Q: What are ways to figure out how old my computer is? What are ways to figure out how old my computer is?

A: Depending on your BIOS, you may have a date that it was installed on the system, this is essentially the "birth date" of your computer. I think most IBM clone machines (ie. non-mac) use Phoenix BIOS now, the date is the very last line on the POST screen.
If you are using Windows, this will also work (it says Win2k, but it works on XP): HOW TO: Determine BIOS Date on a Computer Running Windows 2000

A: If your computer was purchased from one of the major PC manufacturers (ie: Dell) then you can type in your service tag/serial number to find out when the computer was purchased.
As others have mentioned, this doesn't take into account any newer upgrades or pieces installed post-purchase, but would give you a good place to start with.

A: There is no definite way know when was the first time someone booted the machine , but what you can do is download CPU-Z and check the motherboard model no.
Then find its release date and if you can get the date for when the manufacturer stopped making the model you have a date range for the machine  .
Usually people don't really change the motherboard so this is your best bet .
In case you are using a branded machine you can always contact the manufacturer with the machine's serial number and they might provide you the manufacturing date.

A: Are you running Windows? Go to command prompt and enter "systeminfo | more".  Then look for the line items that have Original Install Date for when the OS was installed, system manufacturer, system model, processor type, BIOS version, etc.  Depending on exactly why you want to know how old your computer is, the above information should be able to provide it or a sufficient enough answer by getting further information from the manufacturer (e.g.  processor was initially released in Month/Year).

A: If you have not reinstalled windows, you can always run:
wmic os get installdate

A: On Apple machines it seems to be a matter of analyzing the Serial Number, as seen in Ask Different's Where to find factory list in Apple serial number:

Original article that contains the image at the Internet Archive: How do I decipher the entire Apple serial number on my Mac? What does it mean?

A: Download & install a program called Soluto. I have used it for the past couple of years since it was created, initially to select which programs start up at boot, thereby reducing boot time. Since being first introduced it keeps adding new features.
One of the features is that it tells me how old my computer is.

We read a very insightful article in this newspaper titled- "8 years, 8,000 lives: JK's roads bigger killers than conflict." According to the article, around 8000 people have been killed in road accidents in mere eight years in our state. The number of road accidents during the same time has been a staggering 52,232.
A little math shows that out of every 100 cars on our roads, 4 will potentially meet with an accident. This is by no means an insignificant number. A little thought for the 8000 lives lost, of the 8000 families who've had to cope with this loss and all its repercussions is frightening and haunting.
Perhaps the only good thing about road accidents is that they're preventable to a large extent. Seemingly, small actions can make all the difference between life and death. For instance, how many of us wear seat belts every time we drive? Seat belts, of course, do not prevent accidents but they minimize the injuries accidents cause. We've all seen countless advertisements about the importance of wearing seat belts, yet very few of us actually wear it.
Another thing people take for granted are speed limits. Almost every road has a specified speed limit and almost no one cares to abide by it. What we don't realise is that speed limits are there for a purpose – they've been carefully calculated, not simply put there on someone's whim. The very popular maxim, speed thrills but it also kills, couldn't be truer. Driving within speed limits may be a test of one's patience but it's a reward in itself because it ensures the safety of both the driver and pedestrians around.
A very frequent sight on our roads is a motor cycle with three or unbelievably, four people crammed on it. The driver may or (usually) may not be wearing a helmet, while the others are in constant danger with nothing to protect them if the worst happens. It's not uncommon to see little children being ridden around so.
Another issue which is becoming increasingly important and dangerous is underage driving. Parents, educated or otherwise, have no qualms about letting their children drive even when they're legally underage. The risks involved are not at all a deterrent. Such minors can not only harm themselves but are also a threat to others. Driving is a very big responsibility that an underage kid cannot be reasonably expected to.
There are also people who make public roads their driving schools, taking to the road even when they can't drive yet; hoping to learn driving as they go along. Such people can only be said to be reckless and selfish; endangering both life and property. Of course, there is no dearth of rules and regulations. But people simply don't bother to follow them. Traffic lights are in the interest of all but a lot of drivers are too impatient to wait even a minute for their turn. The fact however is that the most horrific accidents happen when vehicles jump signals.
One can't always blame the driver's ignorance and haste. More often than not, careless pedestrians crossing roads or walking recklessly put themselves in harm's way. Perhaps the most commonly flouted traffic rule is talking on the phone while driving. Indeed people even text while driving! This is such a common occurrence that a lot of people don't even consider it to be dangerous and wrong. They forget that a moment's distraction could cost someone's life. Distracted driving, maybe the driver is drowsy or the music is too loud, can lead to ill-fated consequences. Such accidents can be averted with caution and concentration. Of course even the most vigilant drivers can meet with accidents because of the countless potholes and in-adequate street light. Government spending on the upkeep of public roads has to increase as it can save numerous lives.
In this conversation, we cannot neglect the duty of by-standers. Once an accident has occurred it is the duty of all people around to come forward and help the victims. The 'golden hour' may make all the difference between life and death for someone. Help within this hour ensures a greater chance of survival and reduction in the severity of the injuries.
The Supreme Court of India in its order dated 19 Feb 2004 has made it mandatory to all medical professionals to attend all road traffic accident victim without raising any objection that it is a medico-legal case requiring information to the police authorities. Whether or not such a person is immediately in a position to make payment for screening and emergency medical treatment, Whether or not such a person has medical insurance or is a member of any medical scheme of the person's employer or to a scheme which otherwise provides for medical reimbursement and without raising any other unreasonable objection.
Revising policies on controlling vehicle speed, developing traffic-calming measures, restricting vehicle traffic in residential areas, building sidewalks, enforcing traffic laws, pedestrianizing city centres, installing pedestrian signals, pedestrian safety in roadway design are some measures to control this menace.
A little prudence, a little action and a little empathy is all it'll take to bring down the number of deaths in accidents and make our roads safer.
Come Indian elections, the bogey of Pakistan has overwhelmed the nationalist discourse in the shrillest manner, with the Prime Minister and other Ministers' relentless branding of the Congress/Opposition as 'anti-national' and as 'agents of Pakistan'. Further, the Prime Minister even made an unprecedented threat of using nuclear weapons against Pakistan.
As a country born of the two-nation theory based on religion, and then having to suffer dismemberment and the consequent damage to the very same religious identity, it is obvious why Islamic Pakistan must have a hostile Other in the form of a 'Hindu India'. But what is not obvious is why India, a (much larger) secular nation, must have a hostile antagonist in the form of Pakistan.
It is widely recognised that the fulcrum of the Pakistani state and establishment is an anti-India ideology and an obsession with India. But what has scarcely received notice is that India's post-Independence nationalism has been equally driven by an obsession with Pakistan. Of course, this obsession acquires a pathological dimension under regimes, like the present one, which thrive on hyper-nationalism and a 'Hindu India' identity.
But, this hyper-nationalistic urge to 'defeat' Pakistan and to gloat over every victory, both real and claimed, is ultimately self-defeating, and comes with huge human and material costs. Much of these costs are hidden by jingoism masquerading as nationalism.
Words often used regarding the Pakistani state's actions, even by critical Pakistani voices, are 'delusional' and 'suicidal', and rightly so. For, no level-headed state would seek to attain military parity with a country that is six and half times larger in population, and eight and a half times bigger economically. HussainHaqqani, the Pakistani diplomat and scholar, compared it to "Belgium rivalling France or Germany". Pakistan's vastly disproportionate spending on the military has been self-destructive for a poor nation.
In 1990, Pakistan was ahead of India by three places in the Human Development Index. In 2017, Pakistan was behind India by 20 ranks, a sad reflection of its ruinous policies.
More critically, the Pakistani state's sponsorship of Islamist terror groups has been nothing less than catastrophic. What the world, including India, does not recognise is that Pakistan, ironically, is also one of the worst victims of Islamist terrorism. In the period 2000-2019, 22,577 civilians and 7,080 security personnel were killed in terrorism-related violence in Pakistan (the number of civilian/security personnel deaths from Islamist terrorism in India, excluding Jammu and Kashmir, was 926 in during 2000-2018).
The fact that Pakistan has suffered much more than India in their mutual obsession cannot hide the equally serious losses that India has undergone and is willing to undergo in its supposedly muscular pursuit of a 'no dialogue' policy with Pakistan.
Wars and military competition produce madness. Nothing exemplifies this more than India-Pakistan attempts to secure the Siachen Glacier, the inhospitable and highest battle terrain in the world. India alone lost nearly 800 soldiers (until 2016) to weather-related causes only. Besides, it spends around ?6 crore every day in Siachen. Operation Parakram (2001-02), in which India mobilised for war with Pakistan, saw 798 soldier deaths and a cost of $3 billion. This is without fighting a war. Add to this the human and economic costs of fighting four wars.
Granted, the proponents of India's muscular nationalism who want only a military solution in Kashmir might close their eyes to the killings of some 50,000 Kashmiri civilians and the unending suffering of Kashmiris, but can they, as nationalists, ignore, the deaths of around 6,500 security personnel in Kashmir and the gargantuan and un-estimated costs of stationing nearly 5 lakh military/para-military/police personnel in Kashmir for 30 years?
Ten years ago, Stephen P. Cohen, the prominent American scholar of South Asia, called the India-Pakistan relationship "toxic" and notably termed both, and not just Pakistan, as suffering from a "minority" or "small power" complex in which one is feeling constantly "threatened" and "encircled". Tellingly, he argues that it is the disastrous conflict with Pakistan that has been one of the main reasons why India has been confined to South Asia, and prevented from becoming a global power.
Of course, emulating China need not mean emulating its internal authoritarianism or its almost colonial, external economic expansionism. On the contrary, it is to learn from China's early success in universalising health care and education, providing basic income, and advancing human development, which as AmartyaSen has argued, is the basis of its economic miracle. It is precisely here that India has failed, and is continuing to fail.
Therefore, despite India being one of the fastest growing major economies in the world since 1991 (yet, only ranked 147 in per capita income in 2017), its social indicators in many areas, including health, education, child and women welfare, are abysmal in comparison with China's. Worryingly, in the focus on one-upmanship with Pakistan, India's pace in social indicator improvement has been less than some poorer economies too. The phenomenal strides made by Bangladesh in the social sector are an example.
Here, a look at the military expenditures is revealing: while India spent $63.9 billion (2017) and Pakistan $9.6 billion (2018-19), Bangladesh spent only $3.45 billion (2018-19). Only a muscular and masculine nationalism can take pride in things such as becoming the fifth largest military spender in the world, or being the world's second largest arms importer. The bitter truth hidden in these details is that India, ranked 130 in the HDI (and Pakistan, 150), simply cannot afford to spend scarce resources on nuclear arsenals, maintaining huge armies or developing space weapons. Besides, in an increasingly globalised world, military resolution between a nuclear India and Pakistan is almost impossible.
The more India, the largest democracy in the world, defines itself as the Other of Pakistan, a nation practically governed by the military, the more it will become its mirror. Any nation that thrives by constructing a mythical external enemy must also construct mythical internal enemies. That is why the number of people labelled 'anti-national' is increasing in India. India has to rise to take its place in the world. That place is not being a global superpower, but being the greatest and most diverse democracy in the world. That can only happen if it can get rid of its obsession with Pakistan.
BJP president Amit Shah is technically correct to say that SadhviPragya Thakur, one of the accused in the September 2008 Malegaon (Maharashtra) bomb blast case, who is on bail, has a right, under our liberal electoral laws, to contest the elections. It hardly matters that she voluntarily claimed being part of the Hindutava forces which had pulverised the Babri Masjid on December 6, 1992 and that an FIR has been registered against her by the Madhya Pradesh police on the orders of the Election Commission.
A galaxy of BJP leaders headed by Lal Krishna Advani, who went on to become deputy prime minister, and Hindutava firebrands Version 1 from the 1990s era — SadhviRithambra, VinayKatiar, Hari Vishnu Dalmia, et al — were criminally indicted for conspiracy but let off by a CBI special court in 2001. The Allahabad high court upheld the order of acquittal in 2010. But curiously, the Supreme Court directed that the case be revived in April 2017, under the NarendraModi government.
To be honest, there was little reason, back then, not to indict both Kalyan Singh, the BJP chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, and P.V. Narasimha Rao, the Congress Prime Minister. Culpability for dereliction of duty runs deep and inefficiencies in the judicial system help gaming transgressors.
Our laws consequently acknowledge this judicial gap and do not bar a candidate from political office, even though serious criminal charges have been drawn up in court against the person and a trial is under way.
But that does not fully explain why the BJP chose her. After all, Bhopal is not just any other seat. It is the capital of Madhya Pradesh and she has been pitted against Digvijay Singh, a former chief minister of the state and a senior Congress leader.
More to the point, isn't she out of sync with the BJP government's soothing signature tune of "Sabkasaath, sabkavikas" (with everyone, for everyone)? Does this signal a major change in stance and hitherto is revisionist social policy likely to overshadow the imperative for economic growth?
Pragya Thakur has no qualms about evoking her mystical powers to "damn" (curse) her opponents, demonstrating a conflation between her private well-being and that of all Hindus — a distinction which is necessary in those holding public office. But ascetics and mystics live by the code of "bhakti" — a submersive ecosystem, in which the followers are one with the guru. This leaves no space for the rule of earthly, common law.
Bhakts believe the spiritual power of an ascetic's curse causes irreparable harm. Such pervasive, blind faith begs the question — should India have lawmakers who exult in evoking their spiritual powrs to shield themselves from the law?
Given these rough edges, what compelled the Modi-Shah team to field SadhviPragya from Bhopal? Two motivations suggest themselves.
First, electoral strength breeds hubris. Nominating Pragya Thakur sends the message that a new, assertively Hindu India is on its way and those with different views should make way.
Hinduism is resilient because it absorbs and subsumes other beliefs. Think Tamil Nadu 70 years ago. Anti-Brahmanism, rationalism and primacy for Tamil culture and language — versus Hindi — drove the atheist Dravida movement to its peak. Today, with political power firmly with the Tamil middle castes, ritualistic Hinduism is resurgent in Tamil Nadu.
Hinduism facilitates Sanskritisation — a religious version of the Stockholm syndrome, where the marginalised empathise with and seek to emulate their oppressors, thereby perpetuating the status quo.
Even the Congress Party has succumbed. The symbols of ritualistic Hinduism — special prayers at temples and endorsements from Hindu religious leaders — are the norm. This is canny, since Muslims and Christians have nowhere else to go, at the national level — though the BahujanSamaj Party and the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh; Trinamul Congress in West Bengal; TelanganaRashtraSamiti in Hyderabad, the Communists in Kerala and the AamAdmi Party in Delhi offer classically secular, regional alternatives.
An alternative driver behind Pragya Thakur's nomination could be sheer desperation, in the absence of a NarendraModi wave, unlike 2014. After all, the party lost Madhya Pradesh along with two other cow belt states to the Congress only a few months ago during the state Assembly elections. Fielding the Sadhvi is sure to rake up Hindu resentment against the Congress for subscribing to a counter narrative of "Hindu terror" around the 2008 bomb blasts. The credibility of our police agencies has sunk so low that in the public's perception, the "caged parrot" syndrome of ruling party capture, overrides the merits of any police action.
But multiple poll surveys, thus far, do not validate significant electoral loss for the BJP. The most recent endorsement comes from SurjitBhalla's new book Citizen Raj: Indian Elections 1952-2019. He forecasts a simple majority of 274 for the BJP on its own. Lord Meghnad Desai, a British peer of Indian origin, also endorses a clear win.
NarendraModi is no one's tool. Were he to succeed, his game would be to tame the tiger that he is riding. This is risky. But a more grounded strategy could well emerge, which seeks to rid Hinduism of its caste-based fractures; infuse the religion with modern concepts of universal human rights and worry more about generating income and wealth for all, rather than protecting India from without whilst dividing it from within.
The Modi-Shah duo's dodgy electoral tactics are not new. Encouraging social divisiveness; kitchen cabinets to bypass government structures; centralisation of authority; a quasi-presidential form of campaigning and the systematic decimation of potential opponents — all these have all been used by other parties in the past. Banyan tree leadership is hardly unique to today's BJP.
What is new is the blinding speed with which the Modi-Shah team has executed their strategy of building a "New India" — a narrative which promises to change social endowments and norms in ways that have never visualised previously. Status quoists will resist this seismic makeover. Beneficiaries will support it. Make up your mind, dear reader, where you belong.
This state of despondency arises from many factors, the major one being the disappointment with the performance of NarendraModi's government (bhakts always excepted).
Two abbreviations crop up in any conversation about the elections. Both give a dispiriting picture of the mood of the nation. The acronyms are NOTA and TINA, which as we all know, expand to None Of The Above and There Is No Alternative.
This state of despondency arises from many factors, the major one being the disappointment with the performance of NarendraModi's government (bhakts always excepted). In 2014, there was a genuine Modi Wave caused by disillusionment with UPA's drift and its alleged corruption; in direct contrast were Modi's enticing promises of "development" and rooting out corruption and black money. The disasters of demonetisation and GST, rising unemployment and the unaddressed tragedy of agrarian distress has taken the sheen off Modi's many promises.
NarendraModi knows; everyone in the BJP knows; thinking party supporters (bhakts always excepted) also know, that repeating the same promises again and again doesn't fulfil them — action does — but implementation has either been negligible, or poor. This is why not one single speech of Modi talks of his government's performance. It's a strange thing to hear a prime minister going to the people for re-election without a word about five years of his government. Instead, he talks about his "muscular response" to Pakistan and he talks about Hindutva in a demagogic way reminiscent of Bal Thackeray, using words which a chief election commissioner like T N Seshan would have acted more strongly against.
Sadly, the EC is not the only institution the Modi government has eviscerated. If you really wanted to know what the BJP government has achieved in its five-year term, it's this: Every institution, the Enforcement Directorate, CBI, the police in BJP-ruled states, the Income Tax department… name them, and they do the government's bidding, even if many of their actions on the eve of elections are clearly political in nature and meant to influence the electorate.
This is where the TINA factor comes in. Even BJP supporters disillusioned with NarendraModi ask: If not Modi, who will be PM? Rahul Gandhi? Mamata Banerjee? Mayawati? They find all these options unacceptable. Unfortunately, people have short memories. Political turmoil brought in prime ministers as diverse as Morarji Desai, V P Singh, I K Gujral, Chandra Shekhar, DeveGowda and Charan Singh. Not all of them were a disaster. In any case, all of them were in the chair for just around a year each (except Desai, who had two years), far too short a time to judge a prime minister's performance. More than that, it's important to note the classic definition of a prime minister in a functioning democracy: He is the first among equals in the council of ministers. Would anyone in the present cabinet dare say that of NarendraModi? No wonder the BJP's slogan for 2019 is "phirekbaar, Modisarkar". And its manifesto is replete with photographs of Modi, significantly even on the cover. Apart from re-emphasising that Modi's council of ministers consists of lightweights; the slogan underlines the fact that the BJP government is Modi, Modi and Modi. That's how the TINA factor gets reinforced as part of the BJP's planned campaign strategy.
Contrast that with the Congress's slogan, "abhoga NYAY', a play on the Hindi word to mean justice as well as highlight the party's ambitious social welfare programme, with which it hopes to make an impact on the elections. It also removes any hint of a personality cult in the party, although clearly, Rahul Gandhi is the prime force in the election campaign. Perhaps, it's also a tacit admission that the public perception of Rahul Gandhi as an unsuitable candidate for prime ministership hasn't changed, although the man himself has grown impressively into a leadership role. But you need an open mind to notice that, and an open mind doesn't seem to be a common attribute of our electorate, especially its urban component. The more educated you are, the more you are likely to hold on to your prejudices.
An interesting point to note is that even Indira Gandhi, a towering personality if ever there was one, used the slogan "garibihatao", and not a personality-centric one. But that concealed the fact that she ruled her government and her party with an iron fist. Another interesting point to note is that in his constant attacks on "The Family" and "Dynasty", Modi hasn't said a word against Indira Gandhi. For all his visceral hatred of the Nehru-Gandhis, Modi is strangely silent about Indira: There's obviously an unspoken and sneaking admiration there. When you think about it, it's really not surprising. Indira Gandhi was the government, and no one else mattered. NarendraModi is the government, and he has made sure no one else matters. For all those enamoured of strong leadership, it might be salutary to remember its perils: Mrs Gandhi imposed the Emergency, she nationalised banks (a disaster in the long run), she abolished privy purses (a constitutional guarantee), she subverted most of our institutions, including even the judiciary, and she used departments like Income Tax to get even with political opponents. Aren't the parallels uncanny? On the other hand, low-key, self-effacing personalities like LalBahadurShastri and Narasimha Rao made excellent prime ministers; in fact, the former had he not died so tragically early, may have lived to be our best PM ever.
NOTA, of course, is an expression of dissatisfaction with the whole political process, and who can blame people when we see the way our electioneering has been conducted, with its abuse and personal invective? But NOTA is not an option; the option really is this: Better not the devil we know than the devil we don't, because the latter may turn out to be not a devil at all.

Harvey Weinstein: Bill Cosby's rep calls guilty verdict 'a sad day in US judicial system'

The publicist for convicted sex offender and former comedian Bill Cosby has called Harvey Weinstein's guilty verdict "a sad day in the American judicial system".
The disgraced movie mogul was found guilty of a criminal sexual act in the first degree and third-degree rape by a jury in New York on Tuesday (NZT). He was acquitted of one count of first-degree rape and two counts of predatory sexual assault, each carrying a sentence of life imprisonment.
Despite being accused of sexual misconduct by more than 80 women over 30 years, Weinstein was only convicted for the sexual assault of his former production assistant Mimi Haleyi in 2006 and the rape of Jessica Mann, an aspiring actress, in 2013.
Weinstein in custody, guilty on two counts in rape trial
The world reacts to Harvey Weinstein verdict
In a statement posted to Cosby's social media accounts, publicist Andrew Wyatt questioned where America's "wealthy and famous men" can go to find "fairness and impartiality in the judicial system".
Despite a five-day deliberation by the jury of seven men and five women, Wyatt argued the jurors were unable to come to an impartial verdict as they were "not sequestered". He also slammed the judge for pressuring the jury to reach a conviction.
"This is not shocking because these jurors were not sequestered, which gave them access to media coverage and the sentiments of public opinion," he said.
"There's no way you would have anyone believe that Mr. Weinstein was going to receive a fair and impartial trial. Also, this judge showed that he wanted a conviction by sending the jurors back to deliberate, after they were hung on many of the counts."
According to local media, the jury was cautioned not to read any media on several occasions and there are no indications any of the 12 jurors were influenced by reports during the course of the trial.
Wyatt then implied the global #MeToo movement, which inspired many women to come forward with their allegations of sexual misconduct, was designed to favour "white women".
"Lastly, if the #metoo movement isn't just about Becky [White women], I would challenge #metoo and ask them to go back 400+ years and tarnish the names of those oppressors that raped slaves.
"This is a very sad day in the American Judicial System."
The post ended with several hashtags, including #FreeBillCosby, #JusticeReform, #DueProcess and #FarFromFinished.
Cosby, 82, is currently serving prison time for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004. He was sentenced to three to 10 years behind bars.
When Cosby was convicted in 2018, Wyatt compared the comedian's "persecution" to Jesus.
Earlier in February, Cosby's wife Camille shared a strongly-worded post to her husband's social media, responding to NBA legend Kobe Bryant's 2003 rape case being highlighted after his death.
"I will specify African American men for the purpose of this statement... the ever-present, unproven accusations of Black men as sexually deviant, brutal black bucks, are repetitive obsessions in most general media," the post read.
"The media's current attempts to supersede Mr. Kobe Bryant's celebrated history with an old case that was unproven and dismissed are downright parasitic and cruel."
Weinstein, 67, faces up to 25 years behind bars for the sexual assault conviction and up to four years for the third-degree rape.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on March 11.

In an appeal broadcast in South Sudan on Wednesday, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon renewed his call on its leaders to settle their differences peacefully and pledged to help end the violence that has wracked the world`s youngest nation over the past 10 days.
I want to assure you that the United Nations stands with the people of South Sudan at this difficult time, " Mr. Ban said in his radio/video message.
Escalating violence has led to hundreds of deaths and the displacement of at least 90,000 people in the country, which gained its independence two years ago after seceding from Sudan. The conflict has been increasingly marked by reports of ethnically targeted violence.
We know many of you are suffering from horrific attacks. Families are fleeing their homes. Many of you have lost loved ones and are grieving. Innocent civilians are being targeted because of their ethnicity. This is a grave violation of human rights, " said Mr. Ban.
South Sudan is under threat " but South Sudan is not alone, " he stressed.
Mr. Ban called on the country`s leaders to settle their differences peacefully and underscored their responsibility to protect civilians. I have warned all responsible for crimes that they will be held accountable. "
Yesterday, the Security Council, acting on Mr. Ban`s recommendations, increased the troop strength of the UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), which is currently sheltering some 58,000 civilians who have fled to its peacekeeping compounds for protection.
In a unanimously adopted resolution, the Council authorized a temporary increase of 5,500 more troops and 440 more police, as well as critical aviation assets to boost the capacity of the Mission which currently has some 7,000 personnel.
Mr. Ban has noted that even with ongoing support, the strengthening of UNMISS` protection capabilities will not happen overnight. Even with additional capabilities, we will not be able to protect every civilian in need in South Sudan, " he stated after the Council`s action. The parties are responsible to end the conflict. "
Also today, aid agencies said they need $166 million from now until March 2014 to address the immediate needs of people resulting from the current crisis. This includes emergency programmes for some 200,000 refugees from Sudan in Unity and Upper Nile states of South Sudan.
The resources will be used to provide clean water and sanitation, healthcare, shelter, and deliver food and livelihood assistance, according to a news release issued by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
It will also ensure that the rights of vulnerable people, including survivors of violence, are better protected. The money will be used to manage sites for displaced people and transport aid workers and supplies to strategic locations where communities are most at risk.
This is an extremely difficult time for the people of this new nation, and it is crucial that aid agencies have the resources they need to save lives in the coming months, " said Toby Lanzer, UN Humanitarian Coordinator in South Sudan.
There are at least 90,000 people who have been displaced in the past 10 days. This includes 58,000 people who are sheltering in UN peacekeeping bases, a number which represents only a share of all the people we need to reach in the coming weeks. "

Bertrand Marcel Laquait (born 13 April 1977) is a French retired professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Club career
Born in Vichy, Laquait started his professional career with AS Nancy in Ligue 2, appearing in only two matches in his first year in a final promotion to Ligue 1 and adding five the next season. He was first-choice the following two campaigns, the last one spent in the second division.

In summer 2002, Laquait joined R. Charleroi S.C. in Belgium, starting for the Zèbres from his second season onwards. On 21 December 2003 he scored from his goal against R.A.E.C. Mons, and was nominated for the campaign's Belgian Goalkeeper of the Year award, eventually losing to Silvio Proto of R.A.A. Louviéroise.

Laquait spent 2006–07 on loan to Recreativo de Huelva in Spain, making his La Liga debut on 14 October 2006 in a 1–2 away loss against Atlético Madrid (45 minutes played). He played understudy to Javier López Vallejo during the season, and failed to appear in the league for Charleroi upon his return, leaving the club in June 2009.

Aged 32, Laquait returned to his country and signed for Thonon Évian F.C. of Championnat National, being first-choice as the team achieved two consecutive promotions. On 1 October 2011 he played his first match in the top flight in more than 11 years, a 1–1 draw at his first professional team Nancy where he was named player of the match.

Q: PHP cURL: Encoding/Parsing (AWS Neptune using SPARQL) I'm new to SPARQL so this might be a dumb question but I'm having troubles inserting data. I'm using the HTTPS REST endpoint to communicate with the DB.
I have the following triple:
<urn:data:Gen`000001>
<urn:data:content>
"This is a literal"

Which I urlencode() because, as I thought, it would give me no errors since it has the proper URI format:
<urn:data:Gen%60000001>
...

Yet the % character is raising the error (because if I use a - instead of the % it works.) Because of this answer I tried backslashing the % character:
<urn:data:Gen\%60000001>
...

Then I tried using a URL instead of the URN:
<https://test.com/data/Gen%60000001>
<https://test.com/data/content>
...

But it keeps giving me the same error:
The requested URL returned error: 400 Bad Request

So what am I doing wrong? How can I escape the % character (and maybe other urlencode characters?) Or should I ask, Is this the right way of doing it, doing a urlencode() before submitting?
EDIT:
my PHP code:
$q = 'update=INSERT DATA { '.
        '<https://test.com/data/Gen%60000001> '.
        '<https://test.com/data/content> '.
        '"This is a literal." }';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$config->db->public->neptune->cluster."/sparql");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 3);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $q);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$server_output = curl_exec($ch);

if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    $error = curl_error($ch);
}

if(!$error)
    echo $server_output;
else
    echo $error;

Again, if I just change % to - it works:
query=select * where {?s ?p ?o}
result:
  "s" : {
    "type" : "uri",
    "value" : "https://test.com/data/Gen-60000001"
  },
  "p" : {
    "type" : "uri",
    "value" : "https://test.com/data/content"
  },
  "o" : {
    "type" : "literal",
    "value" : "This is a literal."
  }

EDIT2 + Solution:
As Kelvin Lawrence pointed out, it's likely it is some parsing/encodigin issue on PHP's side. I deleted the CURLOPT_FAILONERROR and now I have these errors showing up:
using URN:
    {
        "detailedMessage":"Malformed query: Lexical error at line 1, column 28.
            Encountered: \"`\" (96), after : \"\"",
        "requestId":"***",
        "code":"MalformedQueryException"
    }

using URL:
    {
        "detailedMessage":"Malformed query: Lexical error at line 1, column 32.
            Encountered: \"/\" (47), after : \"test.com\"",
        "requestId":"***",
        "code":"MalformedQueryException"}

It looks like the error using the URN shows that Neptune receives it (or decodes it) as the original character before I urlencoded it. So if I urlencode it once more before sending it does work as it should:
$q = 'update=INSERT DATA { '.
        '<https://test.com/data/'.urlencode(urlencode('Gen`60000001')).'> '.
        '<https://test.com/data/content> '.
        '"This is a literal." }';

But why does Neptune receive it decoded or why does it decode it? It is send in the POST body so it doesn't need to be decoded, right? What am I missing?
EDIT3:
Another thing I should mention:
$q = 'query=select * where {?s ?p ?o}';

This query works perfectly, while the same query with newlines does not work:
$q = 'query=select *
        where {
            ?s
            ?p
            ?o
        }';

It gives me this error:
{
    "detailedMessage":"Malformed query: Encountered \"\" at line 1, column 9.\n
        Was expecting one of:\n    \"{\" ...\n    \"from\" ...\n    \"where\" ...\n
        \"with\" ...\n    ",
    "requestId":"***",
    "code":"MalformedQueryException"
}

Why? I can solve this by keeping the query at one line, but that's not how it should work.

A: Try to utilize base64_encode / decode.
Transfering data between php files works for me that way
File A:
$string = "sadfkjæ4#%"#¤%";
$string_for_transfer = base64_encode($string);
File B:
$string = $_GET["string"];
$string_data = base64_decode($string);
echo $string_data;

gives:
sadfkjæ4#%"#¤%

DOWNTOWN LOS ALTOS
Chef's Profile
10 Under-the-Radar Chefs to Know in the SF Bay Area
By Trevor Felch, Zagat
Song says, "Throughout my years as a chef, I've worked with Korean, classic French and New American cuisines. With Ambience, I am marrying all three to create a cuisine that takes the best of what each culture has to offer."
SF's secret culinary rock stars revealed
Morgan Song at Ambience
The question of the most impressive tasting menu is a tricky one for savvy Bay Area diners. While most would say Manresa or Lazy Bear, the answer is in quaint downtown Los Altos, thanks to one of Northern California's longest tenured and least known fine-dining chefs. Longtime Zagat readers might remember Rodin, a restaurant on Lombard Street from the 1980s. Well, Song was the chef-owner there when it was named the fifth best restaurant in the Bay Area in our 1988 survey (for the record, Chez Panisse was sixth and Stars was eighth). His style of Nouvelle French cuisine lost steam among diners in the '90s and Song left the Bay Area to open different concepts in Marin and Sacramento. But, five years ago Song quietly returned to the Peninsula and his cooking has emerged as powerful and more ambitious than ever.
Signature dish: Song says, "Throughout my years as a chef, I've worked with Korean, classic French and New American cuisines. With Ambience, I am marrying all three to create a cuisine that takes the best of what each culture has to offer." Diners can usually count on a luxurious French preparation of butter-poached lobster with crispy tarragon.
"...as many food aficionados considered Song to be among the best, most precise and artistic chefs in the area. Almost all of his dishes were so beautifully plated you couldn't be blamed for staring instead of eating..."

Morgan Song's Ambience in Los Altos
By Linda Zavoral
lzavoral@mercurynews.com
"STARRY-EYED MOVE: It's an overused phrase, for sure, but if past reviews are any indication, Sacramento's loss is the Peninsula's gain. Earlier this year, Morgan Song -- he's been called a world-class chef -- closed his highly rated restaurant in the capital's suburbs, where the economy has been slow to rebound, in favor of a move back to the Bay Area. (Diners may remember him from Rodin or Kiss in San Francisco. Our own David L. Beck gave Song a four-star review in 1995.)
"This is a significant loss to the local culinary scene," wrote Sacramento Bee restaurant critic Blair Anthony Robertson, "as many food aficionados considered Song to be among the best, most precise and artistic chefs in the area. Almost all of his dishes were so beautifully plated you couldn't be blamed for staring instead of eating."
Song has reopened his Ambience in downtown Los Altos, and is again practicing his culinary artistry. His opening menu, an eight-course prix fixe with several choices, reflects his style of French-Asian fusion. (Not sure what to order? Robertson wrote that he would miss Song's sea bass, scallops and wild boar tenderloin with black rice, among other dishes.)
The Bay Area move for a chef of Song's caliber offers him even higher acclaim than he currently enjoys. As Robertson said, "I'm certain that if Michelin stretched its boundaries beyond the Bay Area and Napa Valley and rated Sacramento restaurants, too, Ambience would have been a contender for a Michelin star."

Flag Model of Theodian history
The Flag Model of Theodian history divides Theodian history into separate eras for each national flag. Between 2010 and now, Theodia has gone through eight different national flags, and it has changed to a new one at a pretty steady pace; about once a year. This makes Theodia's national flags a convenient proxy for the normal passage of time, and therefore a reasonable way to apportion the country's history.
The Flag Model dates back to early 2011, when Theodia changed to its second flag. That first flag change was meant to symbolize a rebirth of the nation – a separation of the past from the present. Consequently, the history for 2011 was written in a different section on MicroWiki than the history for 2010. This was repeated when the flag changed again in 2012, and then for every flag-change thereafter. It is, however, thought that the current flag may be Theodia's last. While this would mean an end to the Flag Model going forward, the model remains useful for the first seven years of Theodia's history.
1 Violet Era
2 Golden Era
3 Cerulean Era
4 Banded Era
5 Rounded Era
6 Trimmed Era
7 Returning Era
8 Calculated Era
Violet Era
The first national flag
More information: Foundational Theodia
This was the first period of Theodia's history, covering the time from Theodia's founding on 22 April 2010, to the "Rebirth", which occurred in March 2011. It was in this period that Theodia declared independence from the USA on 22 October 2010.[1] The Time of the Violet Banner occurred primarily during the Late Lethlerism and Post-Lether Eras. This period is known colloquially as the time of the "Purple Flag".
Theodia's foreign policy at this time was noticeably more involved than under the Golden Banner. At times, it has (retrospectively) been considered bordering on interventionistic. Notable reasons for why Theodia involved itself in various intermicronational affairs included discouraging war and protecting history. It also helped found the Runic Union alongside West Germania.
Theodia was founded as a kingdom by Swena, and was throughout this period mostly a one-person nation. Internal policy was fairly uneventful for a while, and generally had a politically realist and heavily monocultural theme to it. The elemental party system was the country's first major political innovation. Tiered religious legislation was also developed, designed to utilize taxes to encourage conversion from belief-systems less compatible with the dominant one, a system inspired by a similar one used in medieval Islamic societies. Although these ideas were both conceived under the Violet Banner, neither was finalized until the true ratification of the first constitution, which occurred under the Golden Banner.[2]
The economy of Theodia was almost entirely dependent upon subsistence farming with pineapples. A physical national currency was developed, but never got to be used. It was known first as the Thennar, a name inspired by the currency in the videogame Mount&Blade; and its symbol, which has remained unchanged to this day, has been ꝥ, which is the rune thorn with a stroke, once used to represent Old English þæt in manuscripts.
The technology present in Theodia during this period was very much that which was present in America at the time, with the exception of the language. Theodia devoted large amounts of time and research into linguistic relativism and linguistics in general, with the goal of developing a national language that would strengthen national unity and improve the ability of Theodians to think. The ancient Milic Runic script was refined almost to its current state, and was the standard writing system for Theodian, except for a short time when the Runic Union's universal script was standard.
There was very little art produced during this time. For the most part, the official runic script was seen as the country's foremost art, and a calligraphic font was developed for it.
Early Theodian was spoken rarely, and was dramatically different from modern Theodian. The English used was also notably more archaic than modern Theodian English, especially in spelling. It was so different that the national website in the Golden Era outright explained why there were so many "typos" on the site.
Religiously, Theodia was a mixture of Liberal Protestant Christian, Atheist, Neopagan, and Catholic. The religious legislation, which depended upon an in-place economic framework, was never enforceable.
Golden Era
The second national flag
More information: Foundational Theodia, Transitional Theodia
This was the second period of Theodia's history, covering the time from the Rebirth in March 2011 to 1 September 2012. It occurred primarily during the Era of Tension and the Inter-Summit Era, ending a little into the Settled Era. This period is known colloquially as the time of the "Orange Flag", and is often characterized as a transitional period between Theodia at its founding and Theodia as it is today.
Theodia's foreign policy under the Golden Banner was a little more reserved than it was under the Violet Banner. The Kingdom for the most part handled all of its foreign affairs through the Runic Union and the OAM, with the exception of its diplomatic embargo of Istoria and cession of Underwoodia.[3] Theodia also founded the SIH (Society for Improvement of Humankind), which was a think-tank designed to rethink society.[4]
During this period, internal policy was formalized for the first time in Theodia's history, with the ratification of the country's now-void constitution on 20 June 2011.[2] It revised the elemental party system devised under the Violet Banner, sortiting representatives via a complicated system of meritocracy and demarchy. A lot of attention was paid to preventing ethnic unrest and corruption of representatives.[5]
After the Tension Era, Theodia started to fundamentally rethink itself, and work began on developing a new model of legislation. The Kingdom, along with the SIH, came up with a parent-child model of legislation, with child codices organized by subject, developed with open source-code, and released quarterly. A rudimentary legislative programming language, 'GOV', was developed for it,[6] as were modlevels (in-line editing-restrictions) and optlevels (amount of research required to change a line), although these latter two were developed about a week or so into the time of the Cerulean Banner.
Theodia refined its national currency and, with the ratification of the original constitution, renamed it to the Theodian Mark so as to better-reflect Theodia's Germanic heritage. As well, plans were begun to implement an online economy which was to be managed using statistical algorithms which aren't practical with physical currencies, and lot of attention was paid to implementing a demurrage tax, such as was used in Great Depression Austria. Each province was to set its own tax rates and have its own currency (to be backed by the national currency). Some preliminary programming work in Python was done on the economy by Axel.
At the period's start, Theodia expanded all over the Web 2.0 Internet,[7] but by the end of the period, much of the country's 'enfrastructure' was crumbling. A lot of research was poured into government, the economy, linguistic relativism, and Linux throughout this period. The main Theodian directory system was redone, and important documents sorted and stored in it, with plans to host it on an FTP server, using ACL's to prevent unwanted writes.
During this period, the Theodian language changed greatly, and often. It frequently changed completely from one version to the next, eventually becoming somewhat stable in the form of what is known as Late Theodian. The old Theodspraughsk pages went into disuse, and were abandoned. Theodian English was similarly unstable, and gradually became increasingly similar in orthography to American English.
Throughout this period, the culture of Theodia gradually shifted away from germanicism, a trait that had been rather important at the country's founding. This had some influence on Theodia's foreign relations and the makeup of the Runic Union.
Cerulean Era
The third national flag
More information: Transitional Theodia
This was the third period of Theodia's history, covering the time from 1 September 2012, to July 2013. It occurred exclusively during the Settled Era, and was characterized by the death of Axel, the beginning of repositocracy as a political idea, and the end of the Theodian monarchy. It is known colloquially as the "Cerulean Flag".
Theodia's foreign policy took a few sharp turns in this period. Min Axel was expanding the country's foreign affairs ministry and coordinated a treaty with Lostisland before hirs death in September 2012. Axel's death meant the loss of most of the development that had occurred in the Ministry of FA, and in the absence of a foreign policy structure and people able to man it, Theodia's Ministry of FA lied dormant until M. Naropa (later Narba) took office in June 2013.
Theodia's internal structure began to calm down from the turbulence of the Orange Banner, and the country settled upon repositocracy for its legislative branch. Quing Sweyn78 (now Swena) set up a simple structure organized around hirmself for the executive branch, but expressed concerns with monarchism which eventually would lead to the country's transition to a republic.
Theodia remodelled its federal divisions to support participation in multiple sectors, and Mentia was repurposed into a realm for Theodia's Minecraft territories. Quing Sweyn78 began planning and modelling a capital city in Minecraft, and also began developing a micronation-centric Minecraft server called 'Governcraft'.
Theodia had essentially nothing for an economy during this period. Many of the pineapples that in previous periods were essential for the country's GDP were lost, and there existed no economic infrastructure within the country which people could use to exchange. However, there was some progress in economic thought, and Theodia settled upon its current dual-currency model, as well as decided to implement minimum vacation days and to not implement a price floor on labour (a minimum wage). The country's currency was renamed to the Thennar, the original name of Theodian currency, as the country gradually grew more and more distant from Germanic culture.
Theodia revived its Facebook and Google+ pages during this period, as well as greatly improved its MicroWiki articles. The main website, however, remained in its outdated form from early in the time of the Orange Banner.
The Theodian language gained a clear objective and an increasingly clear methodology, seeking to utlize phonosemantics to derive lexemes. Plans were made to govern a formal version of the language with a repositocracy, using a Thirdly release cycle with support for Extended Support Releases. Lastly, the writing system was moved to an IPA-style a priori script, generated from simple rune-like forms on a chart organized by place and manner in the sonority hierarchy.
The culture of Theodia too expanded notably, and the society picked up polyamory, dozenal numbers, ternary logic, abolition of gender roles and racialism, an improved calendar, and the Ergonometric system.
Banded Era
The fourth national flag
More information: Transitional Theodia, Maturational Theodia
This was the fourth period of Theodia's history, covering the time from the transition to a republic in July 2013 to the country's legal bootstrapping of a basic government in June 2014. It both began and ended in the Settled Era of the Microwiki community. It was characterized by notable progress in governmental thought and infrastructure, but was entirely pre-codification, and so the government operated fairly informally, under total control of Founder Swena. With the opening of this Era, Theodia adopted a new flag to represent the republic, which became known as the "Banded Banner" or, colloquially, the "Bar Flag".
Throughout this Era, Theodia's foreign affairs were fairly low-key. Along with the transition to republicanism, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was replaced with the Ministry of External Affairs, composed of two departments: Foreign Relations, and Intelligence. A couple agreements of mutual recognition were made in late 2013; and contact was restored with West Germania in January 2014. In February 2014, Theodia ascendended to the GUM as a provisional member, with Founder Swena representing the country. After the movement of the new Charter into force, Theodia opted for membership as an Observer State, and eventually allowed itself to time out of observer status.
It was generally expected by the Theodian populace that a legislative development hub would be operational within a few days of the transition, but Founder Swena (the framer of the new constitution) soon realized that the legislative kernel module couldn't truly be completed without a formalized system of devolution. Such a system was conceptualized about a month later, inspired by those of the medieval feudal system. More, the executive was reformed, the naming policy was revamped, and the equipment of the military was standardized. In November 2013, a Coat of Arms scheme for Theodian territories was devised. Many other aspects of the legislative sytem were likewise reformed. However, as Theodia lacked a formalized system of government, the various advancements in Theodian structure and policy that occured throughout this era remained uncannonized, their legitimacy dependent upon the words of Founder Swena alone.
Theodia's national website was overhauled at the start of this Era, designed to utilize the Webs.com SiteBuilder v3 as well as to refine the functionality of the website for modern Theodia.
The culture of Theodia continued progressing, notably adopting as its own the conical Asian hat. More, the first official rules for the national sport (battlegaming) were written. Significant progress was made on the Theodian language, with many conceptual issues finally ironed out, the phoneme inventory simplified, and the grammar increasingly formalized. The national Kalendars were corrected and tweaked, as well as expanded to accommodate locations other than Earth's Northern Hemisphere. The Ergonometric system's notation for time was likewise improved. Two of the three major national holidays were finally given some form, with Liteval being particularly well-defined.
Rounded Era
The fifth national flag
More information: Maturational Theodia
This was the fifth period of Theodia's history, covering the time from the publication of the country's first legislative module in July 2014, to the beginning of 2015. It began in the Settled Era of the Microwiki community and ended in the Polarized Era. With the opening of this Era, Theodia rounded the components of its flag somewhat and hexagonalized the bars on the sides, in order to make it feel a bit more 'modern' and aesthetically pleasing; as well, the official flag was rotated 90', so as to remain sightly even in little wind. This iteration of the Theodian national flag has become known as the "Rounded Standard", or colloquially, the "Round Flag".
Swena opened this era with the publishing of the country's first legislative release, as well as the inauguration of several tribunes to assist with the management of the country. Several talks have begun to take place in the country's internal Facebook group, particularly about the organization of the economy, the role of religion in the state, and the country's bureaucracy. The country's paradigm of official language changed to have primary languages and secondary languages; and Spanish was, for the first time, listed as a [secondary] official language.
Although there was been throughout this era no revival of the Theodian economy, there were several changes made to its legal structure. As well, the national currency was renamed to the GP ('Tsipi' in Theodian), derived from the name of a currency used in several videogames.
The allophony of the language was refined, particularly regarding the effects of vowels upon preceding coronal and dorsal consonants. As well, the place-markers in the orthography for coronal and dorsal consonants were switched in order to make the script more regular; and ligatures were introduced to make the script more aesthetic. The Romanization scheme was tweaked somewhat to allow more compatibility with the orthography of Italian, as well as to fix several bugs in the ordering of the rules, and to make the scheme match more closely the rules of Latin scripts. After years of difficulties, a cursive style for the Theodian script was finally successfully developed.
The national garb was changed some to allow even more freedom of movement, and adopted pteruges for the the mantle and skirt. The military of Theodia received some improvement as well, as the spearflail currently used by Theodian polemyn was first invented during this period. As well, the lamellar pattern was completely redone.
Trimmed Era
The sixth
This was the sixth period of Theodia's history, covering the time from early 2015 to early 2016. It both began and ended in the Polarized Era of the Microwiki community. The flag received a visual overhaul, returning to using violet for the field and gold for the trim. This has resulted in the flag being named the "Trimmed Standard", or more succinctly, the "Trimflag", in reference to the banner's use of a third colour.
During this period, a transitional government was declared in the face of continued inactivity by the citizenry and the consistent failure over the past 5 years of previous attempts at governance. This new government, rather than trying to govern an entire society, only attempts to govern the development of that society – a crucial distinction that allows the country in its foundational years to be managed more like a collaborative project than an already fully extant society. At the end of this period, a GitHub repo was created for legislation.
In an effort to focus efforts onto a single land-claim, Theodia revoked all of its previous claims, and formed a new claim in eastern Greenland. It then began researching ways to cultivate this land, but ultimately decided it wasn't worth the effort, and revoked its claim. Theodia also adopted several new conventions, particularly in mathematics and timekeeping, and made some advances in the Theodian language.
Returning Era
The seventh
This was the seventh period of Theodia's history, covering the time from early 2016 to mid-2017. It began in the Polarized Era of the Microwiki community and ended in the Stagnant Era. The flag's crest was reverted to the classic gear symbol; this has resulted in the flag being named the "Returning Standard", or more succinctly, the "Returnflag", in reference to the banner's resemblance to some of Theodia's oldest flags.
This era was defined by relative inactivity, punctuated by brief moments of progress. In spite of this, Theodia managed to establish diplomatic relations with some other micronations for the first time in years. Theodia also reinstated its claim on Jamesonland in Eastern Greenland, in part to legitimize itself. Additionally, an elaborate system of traffic regulations was devised, several cultural systems were defined or refined, and some significant progress was made in the development of the Theodian language. This era ended during Theodia's preparations for MicroCon 2017, when the Calcuflag was unveiled.
Calculated Era
The eighth
More information: Maturational Theodia, Modern Theodia
This is the eigth period of Theodia's history, covering the time from mid-2017 to the present, and will likely last forever, as the current flag's design is of very high quality, and has already gone into production. This era began in the Stagnant Era of the Microwiki community. The flag was streamlined, with the central hexagon removed, all thicknesses and distances carefully calculated, and the colour changed to magenta for the sake of symbolism. This has resulted in the flag being named the "Calculated Standard", or more succinctly, the "Calcuflag", in reference to the banner's careful design.
This section will not see expansion until there is a new flag. As this flag is expected to be the last, a new flag is unlikely.
