Learning a brand new language is usually a hard task, especially for grownups that already have an excessive amount of information inside their heads. Studying French is usually a challenging affair when you've got to get it done in a little period. You could possibly be learning French for work purposes, vacation to France or because you are shifting to France. Regardless of the cause, you will have to get familiar with the sentence structure used as well as the pronunciation. So how can you go about learning French in a few days or a few months? The solution is in a learn French CD.
Business English email writing does not have to always be done in an old school "professional" way. Most people use their email as a way to communicate with their friends and family. They usually will not check their email to see what kind of sales are offered from some company.
It is ideal for someone to be a translator who is bilingual and willing to work from home or boost their income. There are several ways that you can follow to increase the probability of finding and providing translation services.
Learning a new language is never easy. You are so used to your mother tongue that even pronunciation could be a problem. I've been through the process and it is painful, literally. As I've said, learning a new language is never easy, you might not find the suitable materials, too costly to attend language classes, or its difficult finding someone to teach. There are too many considerations stopping you from learning a new language. As a matter of fact, I've faced those problems personally. Luckily for me, I've sorted my way through.
According to accommodation theory, there are two main strategies: convergence and divergence. Convergence occurs when the speaker adjusts his or her normal speech to make it more similar to the interlocutor's speech or when the speaker converges toward a prestigious norm that he or she believes is favored by the interlocutor. In short, the speaker accepts the interlocutor's values and seeks to demonstrate that acceptance by his or her own linguistic behavior.
Songs are one of the easiest ways to learn a new language. There are many Spanish songs available which are fun, upbeat, and educational. By singing, your child is encouraged to practice the words in a non-threatening environment. Many Spanish songs "canciones de cuna" also have dances which encourage the child to reach, touch, or jump. These songs use movement to teach your child new words. By adding video to these songs Children's language programs illustrate the objects or actions that are sung. In this way songs can stimulate many of your child's senses in a fun, relaxed environment which encourages learning.
German is one of the most difficult languages in the world. However, it is spoken by more than 180 million people all over the world, which has a very high utilization. Therefore, many people are willing to learn German as their first or second foreign languages, in order to have a vantage point in the severe career competition. Unfortunately, most of us do not have enough spare time to learn a foreign language.
There are generally two types of Certified Translation practices in different countries. First, the countries that require the translator to sign under oath certifying the document is accurate. The second are the countries that require a Sworn Translation.
The benefit of being bilingual can't be overstated. You never know when you'll be in a position that would be much easier if you only knew how to speak Spanish. Rocket Spanish Premium offers a curriculum that has been designed to get you speaking Spanish comfortably and easily. This interactive multimedia software program gets you involved in the learning process from the very beginning.
Everyone will attest to the fact that learning a foreign language is a very difficult and tiresome endeavor. Most of us had to study a foreign language in High School or college but very few of us actually were able to become conversational, let alone master the language. Sitting in a classroom is a very static learning environment and requires a lot of work on the students part in terms of absorbing and practicing the language. A great way, however, to learn a language is to watch TV in foreign languages. With so many channels to choose from on satellite TV it is easy to come across a foreign program in the language you choose to learn.
In the colonial context, we find translators and interpreters, but particularly interpreters taking on an amazing range of responsibilities which go far beyond linguistic mediation. Interpreters in the colonial context acted as guides, explorers, brokers, diplomats, ambassadors and advisers on Indian or local affairs; that is why they were sometimes branded as traitors, because they were indispensable to the colonial authorities. In other contexts, too, translators and interpreters, in oral traditions such as the African tradition were expected to act as spokesmen for their communities, not just as linguistic mediators. In the eighteenth century in Turkey, the duty of the Naval Dragoman included the supervision of the collection of taxes from non-Muslim subjects, though later on the 1839 Tanzimat limited his responsibility to interpreting again, i.e. strictly linguistic mediation.
One of the most entertaining ways how to learn Hindi is by using mass media. It's much more fun than a Hindi course! Watching films, reading newspapers, listening to radio shows and enjoying other forms of media is a great way to learn any language. You hear the language spoken by native speakers at a natural pace. You hear it spoken in different voices and maybe different accents. You gain cultural awareness by being exposed to the same issues and information as native language speakers. You learn current, colloquial vocabulary and informalities of speech like contractions. Exposing yourself to Hindi language media is a formidable supplement to your Hindi course and a great way how to learn Hindi.
The organizers of upcoming "Sanskrit" conference in the year 2012 have already clarified their stand by announcing that they will give more weight to the science subjects. I have been observing the Sanskritists since some forty years with dismay. By the word science they mean Astronomy, Chemistry, Botany and Zoology. According to these University-products of the English-adopted-children, no shastra like Vyaakarana, Nyaaya, Vedanta is science! Dear University-based Sanskritists! Please explain me why there is a word 'Political Science' in your English ? How it is science according to your definition? The Sociologists say that the Sociology is science of society. How can you defend them? Or in your opinion, are they erring in defining their subject?
If you want your children to learn Spanish words and simple phrases, the Internet is a goldmine that you can use to help them learn. It is never too early for them to learn another language aside from their native one.
The Spanish language is increasing its popularity as a second language faster in the United States along with maintaining a large impact on many countries around the world. Start learning Spanish is very important in the modern world. The language is being taught in many schools, but every one has different pick up speed. This kind of learning requires patience, time and disposition to teach and sometimes a classroom environment is not the only crucial situation for each person to have perfect command of the language.For better dispocision to learn the language, Spanish lessons online for one to one is the most ideal way here have a chance to digest things at their own pace and time, without silence and move to a new or different issue only after have a thorough grip on the former. This will provide assistance to each bit in its intention and effort to speak Spanish fluently very good.

TOKYO — A minivan slammed into pedestrians early Tuesday on a street where people had gathered for New Year's festivities in downtown Tokyo, injuring eight people, police said.
The suspect, 21, Kazuhiro Kusakabe, was arrested and was being questioned, Tokyo Metropolitan Police said on customary condition of anonymity.
He is suspected of intentionally trying to kill people by driving the small vehicle through the street. NHK TV footage showed a small van with the entire front end smashed and officers and ambulance workers rushing to the scene.
A ninth person was injured after Kusakabe got out of the van and punched him, police said. His condition was not immediately known.
A large tank filled with kerosene was found in the van, police said. The suspect appeared to have planned to set his vehicle on fire, Mainichi newspaper and other Japanese media reported. Police declined to comment on the reports, saying such possible motives were still under investigation.
The crash occurred early Tuesday on Takeshita Dori, a road well known to tourists and pop culture and fashion fans that runs right by Meiji Shrine in Harajuku, Shibuya ward.

The Royal Navy is dropping anchor in the north-east of England to take part in two of the region's biggest events.
Three warships, HMS Invincible, HMS Leeds Castle and HMS Grimsby will be joining in celebrations on the Tyne for the Tall Ships Race.
And the public will be able to visit helicopters and see marines in action at the Sunderland International Airshow at the end of the month.
HMS Invincible, moored at North Shields, opens its doors on Saturday.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, there will be a team of navy instructors juggling with swing clubs and dancing the hornpipe at Spillers Wharf.
The warships will lead the flotilla out to sea as it sails on Thursday morning.
Visitors to the Sunderland International Airshow on 30 and 31 July will be able to take a closer look at a Sea King and a Black Cat Lynx Helicopter, handle Royal Marines' weapons and sit inside the cockpit of a Sea Harrier fighter.
A Royal Navy recruitment team will be present at both events.
Lt David Concarr, North East recruitment officer for the Royal Navy, said: "The Tall Ships Race and Sunderland International Air Show promise to be the biggest events of the year in the region and we're delighted to be a part of them."


I'm on a big breakfast kick lately, and sausage is one of my favorite breakfast foods. I always like a little bit of sweet and a little bit of savory on my breakfast plate. I am, however (being preggars and all) making a concerted effort to eat less processed foods, so I thought i'd try my hand at a homemade sausage.
If you've never made homemade sausage patties, I think you'll be surprised how simple it can be. The most important thing is creating the right spice mixture. I used lots of fresh herbs, seasoned the ground pork up with fennel seeds, and added red pepper for a little heat. Sauteed onions and fresh garlic add a nice texture and flavor as well. For a sweet and spicy version, try adding a tablespoon or two of maple syrup.
The best part is, these can be made in advance. I put these patties together Saturday afternoon so Sunday morning all I had to do was brown them up!
Crush fennel seeds and red pepper with a mortar and pestle, or use a knife to roughly chop them. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until soft. Add garlic, all herbs, fennel, and red pepper flakes. Saute one minute, then remove from heat. Let cool slightly.
Season ground pork with salt and pepper. Stir in onion mixture. Form into patties and refrigerate for 15 minutes, or overnight if making ahead. To cook the patties, heat a non stick pan over medium high. Coat with cooking spray. Cook the patties roughly 5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and cooked through (ground pork should be fully cooked to 160). Enjoy!

Just the Right Amount of Foam
In many countries around the globe, washing is still done by hand. People believe it ought to foam properly – because that's supposed to be a sign of effective cleaning. Yet this foaming is a problem, since after washing, laundry has to be rinsed out many times until all of the foam disappears. This is why researchers at WACKER have developed a defoaming agent that only begins to take effect during rinsing, halving the amount of water used.

Insect bites are painful and itchy. They can even transmit diseases. Although there are a few substances that protect us from these bites, they soon evaporate, which means that they have no real effect. Thanks to WACKER's cyclodextrins, however, it is possible to considerably increase the time that these substances remain effective. For instance, tests showed that they lasted for nine instead of six hours.

Mangoes are sensitive. At least a fifth of them spoil before they reach consumers in Europe or the US. That's why the Dutch company Liquidseal has developed a protective coating for such fruit. A VAE dispersion is sprayed on the mangoes immediately after they've been picked. This soon dries to form an ultrathin film that prevents the fruit from spoiling so quickly.

Theoretical Basis for Medical Geology - Part 1
The genesis of what has evolved into Medical Geology can be traced back to the realization of the environmental factor as one of the causal factors affecting health although, according to Finkelman et al. (2001), the impacts of geologic materials on human health have been recognized for thousands of years. This developed in response to apprehension of environmental degradation arising out of anthropogenic impacts resulting from industrial technology. Silent Spring (Carson, 1962) is the earliest expression of this apprehension has come to be defined by the health and environment cause-effect framework given in Fig. 1 below by WHO (2000).
These adverse or toxicological effects on health from the environment arise from poor air, water and soil quality as a result of contamination. In fact, the emergence of toxicology as an independent scientific discipline is a result of the effects on health from the environment. Natural materials also form the foundation of modern civilization and are crucial for almost every aspect of modern living. This interaction with natural materials is often viewed as harmless (Finkelman et al., 2001). However, some geologic materials pose significant health risks that jeopardize individuals, communities and even whole populations (Geotimes Staff, 2001)
Therefore, health effects, indicated by changes in longevity and functionality, arising from the environment imperatively require environmental stewardship through the study of earth materials and processes. In fact, Time magazine wrote in January 1989 that humans were threatening the state of the Earth's environment and declared it an endangered planet which making it more exigent on medical geology to supply solutions to health treats. The assessment of the influence of natural and anthropogenic earth science factors, according to Centeno et al. (2003), on the geographical distribution of a wide range of human and animal diseases has commenced.
MEDICAL GEOLOGY AS ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP
In traditional medical practice, according to by Moeller (1997), physicians deal with patients according to the model given in Fig. 2. In this clinical interventional model the intercession comes in the diagnosis and treatment of a disease to cure the patient. This affords intervention but no control over the disease to enable elimination of its source or cause before infection.
The environment health stresses need to be tackled to enable a measure of control of diseases arising from environmental factors. Traditionally these pre-emptive measures are taken under public health [branch of medicine dealing with safeguarding and improving community health through organized community effort involving prevention of disease, control of communicable disease and health education (Academic Press Dictionary of Science Technology)] including epidemiology. Moeller (1997) describes this practice according to the model given in Fig. 3.
Public health intervention seeks to establish some degree of control over sources of risks to human health and well being. However, this does not afford sufficient control as the causes and sources themselves are not addressed. The ability to exercise greater control lies in the field of environmental health which is defined by Pew Environmental Health Commission (2001) as comprising those aspects of human health, including quality of life, that are determined by interactions with physical, chemical, biological and social factors in the environment. It also refers to the theory and practice of assessing, correcting, controlling and preventing those factors in the environment that may adversely affect the health of present and future generations. This control according to Moeller (1997) is as in Fig. 4.
Environmental stewardship prevents environmental degradation and consequences for human health. The advantages are obvious as it reduces the risk factors in the environment. Medical Geology is concerned with the materials affecting public health and processes responsible for their behavior and distribution encompasses environmental stewardship.
Stewardship represents the underpinnings of Medical Geology which that also needs to be cast in a scientific and academic framework. An outline this is proposed below.
MEDICAL GEOLOGY CONCERN IN UNDERSTANDING EARTH SYSTEMS
FOR STEWARDSHIP
The Earth System
A system is defined as a set of objects with relationships between them and their attributes or also as a set of interdependent elements forming a collective entity. The Earth may be considered as a system and the components and their interconnections are shown in Fig. 5 below.
The understanding of this Earth System is sought for the purpose of intervention and control in order to prevent or intervene to arrest menace to public health. This involves the characterization and clarification of the components and processes achieved through the earth sciences which are directed towards environmental stewardship. Medical Geology is concerned with the understanding of how the geological, physical and biological processes of the Earth System are functionally interrelated including the geological-physical-biological interactions.
The Source-Pathway-Target Concept.
The effective practice of environmental stewardship using the Source-Pathway-Target concept (Holdgate, 1979), as shown in Fig. 6, requires erecting impedance between the Source, Pathway and Target for intervention and control as shown in Fig. 7.
Medical Geology aims at proving this stewardship in insuring that the source of harmful materials is capped. It does seem paradoxical to have clinical or public health intervention, as mentioned above, when the source is not controlled. This assures optimum intervention and control that lies in ensuring that the source, in the first instance, does not emanate harmful materials and the pathways available, secondarily, are checked.

SonAir adds three EC225s to stay ahead in Angola
To maintain leadership of airlift duties for the country's oil and gas sector, Angolan operator SonAir is commencing a partnership with Milestone Aviation Group for the lease of three EC225.
Read this story in our March 2014 printed issue.
To maintain leadership of airlift duties for the country's oil and gas sector, Angolan operator SonAir is commencing a partnership with Milestone Aviation Group for the lease of three EC225. The helicopters are the first of 30 aircraft ordered by Milestone 12 months ago. Deliveries are planned during the first and second quarters of 2014, and will join the EC225, AS332 L2 and AS365 N3 rotorcraft already in the SonAir fleet.
"As the largest African oil and gas helicopter operator, we rely on the EC225, with its range, capacity and overall performance, to perform challenging missions in tropical environments," says SonAir ceo João Andrade. "This transaction for near-term EC225 deliveries allows us to maintain our leadership position in the offshore oil and gas market.
"Milestone has provided us with customised, flexible terms on operating leases for EC225s that meet our needs, allowing us to fulfill the requirements of our customers, delivering value and operational leverage for our company."
The EC225's five-blade main rotor and low vibration levels make it an efficient solution for oil and gas missions, including offshore and passenger transport as well as SAR.
Commercial director, Henda Teixeira, adds: "We already operate a fleet of 11 EC225s and this was an important factor in our decision.
"The dry lease availability was the ideal option for the short to medium-term contract that our customers were requesting."
She says that the long range capability, the reliability and capacity are the most valued features of the type. It is hoped that the fleet will increase further by the end of the year, with 16 EC225s anticipated by the end of the first quarter 2015.
Sonair is a subsidory of the Angolan national oil company Sonangol.

Lawo stars for Astro Radio… virtually
Posted on: Tuesday 14th of August 2018
Installing a third generation of consoles in its radio studios, Kuala Lumpur's Astro Radio has standardized on virtual studio technology from German broadcast innovator, Lawo. "We had to re-think how a studio broadcast console should be in a rapidly evolving commercial FM radio industry," says Astro Radio Chief Technology Officer, Bala Murali Subramaney.
Astro began operation in 1996 using a cutting-edge audio routing system and digital broadcast consoles custom manufactured to meet its specific technical requirements. By 2006, greater functionality was required to simplify studio workflows and to allow on-air talent to focus on content.
"We took the best features of our first console, analyzed common operator mistakes and asked for improvement suggestions, then we condensed this data into a comprehensive document and presented it as our mandate to Lawo – whose response was the Zirkon-2s modular broadcast console," says Bala of its "second generation" of console. "The Zirkon-2s was simplicity personified in both form and function. For example, a press of a macro button could simultaneously record telephone calls, edit talksets and run an outside broadcast."
This success has now taken Astro Radio to its third generation of console for new studios in Kuala Lumpur as, in 2017, the operation acquired two new radio stations and needed space for new on-air studios, producer workstations and equipment room – on top of its existing 13 on-air studios, seven news studios, three voice booths, eight audio production studios and edit suites, and six equipment rooms. Plans for the consoles and routing system were already in hand, when the station relocated to share premises with other Astro company divisions in order to accommodate its expanded studio requirements.
"In mid-2016, we had begun sketching out plans for a virtual console, which would challenge the industry perception of a broadcast console," Bala recalls. "We wanted to radically re-imagine what an on-air studio would look like, including what to fit inside the studio and what to leave out. The studio environment would impact how the on-air talent uses the technology inside the studio with the new virtual console as its focal point.
"Our mandate to the interior designer was to create designs for three on-air studios that were minimalistic, stunning, functional and meet Noise Criteria (NC) rating 20. We wanted designs that would inspire our on-air talent to deliver compelling content on-air and on-line for today's radio."
The mixing requirements were all met by Lawo's Virtual Console, whose control surface is software, driven by a multi-touch interface on a high-resolution computer display, and which had been successfully the trialed in Astro Radio's news room. Without the limitations of physical knobs, buttons and faders, the screen presents users with only relevant controls and information, hiding anything not needed for the task at hand.
Along with screen brightness and reliability – which the Virtual Console comfortably addressed – operational flexibility and cost had ranked high among Astro Radio's concerns. "A great advantage of the Virtual Console is the cost-savings over physical consoles – there is no need to stock-up on console spare parts and accessories. It is also aesthetically more pleasing to the eyes, and gentle on the hands," Bala says.
"In addition to the standard Virtual Console control features, Lawo's VisTool-PC also shows all the virtual modules of both touchscreens – a user can control all channels, faders and buttons on the touchscreen from the VisTool-PC interface."
Astro Radio's on-air talent is drawn from established online personalities with huge followings, allowing it to grow its radio listenership through on-line streaming and on social media platforms, as well as FM broadcasts. Presenters are not necessarily conversant with broadcast technology, however.
"Content managers expect new on-air talent to quickly build momentum, and get up to speed with listeners on social media regularly during their shifts – every day. There is very little time for training or familiarization with the technology in the studio," Bala confirms. "The Virtual Console, therefore, had to be very simple and intuitive to use for first-timers."
Use of the Virtual Console also offers a faster software development cycle: "We are able to develop new features and functionality both for default and user-specific snapshots. We can easily customize the console layout – or skins – re-design and re-size fader and button shapes and colors, incorporate macros and GPIO signaling. This flexibility gives us the freedom to explore new possibilities in console design paradigm. For example, we added more channel faders per screen and moved monitoring controls to a pop-up screen.
"We took a huge risk by implementing fully touchscreen Virtual Consoles, but from the faces of our on-air talent and their content managers, our 'high-stakes' gamble has paid off handsomely," Bala concludes.

CIA secrecy
Was NYT Reporter Researching Psychotronic Weapons Murdered?
Published on June 12, 2016 June 12, 2016 by
In February this year, reports emerged that the former New York Times reporter Sarah Kershaw had been found dead in the Dominican Republic. Police initially said that the 49-year-old had died from asphyxiation. Officials had investigated Kershaw's husband, William Norton, for causing the death of his wife by strangulation.
Kershaw had been a reporter for the New York Times from 2000 to 2011. She had also reported for the Newsday publication and, at the time of her death, was a freelance writer. Kershaw's body was found at her apartment in Sosua, where she had moved with her husband in 2014.
Sarah Kershaw first came to prominence when she wrote (1) an article for the New York Times in 2008, titled: 'Sharing Their Demons on the Web'. The article is centered on mind-control techniques and the devastating impact they can have. In the article, Kershaw made some bold statements about the act of mind-control and those involved in it, writing:
"For people who regularly visit and write message boards on the mind-control sites, the idea that others would describe the sites as promoting delusional and psychotic thinking is simply evidence of a cover-up of the truth."
Ms. Kershaw had exposed MKUltra (2), often referred to as the CIA's mind-control program, which was an illegal program involving humans being subjected to experiments, designed and carried out by the CIA.
Could it be that Kershaw's attempt to uncover the truth about psychotronic warfare and mind-control techniques was what instigated her death?
Psychotronic Weapons
At the time Sarah Kershaw wrote the article for the New York Times, the use of psychotronic warfare, the process of using non-lethal weapons which emit electromagnetic frequencies and target the central nervous system, leading to disruptions in the normal activity of the brain, was illegal against US citizens.
According to a report in the Abreu Report (3), in 2013 the legality involving mind-control weapons and techniques in America changed when the National Defense Authorization Act 2013 was passed. The report refers a document obtained by FoxNews.com, which describes a program established by the US government involving the hiring of what is known as a 'Behavioral Insights Team'.
The document was emailed by White House senior adviser on social and behavioral sciences, Maya Shankar, to a university professor with a request that the paper was sent to those interested in joining the team.
The essence of the 'Behavioral Insights Team' was that it was designed to "Subtly influence people's behavior" by experimenting with various techniques. Such mind-control techniques would tweak the behavior of humans.
The news about the federal government's 'Behavioral Insights Team', created opposition, with (4) critics warning unintended consequences of such policies could arise.
As well as speaking out about controversial practices involving mind-control techniques, the suggestion has been made that Sarah Kershaw may have been investigating a secret new power plant in the Dominican Republic.
The Abreu Report wrote that "speculation was rife" as to what the former New York Times reporter Sarah Kershaw had been investigating in the Dominican Republic.
The report talks of the construction of two power plants in the Dominican Republic and how it has been suggested that the building of the two plants are a cover for the development of a "secretive third facility". According to the Abreu Report, details of the third facility were "negotiated in secret" between the Dominican government and the Pinergy Commercial Group.
Hidden Contract
Dominican Today (5) describes the Pinergy Commercial Group as jumping from an unknown plastics company to the subject of another Dominican government scandal with a "hidden contract."
Major equipment from New York which had been built by General Electric, the defense contractor of the Pentagon, had arrived at the Punta Catalina facility, states the Abreu Report. Furthermore, the documents involving the equipment sent by General Electric to the secretive third plant had been "heavily classified" by the Dominican government.
An anonymous source, who claimed to be affiliated with INFOTEP, the Dominican government's militarized technician-training division, told the Abreu Report that Sarah Kershaw had inquired about the exact nature of the equipment sent to the Dominican Republican plant by General Electric's research factories in New York. Ms. Kershaw, had apparently inquired as to whether the equipment and facility were related to psychotronic warfare.
There is speculation among some Dominican groups that the equipment did not actually come from New York, but was sent from a secret Pentagon research center," writes the Abreu Report.
Could it be that the investigative journalist had found something out about the secretive Dominican facility? Government Slaves certainly thinks that is a viable possibility, writing:
Is it possible that Ms Kershaw stumbled upon some new information that made her dangerous? Considering the speed at which the capabilities of psychotronic weapons have improved, the possibility is extremely high" (6).

Tag: PowerShell
REVISE: msdos VS powershell VS cmd VS windows script host VS powershell core VS console-.net
Windows Script Host:
The Microsoft Windows Script Host (WSH) (formerly named Windows Scripting Host) is an automation technology for Microsoft Windows operating systems that provides scripting abilities comparable to batch files, but with a wider range of supported features. This tool was first provided on Windows 95 after Build 950a on the installation discs as an optional installation configurable and installable by means of the Control Panel, and then a standard component of Windows 98 (Build 1111) and subsequent and Windows NT 4.0 Build 1381 and by means of Service Pack 4. The WSH is also a means of automation for Internet Explorer via the installed WSH engines from IE Version 3.0 onwards; at this time VBScript became means of automation for Microsoft Outlook 97.[1] The WSH is also an optional install provided with a VBScript and JScript engine for Windows CE 3.0 and following and some third-party engines including Rexx and other forms of Basic are also available.[2] [3] [4]
It is language-independent in that it can make use of different Active Scripting language engines. By default, it interprets and runs plain-text JScript (.JS and .JSE files) and VBScript (.VBS and .VBE files).
Users can install different scripting engines to enable them to script in other languages, for instance PerlScript. The language independent filename extension WSF can also be used. The advantage of the Windows Script File (.WSF) is that it allows the user to use a combination of scripting languages within a single file.
WSH engines include various implementations for the Rexx, BASIC, Perl, Ruby, Tcl, PHP, JavaScript, Delphi, Python, XSLT, and other languages.
Windows Script Host is distributed and installed by default on Windows 98 and later versions of Windows. It is also installed if Internet Explorer 5 (or a later version) is installed. Beginning with Windows 2000, the Windows Script Host became available for use with user login scripts.
Windows Script Host may be used for a variety of purposes, including logon scripts, administration and general automation. Microsoft describes it as an administration tool.[5] WSH provides an environment for scripts to run – it invokes the appropriate script engine and provides a set of services and objects for the script to work with.[5] These scripts may be run in either GUI mode (WScript.exe) or command line mode (CScript.exe) offering flexibility to the user for interactive or non-interactive scripts.[6] Windows Management Instrumentation is also scriptable by this means.
The WSH, the engines, and related functionality are also listed as objects which can be accessed and scripted and queried by means of the VBA and Visual Studio object explorers and those for similar tools like the various Script Debuggers and Editors. Conversely, VBA is a third WSH engine installed by default.
WSH implements an object model which exposes a set of Component Object Model (COM) interfaces.[7] So in addition to ASP, IIS, Internet Explorer, CScript and WScript, the WSH can be used to automate and communicate with any Windows application with COM and other exposed objects, such as using PerlScript to query Microsoft Access by various means including various ODBCengines and SQL, ooRexxScript to create what are in effect Rexx macros in Excel, Quattro Pro, Microsoft Word, Lotus Notes and any of the like, the XLNT script to get environment variables and print them in a new TextPad document, The VBA functionality of Microsoft Office, Open Office(as well as Python and other installable macro languages) and Corel WordPerfect Office is separate from WSH engines although Outlook 97 uses VBScript rather than VBA as its macro language.[8]
Python in the form of ActiveState PythonScript can be used to automate and query the data in SecureCRT, as with other languages with installed engines, e.g. PerlScript, ooRexxScript, PHPScript, RubyScript, LuaScript, XLNT and so on. One notable exception is Paint Shop Pro, which can be automated in Python by means of a macro interpreter within the PSP programme itself rather than using the PythonScript WSH engine or an external Python implementation such as Python interpreters supplied with Unix emulation and integration software suites or other standalone Python implementations et al.[9][10] as an intermediate and indeed can be programmed like this even in the absence of any third-party Python installation; the same goes for the Rexx-programmable terminal emulator Passport.[11] The SecureCRT terminal emulator, SecureFX FTP client, and related client and server programmes from Van Dyke are as of the current versions automated by means of the WSH so any language with an installed engine may be used; the software comes with VBScript, JScript, and PerlScript examples.
As of the most recent releases and going back a number of versions now, the programmability of Take Command and 4NT in the latest implementations (by means of "@REXX" and similar for Perl, Python, Tcl, Ruby, Lua, VBScript, JScript and the like and so on) generally uses the WSH engine.[12] The ZOC terminal emulator gets its ability to be programmed in Rexx by means of an external interpreter, one of which is supplied with the programme, and alternate Rexx interpreters can be specified in the configuration of the programme.[13][14] The MKS Toolkit provides PScript, a WSH engine in addition to the standard Perl intepreter perl.exe which comes with the package.
VBScript, JScript, and some third-party engines have the ability to create and execute scripts in an encoded format which prevents editing with a text editor; the file extensions for these encoded scripts is .vbe and .jse and others of that type.
Unless otherwise specified, any WSH scripting engine can be used with the various Windows server software packages to provide CGI scripting. The current versions of the default WSH engines and all or most of the third party engines have socket abilities as well; as a CGI script or otherwise, PerlScript is the choice of many programmers for this purpose and the VBScript and various Rexx-based engines are also rated as sufficiently powerful in connectivity and text-processing abilities to also be useful. This also goes for file access and processing—the earliest WSH engines for VBScript and JScript do not since the base language did not,[15] whilst PerlScript, ooRexxScript, and the others have this from the beginning.
WinWrap Basic, SaxBasic and others are similar to Visual Basic for Applications, These tools are used to add scripting and macro abilities to software being developed and can be found in earlier versions of Host Explorer for example. Many other languages can also be used in this fashion. Other languages used for scripting of programmes include Rexx, Tcl, Perl, Python, Ruby, and others which come with methods to control objects in the operating system and the spreadsheet and database programmes.[16] One exception is that the Zoc terminal emulator is controlled by a Rexx interpreter supplied with the package or another interpreter specified by the user; this is also the case with the Passport emulator.
VBScript is the macro language in Microsoft Outlook 97, whilst WordBasic is used for Word up to 6, Powerpoint and other tools. Excel to 5.0 uses Visual Basic 5.0. In Office 2000 forward, true Visual Basic for Applications 6.0 is used for all components. Other components use Visual Basic for Applications. OpenOffice uses Visual Basic, Python, and several others as macro languages and others can be added. LotusScript is very closely related to VBA and used for Lotus Notes and Lotus SmartSuite, which includes Lotus Word Pro (the current descendent of Ami Pro), Lotus Approach, Lotus FastSite, Lotus 1·2·3, &c and pure VBA licensed from Microsoft is used Corel products such as WordPerfect, Paradox, Quattro Pro &c.
Any scripting language installed under Windows can be accessed by external means of PerlScript, PythonScript, VBScript and the other engines available can be used to access databases (Lotus Notes, Microsoft Access, Oracle, Paradox) and spreadsheets (Microsoft Excel, Lotus 1·2·3, Quattro Pro) and other tools like word processors, terminal emulators, command shells and so on. This can be accomplished by means of the WSH, so any language can be used if there is an installed engine.
In recent versions of the Take Command enhanced command prompt and tools, the "script" command typed at the shell prompt will produce a list of the currently installed engines, one to a line and therefore CR-LF delimited.[17][18][19]
The first example is very simple; it shows some VBScript which uses the root WSH COM object "WScript" to display a message with an 'OK' button. Upon launching this script the CScript or WScript engine would be called and the runtime environment provided.
Content of a file hello0.vbs
WScript.Echo "Hello world"
WScript.Quit
WSH programming can also use the JScript language.
Content of a file hello1.js
WSH.Echo("Hello world");
WSH.Quit();
Or, code can be mixed in one WSF file, such as VBScript and JScript, or any other:
Content of a file hello2.wsf
<job>
MsgBox "hello world (from vb)"
WSH.echo("hello world (from js)");
</job>
Security concerns[edit]
Windows applications and processes may be automated using a script in Windows Script Host. Viruses and malware could be written to exploit this ability. Thus, some suggest disabling it for security reasons.[20] Alternatively, antivirus programs may offer features to control .vbs and other scripts which run in the WSH environment.
Since version 5.6 of WSH, scripts can be digitally signed programmatically using the Scripting.Signer object in a script itself, provided a valid certificate is present on the system. Alternatively, the signcode tool from the Platform SDK, which has been extended to support WSH filetypes, may be used at the command line.[21]
By using Software Restriction Policies introduced with Windows XP, a system may be configured to execute only those scripts which are stored in trusted locations, have a known MD5 hash, or have been digitally signed by a trusted publisher, thus preventing the execution of untrusted scripts.[22]
Available scripting engines[edit]
Note: By definition, all of these scripting engines can be utilised in CGI programming under Windows with any number of programmes and set up, meaning that the source code files for a scipt used on a server for CGI purposes could bear other file extensions such as .cgi and so on. The aforementioned ability of the Windows Script Host to run a script with multiple languages in it in files with a .wsh extension. Extended Html and XML also add to the additional possibilities when working with scripts for network use, as do Active Server Pages and so forth. Moreover, Windows shell scripts and scripts written in shells with enhanced capabilities like TCC, 4NT etc. and Unix shells under interoperability software like the MKS Toolkit can have scripts embedded in them as well.

There have been suggestions of creating engines for other languages, such as LotusScript, SaxBasic, BasicScript, KiXtart, awk, bash, csh and other Unix shells, 4NT, cmd.exe (the Windows NT shell), Windows PowerShell, DCL, C, C++, Fortran and others.[25] The XLNT language[26] is based on DCL and provides a very large subset of the language along with additional commands and statements and the software can be used in three ways: the WSH engine (*.xcs), the console interpreter (*.xlnt) and as a server and client side CGI engine (*.xgi).[27]
When a server implementing CGI such as the Windows Internet Information Server, ports of Apache and others, all or most of the engines can be used; the most commonly used are VBScript, JScript, PythonScript, PerlScript, ActivePHPScript, and ooRexxScript. The MKS Toolkit PScript programme also runs Perl. Command shells like cmd.exe, 4NT, ksh, and scripting languages with string processing and preferably socket functionality are also able to be used for CGI scripting; compiled languages like C++, Visual Basic, and Java can also be used like this. All Perl interpreters, ooRexx, PHP, and more recent versions of VBScript and JScript can use sockets for TCP/IP and usually UDP and other protocols for this.

What is the difference between CMD and Powershell?
On the first look PowerShell is pretty similar to cmd. They are both used to run external programs like ping or copy, and give you way to automate tasks by writing a script/batch file.
But PowerShell is a lot more than that.
First of all it provides a very rich set of commands (calleds cmdlets) that integrate deeply with windows and most of Microsoft products. Cmdlets like Get-Process which lists active processes.
Another big difference is that the output of this command is not just text, it's collection of objects. This is way superior to outputting just text, because you can easily query any property of the object, like its name or memory consumption. In cmd you'd have to parse the output.
Another great thing about PowerShell is its integration with .NET. You can easily use all the classes defined in .NET to program any functionality cmdlets are missing.
You can also integrate the powershell runtime into .NET applications with ease and consume Output PowerShell obkects directly.
All in all, PowerShell is cmd on steroids that let'a you automate and manage Windows more easily.
The simple answer is that PowerShell is object-oriented, and cmd.exe is string-based. But that's glossing over the "why is this not just different, but BETTER?", which is the underlying question.
PSH can create .NET objects on the shell and allow the user to interact with them.
I can, interactively, open an XML file, browse into it using DOM (ParentNode.ChildNode.ChildNode.Attribute), using XPath (SelectSingleNode("//host"), or [XML] class methods (GetParentNode()), edit it with $xml.CreateElement()/$node.AppendChild(), save it, and fire up in Visual Studio. Interactively.
Normally, I would have to write a program to do it, compile it, run it, (wait for it to bomb out), and then manually open the file in VS.
I can write a script to fire up a new Internet Explorer, have it navigate to a URL, then start filling out fields in forms and expand dynamic content (with great difficulty) using COM automation. Or do the same thing in Excel – take a CSV file, dump it into Excel, reformat it (this table style, add these formulas, that column width) and save it.
I can resize the console window. Or change the title. Or increase the buffer (really? Only 300 lines by default?) Or copy the contents of the buffer, complete with colors.
CMD is the older "shell" or "batch" language going back in some form (command.com) to the original DOS operating system.
PowerShell is the new and vastly improved shell and programming language first made available as an add-on and now included (and now enabled) in the Windows operating systems.
While CMD is technically a "programming language" it is a very poor one where it is difficult to define general purpose variables, assign those values, and to use modern control structures.
For example CMD includes "if/then/else", call (subrouting label or batch file), and an odd form of "for" (really a "foreach") loop but other than that is largely dependent on "goto" while PowerShell has a excellent flow of control structures.
PowerShell was designed to off an EFFECTIVE superset of CMD functionality which it come close to doing directly AND it can call CMD for anything that isn't available directly.
PowerShell supports not only calling CMD as an "external program" but calling any other pre-existing or new program as an external extension to its own functionality.
PowerShell has direct access to almost all of DOTNET, and easy access to COM and even C#, F# and other DOTNET languages.
PowerShell passes and returns OBJECTS (structured data with methods, events, and properties) to other commands and returns these objects from most commands as well while CMD produces only text.
This idea of 'objects' is extremely important as is removes the need to "parse" results based on line position or characters on the lines – -instead one merely queries the objects for the properties available.
PowerShell also now includes LITERALLY THOUSANDS of functions, cmdlets, and other funtionality and is extemely extensible.
PowerShells regular expressions are comparable to those in Perl, or perhaps arguably more powerful can capable. One of the main things about regular expresions in Perl is that besides being very extensive they are a NATURAL part of the language — PowerShell comes close to this ideal of integration established by Perl for regular expressions.
PowerShell includes extensive and excellent error handling.
PowerShell includes extensive, extensible, and excellent Help.
PowerShell's main deficiencies are these:
Not available by default on every version of WIndows still commonly in use (Win2003/XP
Not enabled even when present until the latest versions of Windows — Win2012 and Windows 8.
Cmd is an antiquated CLI that mainly executes console programs that live on your file system, and processes the output they provide as text. Powershell is an object oriented shell/programming language that processes objects. It uses a 'pipeline' approach, much like bash, except instead of processing text in the pipeline, it processes objects. This allows you to call upon that object's properties and methods, making it a very powerful tool to have in the toolset. It's a .NET language, so you can actually build full featured apps with it, like Windows Forms apps, WPF apps etc, as well as more traditional scripts.
Powershell can also invoke the same command line utilities that CMD does, such as ping or netstat, but it also has Cmdlets. Cmdlets are not console programs, but actually functions that either live inside compiled DLLs on your system, typically written in C#, or Powershell based functions that live inside Powershell modules.
Powershell can do everything CMD does and much, much more. In fact one of its primary purposes was to replace both CMD, batch files and vbScripts.
CMD is basically an updated version of DOS prompt. It's very simple, and its only commands are related to file management (which is not needed anymore as we have Windows Explorer), everything else is done by executing .exe files or other batch files which are made of the same commands. Powershell, on the other hand, is designed for automation. It has much more advanced commands which can often do what you can't do with CMD, or which is incredibly hard to do with it. For example, the command Add-AppxPackage installs a Windows Store application from an .appx file – that's called sideloading. This action is very complicated because of the nature of Windows Store apps, which are deeply itegrated with Windows Store and the shell itself. It can't be done with CMD at all.
Powershell also has a more advanced support for variables, objects, making it as powerful as other scripting languages. Batch is also technically a scripting language, but it only has very simple functionality: even loops need to be implemented using the "goto" command, which is one of the many things that make the code hard to read.
You can run CMD commands in Powershell, but not the opposite.
POwershell is much more powerful and allows a much more modern and sound scripting.
Then Powershell uses object, not strings.
In other words, you can take the output of a command and reuse it in other commands much more easily than how you'd do with a traditional CMD.
Then Powershell comes from C#, so it's much more powerful as a programming tool.
Just some additional information, since powershell is integrated with .net so you can do some inline c# with powershell to make it even more powerful which you can never have a chance with cmd prompt. Also it can start jobs to make parallel processing of different {script block}.
There's a fairly large difference between these two. At the end of the day, they both execute sequences of actions; PowerShell is an extreme evolution past CMD, much more in line with what a 'proper' shell should be.
PS is great for its integration with .NET.
roughly 30 years of progress in scripting languages.
Really, cmd has not any significant progress since the DOS era. It was replaced, first by Windows Scripting Host and now by powershell.
I seem to vaguely recall QBasic and earlier dialects.. not sure where those fit in. At least you could rename files across directories.
PowerShell has a pipeline based on typed .NET objects, while cmd (and most other command line processors, like Unix based shells, usually) have a pipeline based on strings of characters.
Command Prompt vs. PowerShell: What Are the Differences?
Being a Windows user, you don't have to deal with the command line interface for daily activities. That being said, for any advanced tasks the command line provides greater flexibility and control over the task. In fact, that's the sole reason why Windows has both the Command Prompt and PowerShell. Since both are command line interfaces, the PowerShell and Command Prompt may look similar at first glance. But there are significant differences between both of them. Let us get to know what PowerShell and Command Prompt actually mean and how PowerShell differs from Command Prompt.
What is Command Prompt
Command Prompt is the default command line interface provided by Microsoft starting from Windows NT (Windows NT 3.x and above). It is a simple win32 application that can interact and talk with any win32 objects in the Windows operating system. It has a user-friendly command structure and is widely used to execute batch files, troubleshoot Windows problems, perform advanced actions, get information, etc. Due to its user interface and command line structure, many call it "the DOS prompt," though it doesn't have anything to do with MS-DOS.
What Is PowerShell
The first version of PowerShell, which is based on the .NET framework, was released way back in 2006 and is much more advanced than the Command Prompt. PowerShell has many different advanced features like command piping, task automation, remote execution, etc.
On the other hand, PowerShell deeply integrates with the Windows operating system while still providing interactive command line interface and scripting language. Considering the deep integration and support for the scripting language, it is often used by system administrators and IT professionals to perform task automation and configuration management.
How PowerShell Differs from Command Prompt
The PowerShell is much more advanced in terms of features, capabilities and inner workings when compared to the legacy Command Prompt. In fact, almost every under-the-hood module of Windows can be exposed by PowerShell, thus making it a useful tool for IT professionals, system administrators, and power users.
When I say PowerShell, most of you may think of the standard command-line interface, but Windows also comes with PowerShell ISE (Integrated Scripting Environment) which helps you create custom and complex PowerShell scripts for all kinds of works.
Moreover, PowerShell uses what are known as cmdlets. These cmdlets can be invoked either in the runtime environment or in the automation scripts. Unlike the Command Prompt or even the *nix shell, the output generated from a cmdlet is not just a stream of text (strings) but a collection of objects.
Since PowerShell treats them as objects, the output can be passed as an input to other cmdlets through the pipeline. This allows you to manipulate the data as much as you want without seeking the help of complex Reg expressions. This is just not possible in the Command Prompt.
When you compare all this to the legacy Command Prompt, you will find it painfully inferior to the PowerShell in terms of both functionality and how much you can do with it.
But all this power of PowerShell comes at a cost; that is the learning curve. If you don't mind the steep learning curve, then do give PowerShell a try. Of course, if you are entering into the realm of system administration, then you definitely need to learn PowerShell to make your life easier.
If you are an average Windows user who hardly uses the Command Prompt, then you might not get much out of the PowerShell.
What problem did MS solve by creating PowerShell? [closed]
32down votefavorite
I'm asking because PowerShell confuses me.
I've been trying to write some deployment scripts using PowerShell and I've been less than enthused by the result. I have a co-worker who loves PowerShell and defends it at every turn. Said co-worker claims PowerShell was never written to be a strong shell, but instead was written to:
a) Allow you to peek and poke at .NET assemblies on the command-line (why is this a reason for PowerShell to exist?)
b) To be hosted in .NET applications for automation, similar to DCOP in KDE and how Gnome is using CORBA.
c) to be treated as ".NET script" rather than as an actual shell (related to b).
I've always felt like Windows was missing a decent way to bang out automation scripts. cmd is too simplistic in many cases, and WSH is too obtuse (although the combination can be used successfully, I'm not a fan). When I first heard about PowerShell I felt like Windows was finally getting a decent shell that would be able to help with automation of many tasks, but recent experiences, and my co-worker, tell me otherwise.
To be clear, I don't take issue with the fact that it's built on .NET, or that it passes objects around rather than text (despite my Unix background :]), and I'm not arguing that PowerShell is useless, but from what I can see, it doesn't solve the problem I was hoping it would solve very well. As soon as you step outside of the .NET/Powershell world, things quit being nice and cozy for you.
So with all that out of the way, what problem did MS solve by creating PowerShell, or is it some political bastard child as I suspect? I've googled and haven't hit upon anything that sufficiently answered that for me, but the more citations the better.
PowerShell was actually built as several things: A mature and extensible automation platform and a modern administration shell.
The former is primarily used for the administration GUIs for Exchange and other server products of recent times. The GUI is just a wrapper around PowerShell which does the heavy lifting behind (kind of like UNIX GUI programs come to be, as a wrapper for a commandline program).
Jeffrey Snover (PowerShell inventor) elaborates a little on how PowerShell was created with which goals and problems it should solve.
In my opinion, PowerShell as a shell is clearly intended as a replacement for cmd (easy to see) and Windows Script Host (Windows Script Host didn't get much attention in recent years, even though it had similar concepts as .NET back in its day [one platform, multiple languages with ActiveScripting], but with .NET Microsoft basically put that to rest and resurrection probably wasn't an option for them).
It unifies most aspects of Windows administration in common concepts and methods you only have to learn once. Also, the power in PowerShell for me stems greatly from it passing around objects which might explain why you get into problems when you step out of the .NET/PowerShell world where you only get a String[] from a command. But for many things you would call an external program for in cmd, there is a cmdlet which will do it for you.
As a developer, I can tell you I no longer have a bunch of ConsoleApplication42 projects laying around in a folder.
As a developer at a small company where I pretty much do all things IT (DBA, manipulate routers, pull call detail records from the switch, monitor and graph bandwidth for customers, etc…) I can tell you that PowerShell fills a sorely needed gap in Windows and the fact that it's built on .NET provides a seamless upgrade path when the PowerShell pipeline is too slow to handle millions of iterations or a more permanent, strongly typed implementation is needed.
Anyway, I guess the question is why are you switching to PowerShell if you don't have a pressing need? I mean it's good to learn it now since it's basically the new management interface for all things Microsoft. But if that doesn't affect you then don't bother if you don't think you're gaining anything.
EDIT (In response to comments below)
It sounds like you're trying to use the .NET Process class to launch an exe and redirect it's stdout so it can be read by the caller. I agree that is a pain in .NET but fortunately PowerShell does all this for you pretty simply. As for capturing the result and still writing it to the display, that's pretty simple too though the command isn't a very well-known one because it isn't used that often. Here's an example:
# I always find it easier to use aliases for external commands
Set-Alias csc C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v3.5\csc.exe
# Create some source file
Set-Content test.cs @"
static void Main() {
System.Console.WriteLine("Hello World");
# Call CSC.EXE
# the output of csc.exe is written to results.txt and piped
# to the host (or select-string if you prefer)
csc test.cs | Tee-Object -file results.txt
# Check for errors
if ($LASTEXITCODE) {
# this is where community extensions would come in
# handy. powershell 2.0 also has a command to send
# mail but in 1.0 you can grab one from poshcode.org
Disadvantages of Windows PowerShell
Windows PowerShell is a task-based command-line shell and scripting language designed especially for system administration that is used by information technology professionals on a regular basis. Although it is developed by Microsoft and is widely available, it does have some potential drawbacks that IT professionals may not appreciate. If you are learning how to use the language, issues could arise at some point.
Object-Based
One of the potential disadvantages of using Windows PowerShell is that it is object-based. With most shells, you rely on text-based commands to get the job done when writing scripts. If you switch to Windows PowerShell from some other type of shell, you'll have to get used to a different way of thinking about things. This can be a problem that takes some time to get past for some users.
Security Risks
Another potential drawback of using Windows PowerShell is that it can create some potential security risks. Many IT professionals use it as a way to connect remotely to other computers and servers. When engaging in this process, PowerShell can leave some holes open for security breaches. This creates a potential for viruses, malware or other harmful programs to be installed in the server. If someone else who knows Windows PowerShell gets involved, it could cause problems.
Another issue with Windows PowerShell is that it requires you to run a Web server on your server when utilizing remote functionality. This takes up additional space on a server. In many cases, companies will not want to take up more room and designate more resources to this on their own servers. If you are an IT professional working for a company, you may have to get approval from a higher-up before this is allowed.
Although Windows PowerShell does have some potential drawbacks, it also has a few advantages. For example, since it is developed by Microsoft, it is being integrated more and more into Microsoft products and services. Windows PowerShell is also versatile and easy to administrate once you learn the basics of the scripting language. It also gives you the ability to run specific commands that are designed to run only on local networks if you are using the remote connection function.
How PowerShell Differs From the Windows Command Prompt
Windows 7 added PowerShell, a more powerful command-line shell and scripting language than the Command Prompt. Since Windows 7, PowerShell has become more prominent, with it even becoming the default choice in Windows 10.
PowerShell is more complicated than the traditional Command Prompt, but it's also much more powerful. The Command Prompt is dramatically inferior to shells available for Linux and other Unix-like systems, but PowerShell competes favorably. In addition, most Command Prompt commands are usable in PowerShell, whether natively or through aliases.
How PowerShell Differs From the Command Prompt
RELATED: 5 Cmdlets to Get You Started with PowerShell
PowerShell is actually very different from the Command Prompt. It uses different commands, known as cmdlets in PowerShell. Many system administration tasks — from managing the registry to WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) — are exposed via PowerShell cmdlets, while they aren't accessible from the Command Prompt.
RELATED: Geek School: Learning How to Use Objects in PowerShell
PowerShell makes use of pipes—just as Linux does—that allow you to pass the output of one cmdlet to the input of another cmdlet. Thus, you can use multiple cmdlets in sequence to manipulate the same data. Unlike Unix-like systems—which can only pipe streams of characters (text)—PowerShell pipes objects between cmdlets. And pretty much everything in PowerShell is an object, including every response you get from a cmdlet. This allows PowerShell to share more complex data between cmdlets, operating more like a programming language.
PowerShell isn't just a shell. It's a powerful scripting environment you can use to create complex scripts for managing Windows systems much more easily than you could with the Command Prompt.
The Command Prompt is essentially just a legacy environment carried forward in Windows—an environment that copies all of the various DOS commands you would find on a DOS system. It is painfully limited, can't access many Windows system administration features, is more difficult to compose complex scripts with, and so on. PowerShell is a new environment for Windows system administrators that allows them to use a more modern command-line environment to manage Windows.
When You Would Want to Use PowerShell
So, when would an average Windows user want to use PowerShell?
RELATED: How To Troubleshoot Internet Connection Problems
If you only rarely fire up the Command Prompt to run the occasional ping or ipconfig command, you really don't need to touch PowerShell. If you're more comfortable sticking with Command Prompt, it's not going anywhere. That said, most of those commands work just fine in PowerShell, too, if you want to try it out.
RELATED: How to Batch Rename Multiple Files in Windows
However, PowerShell can be a much more powerful command-line environment than the Command Prompt. For example, we've shown you how to use the PowerShell environment built into Windows to perform a search-and-replace operation to batch rename multiple files in a folder—something that would normally require installing a third-party program. This is the sort of thing that Linux users have always been able to do with their command-line environment, while Windows users were left out.
However, PowerShell isn't like the Linux terminal. It's a bit more complicated, and the average Windows user might not see many benefits from playing with it.
System administrators will want to learn PowerShell so they can manage their systems more efficiently. And if you ever need to write a script to automate various system administration tasks, you should do it with PowerShell.
PowerShell Equivalents of Common Commands
Many common Command Prompt commands—from ipconfig to cd —work in the PowerShell environment. This is because PowerShell contains "aliases" that point these old commands at the appropriate new cmdlets, running the new cmdlets when you type the old commands.
We'll go over a few common Command Prompt commands and their equivalents in PowerShell anyway—just to give you an idea of how PowerShell's syntax is different.
Change a Directory
DOS: cd
PowerShell: Set-Location
List Files in a Directory
DOS: dir
PowerShell: Get-ChildItem
Rename a File
DOS: rename
PowerShell: Rename-Item
To see if a DOS command has an alias, you can use the Get-Alias cmdlet. For example, typing Get-Alias cd shows you that cd is actually running the Set-Location cmdlet.

Identify recently created user accounts that have not been used to access a web service in 14 days. I'm looking to filter on accounts with a blank LastLogonTimeStamp, and a whenCreated date of -14 days:
$TargetDate = Get-Date -Date (get-date).AddDays(-14)
$SearchBase = "OU=People,DC=my,DC=domain,DC=com"
$Filter = {(whenCreated -lt $TargetDate) -and (-not(lastLogonTimeStamp -like "*"))}
get-ADUser -Filter $Filter -SearchBase $SearchBase | Disable-ADAccount
The users who haven't changed their passwords in the last 90 days:
$90_Days = (Get-Date).adddays(-90)
Get-ADUser -filter {(passwordlastset -le $90_days)}
To see all users who last logged on before January 1, 2013, you could type:
get-aduser -f * | where {$_.lastlogondate -le "1 January 2013"}

Factor VIII binds to von Willebrand factor to form a complex. This complex stabilizes factor VIII, which otherwise has a very short half-life in the blood.
Factor VIII (Vehar et al. 1984) is a heterodimer containing a heavy and a light polypeptide chain, generated by the proteolytic cleavage of a single large precursor polypeptide. Several forms of the heavy chain are found in vivo, all functionally the same but differing in the amount of the B domain removed by proteolysis. The single form annotated here is the shortest one (Eaton et al. 1986; Hill-Eubanks et al. 1989).
In vitro, von Willebrand factor (Titani et al. 1986) can form complexes with factor VIII with a 1:1 stoichiometry. The complexes that form in vivo, however, involve large multimers of von Willebrand factor and varied, but always low, proportions of factor VIII (Vlot et al. 1995). A stoichiometry of one molecule of factor VIII associated with 50 of von Willebrand factor is typical in vivo, and is used here to annotate the factor VIII:von Willebrand factor complex.

Constatly learning and making mistakes, in work with young people, Theology, and in life.
I have been working with young people since 1996. Since that time I have worked on behalf of verious agencies both church (voluntary) and staturary sector. I like working with young people and also working with staff. My academic research includes my masters project, looking at youth workers use computer games and how they take advantage of the ethics entwined with computer games use. A key element of my research was my growing appreciation of the effectiveness of play. Currently I am researching how current youth work staff, of a church, think about their youth work. To achieve this I am aiming to reflect the parish system (geography) as they interogate their area of work and aimig to use Podcasting as a methodology(!). I have a Masters in Theology from the University of Glasgow, as well as degrees in Youth Work with from International Chrsitian College, and Community Education from Strathclyde University as well as being a time served welder currently certified by E.C.I.T.B. I am a member of ISAYM, AMYE, AAR, and the SST.
