Pro: Windows Server 2008, Server Administrator
You are evaluating whether to add an additional hard disk drive to each file server and create a striped volume for the data files.
Which storage requirement is met by adding the hard disk drive and creating the striped volume?
Improve data availability on the file servers.
Improve the performance of the file servers.
Provide additional storage on the file servers without causing downtime.
Enable users to access the previous versions of all the files stored on the file servers.
A striped volume is a dynamic volume that stores data in stripes on two or more physical disks. Data in a striped volume is allocated alternately and evenly (in stripes) across the disks. Striped volumes offer the best performance of all the volumes that are available in Windows, but they do not provide fault tolerance. If a disk in a striped volume fails, the data in the entire volume is lost.
You can create striped volumes only on dynamic disks. Striped volumes cannot be extended. You can create a striped volume onto a maximum of 32 dynamic disks.
You need to recommend a solution that enables User1 to perform the required actions on
the HyperV server. What should you include in the recommendation?
Active Directory delegation
Authorization Manager role assignment
local security groups on the Hyper-V server
local security groups on the VMs
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283030(v=ws.10).aspx
You use Authorization Manager to provide role-based access control for Hyper-V. For instructions on implementing role-based access control.
Authorization Manager is comprised of the following:
Authorization Manager snap-in (AzMan.msc). You can use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snapin to select operations, group them into tasks, and then authorize roles to perform specific tasks. You also use it to manage tasks, operations, user roles, and permissions. To use the snap-in, you must first create an authorization store or open an existing store. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?
LinkId=134086.
Authorization Manager API. The API provides a simplified development model in which to manage flexible groups and business rules and store authorization policies. For more information, see Role-based Access
Control (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=134079).
Authorization Manager requires a data store for the policy that correlates roles, users, and access rights. This is called an authorization store. In Hyper-V, this data store can be maintained in an Active Directory database or in an XML file on the local server running the Hyper-V role. You can edit the store through the Authorization Manager snap-in or through the Authorization Manager API, which are available to scripting languages such as VBScript.
If an Active Directory database is used for the authorization store, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) must be at the Windows Server 2003 functional level.
The XML store does not support delegation of applications, stores, or scopes because access to the XML file is controlled by the discretionary access control list (DACL) on the file, which grants or restricts access to the entire contents of the file. (For more information about Authorization Manager delegation, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=134075). Because of this, if an XML file is used for the authorization store, it is important that it is backed up regularly. The NTFS file system does not support applications issuing a sequence of separate write operations as a single
logical write to a file when multiple applications write to the same file.
This means an Authorization Manager policy file (XML file) could be edited simultaneously by two administrative applications and could become corrupted. The Hyper-V VSS writer will back up the authorization store with the server running the Hyper-V role. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725995(WS.10).aspx
A role assignment is a virtual container for application groups whose members are authorized for the role. A role assignment is based on a single role definition, and a single role definition can be the basis of many role assignments.
The most common procedure that administrators carry out is the assignment of application groups, or Windows users and groups, to a role. For step-by-step instructions, see Assign a Windows User or Group to a Role or
Assign an Application Group to a Role.
You need to recommend a solution for managing App1. The solution must require the minimum amount of administrative effort.
Group Policy Administrative Templates
Group Policy Preferences
Group Policy Software Settings
Windows Remote Management (WinRM)
Get total application control with Windows Group Policy Preferences (GPP).
With GPPs added to Group Policy, you'll find that your level of customized control increases substantially. The graphical interface used in creating a GPP makes the process of managing an application's configuration, mapping a drive, or adding a new registry key far easier as well as going far beyond what was possible using traditional Group Policy.
Group Policy preferences, new for the Windows Server 2008 operating system, include more than 20 new Group Policy extensions that expand the range of configurable settings within a Group Policy object (GPO). These new extensions are included in the Group Policy Management Editor window of the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), under the new Preferences item. Examples of the new Group Policy preference extensions include folder options, mapped drives, printers, scheduled tasks, services, and Start menu settings.
Group Policy preferences provide better targeting, through item-level targeting and action modes. Additionally, rich user interfaces and standards-based XML configurations provide you with more power and flexibility over managed computers when you administer GPOs.
You need to recommend a Windows update strategy for the new branch office. What should you recommend doing in the new branch office?
Deploy WSUS in replica mode. Configure updates to be stored on the new WSUS server.
Deploy WSUS in autonomous mode. Configure updates to be stored on the new WSUS server.
Deploy WSUS in replica mode. Configure the WSUS clients to retrieve updates from Microsoft Update.
Deploy WSUS in autonomous mode. Configure the WSUS clients to retrieve updates from Microsoft Update.
New office has a 2MMbps link to the internet and only a 512Kbps link to HQ. so configuring WSUS to update from MS Update will meet the requirement to minimize WAN Link utalization. Making the WSUS server a replica will meet the requirement to minimize the administrative effort to approve updates as all updates would be approved in HQ and this approval would be replicated out to the branch offices.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd939820(WS.10).aspx Replica mode (centralized administration)
In replica mode, an upstream WSUS server shares updates, approval status, and computer groups with downstream servers. Downstream replica servers inherit update approvals and are not administered separately from the upstream WSUS server.
The following image shows how you might deploy replica WSUS servers in a branch office environment.
You need to identify which operating system must be installed on the HyperV server in the new branch office. Which operating system should you identify?
a Server Core installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
a Server Core installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Hyper-V has specific requirements. Hyper-V requires an x64-based processor, hardware- assisted virtualization, and hardware data execution prevention (DEP). Hyper-V is available in x64-based versions of Windows Server 2008-specifically, the x64-based versions of Windows Server 2008 Standard, Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, and Windows Server 2008 Datacenter technical requirements include minimizing attach surface, Server Core
achieves this. so should you use Enterprise or Standard as Hyper V can be implemented on both x64 versions? http://www.directionsonmicrosoft.com/sample/DOMIS/update/2008/02feb/0208ws2plp_ch.h tm
Windows Server 2008 Standard, Enterprise, and Datacenter are also offered in quot;without Hyper-Vquot; editions that do not include the hypervisor technology.
When customers exercise the maximum number of OS instances permitted by the server license, the physical OS instance may not be used to run any workload beyond hosting the virtual machines.
A single package contains both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. The server license grants the customer the option to use either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version of the software.
Supports hot addition of memory, but not hot replacement of memory, nor hot add or replacement of processors.
Use of Windows Server 2008#39;s new Terminal Services Gateway capability is limited to 250 connections.
Includes restrictions limiting scalability.
Volume licensing customers typically receive additional discounts of 10% to 30%. 8 Client Access Licenses (CALs) retail for US$40 apiece but are offered to volume
customers for as much as 50% off. External Connectors are available only via volume licensing programs. Pricing for an External Connector starts at approximately US$1,800 in the least-discounted programs
Under the planned changes it states that each branch will have one DC, a DirectAccess Server a File Server and a Web Server and that all branches will be virtualised. therefore you will be running 4 VMs Windows server 2008 Enterprise allows the running of 4 VMS on one license
So the answer is A becase Server core reduces the surface attack area and virtualization on Enterprise server will meet the VM and licensing requirements
Topic 4, Baldwin Museum of Science Scenario:
The Baldwin Museum of Science is an internationally renowned museum of science history.
The museum has a main office and a branch office named Branch1. The main office has 5,000 users. Branch1 has 1,000 users.
The main office connects to Branch1 by using a WAN link. The WAN link is highly saturated.
The museum has a sales department. All of the users in the sales department have client computers that run Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3).
EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
Active Directory Environment
The network contains one Active Directory forest. The forest contains two domains named baldwinmuseumofscience.com and ad.baldwinmuseumofscience.com.
All user accounts and computer accounts for all employees are in the ad.baldwinmuseumofscience.com domain. The organizational unit (OU) structure for ad.baldwinmuseumofscience.com is shown in the exhibit. (Click the Case Study Exhibits button.)
The network contains the following servers and Applications:
Application servers that run either Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2), Windows Server 2008 SP2, or Windows Server 2008 R2.
A custom Application named App1 that runs on all of the Application servers. App1 writes events to the Application log.
A line-of-business Application named App2 that requires Internet Explorer 6. All of the users in the sales department run App2.
File servers that run Windows Server 2008 R2. The main office has the following:
A two-node failover cluster that runs Windows Server 2008 R2 and has the Hyper-V role installed and a Clustered Shared Volume. The failover cluster hosts four virtual machines (VM) that run Windows Server 2008 R2. The VMs are stored on the Clustered Shared Volume. Each VM runs Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
A server named Server1 that hosts two shared folders named Sharel and Share2. Sharel hosts 50,000 research documents that are shared by multiple users. Share2 hosts documents that are created by users in the sales department.
Administration Model
All users in Branch 1 are members of global groups and universal groups. The groups are located in an OU named Groups in the ad.baldwinmuseumofscience.com domain.
The Baldwin Museum of Science plans to implement a new branch office named Branch2. Branch2 wi and will be configured as a separate Active Directory site.
Branch2 will be configured to meet the following requirements:
Minimize the cost of deploying new servers.
Contain only client computers that run Windows 7.
Connect to the main office by using a saturated WAN link.
Contain only servers that run Windows Server 2008 R2. The servers will be configured as either file servers or Web servers. The file shares on the file servers must be available if a single file server fails.
In Branch2, if a single domain controller or a WAN link fails, users in the branch must be able to:
Change their passwords.
Log on to their client computers.
The Baldwin Museum of Science must meet the following technical requirements:
Hardware and software costs must be minimized whenever possible.
All VMs must be backed up twice a day.
All VM backups must include the VM configuration information.
Events generated by App1 must be stored in a central location.
An administrator must be notified by e-mail when App1 generates an error.
The number of permissions assigned to help desk technicians must be minimized.
The help desk technicians must be able to reset the passwords and modify the membership of all users in Branch1.
If a user overwrites another user#39;s research document, the user must be able to recover a previous version of the document.
When users in the sales department work remotely, they must be able to access the files in Share1 in the minimum amount of time.
The Baldwin Museum of Science must meet the following security requirements:
->All scripts that run on production servers must be signed.
->Managers in Branch1 must be allowed to access the Internet at all times.
->Web site administrators must not be required to log on interactively to Web servers.
->Users in Branch1 must only be allowed to access the Internet between 12:00 and 13:00.
->Users and managers must be prevented from downloading executable files from the Internet.
->Administration of the corporate Web sites must support all bulk changes and scheduled content updates.
You need to recommend a highavailability solution for the file servers in Branch2 that supports the museum#39;s planned changes. What should you include in the recommendation?
a standalone Distributed File System (DFS) namespace and DFS Replication
a domain-based Distributed File System (DFS) namespace and DFS Replication
Failover Clustering and Clustered Shared Volumes
Network Load Balancing (NLB) and Storage Manager
Distributed File System (DFS)
DFS is a method of both simplifying your organization's shared folder structure and providing data redundancy through replication. DFS lets you collect shared folders located on different servers into one or more logically structured namespaces. Rather than having to remember which server hosts a specific shared folder, they can access the DFS namespace and find all shared folders.
You can replicate a DFS namespace and folders within a site and across WAN links. A user connecting to files within the shared folder structures contained in the DFS namespace will connect automatically to shared folders in the same Active Directory Directory Services (AD DS) site (when available) rather than across a WAN. You can have several DFS Namespace servers in a site and spread over several sites, so if one server goes down a user can still access files within the shared folder structure. The architecture of DFS ensures that a change to a file on a DFS share is replicated quickly and efficiently to all other replicas of that DFS share.
Creating a DFS Namespace
You can create a namespace when you install the DFS Management role service, as shown in Figure 10-2, or create it later.
You can add additional namespaces by right-clicking DFS Namespaces in the DFS Management console and selecting New Namespace. You can create namespaces on a member server or domain controller running Windows Server 2008. However, you cannot create more than one namespace on a server running Windows Server 2008 Standard edition. You can create multiple namespaces on servers running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise and Datacenter editions.
A namespace is a virtual view of shared folders in an organization, and it has a path to a namespace similar to a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path to a shared folder. You can create two types of namespaces:
Domain-Based Namespaces
A domain namespace uses a domain as its namespace root, such as
\\adatum.com\MyNameSpace. A domainbased namespace can be hosted on multiple namespace servers to increase its availability, and its metadata is stored in AD DS. Domain-based namespaces can be created on one or more member servers or domain controllers in the same domain, and metadata for a domain-based namespace is stored by AD DS. Each server must contain an NTFS volume to host the namespace. Multiple namespace servers increase the availability of the namespace. A domain-based namespace cannot be a clustered resource in a failover cluster. However, you can locate the namespace on a server that is also a node in a failover cluster provided that you configure the namespace to use only local resources on that server.
Standalone Namespaces
A stand-alone namespace uses a namespace server as its namespace root, such as
\\ServerA\MyNameSpace.
A stand-alone namespace is hosted on only one server. You would choose a stand-alone namespace if your organization does not use AD DS, if you needed to create a single namespace with more than 5,000 DFS folders but your organization did not support Windows Server 2008 mode, or if you wanted to use a failover cluster to increase availability.
You need to recommend a domain controller deployment strategy for Branch2 that meets the museum#39;s technical requirements.
What should you recommend for Branch2?
Deploy two writable domain controllers in ad.baldwinmuseumofscience. Configure both domain controllers as global catalog servers.
Deploy two read only domain controllers (RODCs) in ad.baldwin museum of science. Configure both RODCs as global catalog servers.
Deploy one writable domain controller in baldwinmuseumofscience.com and one writable domain controller in ad.baldwinmuseumofscience. Enable universal group membership caching.
Deploy one read only domain controller (RODC) in baldwinmuseumofscience.com and one writable domain controller in ad.baldwinmuseumofscience. Enable universal group membership caching.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd735489(WS.10).aspx
Read-only domain controllers (RODCs) do not introduce any significant new considerations for determining whether to make a branch domain controller a global catalog server. Global catalog placement generally requires planning unless you have a single-domain forest. In a single-domain forest, you can configure all domain controllers as global catalog servers without causing any additional replication or an increase in disk size or CPU usage.
However, only domain controllers that are designated as global catalog servers can respond to global catalog queries on the global catalog Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) port 3268. Designating all domain controllers as global catalog servers eliminates server or network capacity planning concerns about which domain controllers can respond to global catalog queries by applications or other domain controllers.
In a multiple-domain forest, deciding whether a domain controller should be a global catalog server takes extra planning. As a general rule, it is best to make branch-office domain controllers (including branch-office RODCs) be global catalog servers so that authentication-and, generally, any global catalog query-can be performed by using just the RODC. This comes, however, at the price of replicating the partial attribute set for objects from every domain in the forest to the branch office, which may be expensive in terms of network and disk usage if some domains have large amounts of users, computers, or groups with a high rate of updates.
If you determine that you cannot make the branch-office domain controller a global catalog server, you should enable universal group caching in that site. With universal group membership enabled, a domain controller must connect to a global catalog server across a wide area network (WAN) link only for initial logons in the site.
Thereafter, universal group membership can be checked from a local cache.
You need to recommend a solution for controlling access to the Internet. The solution must meet the museum#39;s security policy.

Deploy Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010, and then migrate Share1 to a new document library. Modify the blocked file types.
Deploy Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010, and then migrate Share1 to a new document library. Enable versioning for the library.
Possible answers are B amp; D, the consensus is B as it doesn't require the investment in other technology and one of your requirements is to minimize costs
Sharepoint versioning Versioning is the method by which successive iterations of a document are numbered and saved.
The default versioning control for a document library depends on the site collection template. However, you can configure versioning control for a document library depending on your particular requirements. Each document library can have a different versioning control that best suits the kind of documents in the library. SharePoint Foundation 2010 has three versioning options:
No versioning Specifies that no previous versions of documents are saved. When versioning is not being used, previous versions of documents are not retrievable, and document history is also not retained because comments that accompany each iteration of a document are not saved. Use this option on document libraries that contain unimportant content or content that will never change.
Create major versions Specifies that numbered versions of documents are be retained by using a simple versioning scheme (such as 1, 2, 3). To control the effect on storage space, you can specify how many previous versions to keep, counting back from the current version.
In major versioning, every time a new version of a document is saved, all users who have permissions to the document library will be able to view the content. Use this option when you do not want to differentiate between draft versions of documents and published versions. For example, in a document library that is used by a workgroup in an organization, major versioning is a good choice if everyone on the team must be able to view all iterations of each document.
Create major and minor (draft) versions Specifies that numbered versions of documents are retained by using a major and minor versioning scheme (such as 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 2.1). Versions ending in .0 are major versions and versions ending with non-zero extensions are minor versions. Previous major and minor versions of documents are saved together with current versions. To control the effect on storage space, you can specify how many previous major versions to keep, counting back from the current version. You can also specify how many major versions being kept should include their respective minor versions. For example, if you specify that minor versions should be kept for two major versions and the current major version is 4.0, then all minor versions starting at 3.1 will be kept.
In major and minor versioning, any user who has read permissions can view major versions of documents. You can specify which users can also view minor versions. Typically, we recommend that you grant permissions to view and work with minor versions to the users who can edit items, and restrict users who have read permissions to viewing only major
Use major and minor versioning when you want to differentiate between published content that can be viewed by an audience and draft content that is not yet ready for publication.
For example, on a human resources Web site that describes organizational benefits, use major and minor versioning to restrict employees#39; access to benefits descriptions while the descriptions are being revised.
Configuring Volume Shadow Copy on Windows Server 2008 http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Configuring_Volume_Shadow_Copy_on_Windows_S erver_2008
Once shadow copy has been configured for volumes on the server, the next step is to learn how to access the previous version of files from client systems. This is achieved using a feature of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista called Previous Versions.
To access previous versions of a file on a client, navigate to the shared folder (or subfolder of a shared folder) or network drive using Start -gt; Network. Once the desired network drive or shared folder is visible, right click on it and select Restore Previous Versions (or just Previous Versions on Windows Vista). Once selected, the Properties dialog box will appear with the Previous Versions tab pre-selected as illustrated in the following figure:
There are a number of issues that need to be considered when implementing shadow copy for shared folders. First and foremost the shared folders which are to be shadowed need to be identified. Secondly, a location for the shadow to be stored must be allocated. This can reside either on the same volume as the shared folders, or on a completely different volume or disk drive. Even before any data is shadowed, the shadow copy system requires 300MB of available space. The total amount of space required will depend on the size of the shared folder which is to be shadowed and the frequency and extent to which the files are likely to change (since shadow copy will only take new snapshots of files which have changed since the last snapshot). Finally, the time and frequency of the volume snapshots needs to be defined. By default, Shadow Copy performs a snapshot twice a day at 7:00am and 12:00pm.
Once the Shadow Copy system has been configured the shadow copy client needs to be set up on the systems of any users that are likely to need to be able to restore files in shared folders.
Using Computer Management to Enable and Configure Volume Shadow Copies
Shadow Copy is enabled on a per volume basis. Once configured on a volume, all shared
folders residing on that volume will automatically be shadowed. Shadow Copy can be configured either graphically using the Computer Management tool or via the command prompt. Command-line configuration of Shadow Copy will be covered in a later section of this chapter. This section will focus on Computer Management configuration.
The first step is to launch the Computer Management configuration tool (Start -gt; All Programs -gt; Administrative Tools -gt; Computer Management). Once invoked, select Storage -gt; Disk Management from the tree in the left panel to display the disk and volume information for the local system. In the graphical view, right click on a volume and select on Properties to launch the properties dialog. In the properties dialog, select the Shadow Copy tab to display the Shadow Copy properties as illustrated in the following figure:
The Select a volume section of the properties dialog lists the volumes present on the local system. Select the volume in this list for which Shadow Copy is to be enabled. With the volume selected click on the Settings button to display the following Shadow Copy Settings dialog box:
the Located on this volume specify the volume on which the shadow copies are to be stored. This can be either the current volume or a different volume on the system. The Details button displays free and total disk space information for the currently specified volume. Once a suitable volume for the shadow copies has been selected the maximum size to be made available for the shadow copies may be defined. This can either be set to Maximum size which will use all available space on the specified volume, or capped to a specific size (keeping in mind that a minimum of 300MB is required for the shadow storage volume even before any snapshots are taken). Shadow Copy uses a differential approach to backing up files in that only files that have changed since the last snapshot are copied. For certain files, Shadow Copy also only copies the part of the file that has changed, rather than the entire file. As such, it is not necessary to reserve 64 times the size of the volume to be copied since only parts of the volume will be copied with each snapshot.
Schedule the shadow copy snapshots by clicking on the Schedule… button. By default, Windows configures two snapshots each day (at 7:00am and 12:00pm respectively). To remove a currently defined snapshot, select it from the drop down list and click on Delete. To modify a run, select it from the drop down list, modify the settings in the lower section of the dialog and click on OK.
To specify additional schedules, click on the New button and specify the days and time of the snapshot. Note that snapshots can also be configured to occur at user logon, system startup and even when the system is idle.
In fact, Windows Server 2008 provides considerable flexibility in terms of scheduling shadow copies. It is important to keep in mind, however, that there are disadvantages to running a shadow copy too frequently.
Firstly, shadow copies are resource intensive tasks, especially on large volumes where many files are subject to frequent changes. Repeated snapshots during periods when the server is heavily utilized may well degrade overall system performance. Secondly, it is important to keep in mind that Shadow Copy retains the last 64 versions of a file.
Therefore, if a snapshot is run every hour, the oldest restore point available to a user will be approximately two and half days in the past. If, on the other hand, snapshots are taken twice a day, the user will have the luxury of restoring a file from a point as much as 32 days ago. It is important, therefore, to strike a balance between longevity and frequency.
The following screenshot illustrates the Shadow Copy scheduling dialog:
Once the schedules have been configured, click on OK to dismiss the scheduling dialog. Click OK once again in the Settings dialog to return to the Shadow Copy properties panel. At this point, the volume for which a schedule has been defined will have a small clock image superimposed over the volume icon and will indicate that 0 bytes of shadow copy storage have been used. The next step is to enable shadow copies on the volume by selecting the volume from the list and clicking on the Enable button. The volume in the list will update to display the date and time of the next scheduled copy and provide a summary of the current level of storage space used for the shadow copies.
To initiate a manual shadow copy now, or at any other time, simply select the volume to be copied from the list in the Shadow Copy properties panel and click on the Create Now button.
Restoring Shadow Copy Snapshots from Clients
As shown in the previous figure, the Previous Versions property page lists the previous versions of the shared folder that are available for restoration. A number of options are available for each shadow copy snapshot listed in the properties dialog. Open will open the
folder in Windows Explorer so that individual files and sub-folders can be viewed and copied. The Copy… button allows the snapshot of the folder and its contents to be copied to a different location. Finally, Restore… restores the folder and files to its state at the time of the currently selected shadow copy snapshot. As outlined in the warning dialog, this action cannot be undone once performed.


S2N Media produced this website that presents the multicultural history of the Connecticut River Valley in Massachusetts. Funded by the Ford Foundation, the site links college students together with people in the surrounding communities and provides a vehicle for students to conduct primary historical research and then present the results back to the public.
S2N advised STCC on this learning resource then designed and built out the sections surrounding the local historical themes with text, images, a timeline, interactive maps and more.
Our Plural History recognizes that U.S. society is constituted by disparate ethnic, racial, religious, linguistic, and cultural groups. So, in a basic sense, pluralism refers to a complex of values, beliefs, behaviors, customs and social forms that cannot be reduced to one. Pluralism implies something beyond simple variety, however. For American society, diversity is a given, but pluralism is a learned practice. Beyond the mere tolerance of difference, the practice of pluralism requires the active development of understanding across lines of difference — to purposefully set out to learn about others different from ourselves in order to overcome ignorance, stereotypes and the fears that underlie old patterns of division. Pluralism requires us to engage in a process of discovery and conversation that reveals both common understanding and real differences. We do not have to agree with each other, but we have to agree to live together.

The CEO of TAP, Christine Ourmières-Widener, will go to parliament on Wednesday to give explanations about the €500,000 compensation to former director Alexandra Reis.
The president of the Court of Auditors, José Tavares, announced on Tuesday that the institution would conduct an audit of TAP following the news that has come to light about the airline.
"We also have an audit planned on TAP," José Tavares said today at a hearing at parliament's Budget and Finance Committee.
The head of the Court of Auditors was responding to a question from social democrat MP Hugo Carneiro on whether the institution was planning an audit of TAP.
Tavares stressed that when faced with controversy the Court tends to stay on the sidelines, but "monitors, sees, hears and reads", with action planned in the institution's plan.
TAP CEO to explain about €500K pay off to ex-director
The case of the compensation of half a million euros paid to former secretary of state Alexandra Reis for her early departure from the board of TAP led to the resignation of the former minister of infrastructure and housing, Pedro Nuno Santos, and a reshuffle in the government.
An audit by the Inspectorate General of Finance into the TAP controversy is also currently underway, which Finance Minister Fernando Medina said on Tuesday will be made public when completed.
The chief executive of TAP, Christine Ourmières-Widener, will go to parliament on Wednesday to give explanations about the €500,000 compensation to former director Alexandra Reis, who was also president of NAV and secretary of state.

Why Should Entrepreneurs Learn Programming Language?
Why Should Entrepreneurs Learn Programming Languages?
In case you are wondering if learning a new language could be a new investment or it would be a complete waste of your time and energy, let us give you a few motivating numbers.
Website design is the best form of online advertisement you can choose for your business. It is as important as creating the right print ad in your local newspaper for attracting the attention of the local customer base or placing an ad in the national TV to garner the attention of a nationwide audience. You can always use websites just like your brand and gain the attention of the target audience, whether you are targeting a particular town, city or state.
The challenge with most entrepreneurs is the development process associated with the e-commerce site. Most business owners, who do not deal with website design, development and maintenance on a professional level, find it difficult to keep up with the process. Since they are not trained in coding or programming languages, it is quite an understandable issue. Even with the WYSIWYG website builders and the ready to use CMS engines, it is always better to know a few codes to customize the site and include new functions.
What are the popular ways entrepreneurs develop their sites?
There are three prominent options for website developers for creating a brand-new functioning website.
Using a CMS engine like WordPress to create the site. Use plug-ins to optimize the seller performances. WooCommerce is the leading ready to use WordPress plug-in for all e-commerce needs in 2018.
Use an advanced CMS engine like Joomla or Drupal that need programming/coding skills. Add modules through codes for enhanced website performance.
Use simple languages (take lessons) to develop a complete functioning application. This is a more rewarding process, and it also enables the development of a more customized and personalized website for business owners.
Leading ecommerce web development companies and consultancies always recommend the third step for future entrepreneurs and aspiring website owners.
Why should you invest in learning a new language?
At the moment, there are over 18.2 million programmers, coders and software developers across the globe. By the end of 2019, the numbers can reach a whopping 27 million. You can become a part of the website development boom, by learning the basics of some of the most popular coding languages and testing the waters with your website design.
Development of a business website needs to be near perfect. The process is demanding. It always pays off for the entrepreneur to know a little bit about the backend programming language and the front-end design codes. You can coordinate with your design team and explain your website function necessities to your developer team better when you can understand the technicalities of website development. Therefore, learning a coding language or a scripting language is in no way a waste of time for anyone. Even entrepreneurs can benefit from brushing up a programming language or two.
Which programming language should you focus on at the moment?
PHP contributes to the responsiveness and dynamicity of websites. Even Tumblr, Wikipedia and Facebook use this scripting language to power their backend tech.
Java allows the coders to create web-based applications and mobile applications. It is still the most popular server-side scripting language. It is a truly dynamic language that allows the applications to run almost anywhere. Zappos and Netflix rely on Java heavily to function.
C++ is the one leading system programming-oriented language that boosts performance and flexibility. It helps e-commerce sites to fulfill the design requirements along with enhanced speed. Official websites of Sony, JPMorgan Chase, and DIRECTV use C++ to power their sites.
Python is a popular programming language that enables quick setup and integration of your systems. It is a very efficient language that powers the USA Today, YouTube and Google sites.
Ruby is a simple open source language that developers use for its high productivity and performance. Its syntax is particularly elegant. Ruby is both easy to learn and write. Even now, GitHub, Ask.fm and Twitter use Ruby.
Over 17.7% of the programmers and developers use C, and about 3% of the programmers use PHP on a regular basis. To develop applications for business purposes, you can rely on Ruby on Rails. This is a Ruby framework that implements the web applications and makes Ruby a flexible yet reliable backend powerhouse for website development. Laravel is to PHP, as Ruby on Rails is to Ruby. It is a popular, open source and standard Ruby Framework. Thus, you do not have to sweat a lot to create a brand-new application with a full set of functionalities.
Learning more about programming and learning new scripting languages will broaden your horizons. Entrepreneurs can always do with a few added skills. To run a modern retail business online, you need to have a thorough understanding of a website's working and its database maintenance. You can build cool apps for yourself in the future, maintain your website and create new features every day according to the user demands. Always remember to include the latest version of CSS and HTML to learn the most basic website fundamentals.

The Coldest Night
By Robert Olmstead
Henry Childs is just seventeen when he falls into a love affair so intense it nearly destroys him. To escape the wrath of the young girl's father, Henry joins the Marines, arriving in Korea on the eve of the brutal battle of the Chosin Reservoir—the defining moment of the Korean War. There he confronts an enemy force far beyond the scope of his imagining, but the challenges he meets upon his return home, scarred and haunted, are greater by far.
From the steamy streets of New Orleans to the bone-chilling Korean landscape, award-winning author Robert Olmstead takes us into one of the most physically challenging battles in history and, with just as much intensity, into an electrifying, all-consuming love affair.
Robert Olmstead
Editors' Pick for Amazon's Best of 2012 list
Publishers Weekly Best Books of the Year
Kirkus Reviews Top 25 Fiction Books of 2012
"The no-rush gait, the unadorned yet unambiguous description, the resonant alliteration . . . This is the kind of sentence that warms The Coldest Night and makes you wonder if Olmstead was meant to be a poet. But Olmstead is a novelist, and a very good one . . . It's his depiction of war's less monstrous aspects—the continuous repositioning of troops and reshuffling of strongholds, the ceaseless anticipation of surprise attacks, the unmitigated exhaustion—that steadily unsettles . . . These lines lend a humanity to war that descriptions of guts and gore alone cannot."—The New York Times Book Review
"There are very few living American writers it would be fair to pair up with Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison in a review. Robert Olmstead, however, brings enough poetic oomph to his battlefield renderings to manage just fine . . . Put Olmstead on a battlefield and stand back. The writing is powerful and the imagery stark. Readers will find that the forgotten war roars back to life again in the pages of Olmstead's excellent novel."—The Christian Science Monitor
"The Coldest Night is riveting, thoughtful and—in the large section set in Korea—harrowing . . . Olmstead is an immensely gifted stylist, his prose capable of conveying the magic and passion of first love as well as the ferocity of battle. He also has a knack for imagery as memorable as it is unexpected . . . Few write as powerfully or as realistically as Olmstead about the way war makes a boy grow up far too fast."—The Washington Post
"Working-class boy meets rich girl, and forbidden passion flares, in this thought-provoking, unabashedly romantic novel set in the 1950s."—O, The Oprah Magazine
"Robert Olmstead's The Coldest Night is an unusual treat in this era of formulaic airport paperbacks, lightly edited Internet releases and over-hyped pop fiction. It's not just a standout in terms of plot, character development and effective use of language; the reader immediately marvels that this is literature, in addition to being a great book."—The Virginian-Pilot
"Robert Olmstead writes shellshocked prose with cadences that sound like early Hemingway . . . [The Coldest Night] has the courage of its convictions, and its descriptions of war and its aftermath are frighteningly credible."—The Columbus Dispatch
"Crafted to captivate . . . Robert Olmstead's eighth novel, The Coldest Night, mesmerizes . . . Its diction thrills with the splendor of a clear refrain sung by a chorale of swaying seraphim."—The Courier-Journal
"Breathtaking . . . Henry Childs' unforgettable first love and trial-by-combat in one of the Korean War's most harrowing battles are captured in revelatory language—and implanted in a tale of riveting suspense."—Barnes & Noble Review
"Robert Olmstead, author of the national bestseller Coal Black Horse, delivers another work of prose with language so painstaking and exact it reads more like poetry. The Coldest Night is a treasure . . . His descriptions of nature are lush and bountiful, lending a measure of beauty to even the most forbidding of landscapes . . . Olmstead weds the nature of armed aggression to the nature of man without apology, even with compassion, seeking only understanding, which, during our second decade of continuous war, is no insignificant goal."—BookPage
"A war story, a love story, a coming-of-age story—it's a simple theme spun into a novel heartbreaking in its stark and stunning prose . . . This is the kind of war novel I love . . . Novels about the Korean War are few and far between, and this is a strong offering in that category. Recommended."—Historical Novels Review
"Olmstead writes with ferocious economy . . . The book's continuities are a deep pleasure: a near-mystical regard for horses, for mothers, for weapons—all wrapped in a kind of elegiac masculinity. Olmstead has some of the Cormac McCarthy penchant for mixing tenderness into his terror."—The Cleveland Plain Dealer
"An unflinchingly realistic, yet artistic, condemnation of war. Disparate backgrounds and desperate times are a seductive combination. Olmstead makes good use of them, and what ultimately distinguishes his exceptional work from more pedestrian literature is his elegant prose. 'Prosody'—the study of the art of versification—is a word that Henry may not have recognized, but readers of The Coldest Night will not have to consult a dictionary for its definition; Olmstead's writing demonstrates its meaning perfectly."—BookBrowse
"[An] elegiac, gritty coming-of-age novel . . . Despite the narrative's darkening vision ("The Lord is a man of war," says Henry), enough redemption rescues Olmstead's powerful, desolate, and well-crafted novel from becoming oppressively bleak."—Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Olmstead (Coal Black Horse) has a spare, direct style that is most effective in the brilliant, engrossing combat descriptions and ironic marine banter."—Library Journal
"It's extremes that rivet us in Olmstead's searing seventh novel: the heaven of first love; the hell of the battlefield . . . Olmstead's extraordinary language gives us new eyes. An exceptionally fine study of love, war and the double-edged role of memory, which can both sustain and destroy. Prize-winning material."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"Olmstead employs different authorial voices to shape the story. At times the tone is mythic, at times surreal . . . The Coldest Night is powerful, and often beautiful, storytelling."—Booklist

"Spark Cleantech Accelerator" now accepting applications for inaugural cohort
on December 08 th, 2021
By Tom Ballard, Chief Alliance Officer, PYA
Applications for the first cohort in the new, Knoxville-based "Spark Cleantech Accelerator" are now open.
The announcement was made by John Bruck, Director of the University of Tennessee's (UT) Spark Innovation Center, during yesterday's eighth annual "Opportunities in Energy" event hosted by the Tennessee Advanced Energy Business Council (TAEBC). He was a participant on a panel that also featured Tricia Martinez, Managing Director of the "Techstars Industries of the Future Accelerator," and Dan Miller, Program Lead for the "Innovation Crossroads" program operated by Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
John Bruck
Collectively, the participation of the three highlighted the emergence of Knoxville and Oak Ridge as the only location in America to host three high-profile, energy-focused business accelerators. The newest addition – the "Spark Cleantech Accelerator" – is supported by a combination of strategic partners including the City of Knoxville, UT, UT Research Park at Cherokee Farm, Tennessee Valley Authority, TAEBC, and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
As noted in this June 2021 teknovation.biz article, the Spark Innovation Center is a partner in the "Midwest Regional Innovation Partnership" that is also comprised of the Clean Energy Trust, Centrepolis Accelerator at Lawrence Technological University, and mHUB. The group secured a $900,000 award under DOE's "Energy Program for Innovation Clusters" program, and a portion of the federal dollars will be targeted for the local accelerator that is being supplemented by the regional partners.
Tricia Martinez
During the virtual event, Martinez also announced that the start of the "Techstars Industries of the Future Accelerator" has been delayed by one month – now beginning February 21 – to allow for the renovation of dedicated space for Techstars on Gay Street. It is actually in a building that houses the Knoxville Utilities Board (KUB) and, for old timers like me, was the former home of the now long-closed Miller's Department Store. She thanked KUB, the UT Research Foundation, and the Knoxville Chamber for helping make the space a reality.
Miller told attendees that vetting is currently underway for the sixth cohort of the "Innovation Crossroads" program which brings early stage but high-potential, energy-focused start-ups to the region for two years.
For the "Spark Cleantech Accelerator," the target is also early stage, high-growth potential companies that aid in the development of decarbonization and other technology solutions by targeting the climate crisis while simultaneously supporting Tennessee's advanced energy and circular economies. Applications are open through March 11 (click here), and the first cohort of the accelerator will begin in June.
Participants will be provided co-working space in the recently renamed Institute for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing at the UT Research Park, an equity-free stipend, and access to prototyping facilities at UT, Knoxville to help accelerate the participants' progress during a three-month period. Additionally, entrepreneurs will have access to investor and mentor networks with cleantech industry expertise and the opportunity to participate in events held by Spark's regional partners including the Clean Energy Trust. This comprehensive set of services will assist in participants' commercialization of their technologies in Tennessee and throughout the Midwest.
Participating companies will be encouraged to consider relocating permanently to Knoxville, which was recently ranked as the #16 cleantech hub in the country, according to venture firm Saoradh Enterprise Partners. That opportunity no doubt helped attract support from the community.
"The City of Knoxville is proud to host and support the newest accelerator in East Tennessee's rapidly growing start-up scene," Mayor Indya Kincannon said. "Supporting breakthrough clean energy technologies with accelerator programs is an important component of growing our innovation economy, retaining top talent, and asserting Knoxville's leadership role as a clean-tech hub. The City welcomes opportunities to engage with Spark innovators to help meet my administration's goal of reducing emissions 80 percent across the community by 2050."

Hay, corn, roots, hemp, flax, apples, wool and wood.
Saying, "'Tis mine, my children's and my name's.
How sweet the west wind sounds in my own trees!
How graceful climb those shadows on my hill!
And strangers, fond as they, their furrows plough.
And misty lowland, where to go for peat.
The land is well,–lies fairly to the south.
Him to his land, a lump of mould the more.
But where are old men?
Such have I never seen.
Fled like the flood's foam.
Like lust in the chill of the grave.


One of the great things about books on design is that they themselves are often well designed. Above the Fold is no exception; boasting over 250 glossy, luxurious pages, filled with great imagery, quality typography, and considered, controlled layout. Read on for my thoughts on the book.
Brian Miller, the man behind the book, has generously handed over two copies for Webdesigntuts+ readers!
Author Brian Miller readily admits that when first embarking upon Above the Fold he had no clear objective in mind. A chat with friend Jeff Kroll forced him back to the drawing board, to consider the audience and the essential purpose of the book.
Amusingly, this book performs that very role for us as designers. It lays out perimeter fences, fundamental guides within which we can practice our creativity.
If you're just starting out in the industry, reading Above the Fold will give you a solid foundation in all aspects of the web design process. If you're more experienced, keep this book close at hand, dip in occasionally to refresh your knowledge, and lavish in the production quality.
It's easy to use this as a reference guide, each section is digestible in its own right, but the overal structure is deceptively cunning. The whole book is split into three distinct areas, each one confronting a particular stage in a web design project: Design & Typography, Planning & Usability, and Business value. In itself nothing ground-breaking, but Brian synchronises each stage with a player in the process: Designer, User, and Client.
Differing motives and priorities often cause differing (sometimes conflicting) perspectives on a web project, and catering for everyone's interests can be very challenging. Above the Fold helps you, as a designer, step back and view web design objectively.
I'm not really sure where to take this review now. Typically I might list the key subjects covered, or noteworthy chapters, but there's just too much to discuss in this case! There genuinely is something for everyone here. Design theory, practice, wireframing, typographical concepts, imagery, working with grids, conversion, online marketing, SEO - I'll stop there.
It's an all-encompassing view of the web design process, and all topics are covered from the ground up. Not neccessarily to advanced levels, but the fundamentals are discussed thoroughly. Even if you think you know it all, you need the basics in order to avoid those nasty bad habits forming.
The key to this book is the content. It's no coffee table idle flick-through, it has a truly valuable message. But Brian has recognized the appeal of good design (his market is, after all, designers) and the finished product is irresistable.
Informative literature (especially when printed) often crams its pages with details - Above the Fold however, practices what it preaches. The typography, the grid-based layout, the white space, the intermittent colored pages, the headings, the screenshots - they all make for an aesthetically satisfying read.
There are more crucial parts of the Above the Fold branding, including the promotional site, the blog, and the accompanying iPad app.
Check them out, they each add further to the rich experience this book offers. It's quite simply a great design publication, and it should be on your shelf.

Sterling Gold: Bowen the Cowboys' saviour
Wed 27 Jul 2011, 09:15 AM
When Johnathan Thurston hit the deck in the 60th minute of Origin III there was a collective gasp of dismay throughout the whole of Queensland.
It was most audible however in the north, with Cowboys supporters immediately taking on board the probable ramifications of losing their star playmaker for the season.
Even their staunchest fan would have grave doubts as to the club's chances of finally securing their first premiership title without Thurston on board. Quite simply he is the ace in their pack.
Things looked particularly grim when he emerged from the sheds in a wheelchair, sucking profusely on pain-killers, to be a part of the Maroon's post-match celebrations.
Fortunately, despite initial fears of a serious ACL injury, the news was far better than expected with a diagnosis of up to six weeks on the sidelines and a return for finals football.
North Queensland fans could relax and rest comfortably.
Or could they?
At that stage their side was highly-placed in the top four on 24 points with just the Storm, Sea Eagles and Dragons sitting above them. They were well on course for a finals berth with a maximum of three further victories ensuring them a coveted top-eight finish.
A continuation of this year's good form would see that achieved easily, but adversity often brings to mind bitter memories and lingering doubt.
The last three seasons have been a nightmare for Cowboy fans with their team finishing 15th, 12th and 15th on the back of campaigns that lacked any consistency or enthusiasm. They won a total of just 21 matches from 72 played.
Significantly, before Johnathan's injury going into round 18, the club had tasted success just seven times from 27 games in his absence.
Now there is no doubt that this year's North Queensland is a different animal with a stronger and more experienced playing group and a new-found consistency and belief. Still, any champion rowing eights will tell you that without the little guy sitting up front steering the ship and setting the right tempo they are in trouble. Maybe "rudderless" is an apt description.
Enter the magical Matt Bowen.
From the opening minute against Newcastle it was obvious that the diminutive full-back was taking control and stepping into the breach left by his usual partner in crime.
That has made the job so much easier for rookie halves Ray Thompson, Michael Morgan and Ben Jones who have not had to take on the onerous task of guiding the team around the park. They would have been well aware that if they had struggled in that area they would have borne the brunt of the resulting criticism.
The team performance against Newcastle wasn't great but good enough to get the points.
The following week they were competitive but beaten by a Wests Tigers outfit who found their dangerous rhythm in the final 40 minutes.
Last Saturday the side was in trouble against the Titans but Bowen took control.
He set up tries, kicked goals, evaded defenders and forced line drop-outs to inspire the Cowboys to another vital two competition points. When it comes to the finals, two wins down, only one to go.
After trailing at the break, Matt provided the necessary momentum with an early second-half grubber which drew an error from Steve Michaels. Try to Ashley Graham.
< A http: www.nrl.com ??>
He finished proceedings by throwing the key ball to initiate a breathtaking left side raid that stretched 60 metres. Try to Gavin Cooper.
After a horror run with knee injuries there is no doubt that he is back to his best and has lost little of his blinding speed. Any doubt about regaining his zip was definitely eradicated by his superb try-saving tackle on noted speedster David Mead.
Whilst the return of Thurston will be a massive boost on the eve of the quarter-finals, the encouraging sign for North Queensland fans is that he and Bowen are now receiving solid support from the rest of the playing group.
Recruiting thorough professionals in Dallas Johnston, Brent Tate and Glenn Hall has been particularly significant. Along with being good citizens, they provide 449 NRL games of first-grade experience and are all premiership-winning players.
After such a tough road back from knee surgery it was very gratifying to see Tate crash over for his first try for his new club.
The Cowboys also boast the best young forward in the game in the dynamic Tariq Sims. The Broncos must be kicking themselves that they ever allowed this tyro to head north.
He was again ruthless in defence against the Gold Coast, snapping back the head of Luke Bailey on a couple of occasions and forcing a crucial turnover from Steve Michaels after a heavy collision.
In what is a reversal of the usual roles, Tariq appears to have drawn out the best football from big brother Ashton.
Throw in consistent efforts from Matt Scott, James Tamou, Gavin Cooper, Aaron Payne, wingers Ash Graham and Kalifa Fai Fai Loa and skilful interchange James Segeyaro and it is no fluke that they occupy such a lofty position on the ladder.
This spot was in jeopardy when Johnathan Thurston was laid low. Along with Cameron Smith he is the most influential member of any team and the hole that either of these players leave when out is gigantic.
Fortunately for North Queensland, they have a saviour in Matt Bowen.

Kinnarodden je mys, který je nejsevernějším bodem pevninského Norska a nejsevernějším bodem pevninské Evropy. Kinnarodden leží na poloostrově Nordkinn asi 20 km od vsi Mehamn v kraji Troms a Finnmark.

Evropa dosahuje svým nejsevernějším pevninským bodem Kinnaroddenem  a je jen o pár minut jižněji než body Knivskjellodden a Nordkapp, které leží na ostrově Magerøya asi 80 km na západ od Kinnarodden. Právě Nordkapp je často považován za nejsevernější bod pevninské Evropy, ale skutečnost, že leží na ostrově, mu titul odnímá.

Kinnarodden je od severního pólu vzdálen asi 2106,6 km, Nordkapp přibližně o 6 km méně.

V ostrém kontrastu k turisticky poměrně rušnému Nordkappu je Kinnarodden poněkud osamělé místo. Dosáhnout se dá po celodenní pěší túře z Menhamnu (přibližně 23 km náročným terénem) a celý další den je potřeba počítat na cestu zpět. Turistické kanceláře však na toto místo organizují také řadu lodních výletů.

Convicted sex offender running for VA House of Delegates seat
By Heather Sullivan | November 3, 2017 at 3:51 PM EDT - Updated August 15 at 11:16 PM
(WWBT) - A convicted sex offender from Southwest Virginia is running for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates.
Independent Kenneth Browning is able to run for a delegate seat representing Smythe, Wythe, and Carroll counties because of Governor McAuliffe's 2016 efforts to restore the voting rights of felons.
Back in November 2008, Browning was convicted of using a computer to facilitate child sex offenses. He is listed on the Virginia State Police sex offender database.
Browning can run for public office because his rights were restored by Governor McAuliffe in December. The registrar's office shows he did collect the required number of signatures to qualify for the ballot.
"Under this new process that the current governor has put in place, it is almost immediately that they can get their rights restored once they complete their probation," said Brian Patton, Russell County Commonwealth's Attorney.
Browning says he was falsely accused of the crime he was convicted of and now says he won't comment until after the election.
