Prior to its destruction in the Korean War , it was the largest and most important center of Buddhist worship in that city . Though it is unknown when the temple was founded , popular tales date it to the end of the Goguryeo kingdom . The temple was completely rebuilt under the Joseon dynasty . Under the Japanese occupation of Korea , the temple became a major tourist site in Pyongyang it was renowned for its beautiful riverside location and many cherry trees . In the 1920s it again underwent an extensive restoration funded by the Japanese government , who also officially changed its name to its Japanese pronunciation , `` Eimei-ji '' . During that time , the temple was also confiscated from by the government , and given for use as a headquarters for the Rinzai sect of Japanese Zen Buddhism . The Rinzai monks were tasked with converting the citizens away from traditional Korean Buddhism as part of a government program to replace the old Korean culture with that of modern Japan . The historic temple was destroyed during the U.S. carpet bombings of Pyongyang during the Korean War . The only building of the temple now standing is Pubyŏk Pavilion , a scenic lookout which was reconstructed after the war and was known for its beautiful views of the Taedong River ; its stone pagoda and octagonal shrine also survived the bombings , and all three are registered as National Treasures of North Korea . The temple ran the Pobun Hermitage , located on Mt. Ryongak in Mangyŏngdae-guyŏk . In 2012 the Korean Central News Agency reported the `` reconfirmation '' of Lair of King Tongmyong 's Unicorn , 200 m from the Yongmyong Temple The discovery is credited to the History Institute of the DPRK , and the report states that `` Unicorn Lair '' is carved on a rock at the site . The report of the discovery also states this `` proves that Pyongyang was a capital city of Ancient Korea '' .

Zenith was an early partner with Microsoft , licensing all Microsoft languages for the Heath/Zenith 8-bit computers . Conversely , Microsoft programmers of the early 1980s did much of their work using Zenith Z-19 and Z-29 CRT display terminals hooked to central mainframe computers . The first Heathkit H8 computer , sold in kit form , was built on an Intel 8080 processor . It ran K7 audio-tape software , punched tape software ( with puncher/reader H10 ) and HDOS ( Heath Disk Operating System ) software on 5 1/4 '' hard-sectored floppy disks . The CP/M operating system was adapted to all Heath/Zenith computers , in 1979 . Next , the early Heath/Zenith computers ( H88/H89 and Z-89 ) were based on the Z80 processors and ran either HDOS or CP/M operating systems . ZDS 's first computers were preassembled versions of Heathkit computers . As subsidiary of a television company , ZDS could obtain monitors at cost . It continued selling computers in kit form -- the equivalent of the ZDS Z-150 IBM PC compatible was the Heathkit H-150 , for example -- and opened more Heathkit Electronic Centers while also selling through Zenith dealers and seeking corporate customers . The company also continued Heath 's practice of publishing unusually clear product documentation , distributing schematics , and selling the source code to HDOS and other software in printed form . ZDS introduced the Z-100 , its first computer not based on a kit design and second 16-bit product after the H11 minicomputer , in early 1982 . Targeted for professionals , it had an S-100 bus , high performance color graphics , an 8-bit Z80 and an 8088 processor . It ran Z-DOS , an OEM version close to MS-DOS , but was not yet the `` PC compatible '' machine ( in peculiar , the floppy - disks were not IBM-PC compatibles ) . Later machines ( Z-150 , Z-2xx , Z-3xx ... ) were PC compatible . ZDS avoided the retail market and focused on large customers , such as companies , universities , and government agencies ; an executive said , `` We 'd like to have -LSB- retailers -RSB- , but we do n't need them . '' The company stated in 1982 `` We have no expectations of being first or second in the desktop market '' , but in fiscal 1984 sold 16 % of the 37,000 computers the United States government purchased , second to IBM 's 27 % , and by 1985 was overall the second-largest PC-compatible company after Compaq . By 1985 ZDS 's revenue had grown to $ 352 million , and in March 1986 The New York Times called the division 's success one of Zenith 's `` proudest accomplishments '' amid the company 's losses in the television market against Japanese competition . In October 1983 , the United States Navy and Air Force awarded a $ 27 million computer contract to ZDS . In 1984 ZDS won a $ 100 million contract with the United States military for Tempest-shielded computers . In 1986 it won two other large contracts , one for portable computers for the Internal Revenue Service , and a $ 242 million contact -- the largest in history -- for 90,000 computers to the United States Department of Defense . In October 1989 , Zenith sold ZDS to the French company Groupe Bull for $ 635 million . Two key reasons for the ZDS/Groupe Bull merger with Packard Bell were the cost of repairs and cost of software upgrades for a large US government contract . ZDS lost a lot of money as a result of the US Air Force contract Desktop IV . In order to meet the price point for the contract , ZDS made very cheap computers with motherboards which were frequently defective out of the box and required on-site service , often by a third party which billed ZDS , to resolve the issue . The Air Force also insisted on making ZDS pay for the upgrade to Windows 95 on 200,000 of the machines since ZDS had agreed to provide software upgrades for the computers for free . Groupe Bull continued to sell personal computers under the Zenith Data Systems name until 1996 when ZDS merged with Packard Bell and NEC , creating the company Packard Bell NEC Inc. . Heath / Zenith pioneered the laptop computer market in 1985 , with `` lunchbox '' portable computer Z-171 , the first MS-DOS based small portable computer fit with two 5 `` 1/4 floppy disks and blue LCD screen , that was built for Heath / Zenith by Vadem Corp. under an OEM agreement , and purchased in large numbers by the US Internal Revenue Service . Next , in 1987 , followed the Intel 8088-based Zenith 181 and Zenith 183 , the latter being one of the very first laptops to be equipped with a hard disk . The follow-on SupersPORT was substantially larger and heavier , but provided much-improved performance through the use of the Intel 80286 processor . It was selected by the US Army and Navy in one of the first major government purchases of laptop computers . Later another version ( Zenith SupersPort SX ) used an Intel 80386 processor . The later MinisPORT was the only laptop to ever use the 2-inch floppy disk , developed for use in still video cameras . One unique feature of most Zenith PC-compatibles was the key combination , which would interrupt the running program and break into a machine-language monitor . This monitor PAM 8 program originated with the Heathkit H8 computer , included in ROM , allowed the user to trace or resume program execution , change machine settings , run diagnostic routines , or boot from a specific device . Later models of Zenith computers , laptops in particular , included a MACHINE.EXE program , which allowed the user to change hardware-specific settings from within other programs ( such as batch files ) . This amenity was highly advanced for its time , with standards like APM and ACPI providing similar functionality in modern systems . ZDS were well known in the UK for sponsoring the Full Members Cup , a football competition , for several years until its discontinuation in 1992 .

The Zuidtangent has been established in 2002 and was renamed R-net ( Randstad-net ) in 2011 when it became part of the eponymous regional service . Across the entire R-net network vehicles will be painted into the original Zuidtangent colour palette of dark grey and red . The two lines that formed the Zuidtangent network have been adopted by R-net without change and are still operated by Connexxion : Line 300 from Haarlem via Hoofddorp , Schiphol Airport and Amstelveen to Amsterdam-Zuidoost . Line 310 from Nieuw-Vennep via Hoofddorp and Schiphol Airport to Amsterdam Zuid . The Zuidtangent buses run on dedicated bus lanes from Haarlem to Schiphol Airport ( 25 km ; line 300 ) and from Nieuw-Vennep to Hoofddorp ( 5 km ; line 310 ) . They use normal roads and motorways for most of the route between Schiphol Airport and Amsterdam-Zuidoost . They have priority at road crossings throughout . The province of North Holland has announced an extension from Hoofddorp ( Beukenhorst ) to Uithoorn . An extension from Haarlem to IJmuiden is under construction . Buses such as the 197 operated by Connexion from Schiphol to Amsterdam city centre also use a dedicated bus road parallel to the A4 motorway between Schiphol and Osdorp .
Zadar
Zadar
Zadar ( -LSB- zâdar -RSB- ; see other names ) is the oldest continuously inhabited city in Croatia . It is situated on the Adriatic Sea , at the northwestern part of Ravni Kotari region . Zadar serves as the seat of Zadar County and the wider northern Dalmatian region . The city proper covers 25 km2 with a population of 75,082 in 2011 , making it the fifth largest city in the country . The area of present-day Zadar traces its earliest evidence of human life from the late Stone Age , while numerous settlements have been dated as early as the Neolithic . Before the Illyrians , the area was inhabited by an ancient Mediterranean people of a pre-Indo-European culture . Zadar traces its origin to its 4th-century BC founding as a settlement of the Illyrian tribe of Liburnians known as Iader . In 59 BC it was renamed Iadera when it became a Roman municipium , and in 48 BC , a Roman colonia . It was during the Roman rule that Zadar acquired the characteristics of a traditional Ancient Roman city with a regular road network , a public square ( forum ) , and an elevated capitolium with a temple . After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and the destruction of Salona by the Avars and Croats in 614 , Zadar became the capital of the Byzantine theme of Dalmatia in the 7th century . In the beginning of the 9th century , Zadar came under short Frankish rule , and was returned to the Byzantines by the Pax Nicephori in 812 . The first Croatian rulers gained control over the city in 10th century . In 1202 , Zadar was conquered and burned by the Republic of Venice , which was helped by the Crusaders . Croats again regained control over the city in 1358 , when it was given to the Croatian-Hungarian king Louis I . In 1409 , king Ladislaus I sold Zadar to the Venetians . When the Turks conquered the Zadar hinterland at the beginning of the 16th century , the town became an important stronghold , ensuring Venetian trade in the Adriatic , the administrative center of the Venetian territories in Dalmatia and a cultural center . During this time , many famous Croatian writers , such as Petar Zoranić , Brne Krnarutić , Juraj Baraković and Šime Budinić , wrote in the Croatian language . After the fall of Venice in 1797 , Zadar came under the Austrian rule until 1918 , except for the period of short-term French rule ( 1805 -- 1813 ) , still remaining the capital of Dalmatia . During the French rule , the first newspaper in the Croatian language , Il Regio Dalmata -- Kraglski Dalmatin , was published in Zadar ( 1806 -- 1810 ) . During the 19th century , Zadar was a center of the Croatian movement for cultural and national revival . With the 1920 Treaty of Rapallo Zadar fell under Italian rule , and after World War II , during which it was heavily destroyed by the Allies , it was brought back to Croatia whose armed forces defended it in October 1991 from the Serb rebels who aimed to capture it . Today , Zadar is a historical center of Dalmatia , Zadar County 's principal political , cultural , commercial , industrial , educational , and transportation centre . Zadar is also the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Zadar . Because of its rich heritage , Zadar is today one of the most popular Croatian tourist destinations , named `` entertainment center of the Adriatic '' by The Times and `` Croatia 's new capital of cool '' by the Guardian . In 2016 , Zadar was named `` Best European Destination '' by the Belgian portal after a three-week period of online voting and more than 288,000 cast votes .

Zombie_Zero
Zombie Zero
Zombie Zero is an attack vector where a cyber attacker utilized malware that was clandestinely embedded in new barcode readers which were manufactured overseas . It remains unknown if this attack was promulgated by organized crime or a nation state . Clearly there was significant planning and investment in order to design the malware , and then embed it into the hardware within the barcode scanner . Internet of things ( IoT ) devices may be similarly preinstalled with malware that can capture the network passwords and then open a backdoor to attackers . Given the high volume of these devices manufactured overseas high caution is to be exercised before placing these devices on corporate or government networks .

Yan_Emperor
Yan Emperor
The Yan Emperor or the Flame Emperor was a legendary ancient Chinese ruler in pre-dynastic times . Modern scholarship has identified the Sheep 's Head Mountains ( Yángtóu Shān ) just north of Baoji in Shaanxi Province as his homeland and territory . A long debate has existed over whether or not the Yan Emperor was the same person as the legendary Shennong . An academic conference held in China in 2004 achieved general consensus that the Yan Emperor and Shennong were the same person . Another possibility is that the term `` flame emperor '' was a title , held by dynastic succession of tribal lords , with Shennong being known as Yandi perhaps posthumously . Accordingly , the term `` flame emperors '' would be generally more correct . The succession of these flame emperors , from Shennong , the first Yan Emperor , until the time of the last Yan Emperor 's defeat by the Yellow Emperor , may have been some 500 years .

Zomba_Group_of_Companies
Zomba Group of Companies
The Zomba Group of Companies ( sometimes referred to as Zomba Music Group or just Zomba Group ) was a music group and division which was owned by and operated under Sony Music Entertainment . The division was renamed to Jive Label Group in 2009 and was placed under the RCA/Jive Label Group umbrella . In 2011 , the RCA/Jive Label Group was split in half . Multiple Jive Label Group artists were moved to Epic Records while others stayed with Jive as it moved under the RCA Music Group . In October 2011 Jive Records was shut down and their artists were moved to RCA Records . Founded independently in the mid-seventies by Clive Calder and Ralph Simon , the group has had interests in music release , distribution , production , publishing , equipment rental , recording studios , and artist management . Though the financial structure and annual revenue of Zomba during the company 's independent period was only known to CEO Clive Calder ( the company was registered privately offshore in the Dutch Antilles ) , Zomba was widely regarded as the most successful of the independent music companies . The group is perhaps best known for its role in developing some of the most popular forms of music , such as hip-hop in the 1980s , and the teen pop/boy band phenomenon in the late 1990s through their first record label Jive , though they have also had substantial activities in both the Christian and gospel music field . Calder and Simon both served as CEOs until 1990 when Calder bought out Simon 's share and ran the company himself until 2002 . In 2002 , BMG purchased the company and subsequently restructured the labels under the umbrella company Zomba Label Group , which was the most public face of the company . The label group served as a parent for many different labels including Jive , Silvertone , Volcano and LaFace .

Zhang_Da'an
Zhang Da'an
Zhang Da'an ( died 684 ) was an official of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty , serving as a chancellor during the reign of Emperor Gaozong . Zhang Da'an was one of the sons of Zhang Gongjin , a key follower of Li Shimin ( the eventual Emperor Taizong ) the Prince of Qin , a son and major general of Tang 's founder Emperor Gaozu , who supported Li Shimin in his rivalry with his brother Li Jiancheng the Crown Prince . When Li Shimin feared that Li Jiancheng was about to kill him in 626 , Zhang Gongjin was a major proponent of launching a preemptive strike against Li Jiancheng and another brother who supported Li Jiancheng , Li Yuanji the Prince of Qi , and when Li Shimin did so ( in an incident known as the Incident at Xuanwu Gate ) , Zhang defended Li Shimin 's mansion against counterattacks by Li Jiancheng 's and Li Yuanji 's followers after Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji . Zhang Gongjin died in 632 at the age of 38 and was eventually posthumously created the Duke of Tan and honored in one of the Portraits at Lingyan Pavilion , reserved for the greatest contributors to Emperor Taizong 's reign .
