004: Renzo Piano Expansion PlanBarely a year after scuttling the Koolhaas expansion project, the museum asked architect Renzo Piano to come up with a proposal with a more realistic chance of getting built. The architect devised a sleek nine-story tower that would play off Breuer's granite Brutalist structure. Accessed via a glass-covered entrance and garden, the addition would have doubled the size of the museum. Despite winning approval from local and city regulators, the Whitney abandoned the project in 2006, shifting its focus to relocating to a site with more flexibility. Piano would go on to design the new building, which is located in Manhattan's Meatpacking District.

2014: The Last ExhibitionThe Whitney's final exhibition at the Breuer building, a retrospective of the work of Jeff Koons, ran from June 27 through October 19. The largest survey the Whitney has ever devoted to a single artist, it was also among the highest attended, with the museum remaining open for 36 hours straight on the last weekend.
Following a week of special previews, the Met Breuer will open to the public on March 18 with exhibitions on four floors of the museum. The centerpiece is a sprawling, centuries-spanning show titled "Unfinished," on view through September 4, which explores works never completed or left in a deliberately unresolved state by the artists.

An honorific is a title that conveys esteem, courtesy, or respect for position or rank when used in addressing or referring to a person. Sometimes, the term "honorific" is used in a more specific sense to refer to an honorary academic title. It is also often conflated with systems of honorific speech in linguistics, which are grammatical or morphological ways of encoding the relative social status of speakers.
Typically, honorifics are used as a style in the grammatical third person, and as a form of address in the second person. Use in the first person, by the honored dignitary, is uncommon or considered very rude and egotistical. Some languages have anti-honorific (despective or humilific) first person forms (expressions such as "your most humble servant" or "this unworthy person") whose effect is to enhance the relative honor accorded to the person addressed.

Modern English honorifics
Main article: English honorifics
The most common honorifics in modern English are usually placed immediately before a person's name. Honorifics which can be used (both as style and as form of address) include, in the case of a man, "Mr" (irrespective of marital status), and in the case of a woman the honorific may depend on her marital status: if she is unmarried, it is "Miss", if she has been married it is "Mrs", and if her marital status is unknown, or it is not desired to specify it, "Ms". The honorific "Mstr" may also be used for a boy who has not yet entered society. Someone who does not want to express a gender with their honorific may occasionally use Mx, Ind. or Misc..
In the U.S., these terms are styled with a period ("Mr." or "Mrs.") because they were originally abbreviations (of "Mister" and "Mistress"). "Ms." is also styled with a period for consistency. In the United Kingdom, periods are typically not used.
Other honorifics may denote the honored person's occupation, for instance "Doctor", "Esquire", "Captain", "Coach", "Officer", "The Reverend" for all clergy or "Father" (for a Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, or Anglican Christian priest), "Rabbi" for Jewish clergy, or Professor.[a] Holders of an academic Doctorate such as PhD are addressed as "Doctor" (abbreviated Dr). "Master" as a prefix ahead of the name of boys and young men up to about 16 years of age is less common than it used to be, but is still used by older people addressing the young in formal situations and correspondence.
Some honorifics act as complete replacements for a name, as "Sir" or "Ma'am", or "Your Honor". Subordinates will often use honorifics as punctuation before asking a superior a question or after responding to an order: "Yes, sir" or even "Sir, yes, sir."
Judges are often addressed as "Your Honour" (or "Honor" in the United States) when on the bench, and the style is "His/Her Honour" the plural form is "Your Honours". If the judge also has a higher title, that may be the correct honorific to use, for example, in Britain: "Your Lordship". Members of the U.S. Supreme Court are addressed as "Justice".
Similarly, a monarch (ranking as a king/queen or emperor) and his/her consort may be addressed or referred to as "Your/His/Her Majesty", "Their Majesties", etc. (but there is no customary honorific accorded to a female monarch's consort, as he is usually granted a specific style). Monarchs below kingly rank are addressed as "Your/His/Her Highness", the exact rank being indicated by an appropriate modifier, e.g. "His Serene Highness" for a member of a princely dynasty, or "Her Grand Ducal Highness" for a member of a family that reigns over a grand duchy. Verbs with these honorifics as subject are conjugated in the third person (e.g. "you are going" vs. "Your Honour is going" or "Her Royal Highness is going".) Protocol for monarchs and aristocrats can be very complex, with no general rule; great offence can be given by using a form that is not exactly correct. There are differences between "Your Highness" and "Your Royal Highness"; between "Princess Margaret" and "The Princess Margaret". All these are correct, but apply to people of subtly different rank. An example of a non-obvious style is "Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother", which was an official style, but unique to one person.
In music, a distinguished conductor or virtuoso instrumentalist may be known as "Maestro".
In aviation, pilots in command of a larger civil aircraft are usually addressed as "Captain" plus their full name or surname. This tradition is slowly diminishing in the United States and most European Union countries. However, many countries, especially in Asia, follow this tradition and address airline pilots, military pilots, and flight instructors exclusively as "Captain" even outside of the professional environment. In addition, such countries' etiquette rules dictate that this title must be placed on all the official letters and social invitations, business cards, identification documents, etc. In the U.S., when addressing a pilot, common etiquette does not require the title "Captain" to be printed on official letters or invitations before the addressee's full name. However, this is optional (akin to "Esq" after an attorney's name, in the U.S.) and may be used where appropriate, especially when addressing airline pilots with many years of experience.
Occupants of state and political office may be addressed with an honorific. A monarch may be addressed as His/Her Majesty, a president as Your Excellency or Mr/Madam President, a minister or secretary of state as "Your Excellency" or Mr/Madam Secretary, etc. A prime minister may be addressed as "the Honorable". In the UK, members of the Privy Council are addressed as "the Right Honourable ...". A member of Parliament or other legislative body may have particular honorifics. A member of a Senate, for example, may be addressed as "Senator". The etiquette varies and most countries have protocol specifying the honorifics to be used for its state, judicial, military and other officeholders.
Former military officers are sometimes addressed by their last military rank, such as "Captain", "Colonel", "General", etc. This is generally adopted only by those officers who served in at least the rank equivalent of Major.
Honorifics in other languages and cultures
In areas of East Africa, where the Bantu language Swahili is spoken, mzee is frequently used for an elder to denote respect by younger speakers. It is used in direct conversation and used in referring to someone in the third person.
While Swahili is Bantu, it is highly influenced by Arabic and Hindi languages and cultures. Babu is a prefix honorific used with elders, similar to mzee, but may also mean grandfather. Other prefix honorifics are ndugu, for brother or a close male friend, and dada for a sister or close female friend; thus, John and Jane would be Ndugu John and Dada Jane, respectively.
Amongst the Akan ethnic groups of West Africa's Ghana, the word nana is used as an aristocratic pre-nominal by chiefs and elders alike.
In Yorubaland, also in West Africa, the word ogbeni is used as a synonym for the English "mister". Titled members of the region's aristocracy are therefore called oloye instead, this being the word for "chief". Although the former of the two titles is only used by men, aristocrats of either gender are addressed using the latter of them.
Some honorifics used by Ancient Romans, such as Augustus, turned into titles over time.
Main article: Chinese honorifics
During the ancient and imperial periods, Chinese honorifics varied greatly based on one's social status, but with the end of Imperial China, many of these distinctions fell out of colloquial use due to the May Fourth Movement. Some honorifics remain in use today, especially in formal writings for the court and business settings.
Indian honorifics abound, covering formal and informal relationships for commercial, generational, social, and spiritual links. Honorifics may be prefix, suffix, or replacement types. There are many variations.
Prefix type: The most common honorifics in India are usually placed immediately before the name of the subject. Honorifics which can be used of any adult of the appropriate sex include Sri (also Romanised as Shri, abbreviation of Sriman), Smt (abbreviation of Srimati), and Kum (abbreviation of Kumari). In Punjab, Sardar is used for Sikh men and Sardarni for Sikh women. In Tamil, Thiru (abbreviation of Thiruvalar for men) and Thirumathi (for women) are used.In Telugu, Chi (abbreviation of 'chiranjeevi') is used for younger men and Chi.La.Sou (Chiranjeevini Lakshmi Soubhagyavathi) is prefixed for the names of younger women. In India, honorifics mostly come prior to the name of object.
Replacement type: Some honorifics, like Bhavān or Bhavatī, act as complete replacements for a name. For example, in Gujarati, for an uncle who is your mother's brother, the replacement honorific maama (long "a" then short "a") is used, and a male friend will often earn the suffix honorific of bhai.
Suffix type:
The traditional Hindi honorific is the suffix -ji. For example, M.K. Gandhi (the Mahatma) was often referred to as Gandhi-ji. (Hindi, like many languages, distinguishes between pronouns for persons older in age or status. Such a person is referred as aap; a person of same status is called tum (both translating as "you" in English, but similar in principle to the vous/tu distinction in French or the usted/tú distinction in Spanish). A similar distinction exists for third person pronouns. When honorifics are attached in Hindi, the verb matches the plural case.)
The traditional Bengali honorific for ordinary men is the suffix Babu (বাবু), used with the person's given (first) name. Thus, Shubhash Basu would be Shubhash-Babu. For men with whom one has a more formal relationship, the suffix Moshai (মশাই) (mohashoi (মহাশয়)) is used with the person's family (last) name. Thus, Shubhash Basu would be Basu-Moshai.
The traditional Kannada honorific is the suffix -avaru. For example, Visveswariah was referred to as Visveswariah-avaru.
The traditional Marathi honorific is the suffix -rao. For example, Madhav Scindia was referred to as Madhav-rao.
The traditional Tamil honorific is the suffix Avargal. Dalai Lama would become Dalai Lama Avargal.
The traditional Telugu honorific is the suffix Garu. Thus, Potti Sriramulu would be Potti Sriramulu Garu.
Italian honorifics are usually limited to formal situations. Professional titles like Ingegnere (engineer) are often substituted for the ordinary Signore (mister), while Dottore (doctor) is used very freely for any graduate of a university. Honorifics lose their e ending when juxtaposed to a surname: e.g., dottor Rossi, cardinal Martini, ragionier Fantozzi.

Mi-rareta (Sonkeigo)
The word in Japanese for honorifics, keigo (敬語), is used in Japanese everyday conversations. Japanese honorifics are similar to English, with titles like "Mister" and "Miss", but in Japanese, which has many honorifics, their use is mandatory in many formal and informal social situations. Japanese grammar, as a whole, tends to function on hierarchy; honorific stems are appended to verbs and many nouns, primarily names, and in many cases one word may be exchanged for another word entirely with the same verb or noun meaning, but with different honorific connotations.
In Japan, there are three rough divisions of honorifics:
Teineigo (丁寧語), the most popular keigo that is used in daily life, used as a formal and polite way of speaking to others in general. It is usually used when the speaker does not know the other person well. Under teineigo there is also bikago (美化語, beautiful, clean language) which is used when people simply want to speak in a polite way regardless of the age or class of the other person.
Sonkeigo (尊敬語) is another type of keigo. It is used to make the person who is being spoken to in a higher position. It is mainly used at work and when speaking with teachers. In the past, this was a type of language that was formed based on the classes Japanese society used to have. Saikoukeigo (ja:最高敬語) is the highest sonkeigo that exists and it is used only for the Japanese emperor, his family members and equivalent foreign nobles.
Kenjougo (謙譲語) lowers the position of the speaker or the subject of the conversation, and is primarily used at workplace and in the academia. This is also specifically used when the person is much older or in a higher position than the speaker, or often when one apologizes to someone else.
Indonesia's Javanese majority ethnicity has many honorifics.[1] For example:
Bang or Bung is a somewhat outdated, egalitarian term to refer to a brotherhood among men. Bang is Betawi language for Mas.
Bapak and its contraction Pak meaning: "Sir", "Mister", or literally "Father".
Bapak Cilik and its contraction Pak lik are used for a very familiar friend or sir; they literally meaning "small father" or a relative younger than one's father.
Bapak Gede and its contraction Pak de are used for a big father, uncle, or relative older than one's father, meaning literally "Grand Sir".
Bendara Raden Mas, Bendara Mas, or the contraction 'ndoro, meaning "Prince, flag-bearer 'His Highness'".
Eyang Putera Kakung and its contraction Eyang Kakung meaning "grandfather", literally "Grand Sir".
Eyang Puteri and its contraction Eyang meaning "grandmother", literally "Grand Lady".
Ibu and its contraction Bu meaning: "Madam", "Ma'am", "Ms.", or "Mrs.", and literally meaning "Mother".
I Gusti means "His or Her Royal Majesty".
Kyai is an honorific used with a highly respected Muslim cleric (same as mullah in Iran and maulana in South Asia).
Mbak yu and the more common mbak are derived from Surakarta court. Initially used to address unmarried women who are adolescents or of marriagable age, they are now used with all women, with no age or marital status connotation.
Mbok is not an honorific; it denotes an older woman of very low status, in some cases a domestic worker.
Raden Behi, contracted to Den Behi, means "Heir Apparent" and is now obsolete.
Raden Emas and its contraction Mas denote: "Mr." among colleagues, friends, and others of slightly higher age or social status, meaning literally "Golden Son", "Lord", or "Heir Apparent".
Raden Emas Behi, contracted to Mas Behi, means "Second Heir Apparent" and is now obsolete.
Korean honorifics are similar to Japanese honorifics, and similarly, their use is mandatory in many formal and informal social situations. Korean grammar as a whole tends to function on hierarchy; honorific stems are appended to verbs and some nouns, and in many cases, one word may be exchanged for another word entirely with the same verb or noun meaning, but with different honorific connotations. Linguists say there are six levels of honorifics in Korean but, in daily conversation, only four of them are widely used in contemporary Korean. Suffix -ssi-(씨) is used at most honorific verbs, but not always. It is considered very impolite and offensive not to use honorific sentences or words with someone who is older or has a higher social status, and most Koreans avoid using non-honorific sentences with someone they have met for the first time. In Korean, names, first or last, always precede a title, e.g., Park Sonsaengnim, Park Kwanjangnim, etc.
Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore
Main articles: Malay names and Malay styles and titles
A complex system of Titles and honorifics is extensively used in the Malay language-speaking cultures in Brunei and Malaysia. In contrast Singapore, whose Malay royalty was abolished by the British colonial government in 1891, has adopted civic titles for its leaders. Being Muslim, Malay people address high-ranking religious scholars as tok imam (grandpa imam). Tok dalang is a honorific used to address a village leader.
Pakistan has numerous honorific forms that may be used with or as a substitute for names. The most common honorifics in Pakistan are usually placed immediately before the name of the subject or immediately after the subject. There are many variations across Pakistan.
Prefix type: The traditional Urdu honorific in Pakistan for a man is the prefix Mohtaram. For example, Syed Mohammad Jahangir would become Mohtaram Syed Mohammad Jahangir. The traditional Urdu honorific in Pakistan for a woman is the prefix Mohtarama. For example, Shamim Ara would become Mohtarama Shamim Ara.
Suffix type: The traditional Urdu honorific in Pakistan for a man is the suffix Sahab. For example, Syed Zaki Ahmed would become Syed Zaki Ahmed Sahab. The traditional Urdu honorific in Pakistan for a woman is the suffix Sahiba; for instance, Shamim Ara would become Shamim Ara Sahiba.
Persian cultures
Persian honorifics generally follow the second name, especially if they refer to gender or particular social statuses (e.g., Name Agha [Mr.], Name Khanom [Ms.], Name Ostad [teacher or cleric], Name Rayis [manager, leader or director]). Such honorifics are used in both formal and informal situations. A more formal honorific referring to gender would be Jenab [His Excellency], which preceds Name Agha [Mr.] and Sarkar [Her Excellency], which precedes Name Khanom [Ms.]. A newer honorific is Arjomand [esteemed], which comes after other honorifics (except those referring to gender), and is not gender-specific (e.g., Ostad Arjomand Name Surname, or Rayis Arjomand Sarkar Khanom Name Surname). They are generally used in very formal situations.
Main article: Filipino styles and honorifics
The usage of Filipino honorifics differs from person to person, though commonalities occur like the occasional insertion of the word po or ho in conversations, and their dependence on age-structured hierarchies. Though some have become obsolete, many are still widely used in order to denote respect, friendliness, or affection. Some new "honorifics", mainly used by teenagers, are experiencing surges in popularity.
The Tagalog language has honorifics like Binibini/Ate ("Miss", "Big sister"), Ginang/Aling/Manang ("Mrs.", "Madam"), Ginoo/Mang/Manong/Kuya ("Mister", "Sir", "Big brother") that have roots in Chinese culture.
Depending on one's relation with the party being addressed, various honorifics may be used.
As such addressing a man who is older, has a higher rank at work or has a higher social standing, one may use Mr or Sir followed by the First/ last/ or full name. Addressing a woman in a similar situation as above one may use "Miss", or "Madam" and its contraction "Ma'am", followed by First/ last/ or full name. Older married women may prefer to be addressed as "Mrs." The use of Sir/Miss/Madam or Ma'am, followed by the first name, nickname, or surname is usually restricted to Filipino vernacular and social conversation, even in television and film. Despite this, non-Filipinos and naturalized Filipinos (such as expat students and professionals) also address older people in the Filipino way.
On a professional level, many use educational or occupational titles such as Architect, Engineer, Doctor, Attorney (often abbreviated as Arch./Archt./Ar., Engr., Dr. [or sometimes Dra. for female doctors], and Atty. respectively) on casual and even formal bases. Stricter etiquette systems frown upon this practise as a sign of Filipino professionals' obsession with flaunting their educational attainment and professional status.[2] Despite this, some of their clients (especially non-Filipinos) would address them as simply Mr. or Mrs./Ms. followed by their surnames (or even Sir/Ma'am) in conversation. It is very rare, however, for a Filipino (especially those born and educated abroad) to address Filipino architects, engineers, and lawyers, even mentioning and referring to their names, the non-Philippine (i.e. international standard) way.
Even foreigners who work in the Philippines or naturalized Filipino citizens, including foreign spouses of Filipinos, who hold some of these titles and descriptions (especially as instructors in Philippine colleges and universities) are addressed in the same way as their Filipino counterparts, although it may sound awkward or unnatural to some language purists who argue that the basic titles or either Sir or Ma'am/Madam are to be employed for simplicity, as they are unnecessary when he or she is included in a list of wedding sponsors, or when his or her name appears in the list of officials of a country club or similar organization. They are uncalled for in public donations, religious activities, parents–teachers association events, athletic competitions, society pages of newspapers, and in any activity that has nothing to do with one's title or educational attainment.[2] It is also acceptable to treat those titles and descriptions (except Doctor) as adjectival nouns (i.e., first letter not capitalized, e.g. architect <name>) instead.
Even though Doctor is really a title in standard English, the "created" titles Architect, Attorney, and Engineer (among other examples) are a result of vanity (titles herald achievement and success; they distinguish the title holder from the rest of society) and insecurity (the title holder's achievements and successes might be ignored unless announced to the public),[2] even due to historical usage of pseudo-titles in newspapers when Filipinos first began writing in English.
Possible reasons are firstly, the fact the English taught to Filipinos was the "egalitarian" English of the New World, and that the Americans who colonized the Philippines encountered lowland societies that already used Iberian linguistic class markers like "Don" and "Doña." Secondly, the fundamental contradiction of the American colonial project. The Americans who occupied the Philippines justified their actions through the rhetoric of "benevolent assimilation". In other words, they were only subjugating Filipinos to teach them values like American egalitarianism, which is the opposite of colonial anti-equality. Thirdly, the power of American colonialism lies in its emphasis on education—an education that supposedly exposed Filipinos to the "wonders" of the American way of life. Through education, the American colonial state bred a new elite of Filipinos trained in a new, more "modern", American system. People with advanced degrees like law or engineering were at the apex of this system. Their prestige, as such, not only rested on their purported intelligence, but also their mastery of the colonizer's way of life. This, Lisandro Claudio suspects, is the source of the magical and superstitious attachment Filipinos have to attorneys, architects and engineers. The language they use is still haunted by their colonial experience. They linguistically privilege professionals because their colonizers made them value a certain kind of white-collar work.[3] Again, even expatriate professionals in the Philippines were affected by these reasons when they resided and married a Filipino or were naturalized so it's not unusual for them to be addressed Filipino style.
Spanish-speaking cultures
Spanish has a number of honorific forms that may be used with or as substitutes for names, such as señor or caballero ("Mr.", "Sir", "Gentleman"); señora ("Madam", "Mrs.", "Lady", "ma'am") and señorita ("Miss", "young lady"); licenciado for a person with bachelor's or a professional degree (e.g., attorneys and engineers); maestro for a teacher, master mechanic, or person with a master's degree; doctor ("doctor"); etc. Also used is don (male) or doña (female) for people of rank or, in some Latin American countries (e.g., Puerto Rico), for any senior citizen. In some Latin American countries, like Colombia, "Doctor" is used for any respected figure regardless of whether they have a doctoral degree (for instance Colombian presidents are often referred to as Doctor ___); likewise "Maestro" is used for artistic masters, especially painters.
Additionally, older people and those with whom one would speak respectfully (e.g., one's boss or teacher), are often addressed as usted, abbreviated ud., a formal/respectful way of saying "you" (e.g. Dra. Polo, ¿cómo está usted? Dr. Polo, how are you?). The word usted historically comes from the honorific title vuestra merced (literally "your mercy"). This formal you is accompanied by verb conjugation that is different from the informal you tú. Intimate friends and relatives are addressed as tú. In some regions, addressing a relative stranger as tú can be considered disrespectful or provocative, except when it's directed to a person notably younger than the speaker, or in an especially informal context.
Pingelap
Pingelapese is a Micronesian language spoken on the Pingelap atoll and on two of the eastern Caroline Islands, called the high island of Pohnpei. Pingelapese does not employ many honorifics into their speech. Their society is structured in a way that everyone is seen as equal, most likely due to the fact that there are so few of them due to emigration. There is no structured hierarchy to enforce the use of honorific speech. There are not many polite vocabulary words and the language they use can be classified as a commoners' language.
However, among the Micronesian languages, Pohnpeian is the only language that uses a thoroughly developed honorific speech. This demonstrates that a highly structured hierarchical society was very important in their culture. There are multiple ways that Pohnpeic speakers show respect through their language. In the Pohnpeic language there is royal language, which is used for the two highest-ranking chiefs. Next, respect honorifics are used with other superiors and people who are considered respected equals. There is not only the use of honorifics, but humiliative language as well, which is used to lower oneself below higher-ranking people, showing respect and reverence. This speech was lost in Pingelap when Pohnpei speakers migrated to the Pingelap atoll and adapted their more casual way of speaking.
Even though the younger generation of Pingelapese speakers does not use honorific speech, elders in the language report being taught a form of 'language of respect'. This language was to be used to address elders and leaders in the community. Women were also told to use it towards their brothers and with their children. Phrases could be made polite by adding the second person singular possessive suffix -mwi. Other ways to utilize honorific speech is by changing words entirely.[4]
According to Thai translator, Mui Poopoksakul, "The Thai language is absolutely immediate in its indication of the speaker and addressee's places in the society and their relationship to each other. Thai has honorifics as well as what I like to call 'dishonorifics': it has a multitude of pronouns that are extremely nuanced—for example, there are so many ways to say 'I', and most of them already indicate the speaker's gender and often their age and societal standing relative to the person they are speaking to."[5]
The most common Thai honorifics are used to differentiate age between friends, family, and peers. The most commonly used are:
คุณ (RTGS: khun) (mid tone) is used the same way as "mister" or "Mrs" or "Miss". It is a formal way to refer to persons not overly familiar. It is also used as a pronoun for the word "you".
พี่ ({RTGS: phi) (falling tone) is used when speaking to or about an older sibling or friend. It is used for both men and women and can also be used when referring to oneself if one is older than the addressee(s).
น้อง (RTGS: nong) (high tone) is the exact opposite of the above. It is use when speaking to or about a younger sibling or friend. It is used between both men and women and can also be used when referring to oneself if the person speaking is younger than the addressee(s). It could be used by a babysitter to address the child she takes care of.
ครู (RTGS: khru) (mid tone) is used when addressing a teacher, translating literally to 'teacher'.
อาจารย์ ({RTGS: achan) (mid-tone both syllables) is used to address a professor. It is used much in the same way as khru however achan carries more prestige. It generally refers to someone who is a master in their field. Many Theravada Buddhist scholars and those who have dedicated their lives to Theravada Buddhism assume this title among their followers.
พระ (RTGS: phra) (high tone) This is perhaps one of the highest honorifics in Thai culture. It is reserved for monks and priests. It is also allows for use when referring to a most revered place or object such as a temple or palace.
Turkish honorifics generally follow the first name, especially if they refer to gender or particular social statuses (e.g. Name Bey [Mr.], Name Hanım [Ms.], Name Beyefendi [literally meaning "Lord Master"], Name Hanımefendi [literally meaning "Lady Master"], Name Hoca [teacher or cleric], Name Öğretmen [solely for teacher]). Such honorifics are used in both formal and informal situations. Another honorific is Sayın/Muhterem [esteemed], which precedes the surname or full name, and is not gender-specific. (e.g. Sayın/Muhterem Name Surname, or Sayın/Muhterem Surname). They are generally used in very formal situations.
Honorifics in Vietnamese are more complex compared to Chinese, where the origins of many of these pronouns can be traced, and many have fallen out of usage or have been replaced due to the changing times. An honorific, or a pronoun, in Vietnamese when referring to a person acts as a way to define two peoples' degree of relationship with one another. Examples of these pronouns include 'chị' older sister, 'ông' male elder and 'chú' younger uncle (younger brother of father/only used on father's side). The exclusive use of the Vietnamese words for 'I' and 'you' are considered informal and rude. Rather honorifics are used to refer to oneself and to others. These terms generally differ from province to province, or region to region. As with East Asian tradition, the surname is written prior to the given name (i.e., Hoang Khai Dinh: Hoang is the surname and Khai Dinh is the given name). This occurs in all formal situations. However, placing the surname last has become a commonality in order to cater to westerners, for example, on social media sites such as Facebook. When referring to a person as Mr or Mrs (teacher, painter, etc.) as in the English tradition of 'Mr Hoang', the given name is more commonly used e.g., "Mr Khai Dinh") in order not to cause confusion. This is due to many Vietnamese sharing the same surname (e.g., up to 40% of Vietnamese share the surname Nguyen).
Wuvulu-Aua
Further information: Wuvulu Island and Aua Island
Wuvulu-Aua does not normally incorporate honorifics as it is reserved for only the utmost respect. Originally without any honorifics, the semantics of pronouns change depending on the social context. In particular, the second person dual pronoun is used as an honorific address. The dual reference communicates that the second person is to be respected as two people. This honorific is typically reserved for in-laws. It is undocumented if any other honorifics exist beyond this one.[6]

Opposition and alternatives
People who have a strong sense of egalitarianism, such as Quakers and certain socialists, and others, eschew honorific titles. When addressing or referring to someone, they often use the person's name, an informal pronoun, or some other style implying social equality, such as "brother", "sister", "friend", or "comrade". This was also the practice in Revolutionary France and socialist countries which used Citoyen[ne] ("Citizen") as the manner of address.[citation needed]
Feminist criticism of the use of separate honorifics for married and unmarried women (Mrs. and Miss) has led to some women's adopting the honorific "Ms." In modern U.S. culture, it is considered rude to assume someone is married and address them as Mrs.[citation needed]
The all-inclusionary honorific Mx has been adopted by some[who?], particularly in the UK[citation needed], applying to any human regardless of gender, occupation, rank, social status, or other social/cultural factors.

What Should I Do after a Security Breach Is Announced?
1. Change your passwords immediately, especially online banking portals and email accounts.
2. Do NOT use the same login credentials for multiple accounts. Having the same passwords makes it much easier for hackers to legitimately access your accounts – even if they were not directly affected by a breach.
3. Create unique passwords, keep them secure, and don't share them. Password tools like password managers and generators are widely available, and they can be used for both personal and work-related accounts.

Dave Chappelle had another bad night
Sam Barsanti
Dave Chappelle's Block Party
For the last few years, it has seemed like Dave Chappelle is only in the news for bad reasons. Granted, it's not really news when a famous person successfully takes out the garbage or walks their dog, but it's still unfortunate. There was the time some asshole threw a banana peel at him, the time he wished that Hartford would be destroyed by a nuclear bomb, the time he got mad about people filming his set and refused to tell any jokes, and then, of course, the endless parade of hecklers who think that yelling out lines from Chappelle's Show is a good use of their time.
The latest installment in the "Maybe We Should Just Let Dave Chappelle Do His Thing And Not Make Things Hard For Him" saga comes to us from—where else?—TMZ, which reports that Chappelle had a bit of an "off night" at a show last week in Detroit. According to people in the crowd, he spent most of his time on stage "quietly smoking, rambling, and slurring his speech." TMZ also says that "many" are calling it "a drunken catastrophe." Now, because the venue says it's not responsible for what a performer does, angry fans are unable to have their tickets—which reportedly cost between $50 and $240—refunded. Well, at least they now all have their own "Complaining About Dave Chappelle" story.
TMZ talked to one of Chappelle's reps, however, and he says that "the incident inspired some additional sharp-witted material" from Chappelle, and "he came back with a vengeance" for his show the next day. So maybe that should be the headline here? "Dave Chappelle has bad show, followed by good show."

Malmö Porslinsfabriksaktiebolag var en kortlivad porslinsfabrik i Malmö.

Bolaget bildades hösten 1872 av Anders Caspar Holm, Frans Henrik Kockum d.y. och Carl A. Skarstedt. Holm, som troligen var initiativtagare till projektet, blev bolagets direktör, medan Ludvig Hammar blev föreståndare. Fabrikstomten, som var belägen i Östra Förstaden och omgavs av Exercisgatan, Malmgatan och Porslinsgatan inköptes 28 mars 1873, och 12 maj erhöll man lagfart för att påbörja fabrikbyggnationen. Ritningar i byggnadsnämndens arkiv är daterade maj, juli och september 1873, och produktionen kom troligen igång först 1874.

Vid starten hade man 84 arbetare, och 1875 hade arbetarstaben ökat till 127 personer. Fabriken tillverkade diverse hushållsporslin i flintgods och som stämpel användes Malmö stadsvapen. Framgångarna uteblev dock och fabriken försattes i konkurs redan 1876. Porslinsföremål från fabriken betraktas som stora rariteter, men omkring 200 av dessa finns Malmö museum och Kulturen i Lund.

Porslinsgatan fick 1877 sitt namn efter den då nedlagda fabriken.

Fabriken stod efter konkursen länge kvar, ännu 1881 hade varken byggnaderna eller redskapen tagit i bruk för annan verksamhet. När Joseph Swensson 1898 fick lagfart på byggnaden fanns ännu halvfärdigt porslin kvar i ungar, och delar av varulagret ännu orört. Under 1900-talet revs byggnaderna en efter en, porslinsfabrikens magasinsbyggnad fanns kvar fram till hösten 1977 då även den revs.

This patch implements an optional layer over HDFS that implements offline erasure-coding. It can be used to reduce the total storage requirements of DFS.
The goal of this JIRA is to discuss how the cost of raw storage for a HDFS file system can be reduced. Keeping three copies of the same data is very costly, especially when the size of storage is huge. One idea is to reduce the replication factor and do erasure coding of a set of blocks so that the over probability of failure of a block remains the same as before.
Many forms of error-correcting codes are available, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erasure_code. Also, recent research from CMU has described DiskReduce https://opencirrus.org/system/files/Gibson-OpenCirrus-June9-09.ppt.
My opinion is to discuss implementation strategies that are not part of base HDFS, but is a layer on top of HDFS.
